These holy days are on the same day every year on the solar calendar.
Day of Terror:
Day of Terror: Kemetic (ancient Egyptian) holy day. It is the day of creating misery and bringing terror into existence in conformity with the custm of what is in the year. (from the Cairo Calendar)
Day of Fortuna:
Sacred Day to Fortuna: Roman holy day. June 11 is the holy day of Fortuna, while June 24 is the Festival of Fortuna. Romans made offerings to Fortuna, first-born daughter of Jupiter and Goddess of fortune, women, and fertility, in hopes that she would grant them luck. In addition to offerings of material goods, Romans could make offerings to Fortuna through their actions, such as helping the poor or unfortunate. Because Fortuna had a capricious and unpredicatable nature, these offerings of good works could result in Fortuna treating you less cruelly when she turns bad fortune to you.
Rites of Matralia:
Rites of Matralia: Roman holy day.

Day 2
The Celtic calendar started out as a moon calendar, but was aligned with the solar year during antiquity. Robert Graves proposed the Celtic tree calendar described here. While widely used by Neo-Pagans, many critics dispute the authenticity. The Beth-Luis-Nion calendar (the one used here) starts with New Year on the Winter Solstice. The Beth-Luis-Faern calendar starts with New Year on Samhain.
Each Celtic tree month (or moon) is named for a Celtic Ogham letter (first line above) and a tree (second line above). All of the Celtic months also had additional folk names (folk names for this month listed below).

Roman information
a.d. III Id. Ivn.
3 days before the Ides of June
Month: Ivnivs or Junius
The a.d. III Id. designation means ante diem or three “days before” the Ides (Full Moon) of the month. When counting days, the Romans included both the start and end day (in modern Western culture, we skip the start day). When the Romans switched to a solar calendar, they continued to use the lunar day names.
The Roman month of Junius is named for Juno. June was sacred to Juno, Roman Queen Goddess.
The earliest Roman months were lunar. According to Roman mythology, the ten month solar calendar aligned to the vernal equinox was introduced by Romulus, the founder of Rome, around 753 BCE. In Romulus’ calendar, June (the fourth month) had 30 days. Numa Pompilius, the second of the seven traditional kings of Rome, added two more months, for a 12 month year. In Numa’s calendar, June had 29 days. Gaius Julius Caesar, as Pontifex Maximus (supreme bridge-builder, a religious title), reorganized the calendar on the first day of 45 BCE. In Caesar’s calendar (the Julian Calendar), June had 30 days. Caesar’s calendar was calculated by Sosigenes, an Egyptian astrologer/astronomer. In 8 BCE, Augustus Caesar fixed errors by pontiffs after Julius’ death and made other minor modifications, resulting in the modern Western calendar. The modern Gregorian Calendar, named for Roman Catholic Pope Gregory the Thirteenth, was a realignment in 1582.
