  • The Kala calendar is modeled after the Baha'i Calendar. This borrowing is based on mathematical symmetry, not religious or theological associations.
  • The 26th of February through the 1st of March is called the kyehu, or "break". This period includes the 29th of February in leap years.
  • Based on this calendar, Cinco de Mayo would be yoma pa'o te sayo ha'o, or Day 8 of Month 3.
Similarly, Valentine's Day would be yoma pa'o te sayo uepa'o, or Day 8 of Month 18.
  • In the chart below, each column represents a sayo, or 'month' and the rows are the yoma, or days.

yomua yotso puama
tsima na'o 01:00 09:00 17:00
tsima ta'o 02:00 10:00 18:00
tsima ha'o 03:00 11:00 19:00
