    Last night I stuck all the major meteor showers into my calendar. I’d gone outside and seen stars and remembered how l much I love to see stars and I rarely stargaze nowadays. I’m going to make more of an effort, especially for the seasonal meteors.

    Totally. I think it’s useful to have agriculturally based holidays for this purpose. Even if they’re ultimately detached from their original purpose (i.e. I don’t really need to know when the time to plant trees comes around), it’s useful to have these celebrations with seasonally specific rituals to mark the passage of time.
