Heathen Calendars
(Not a big Reddit user so let me know if this breaks any rules I don't know about. I am cross-posting this to a few different subs as well)
Hello all, I have spent the last month putting together a number of different Heathen Calendars. The link provided is a Google Doc that explains my methodology, sources, and charts featuring a comprehensive list of holidays along with the dates provided by a number of different Heathen and Asatru groups and blogs. All the websites I found that listed dates for holidays got put in the chart.
There's about 5 different more-or-less standardised methods of reckoning that my sources use to calculate their dates, and I do my best to explain how each website came to their calculations. I also quote my sources in their explanations and summaries of the holidays themselves. I also elected to include Anglo-Saxon holidays because theirs are more-or-less the same and in some cases, have been adopted entirely, such as Mother's Night.
At the bottom of the document, I have provided links to 5 Google Calendars (+1 Anglo-Saxon calendar) that I have put together using the data from the chart, although the calendars don't include everything from the chart. Some information is group-specific, so I used my best judgement. Obviously, these are not written in stone, (or primstav, so to speak) so you can take them or leave them as you like. That's one of the reasons I have included the master chart - you can decide which reckoning you prefer for each holiday. It took me weeks to gather and compare all of the information and I wanted to at the very least make it so you don't have to do the same. If there's anything that I got wrong or that I missed or if there are holidays that I haven't included (apart from days of remembrance) feel free to let me know and I can add them. I am also willing to keep these calendars updated pretty much indefinitely, if anyone is actually interested in using them.
