According to the etymology, the word occasion comes from the word occasio, a very old Latin language that defines this term as the ideal moment or the possibility that appears at a certain moment to do some activity. In Roman history, occasion has to do with Opportunity, a name that a goddess bears and physically is a woman with long hair that covers her face and has large wings. In addition, this goddess of Roman mythology carries a knife in one of her hands and a pair of wings on her feet, she is sitting on something that looks like a wheel and pretends to be moving.
The Roman figure, according to history symbolizes all those occasions that were wasted in life, it was said that if it appeared it was because the ideal moments to grasp an opportunity were running out. In addition, there was no way to catch her since she could not be grasped because her hair went forward and not back, the knife she carried in her hands means that anyone she touched could cut her bonds, pursue opportunities and take advantage of them. Many are the sayings that are linked to the goddess Opportunity, some are: "The occasion has no hair on the neck" this means that every good opportunity must be taken advantage of before it is too late.
