captsoap Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 I know they celebrate birthdays, but are there holidays like Christmas, or Thanksgiving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Eater Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 There is Maiden's Day as was revealed in AFfC. There could be a holiday for each of the Seven except the Stranger.I don't think the faith of the Old Gods has any holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurkhal Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Most likely there are holidays for each of the Seven, as Fire Eater stated above, and also some days like the day Aegon landed on the continent, when the harvest is done and there may also be some according to astrological events, like when a certain planet comes into view and stuff like that.

Meera Greenseer Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hm, I doubt there would be such thing as thanksgiving for harvest, because with the long irregular seasons there are many harvests and not really an end of harvest...and probably that goes for most of our holidays, many of them being based somehow very basically on the regular changing of seasons,(even things in the line of easter --> fertility ---> spring) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Independent George Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I'm still not sure how they maintain a solar calendar given the screwy seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bran is hosting one in early ACoK.oh you're right about that!but I don't think this is a regular thing to do, but that it is done at that time because it was called out Autumn after some 10 yearsand soon the last harvest for some years to come...that would not make it a part of some "regular" holiday calendar in one year...edited for spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
