Summary/Abstract: The direct or indirect contact with the field works of the year, the life and welfare of the individual or of the community is characteristic to the traditional calendar customs. In their repertoire, alongside customs directly related to the field works appear customs directly related to the life of the individual, of the family or of the community. The association between maternal fecundity and fruitfulness of the earth is the concept that unites the two aspects. These customs have a cyclical character, being repeated in similar forms at certain fixed dates of the year.
