Osirismas

Happy Osirismas!

Osirismas is the holiday when the family of Osiris has their birthdays in the Ancient Egyptian Calendar system.  This follows the Solstice (Dec.20 - 25).  It was celebrated as Christmas after the usurpation of our religion by Monotheism.  The ritual is the same -- you venerate the Tree of Osiris (Cedar, Tamarisk, or Pine) with gifts at its base to exchange to each other later.  The Tree can also be a Djed Pillar.  The Birthdays of Osiris, Horus, Set, Isis and Nephthys are celebrated causing this to be a 365 day calendar (from 360).  It is also found in Coptic Christianity as its own month.  New Year's day follows this or whenever the Nile River Flooded.
