Herald of Seasons

Exalted Calendar SAVE EDIT The Calendar of Creation The Calendar of Creation Months and the Weather Ascending Water is the coldest month of the year; the dead of winter, when the North is frozen with ice, while frost, snow, and cold weather blanket the East and West, however the South has pleasant rains and temperature. Temperatures rise throughout the wet months of spring, Descending Water through Resplendent Earth, when hurricanes buffet the South, monsoons imperil ships at sea in the West and drenching downpours drown the east; the North, on the other hand, transitions from arctic to subarctic, experiencing snowfall to lay atop the fallen ice. The growing period begins in Descending Earth, occupies all of Wood and goes on through Ascending Fire. This extra-long growing peroid means that Creation seldom has difficulty feeding it's inhabitants. Temperatures get hot very quickly, however, shifting from warm growing weather to the dead heat of midsummer very swiftly; Descending Fire is the hottest month of the year; the South gets very closely aquainted with the Unconquered Sun as he looms high and long in the sky, the western Breadfruit Trees dry up, the forests of the East are starved for water, and the North becomes bright and temperate, fully open to trader's and travellers. Following this, temperatures fall rapidly, heralding storms across Creation and hurrying in the year's last harvest.
