Path of the Seasons
The Earthen Northern Hemisphere
This page only details the Northern Hemisphere at this time.
Please Note: The Path of the Season is Balanced globally.
In the Earthen Southern Hemisphere, the Season are the opposite of the Northern.
For Example, during Spring Equinox in the North, it is Autumn Equinox in the South.
In time, when members of the Monastery are from the South,
the Southern Path of the Seasons will be included here.
Thank you & Blessings~
