Melanau calendar
The Melanau calendar ((マレー語:Bulan Melanau)) is a calendar used by the Melanau people of Borneo. Its year consists of 12 months. The first month, ''Pengejin'', signifies the celebration of the Kaul festival (a giving of thanks for the preceding year, with prayers for the year ahead). Each month in the Melanau calendar consists of 30 days. It is guided by the constellations, natural phenomena and guardian spirits. Each month is named for occurrences during the month or events which are supposed to have occurred during that particular month, according to legend. The rise and fall of the sun, the moon and the stars determine the time for planting, harvesting, fishing, building, travel and marriage.
==Melanau universe==
The Melanau concept of the universe is a multilayered one, in which the territories of all should be respected and a balance maintained. Hence, it is important to be aware of one's surroundings: changes in the weather, the wind, the tides and the position of the constellations. The Melanau calendar is a guide for daily activities such as fishing, planting, harvesting, homebuilding and marriage, because the calendar is guided by the constellations and the ways of nature, spirits and God.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Melanau Calendar )〕
