January 1st Isn’t the Bible’s New Year—Here’s When It Really Begins

 

 

Peace, blessings, and love to you all! Hold on tight for this one. I hope you are having a great holiday break, but I have to share something I’ve learned. If you don’t know, for the last year and a half, God (Yah) has called me out of Christianity and into His truth. At first, it was scary—I questioned it, I challenged it, and every single time, The Most High kept revealing everything I asked him to reveal.

After many days (and months) of fasting and praying, I made the choice to trust His Word over tradition. It wasn’t easy, but it was necessary. And I thank The Most High for waking me up from what I was blindly walking into—an oppressive state of mind. It may come as a shock to some, but I haven’t lost my mind—if anything, I found it through the Word and months of deep studying and research. And one of the biggest things He revealed to me? The truth about the so-called "New Year" vs. His true New Year. And today, I’m here to share it with you. Let’s get into it.

 

Understanding the New Year: From Pagan Origins to the Biblical New Year in Abib

As many celebrate January 1st as the "New Year," few realize that this date is rooted in ancient pagan traditions rather than biblical instruction. If we desire to follow the Most High’s ways, we must examine the origins of this man-made holiday and align ourselves with the true New Year as established in Scripture, which begins in the spring with the month of Abib.

 

Pagan Origins of the January 1st New Year

The modern New Year celebration is deeply rooted in pagan customs that date back to ancient civilizations. In Ancient Babylon (2000 B.C.), the New Year was originally celebrated during the spring equinox, aligning with agricultural cycles. Similarly, the Romans initially observed the New Year on March 1st, but in 45 B.C., Julius Caesar reformed the calendar and moved it to January 1st. This change was made in honor of Janus, the Roman god of beginnings and transitions, who was depicted as a two-faced deity—one looking forward and the other looking back (sounds about right).

Many traditional New Year customs, such as feasting, drinking, and making resolutions, stem from these pagan festivities and were later absorbed into Western society. Yet, biblical believers should ask themselves—should we continue to celebrate a day rooted in false gods and traditions, or should we return to the Most High’s calendar?

 

The Biblical New Year: The Month of Abib

Unlike the man-made calendars, The Most High established the true beginning of the year in the month of Abib, which means “green ears” (referring to ripening barley). This occurs in spring, not winter.

• Exodus 12:2 – “This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.”
• Exodus 13:4 – “This day came ye out in the month Abib.”
• Deuteronomy 16:1 – “Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the Lord thy God: for in the month of Abib the Lord thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night”

Key Facts About the Biblical New Year:

• The new year begins in Abib (spring) when barley is in its green ear stage.
• The new moon signals the beginning of the Feast of Unleavened Bread and Passover.
• The biblical calendar is based on the moon, not the Gregorian calendar

 

Choosing Rest Over Celebration: How I Reclaim Peace During the Holiday Season

 

 

Peace, blessings, and love family. As the world rushes to deck the halls, exchange gifts, and prepare for the “new year, new me” frenzy, I’ve chosen a different path—one of rest, reflection, and intentional living. As an Child of of the Most High, I don’t celebrate pagan holidays like Christmas and New Year’s, and instead of being swept up in the holiday chaos, I take this time to focus on what truly matters: my spiritual and mental well-being.

In this post, I’ll share a brief insight into the origins of these holidays and offer practical ways to embrace rest and self-care during a season that often feels overwhelming.

 

The Origins of Christmas and New Year’s: A Quick Insight

The holiday season is filled with traditions that many people follow without questioning their origins. Here’s a brief look at where these holidays come from:

 

Christmas

While Christmas is widely celebrated as the birth of Christ, historical evidence shows that December 25th was chosen to align with pagan winter solstice festivals, particularly Saturnalia, a Roman celebration honoring the god Saturn. Traditions like decorating trees and exchanging gifts have roots in pagan rituals, not biblical teachings.

 

New Year’s Day

The modern New Year’s celebration on January 1st traces back to ancient Rome, where it was dedicated to Janus, the god of beginnings and transitions. The Gregorian calendar’s New Year does not align with biblical or agricultural cycles, which often marked the true beginnings of a year.

Understanding these origins has led me to step away from these celebrations and focus on practices that align with my beliefs.

 

Why I Choose to Hibernate During the Holidays

This season is often marketed as a time of joy, but for many, it’s a time of stress, overspending, and burnout. By choosing rest, I protect my peace and set the tone for a truly intentional year ahead. Here’s how I approach this time of year:

• Spiritual Alignment: Instead of holiday festivities, I use this time to draw closer to God. Whether it’s through prayer, reading scripture, or meditating on His promises, I align my heart with what truly matters.

• Unplugging from Consumerism: The holiday season is filled with sales pitches urging us to buy more, do more, and be more. I’ve found freedom in opting out. By saying no to holiday spending, I can focus on experiences and connections that enrich my life.

• Embracing Rest and Reflection: The end of the calendar year doesn’t have to mean rushing to check off resolutions. I use this time to reflect on the past year, celebrate personal growth, and plan for the future at my own pace.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or seeking a different approach to the holiday season, here are 5 tips to help you reclaim your peace:

• 1. Set Boundaries: It’s okay to say no to holiday parties or traditions that drain you. Protect your time and energy by only committing to what feels right for you.

• Create a Restful Routine: Turn your home into a sanctuary by embracing cozy mornings, journaling, and moments of stillness. Light a candle, sip tea, and let yourself slow down.

• Focus on Nourishment: Instead of indulging in heavy holiday meals, focus on nourishing your body with foods that energize you. Warm soups, herbal teas, and fresh produce can be grounding and comforting.

• Reflect on Your Year: Use this time for honest reflection. What went well this year? What did you learn? What do you want to carry into the next season of your life?

• Plan with Intention, Not Pressure: The “new year, new me” mentality can be overwhelming. Instead of setting unrealistic goals, focus on meaningful intentions that align with your values and purpose.

My message to you, whether or not you celebrate the holidays, remember that you are not obligated to participate in traditions that no longer align with your values. You have the power to create your own rhythm and reclaim this season as a time of rest, reflection, and intentionality. 

 

I encourage you to take a step back, focus on what truly matters, and enter the next season of your life refreshed and renewed.
