    THE KITH OF YGGDRASIL ALMANAC       

                                               

 

Introduction:  This short almanac provides some essential information about the Kith in a handy form for the convenience of members.

The religious calendar shown below is intended only as a standard for Kith publications and has been asked for by some contributors.  Members may prefer to use other calendars  in their own religious practices.

Year Dating Convention: For the sake of simplicity we do not adopt the dating system which adds an arbitary 250 years to the present world calendar: thus the year 2005 is preferred rather than 2255.

Religious Calendar: We use the generally accepted one of our faith that has been in use for a good 40 years.

Sunday Sol’s Day [Sun]
Monday   Manni’s Day [Moon]
Tuesday  Tyr
Wednesday Odin
Thursday  Thor
Friday Frigga
Saturday  Surt’s Day

Starting with the Sun-day and ending with Sat-urday is felt to invoke the cycle of creation and destruction from nourishing warmth to destructive fire.
