Janus

The ancient Roman God, associated with doorways, choices, and transitions// He looks to the future and the past.
As a God of motion he looks for passages, causes actions to start and presides over all beginnings.
He is shown having two faces looking in opposite directions, regarding what is behind while simultaneously looking towards what lies ahead. Representative of contemplation on the happenings of an old year while looking forward to the new. The month of January was named after Janus because the month represents new beginnings, it is the doorway month into the new year where anything is possible should we choose to create or take opportunities.
