 #NEWYEARDAY

HISTORY OF NEW YEAR'S DAY

In the United States and many other countries around the world, January 1, the first day of the Gregorian calendar, ushers in a new year replete with New Year’s resolutions and promises to do better than in the year before. The day begins with hangover concoctions for some and, for others, prayers of gratitude for surviving to see a new year filled with promise. But how did this holiday begin? It’s a very old story.

Most civilizations aligned their calendars with the moon. The ancient Mesopotamians and Babylonians observed the new year over 4,000 years ago. For them, a new year followed the phases of the moon and the vernal equinox — when sunlight and darkness were equally balanced.  

The Babylonians ritualized the vernal equinox with Akitu, a religious observance spanning 11 days. The Egyptians marked the new year with the flooded waters of the Nile and the star, Sirius. To this very day, the Chinese New Year arrives with the second new moon after the winter solstice. 

The evolution from the lunar calendar to today’s Gregorian calendar commences with the early Roman calendar devised by Romulus, allegedly suckled by wolves who, along with his brother, Remus, founded Rome. The original Roman calendar was introduced in the 8th century at the start of the vernal equinox (when the light and the darkness are equal, remember?) with 10 months and 304 days. Another Roman king, Numa Pompilius added Januarius and Februarius. 

Most historians credit the Roman emperor Julius Caesar with developing the Julian calendar, designating January 1 as the start of a new year. The Gregorian calendar, which many nations around the world use today, arrived in 1582 when Pope Gregory XIII aligned the calendar, not with the moon, but with the earth’s rotation around the sun — marking 365 days.

 #MerryChristmasHappyNewYear

Why do we need to celebrate? 

It's important to us to enjoy life as much as possible, so choose the scenic route. If we don't take the time to celebrate small victories along the way, we're doomed to feel discontented the whole time.

We are the ones responsible for generating our own success energy. The energy of LACK is created whenever we relinquish joyous occasions. We are always wanting more because we are never satisfied with what we currently have.

As the year winds down, PB Candler Consulting, LLC suggests that you consider this exercise:

Don't let the end of 2022 pass without writing down at least three reasons for celebrating this year.
