<strong>World</strong> <strong>Religious</strong> <strong>Calendar</strong> 802<br />

Day of Anagran<br />

Day 30<br />

The day of Anagran celebrates the Av. Anaghra Raocha, Endless Light. Special prayers from the<br />

Khorda Avesta are recited in honor of the day’s spiritual being.<br />

Activity for the day from the Counsels of Adhurbadh, Son of Mahraspand: “(148) On the day of<br />

Anagran (the Endless Light) trim your hair and nails and take your wife to bed so that an exceptional<br />

child may be born (to you).” Adarbad Mahraspandan was a famous saint, high priest, and prime<br />

minister of Shapur II (309-379 C.E.).<br />

The fourth week (eight days) of each Zoroastrian month celebrates religious ideas.<br />

The Fasli, or seasonal, calendar is one of three Zoroastrian calendars still in use.<br />

Day 11<br />

The Celtic calendar started out as a moon calendar, but was aligned with the solar year during<br />

antiquity. Robert Graves proposed the Celtic tree calendar described here. While widely used by<br />

Neo-<strong>Pagan</strong>s, many critics dispute the authenticity. The Beth-Luis-Nion calendar (the one used here)<br />

starts with New Year on the Winter Solstice. The Beth-Luis-Faern calendar starts with New Year on<br />

Samhain.<br />

Each Celtic tree month (or moon) is named for a Celtic Ogham letter (first line above) and a tree<br />

(second line above). All of the Celtic months also had additional folk names (folk names for this month<br />

listed below).<br />
