====''Krugolet'' and ''kologod''==== Ynglism proposes a unique structure of time which differs from that of other branches of Rodnovery and which Aleksandr Khinevich claimed to be a genuine Slavic calendar.{{sfn|Shnirelman|2007|p=52}} It is used by the Ynglists for organising their life and their divine liturgies.{{sfn|Gaidukov|2000|p=127}} It is based on great cycles of 144 years — ''krugolet'' (круголет), literally "circle flight", personified as '''[[Chislobog]]''' —, with each year beginning on 20 September on the autumn equinox, consisting of nine months of forty or forty-one days subdivided in weeks of nine days, with each day consisting of sixteen hours, each hour consisting of 144 minutes, and each minute of further subdivisions.{{sfnm|1a1=Gaidukov|1y=2000|1p=127|2a1=Shnirelman|2y=2007|2p=52}}<ref name="Ynglism-calendar">{{cite web|title=Славянские названия месяцев |trans-title=Slavic names of the months|url=http://derzhavarus.ru/slavyanskie-nazvaniya-mesyacev.html |website=Derzhava Rus |date=18 December 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170621212830/http://derzhavarus.ru/slavyanskie-nazvaniya-mesyacev.html |archive-date=21 June 2017}}</ref> In the ''krugolet'', years are arranged in groups of sixteen, with fifteen of them constiting of 365 days and the sixteenth year consisting of 369 days.{{sfn|Gaidukov|2000|p=127}} Each year also has its own name and associated animal (e.g. White Dog, White Goat, and the like).{{sfn|Shnirelman|2007|p=52}} According to Ynglist teachings, the "cycle of the year" (кологод, ''kologod'') is itself a phenomenon reflecting the order of the supreme God, that is to say its active manifestation, Yngly.<ref name="Ynglism-calendar"/> Each month's name may be written as a compound of two Ynglist runes, of which the first rune is either ''Ay'' (Ай), ''Bey'' (Бэй), ''Gey'' (Гэй), ''Day'' (Дай), ''E'' (Э), ''Vey'' (Вэй), ''Xey'' / ''Khey'' (Хей), or ''Tay'' (Тай), reflecting basic sounds in Indo-European tongues and representing the natural characteristics manifesting in the given month.<ref name="Ynglism-calendar"/> The second rune in the names is always the rune [[File:Ynglist Let rune.svg|20px]] ''Let'' (Летъ), which means "year" as well as "summer", as the months are phases of the year which comes to its full maturity in summer.<ref name="Ynglism-calendar"/> The only exception to this rule is the first month, Ramkhat (Рамхатъ), whose name refers to the beginning of Ra-M-Kha's ordering action, Yngly, represented by the ''swastika''-like first rune and extending as the entire year.<ref name="Ynglism-calendar"/> {| class="wikitable" style="margin:auto" |- !Month!!Runic sign!!Meaning!!Corresponding Latinate month(s) |- bgcolor="#FFD0C0" | '''Ramkhat'''<br>Рамхатъ || [[File:Ynglist Ramhat runic.svg|100px|center]][[File:Yngly (supreme God's action) rune.svg|50px|center]] || Ramkhat represents the principle of divinity articulating itself as the first month and as the entirety of the year; Ra-M-Kha/Ramkha who sets in motion and sustains a new year cycle.<ref name="Ynglism-calendar"/> Another symbol of this month is a hooked cross, which is the symbol of Yngly, the fiery action of the supreme God itself in the whole universe.<ref name="Derzhavarus-Ynglism"/> || September–October |- bgcolor="#FFD0C0" | '''Aylet'''<br>Айлетъ || [[File:Ynglist Ay rune.svg|50px|center]] || Aylet is the month of new gifts.
