In ancient Roman religion and myth, Janus is the god of beginnings and transitions,and thereby of gates, doors, doorways, passages and endings. He is usually depicted as having two faces, since he looks to the future and to the past. The Romans named the month of January (Ianuarius) in his honor.
Janus is an inner satellite (moon) of Saturn. It is also known as Saturn X (Roman numeral X = 10).
