A Sri Lankan woman in a green saree stands outdoors at sunset, holding a notebook and singing to a gathered group. In the background, both the sun and a crescent moon are visible in the sky, while a small flower-adorned shrine sits under a large tree to the left.

~May 5 Moon and sun rule the sky above.Here on earth, the goddess rules.Here on earth, the seven goddesses.O goddess, pure and cherished one!We sing sweet songs over and over, inventing pleasing rhymes for her.Oh, our songs are so sweet that she forgives us anything to keep us singing. -Sri […]

A woman meditates in a lush garden next to an open ledger titled 'Credits' and 'Expenses.' She holds a golden scale in perfect balance while an ethereal mural of the Goddess Kali glows on a stone wall behind her. A stone marker in the garden reads 'April 6.'

April 6 When I was born, a book was made in which I enter credits and expenses.If I take in more than I give, I must account for the difference.If I give more than I take in, I must account for the difference.If I do not live in balance, there […]

An illustrative calendar-style painting of the Lithuanian sun goddess Saule. She is a regal woman with long blonde hair, wearing a flowing golden silk gown and an ornate silver crown made of gilded leaves. She walks gracefully across the shimmering surface of a lake at sunset. A heavy, embroidered gilt shawl slips from her shoulders, and she wears polished slippers. The image is framed by a decorative wooden border with sun motifs and features the text "April 5" along with a poetic description from Lithuanian folksongs.
