Pritice of high standing among the Saxons. His image was prayed to for victo ry. On the third day after eaeh succeeding sun worship .the old Saxons spent hours- invoking the blessings of Woden.' ! - Thbr was god of the chase and was represented as being seated on a couch of skins with 12 stars over his head and a sceptre in his hand. Thursday or 44 Thor's day v was the day Thor was worshipped. ; Frigga, from whom Kddaj is de rived, was either a god ojr a god dess, according to time andj coun try. As a m m he was si! great hunter and warior, alwa3-s I repre sented with a drawn s'word iu one hand and a bow in the other. In the Scandinavian countries Krigga was called the ''Venus of the North, " and the sixth day of the week was consecrated to her wor ship. -- Saturday is usually said to-have taken its name from Saturn, and to literally mean " Saturn's Dav." Saturn, in mythology, is one of the oldest' and principal deities. The t-eventh day of the .week-; was re served for his worship. As a Saxon deviuity Sater occupies a similar position. He was represented as a thin-vis, iged, long-haired indivi dual whose looks bespoke one thor oughly wretched. I In looking up the peculiar names given to ea!i of the 1'2 months of the year, it becomes necessary for us to go back to the time of the old Iloman., who have imposed upon us a set ot "names for the months equally as absurd as those the Norsemen, the Scandinavians and Saxons applied to ;the days of the week. January. is from Janus, the god of doors and gates;' his ..month opened the year; some say that lie was two-faced and could look back on the past year and forward to the coming. ! February is from -'VV'o, to purify, j j March was originally the first month of the year, and jnamed for Mars, the god of war. j April is from "yfvVe, to open, and is so called beeausej it is the month t)f opening buds.
