I refuse to have fun an arbitrary date change in the identical manner I stubbornly refuse to place my clocks again simply because somebody has determined we must always. It doesn’t get darkish at 4:30 pm in my world! ;o)
Being correctly in tune with the pure cycles is essential. The extra disconnected from nature our species turns into, the extra insane our world turns into.

P.S. for these questioning after I do my New 12 months’s Resolutions, they appear to naturally begin of their very own accord after the Autumn Equinox. Each October with out fail I both discover myself making huge life adjustments or occurring a well being kick of some description. Maybe I ought to transfer to the Southern Hemisphere the place it could be Springtime and make extra sense! 🤷♀️
P.P.S I’m certain our ancestors had a greater grasp of when the New 12 months actually begins – the clues are within the month names for individuals who know Latin-based languages – Sept needs to be month 7, Oct – 8, Nov – 9, Dec – 10. Which makes March month one. Appears we’ve all been ‘fooled’ into pondering January begins the 12 months… thoughts you, what haven’t we been fooled into believing on this weird realm…!
