Festivities

Festival of Asterius

This is an Earth-month-long festival made to celebrate Astra. Conforming still to Earth time, it takes place around the Summer Solstice. Many shops are opened and a large parade is held at the capital of Astalus 02. Elaborate performances including dances and acrobatics are available to witness at many centers of entertainment, and supporters are encouraged to dance, sing, and generally be more convivial. Bonfires and candles are also lit, and nightly feasts are often eaten at gatherings. Away from the hub, Comet Dividers may celebrate by lighting candles, making a feast, or lighting a bonfire with close friends.

Night of Lunyx

This is an Earth-month-long festival made to celebrate Lunara. Contrary to the Festival of Asterius, the festivities of this celebration take place primarily in the dead of night. In Earth time, it takes place around the Winter Solstice. During the event, participants are encouraged to sing songs, dress up in elaborate costumes, and share homemade sweets and presents. Candles are lit among the streets, and a generally quiet and eerie vibe is withheld to preserve the nighttime atmosphere. At home, Comet Dividers celebrate by throwing sleepovers with friends, giving gifts, and baking treats.

Meteor Showers

Meteor showers are regarded as a very special event by many Comet Dividers. This is because meteor showers make it easy to witness comets falling through the sky and new Comet Dividers being born. Commonly, Comet Dividers within viewing range of a meteor shower will light fireworks in celebration of a new generation. At the Temple, Astra and Lunara document all of the comets and light a candle if there is a birth.
