The Four Days of Heaven

The Four Days of Heaven are the most widely celebrated holidays within the Heaven religion. They are comprised of four holidays designated by annual celestial events: The Day of Two Suns, The Day of No Moon, The Day of Clarity, and the Night of Darkness. There are a wide variety of traditions surrounding these days. Most commonly, The Day of Two Suns and The Night of Darkness are celebrated with parties, parades, feasts, and other large social events. The Day of No Moon is generally seen as a day of remembrance and family, and typically involves a ritual meal at which all family members are present. The Day of Clarity is by far the most spiritual day, and is marked by complex, precise ceremonial acts and reflection. Many of these days also hold importance to other religions due to the significance of the celestial happenings.
