Weeks
The month is divided into 4 seven-to-eight-day weeks inherited from Ancient Tarsia, via the Peych and Lygene calendars. They are named as follows: The first day of each week is known as a nundine, which was originally reserved for rest in Lygene times, but in Instructionism became associated with high rituals (though this is not doctrinally mandated). This nundinal system is observed in other Vasarean calendars, but is inverted from the Pastist calendar and the Vattic calendar, where the last day is for rest. Like most calendars of the world, the last two days of each month (Artic days) do not belong to any week, and high rituals are to be performed on these days.
