The months follow the cycles of the moon. When a Foxman can see the new moon, he knows he's reached another month. The Clan recognizes the year as divided into four parts, based on the farming, gathering, raiding, and hunting cycles. Each of these seasons begins with a festival, held on the nearest moon, new or full, depending on the festival, season, and time of year. Smaller, minor festivals are held on the ninth day of the third, sixth, or ninth month.     BELTAIN The largest festival of the year marks the first days of summer, which all long for in this cold, unforgiving realm. The clanholme swells to several times its normal size during these three days as outlying homesteaders from all over the Foxlands come to partake in the festivities.  This is a time of partnerships and fertility. Political alliances and marriages are declared. Animals are transferred from winter to summer pastures, in between being driven through the Beltain Fires to cleanse them of evil spirits. On the first day of the Beltain, the entire clan ages as one.  The age of every Foxman is measured by the number of Beltains he's seen. And, it is during the Beltain that the Ras Croi is run.</blockquote>
