New year observances date back over 4,000 years and tie into cycles of time. But what are the greatly different cycles of time that exist around the world?

In the south of England, in the village of Stanbridge Mill, which is located near the town of Wimborne Minster, a new library was created in the building of a listed farm. According to the design of the Crawshaw Architects studio, the Gregorian farmhouse was rebuilt and, in addition to a publicly accessible library with seating, it also offers the necessary facilities, an office and a kitchen. The main building was originally a cow shed and for the last 40 years a warehouse for agricultural machinery.

Happy New Year! Rambles
Happy Solar New Year, and welcome to 2024! We're a few days in and I hope everyone is having a good year so far. I hosted a small, overnight mingle with some friends so I thought I'd share a recipe I found that absolutely slapped.
It's weird to think about, but New Years is one of those holidays that everyone in just about every culture celebrated in some way, but how and when varied wildly. This is because, until recently, different areas and cultures had different calendars. Ancient Egypt were the first to figure out the year should have 365 days, but they had three seasons, and a kind of limbo month of 5 days in case they need to extend the year (Leap year) The Start of their year was on our July 19th, when Sirius returned and the Nile flooded. This is good for crop growing.
Many people think the Ancient Romans were the ones to make our Modern calendar, mainly because the months are named in honor of Roman Gods. Plus there's the story of Julius Caesar creating an entire month and naming it after himself (July) is so well known. But, another Emperor, Augustus Caesar, also named a month after himself. Though to his credit, he just renamed an already existing month 'Sextillia' (Meaning Sixth). People think it's crazy to just add another month like that, but the last month for the Romans basically lasted for as long as they needed it to.
The new year for the Ancient Romans was on March 1st, where they honored Mars, God of War. Then Julius changed it to January 1st, Honoring Janus the God of Time. Eventually, Rome converts to Christianity, and the new year is now about Fasting and Prayer and fun stuff like that. It remains on Jan 1st and Honored Mary, until a while later it's decided that date is too pagan and they move it to December 25th. Celebrating the New Year with the Birth of Christ makes much more sense. Except, they run into a little problem where either the year runs short, as December doesn't have enough days, or we confusedly end the year AND start it....in December. Plus not many people knew of the change and didn't celebrate the new year. So after a while, they switched it back to January 1st.
Finally, in 1582, the Gregorian聽calendar was released. This is the Calendar we still use today, and despite your feelings on the religion that made it, it is the most accurate Calendar we humans have ever made. The year officially started January 1st. But a lot of people across Europe didn't adopt this calendar. Most people stuck to when spring time happened, around late March Early April, to celebrate the new year. It wasn't until the mid 1700s when Britain started expanding colonies into the new world that the push for everyone to adopt the Gregorian聽Calendar was made. This shift is why we have April Fools as people still celebrating the new year in April were called Silly or Foolish.
But people still celebrate OTHER new years. People in Mexico will still celebrate the Aztec New Year on March 12th. In Many Hindu communities, Diwali is considered the New Year. It date changes each year, but tends to happen in October. And then there's the Widely know Lunar New year. Celebrated across many Asian cultures and can be a massive celebration. More so than the Solar New year in some cases. The date also changes, but happens some time between end of January to start of February. Fun fact, if you are checking out your Chinese Zodiac and are born in January or Early February, you should check when the Lunar New year started the year you were born. So if you were born in the year of the Rabbit but your birthday is January 3rd; that means the new year of the Rabbit hasn't started yet and you should reference the Previous year, year of the Tiger, for your Horoscope.
Wow that turned into a weird ramble. Long story short; These crock pot noodles were good!

Hi it鈥檚 me again :>
This is a simple question but the answer may or may not be that simple I suppose. What inspired Totentanz?
Love your compositions
Good evening Lucien!
A trip to Pisa and my first starstruck encounter with the Triumph of Death by Buffalmacco in the Sacred Cemetery (Camposanto Monumentale) has inspired it. That, alongside the many impressions from the danze macabre on the churches in Paris and Italy, sealed the deal; and of course, the theme of Dies Irae itself from the Gregorian tradition. These have been the three keys. In particular I have marveled in Pisa at the souls depicted as infants being dragged out from the mouths of the dead by devils and Angels.
I've always worn a memento mori ring anyways.

This is an astrological calendar I made to track the phases of the sun and moon and the planetary symbolism of each day according to tropical astrology. No I dont believe in horoscopes I just think agricultural calendars organized by seasons are more scientific then the christian calendar we use for our jobs. 馃晲 The outer circle contains 365 spaces. Fill in each one to count the days 馃晳 The next circle in contains the 12 astrological months. The top half are the warm months the bottom half are the cold months. The most left and most right triangles mark the equinoxes and the top and bottom triangles mark the solstices. 馃晵 The next circle in marks the 36 decans, which are an egyptian method of organizing time into 10 day periods. 馃晸 The next circle in marks the lunar cycles and tracks full, new and half moons. 馃晹 The next circle in marks the days of the week. For those who dont know each day of the week is named after a planet / mythological god. Satur(n)day/ mo(o)nday are obvious but other days are more obvious in other languages such as Mardi(tuesday) is named after Mars. Mecredi (wednesday) is named after Mercury and Wodan aka Odin. 馃晻 Final circle in marks the planetary hours which divide the day into 7 segments. It is more there for show because its not useful unless I automated this calendar. 馃晼 The second picture is how each moment in time can be symbolized aka sigilized.
