Actually, spring, summer, fall, and winter used to start and end on what were (and are still called) the "cross-quarter days". The midpoint between equinoxes and solstices. Take for example, the old wives' tale of Groundhog's Day. Didn't you ever wonder why the saying of "there'd be six *more* weeks of winter if the groundhog saw his shadow" didn't make sense? When, according to present christian calendars and interpretations, winter didn't end until March 21st, the beginning of spring. How could you have 6 MORE weeks of winter if winter didn't even end yet? Because the Pagan calendar made sense, the christian one does not. Spring would start on February 2nd (Candlemas), a cross-quarter day, and end on May 4th (Beltane). Summer would last from May 4th to August 3rd, the longest days of the year. Fall from August 3rd to November 5th after all leaves have dropped their leaves, Winter from November 5th when snows start to fly to February 2nd when spring thaw would start in many places, the shortest days of the year. See, that makes sense, if you go back to the original Pagan definitions. The summer you have now is supposed to start at the hottest time of year and end in the fall according to the insane christian rewriting of the calendar, designed to cover up and hide all the original meanings of your own ancestor's original holidays and their associated wisdoms. Groundhog's Day finally makes sense too, that's the best part. A fun story ... the "hot cross bun" was invented by your Pagans ancestors, decorated with cuts that way to celebrate the 4 (or 8) points of the year, the 4 directions of the globe. (The scone still divided into eighths.) Then christians covered up the original meaning by saying it now represented their imaginary crucifixion story. Then the jewish culture stepped in and said, "We can't have that! Make a bun with no center so no cross can be imprinted on it!" Voil�! The Bagel! LOL That adequately represents the middle-east's absurdity and insanity in a nutshell, preserved in doughy customs to this very day.
