The Kemetic Reform liturgical year begins on July 18th. In this working temple schedule, most feast day observances are scheduled for the nearest Friday, where it forms the focus of our live stream rituals. The year number, now Year 22, reflects when the first online iteration of the Temple of Tutankhamun began in 2005 (which marked Year 1).
Major holidays, such as Upet Ronpet (Kemetic New Year's) and the Opet Festival, are given in bold print.
Our weekly live streams are always hosted on Fridays at approximately 8:30 to 8:45pm Central US time. To determine festal themes for Friday services, we start with the general calendars in Circle of the Sun for major holidays and Celebrating the Egyptian Gods for various deities' feast days. Usually a festival is observed on the nearer Friday (either before or after the actual date), unless the farther day helps to avoid either repetition or conflict with other observances.
Phases of the moon, which can be observed ritually at individual members' choosing, are listed with asterisks (*). Circle of the Sun includes lunar rituals. Decade Feasts, also marked with asterisks (*), are literally 'Tenth-Day Feasts'. The ancient Egyptian week lasted ten days, and the tenth day was a time to honor the deceased as well as their eternal king, Osiris. When the Decade and Regular service coincide, they are combined in our live stream ritual.
Noteworthy non-Kemetic holidays are listed in italics. We also have a dedicated Mesopotamian ritual calendar, which you can read about and use to plan your own Mesopotamian feast days here.
