New Years is actually supposed to be celebrated during the spring season, not January 1; there’s spiritual reasons for that.

:ohhh: I make my resolutions during the spring. My birthday is in the spring, but that's not really why. It just felt right.

:jbhmm: Might be for astrological reasons. Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, starts in late March.

On topic, this is so fukked up. :snoop: Learning the details of slavery is so hard. You get it broadly, but the particulars of what our ancestors went through... it's a lot. :mjcry:

We never do anything on Nye. We'll continue doing that. :aicmon: My mom goes to church and she's not even religious like that.

Good post- informative. Reading through now. This is one of the many reasons that I don’t acknowledge or assimilate into holidays to that extent. I always have in the back of my mind that there’s a nefarious backstory with whites and their time-honored “traditions” and “celebrations”. New Years is actually supposed to be celebrated during the spring season, not January 1; there’s spiritual reasons for that.

When God brought the children of Israel out of bandage and into his covenant/passover, he said "this is the beginning of months unto you"..

You see it. That’s amazing, you didn’t realize that you were engaging in the spiritual celebration formally (mind you, I’m not referring to Easter either which is also fugazi imo) but something internal to you knew that it was the right time. This thread is very interesting. Let me put what I have together and I’ll get back with y’all. My mind works overdrive when it comes to history and spiritual significance, internal human nature, generational ties.

Crazy how the title said "Slaves" and I'm sure 99% of people including me thought they were talking about Black people

White people themselves were slaves for hundreds of years. CAC media really did a number on our psyche brehs

White people are stupidly demonic

You wouldn’t believe the half - there’s an actual news article from the 1800s -1900s announcing a “gator bait” party in the newspaper, I’m not posting it though . Basically they use black babies as bait to lure the crocodiles and alligators out from hiding.

As I get time, I’m just posting up but I’ll do a compilation of different subjects later.


The Truth About NEW YEAR
“The earth's rotation regulates the length of a day -- the lunar phases indicate the length of a month. And the orbit of the earth around the sun dictates the length of a year!
But ONLY GOD has the AUTHORITY to set the date of the beginning of the new year!
God's sacred calendar year begins in the spring -- not in the middle of a dead winter! Notice Exodus 12:1-2, "And the Eternal spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the FIRST MONTH OF THE YEAR TO YOU."
The first month of God's sacred calendar is called, in the Bible, "Abib".

God placed the beginning of the sacred year in the early spring to mark the beginning of the seasonal harvests. The two annual harvests in Palestine foreshadowed God's Plan for the twofold SPIRITUAL harvest of souls to be born into His Kingdom.
Your Bible speaks of a great false religious system which will "think to change times and laws" (Dan. 7:25). This system has deliberately thought to change the beginning of God's calendar year in an attempt to hide God's Plan for the salvation of mankind! But man has no authority to change God's "master-clock."
Satan, however, has cleverly deceived the world into believing the new year begins on January first!”
