Ancient Egypt: Last Day of Isia; the rebirth of Osiris
Dominica: Independence Day
The Isia celebrates the search of Isis for her son/lover Osiris. She collects his dismembered body parts and reunites them via magic powers. On this, the last day, Osiris is re-born. Crowds of people would shout “Hilaria” (Osiris has been found). Images of Osiris were made from grain, watered and once barley sprouted, sent down the Nile. This was a day of unrestrained rejoicing.
This is also a traditional Celtic day for making new plans.
2008 The Inner Sun - Bootes enters Sage's Keep and seeing a pedestal illuminated by candle light, he thinks he has found what he was looking for. He stands in reverence.

He begins searching for one that will continue his quest.
2008 The Inner Sun - No One wanders in the dark and finds a fire. He thought there were only shadows. He leaves the fire and continues through the wasteland which seems dead. The sky is dark. He hits a cross road with a well in the centre. He finds not life here either, nothing but wind, dust darkness and...a vase...
