Summary:
Zeno identifies certain heavenly mysteries with certain seasons. Winter is a time of sorrow when sins, eternal death and idolatry can be contemplated. Spring is when new life is breathed into the church. Summer is associated with devotion to those in heaven, and desire and prayers for heaven. Autumn is associated with martyrdom: the blood of the martyrs is poured out just as grapes are harvested to make wine in this season.
Summary: Frances Trzeciak.
