When to use it

Print the journal in the days before Christmas and write the 13 wishes by Christmas Eve, December 24, 2026. Holy Night 1 is December 25, 2026, and stands for January. Holy Night 12 is January 5, 2027, and stands for December. You can see every date in the 12 Holy Nights calendar 2026.

On Epiphany, January 6, 2027, open the 13th wish. If you are new to the custom, read the guide to the 12 Holy Nights. For the wish practice itself, see the 13 wishes ritual.
