Eclipsa's Day
Everfree Village Holidays 8 November 2022 - 8 November 2022
A day to celebrate the night, takes place in the day with the last full moon of autumn... During the day all the grifix craft lanterns from paper they paint with warm colors from plant paint mixed with water, which they later cover in oil for the light to easily go through. At night, the little grifix light their lanterns with fire from The Fire in the Center of the Village, and then go around the village giving light to the other grifix that give the light to other grifix, spreading the light throughout the village. After all the grifix have their lanterns lit, the fillies go in the forest, led by one or two older grifix (to make sure nothing happens to them), giving light and warmth to the dead nature (because it’s so late in the autumn as all the leaves fell and everything looks dead), giving it enough power to make it through the winter to come. For that they go from tree to tree, taking their lanterns close to the tree’s roots.
After they walk around doing that for a while they all go back to the village, gather in the center and look at the stars, finding patterns through the stars and admiring the beauty of the night.
