Yay for another synthetic celebration pushed from the top that nobody cares about.
Spring equinox is a damn great day though.
Next - appoint 4 yearly happiness days on both equinoxes and solstices. Like many pre-abrahamic cultures did.
- rubyfan 7y agoHaha did you mean 1. Passover/Easter 2. Saint John’s Day 3. Harvest Festival/Sukkot/Thanksgiving 4. Christmas
- mantas 7y agoSort of. But drop bastardised add-ons by Christianity and return to celebrating the nature. And stick to sun calendar. I couldn't care less about christianity, but both solstices are a big thing for me. I hope christmas eve dinner won't die and won't move to "new year" as christianity slowly dies.
- andrepd 7y agoSeason-based celebrations rule. I wish there was a cultural custom for Midsummer.
- mantas 7y agoIt is quite a big thing in northern europe. Goes as far as national holiday in Lithuania and Latvia. Nordic countries celebrate it as well, but not sure if it's marked as national holiday.
