Holidays!

One of the most interesting things about any religion is its calendar — how the years are marked and what occasions are commemorated can tell us a lot about a religion's priorities and sense of sacred time. The Creative calendar is relatively sparse, with 7 holidays and the majority of the months being holiday-free, but it's no less interesting or impactful for all that; and any Creator should be keen to mark those few holidays.

As Thanksgiving approaches here in the United States we are rapidly entering 'the holiday season' and I'm pleased to note that Creators, like the Romans and so many others, maintain a festive winter holiday — in our case the Festum Album, the last and longest Creative holiday in the liturgical year that appears to have more than a passing resemblance to a White version of Kwanzaa. How do you celebrate the Festum Album and other holidays? Do you have a favourite holiday, or specific holiday traditions?
