August

Sign up for free on the right, get access to the members area including past shows

Once known as ‘Sextilis’, as it was the sixth month of the Roman year (from March). The month was then given the name of ‘Augustus’ in 8 BC, later changed to ‘August’ and is said to derive from honouring the Roman Emperor ‘Augustus Caesar’. As part of the seasonal calendar August is the time of the ‘Corn Moon’ according to Pagan beliefs. August has also been known as:

_Oostmaand’ (Harvest month) - Old Dutch

‘Weod-monath’ (Weed month, vegetation month) - Old Saxon

This is the first month of ‘Lammas’ (August - October), commencing on August 1, a time of harvest before the winter onset of ‘Samhain’ (beginning in November). The first day of August was a date for the Druid festival of ‘Lughnasadh’, dedicated to the ‘God Lug’ with celebratory dances which evidence suggests reflected the everyday activities such as cutting the corn, ploughing and weaving. The baking of bread, on August 1, made from the first flour after the first harvest, was used in the ‘Hlaef-mas’, made into the ‘Mass loaf’ as a central part of the Druid ceremonies.
