The Navajo Tribe observes a lunisolar calendar in which the months
begin with, and celebrations occur, at the Full Moon. All Native
American religions are grounded in Nature and its rhythms.
The three-phase series of Navajo Sing Festivals are celebrated with
chanting, dancing, and healing. Participants recognize Estsanatlehi
(meaning "Changing Woman") as representing fertility and abundance. She
manifests in the harvest and wields the power to constantly create and
change the world. Changing Woman is believed to have helped twin
brothers defeat the powers of evil.
