Kemetic Holidays
Here is a list of holidays that I’ve seen modern Kemetics celebrate. I have broken the list up into completely modern holidays (aka they did not exist in antiquity) and ancient holidays that are celebrated in modern ways. If you have a holiday to add to this list or a write up of a holiday experience you have had that you would like included, please let me know!

Curious- do you have any writeups of your experiences doing any of the holidays? I’m trying to avoid the mundane list of “this date was celebrated on this old calendar that we don’t use anymore”, otherwise, I’d just C&P KO’s calendar and call it a day, if you get what I mean.
I can certainly create a section to link to the lists of holidays (I’ve got a few lists on tumblr for Thoth, f’ex), but if you’ve got any posts about how you celebrated said holidays (Like the Rosalia one), I’d love those even more :3

I wish I had a camera that worked. Then I would put up pictures!

It wouldn’t really work, considering that most of the time frames listed are just generalized days of the year. I don’t have specific dates for most of these holidays, unfortunately.

Did your blog get hacked? Look at the words in the posts? What happened to it?

The page looks fine to me. We got a lot of genitals in our holidays, what can I say.
