The Modern Era — Season of Repentance
Days 253–280 enter the modern era: colonialism, revolution, and the reckoning with history. Virgo is the season of repentance, echoing the Jewish High Holy Days: Virgo 7 (Rosh Hashanah), Virgo 15 (Yom Kippur), Virgo 19 (Sukkot), Virgo 26 (end of Sukkot). The narrative of colonialism and repentance follows its own arc rather than being spread across all days as Easter is.
Virgo has 28 days and covers days 253–280 of the Gaian year · Gaiad chapters 253–280.
