The fact that everything on the northern hemisphere comes to a fall in autumn (from september equinox to november 18) and to a start in spring (from march equinox to may 14) and the other way round on the southern hemisphere, the "asa heathens" (in reference to the sun) invite to a midwinter festival as the last celebration before the Deep Winter to have a Good Wheel with the intention to endure another round of Time. Their Saga describes their Actions in Time and Reactions to the changes of Climate that correspond to the Life style of a Bear as an entirely natural and a secular way of living. Bears (in origin from an adjective meaning "brown" ) feed themselves well from early spring to late autumn and are known for their autumn behaviour saving large amounts of nuts and fermented fruits and making a den in shelters such as caves and burrows, together with almost all kinds of different living species, for a long period of hibernation to pass the winter. It is a lifestyle significant to the time of nine months that it takes for a Phytotron, such as a female belly womb, to deliver a living organism and take to rest for three months before beginning another reproductive cycle of her Phytotron. Thus, a year that cognates to jaar or år, is originally that which makes a complete cycle from the verbal meaning to do and to make which is to honour the hora pertaining to a year, a season, a day, an hour or any other part of the year and time to generate living species.
We have no religion. We are ethnic heathens.
