Celtic: Lunatshees
Old England: Martinmas
Hindu: Chhath Puja
Angola: Independence Day
Lunatshees is a day to celebrate heroes and to appease the sidhe (devilish faeries).
If there was heavy frost on Martinmas it was believed that the following winter would be full of heavy rains.
Chhath Puja celebrates the Hindu sun god Surya. It thanks Surya for sustaining life on earth and asks for wishes to be granted.
