Spiritus Graffiti

Alea Iacta Est, 'The die is cast.' is inspired by 2000 year-old-graffiti placed outside a church in Rome. Product information The phrase was used by Julius Caesar upon crossing the Rubicon in 49 BC, according to Suetonius. The original meaning was roughly equivalent to the English phrase 'the game is afoot.' The saying denotes passing the point of no return on a momentous decision and entering into a risky endeavor where the outcome is left to chance.
