Mens/Lindisfarne Day/Egyptian Day
Pagan Book of Days - June 8
The old Roman festival of consciousness, personified as the goddess Mens, the mind, is intended to remind us that our consciousness makes us human, and so we should always act consciously. It is celebrated by Odinists as Lindisfarne Day, commemorating the first Viking raid in Britain. This day is also a weather marker:
If on the eighth of June it rain,
It foretells a wet harvest, men sain.
