Ritual Calendar: 2008
Please note that not all cults observe all holidays. Dates with significance to individual groups, like leaders’ birthdays, may also be celebrated. Those groups that utilize numerology mark dates whose numbers add up to ‘‘power numbers’’ or dates with repeating numbers, such as August 8, 2008.
S = satanic N = nazi
P = polytheistic (belief in and worship of more than one god)
