Athenian festivals were divided between the 80 or so annually recurring celebrations and a set of monthly holy days clustered around the beginning of each month. These were often the birthdays of gods, the Greeks thinking of birthdays as a monthly rather than a yearly recurrence. Every month days 1-4 and 5-8 were all sacred to particular gods or divine entities, amounting to some 60 days a year:

 

Day 1: New Moon

Day 2: Agathos Daimon

Day 3: Athena's Birthday

Day 4: Heracles, Hermes, Aphrodite and Eros

 

Day 6: Artemis' Birthday

Day 7: Apollo's Birthday

Day 8: Poseidon and Theseus

 

A parallel function of this calendar was the positioning of the perhaps 15 or so forbidden days on which business should not be transacted.
