Sabbat Sunday – At the most literal of definitions, we have:
- A day of rest, and
- The Day of the Sun.
Latin Sabbatum (literally a day or rest, religious connotations came later), Ancient Greek σάββατον (sábbaton),
from Hebrew שַׁבָּת (shabát,), from Wicca (sabbat).
Originally ‘a day of rest’; for most religions it is a day of fasts, of don’ts and other obligations.
For others it is a day of feast and celebration of the cycles of the earth and her peoples, and that is why I prefer Sabbat.
I prefer celebration to deprivation (I always fast on Mondays). This day of the sun awaits, and I’m off to enjoy every minute of it.
Mañana y’all
