Vaskaras 3340

It's the first of a new month: Vaskaras, the last summer month in the Filianic Calendar.

Vaskaras is one of the few months we aren't really sure what the etymology (meaning) is -- Rosea is obviously named for roses, Kerea for the Roman Goddess Ceres, but Vaskaras, we're not sure. When I was first getting started with the Calendar, it was called 'summer nights' or the 'evening month' because the further we get from the summer Solstice, the longer the nights get. Long warm evenings is what I think of when I think of Vaskaras!
