Possibly the Swedish night of St Lucia - December 13, day 347
in the Gregorian calendar - is a reflection of an older custom which
took place in February 13 - because this may once have been the 12th
month:

November 25
(329) was the day when Antares rose with the Sun and
in Polynesia a sign of summer in front. There are 80 days from
November 25 to February 13 and therefore February 13 is right
ascension day 329.
32 * 9
= 288 = 12 * 24. The cycle of Venus is 584 nights long and 584 -
8 = 576 = 24 * 24. If the Venus cycle is beginning with those 8
dark nights when she is invisible before returning as morning
star then RA day 329 - 8 = 321 could be her last night as
evening star. 321 + 80 = 401 (February 5):

The
running figure with a great fist held high in front could
represent the first night of Venus as morning star
80 days earlier than December 13 means 347 - 80
= Gregorian day 267, when Ankaa (α
Phoenicis) was close to the full Moon and when Sun was visiting Raven,
the black bird. This was the π manzil day (when reading the
nakshatra stars in the night):
