Michael is correct in that not all of Glorantha recognize the 2-week Theyalan Sacred Time, though much of Genertela does.
Per the RQ3 Glorantha Book, the Doraddi have a 1-week Holy Week. For arcane reasons, I believe that this corresponds to the last week of Theyalan Sacred Time.
Most of Peloria appears to use the Theyalan calendar, due to a lot of culture mixing in the First and Second Ages.
The Kralorelans do not appear to have any particularly sacred week, per the Genertela Boxed set.
I have no idea about the Westerners. And I think most non-humans would be aware of the Theyalan system, but would probably not follow it too closely.
This brings up a question that has bugged me for awhile -- do the trolls use the Theyalan calendar?

Let's not bring up this particular issue, shall we? IMO, it could get kind of ugly.
