The Phrygians of central Turkey called him Attis. According to tradition, Attis died of self-inflicted wounds at the vernal equinox and possibly was resurrected three days later. At his own wedding, Attis was forced to castrate himself by a pine tree and died from loss of blood. (Pine is the oldest tree on the planet, and universally symbolizes immortality.) His blood fertilized the earth, and where it fell, violets blossomed.
Do you think that'll happen to Matt at his wedding... ?
