Xitsonga fun fact about April

This is a time when the fields are heavy with the bounty of ripening maize, and the bushes have grown tall and dense, guarding the paths and steering wild animals away from the harvest and the roots of the earth. It is a time that signals the presence of the gods, for the movements of wild creatures align with the rhythm of summer, while warm-blooded animals prepare for the long rest of winter. This season marks a sacred transition, a turning of the year from abundance to the quiet vigilance of the coming cold.
