While May is considered a time of new harvest and celebrations for farmers across the country, it also ushers in the dreaded Indian summers, which in turn is symbolized by vacations for children and family trips to the hills for a lot of Indian families.  However, the importance of May runs much deeper than just the basic symbolic inferences to which we as a society often restrict ourselves to. It also has a significant place of honor within religious and spiritual connotations, cultural diversity and societal practices. Here are some of the unique things which make May, the most mystical of all months: Despite a majority of months being named after Greek Gods and even the occasional Roman king, May is named after Maia.
