Where does “Mondo“ come from? Etymology of English “World,“ Latin “Mundus,“ Halloween Story
👻 Watch “This is Halloween“ (Mundus Pateat) in Latin! 🎃
from the Nightmare Before Christmas, all whose songs we are doing entirely in Latin:
Enormous thanks to Stefano Vittori 🐌 who supplied the explanation of the Mundus Patet ritual of Roman religion; Stefano writes:
“Mundus patet is what is written on religious calendars in correspondence with three days during the year (August 24, October 5, November 8 ) when the mundus Cereris, a sacred well digged in the center of each town, is open by Ceres’ priest (the “cānus senex“ of the song). This well is placed in the exact crossing point of Cardo and Decumanus (the “quadrivium“ which the citizens of Cucurbs, Halloween Town, surround, “circumsistunt“). The well, representing both the universe (mundus, “world“), an introverted altar (the only altar that was inscribed in the inner part instead of the outer one), and an uterus, and consecrated to the Manes, gods of the underworld, once opened lets the souls of the dead to go beyond the limit between the world of the dead and that of the living.“
THE COSMIC ORIGIN OF A MUNDANE WORD
This topic was extensively researched, and may be verified at various sources, including:
