Do You Get a Black Moon?
What is a Black Moon, and why does it happen in December?
Whit Monday, or Pentecost Monday, is a Christian holiday. It is the day after Pentecost, also known as Whit Sunday or Whitsunday, which commemorates the descent of the Holy Ghost upon the disciples of Jesus Christ, according to the New Testament of the Bible.
Is Whit Monday a Public Holiday?
Although Whit Monday is not a public holiday, businesses and schools may be closed because it falls on the same date as Temotu Province Day in 2025.
