Anishinaabe Understandings of Time

To learn more about Native communities and culture visit ojibwearchive.sas.upenn.edu/
The measurement of time is not intricate or precise. In the Anishinaabe language, months are defined by significant events associated with them. The new year for the Anishinaabe is marked by Spring. Spiritually, all ceremonies are conducted before Spring ends. Learn what the Anishinaabe look out for to know when it is Spring, Winter, Fall, or Summer.

Its is just like the times of feasts in the Bible, spring is the beginning of the year. Yes the Creators calendar is in His creation. Also the equinox is a sign of the beginning of the new year in the spring. Thank you for you video. Shalom
