Holidays

Holidays
Currently, there are four holidays in Spirism, occurring 3-4 months away from each other. Rather than being based off days, they are based off breaks, much like Pilgrimages.

While these holidays are designed around pilgrimages, anyone can celebrate by gathering a group of friends, or even creating a separate pilgrimage.

Celare
This holiday occurs on the first day of school. Participants will buy a box of spaghetti (generally Rigatoni, or Penne, due to their incredible durability), and hide a single piece somewhere. This can be anywhere someone can find (not under your bed). Some of the best areas to do this are large stores, due to their complexity.

Trova
Trova is the opposite of Celare, where participants find the pasta they hid. This happens on the last day before summer break. If the pasta is found, the person in question will receive good luck for their entire summer break.

The Day of Love
The Day of Love (abbreviated as "Love Day") occurs on the first Friday after Spring Break. On this holiday, participants will group up, and buy the best gifts possible for under five dollars. After this, the group packages the gifts in such a way that the contents cannot be seen, and the group holds a White Elephant, where the packages are mixed, and exchanged randomly between the group members.

The Day of Hate
The Day of Hate (abbreviated as "Hate Day") occurs on the second Friday after Spring Break. This holiday is the opposite of Love Day, where participants buy others the worst possible gifts under five dollars. The giving procedure is the same as Love Day, except with more angry, confused tears.
