It is scientifically measured and absolutely <i>filled<\/i> with festivals, feasts, processions, celebrations, and holy days. Tamara Siuda, accredited Egyptologist, has provided Kemetic Orthodoxy with a month-by-month calendar for years, and I have used it on a near-daily basis for over a year now. It has informed my practice and intrigued my inner reconstructionist; it has brought me closer to my gods, introduced me to new ones, and given me a broader taste of history and ancient Egyptian religion.<\/p>\n<p>And now that calendar is coming into the world as a book!<\/p>\n<p>This Kickstarter was funded in the first two hours, so it&#8217;s already going to happen. We get an ebook, huzzah!<\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s <i>so much more<\/i> we could get, too. A coil-bound printed copy. Or even <i>a mobile app<\/i>. How&#8217;s that for insanely freaking useful and awesome?<\/p>\n<p>Please, if you can spare a few dollars, back this project and help us bring even more forms of the the Ancient Egyptian Daybook to the public. I&#8217;ve been plugging in each new month&#8217;s Kemetic calendar into my Google calendar and synching it to my phone; I cannot tell you how excited I am at the prospect of an actual app to do this in a more efficient and user-friendly manner!<\/p>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t afford to back the project, please take a few moments and spread the word. The Daybook is of interest not just to Kemetics, but to anyone who loves or studies ancient Egypt; this is both a spiritual and a historical project, and I can&#8217;t wait to see it completed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ancient Egyptian calendar is amazing.
