Description
Hopisinom (the Hopi people) have a traditional calendar that speaks to their connection to the changes in seasons through ceremony. Each moon cycle is named to coincide with the time of year. In July, the Hopi ritualize the going-home dance ceremonies known as Niman, when the spiritual entities known as Katsinas depart the Hopi Villages and return to the sacred Katsina Peaks. Spend a Minute Out In It watching Nimanmuya, the July Going Home Moon, rise over Ongtupqa (Grand Canyon).
