fixed holy days
These holy days are on the same day every year on the solar calendar.
Kali Puji:
Kali Puji: Hindu holy day. Kali Puji, for Kali, destroyer of evil. Originated in Bengal as variation of
Diwali (Nov 16)
Old November Eve:
Old November Eve: Celtic holy day. Old November Eve, for Scottish Goddess Nicnevin,
who rode through the air on this night.
Maimkterion Noumenia:
Maimkterion Noumenia: Greek holy day. The first day of the Greek month of Maimkterion.
According to Plutarch (Mor. 828A), the Noumenia (the first day of each Greek month) are “the holiest
of days”.
According to Jon D. Mikalson (in “The Noumenia and Epimenia in Athens”, The Harvard
Theological Reviews, Vol. 65, No. 2, April, 1972, page 291), “In an ordinary year there were twelve
Noumeniai, and thus they form a large and important series of “holy” days. There is no indication in the
sources that the religious activities on the Noumenia of one month varied from those of another month,
and therefore the Noumeniai may be treated as a single homogenous group.
“The strictmess with which the Athenians preserved the sanctity and the independent identity of the
Noumenia is striking. No annual religious festival is attested to have occurred on the Noumenia or to
have included it. Not one of the positvely dated meetings of Athenian legislative assemblies such as the
Ekklesia, the Boule, or a tribal organization is attested to have occurred on the first day of a month.”
