3 Nisannu - Lunar incense as an offering to the three goddesses I currently have images of on my altar (Tiamat, Shapshu, Gaia). Finished burning the candle for a spell started last week. Lit ancestor candle & tried to tend the wick a little bit.
4 Nisannu - Unlabeled incense (I think it's sandalwood) as an offering to my ancestors of blood and culture. Need to start working on the Hallows calendar again. Lit ancestor candle. Poured out the water from the altar chalice and refilled it.
Am contemplating declaring the epoch for the NeoChaldean calendar to be 29 October 1969, and use "Internet" as the name of the ruler. It's not far off from the Unix epoch, and it avoids the unpleasant implication that Presidents are somehow kings. That would make the date above "3 and 4 Nisannu, Internet 45." Not sure what to use for the previous ruler (Television, perhaps?), should I need to refer to dates prior to the epoch, but that's probably unlikely to happen.
