Disciplina
In Roman mythology, Disciplina was a minor deity and the personification of discipline.〔Eileen Holland, ''Holland's Grimoire of Magickal Correspondences: A Ritual Handbook'', 2005, Career Press, 307 pages ISBN 1-56414-831-9.〕 The word ''disciplina'' itself, a Latin noun, is multi-faceted in meaning; it refers to education and training, self-control and determination, knowledge in a field of study, and an orderly way of life. The goddess embodied these qualities for her worshippers. She was commonly worshipped by imperial Roman soldiers, particularly those who lived along the borders of the Roman Empire;〔Paul Erdkamp, ''A Companion to the Roman Army'', 2007, Blackwell Publishing, 600 pages ISBN 1-4051-2153-X〕 altars to her have been found in Great Britain and North Africa. The fort of Cilurnum along Hadrian's Wall was dedicated to the goddess Disciplina, as witnessed by an extant dedicatory inscription on a stone altar found in 1978.〔("The epigraphy of Cilurnum" )〕 Her chief virtues were ''frugalitas, severitas'' and ''fidelis''—frugality, sternness, and faithfulness. In worshiping Disciplina, a soldier became frugal in every way: with money, with energy and actions. The virtue of ''severitas'' was shown in his focused, determined, not easily dissuaded, and decisive behavior. He was faithful to his unit, his army, the officers and the Roman people.
