The sacred year gives a rhythm to our observances. Through the Moon’s phases, the changing seasons, and our festivals, we return to relationships and responsibilities throughout the year. BNG follows a chosen reconstruction of the Coligny calendar for living practice. Our guides explain that reckoning and how we use it today.
