To keep things simple, Mizahar's Calendar runs equivalent with our own real world one. We have four timechanges throughout the year, corresponding with the season changes, and we do not keep track of months. Instead we have 91 days a season, except for winter which has 92 to equal 365 days a year. Because of the harshness of life on Mizahar, keeping track of the months would be fairly difficult. Instead, people simply rely on the Watchtower flares to note the changing of seasons. Those are described more in detail below.
The Breakdown
- Spring - March April May - Green Watchstone
- Summer - June July August - Yellow Watchstone
- Fall - Sept Oct Nov - Red Watchstone
- Winter - Dec Jan Feb - Blue Watchstone
The year change happens on March 1 of Real Life. So March 1st, 2010 would equate to Spring 1 of 510... and The New Year on Mizahar. The Valterrian is often celebrated/mourned on this date as well.
