Saturn, the wise old man

Saturn is the ancient deity of the harvest and agriculture, symbolizes the passage of time as well as the cycle of life, death, and renewal of all things, which is why he was venerated and even confused with a God of time.

Saturn or Saturnus was one of the oldest gods of the European pantheon, venerated and respected by men as the god of harvests and agriculture, who also taught men the art and work of being farmers during the first eras of the humanity. After the rebellion of his sons against him (the gods of Olympus), Saturn was reduced to the condition of wandering around the world as a mere mortal, then he took refuge in Lazio (Rome) where he imposed order among men and gave them The first laws, was later honored and received by Janus, the two-headed god and guardian of the roads who created the Saturnales, the annual feasts commemorating the reign of Saturn during the golden age.

Later the sixth planet of the solar system receives its name of Saturn, its characteristic color ivory and its gigantic golden rings allude to the reign of the God during the golden age of the man. Saturn is the ruling planet of the astrological sign of Capricorn, is the planet of discipline, tranquility, silence and calm after the storm. He is also the planet of renewal and reincarnation.
