    A month is a unit of time, used with calendars, that is approximately as long as a natural orbital period of the Moon; the words month and Moon are cognates. The traditional concept arose with the cycle of Moon phases; such lunar months («lunations») are synodic months and last approximately 29.53 days. From excavated tally sticks, researchers have deduced that people counted days in relation to the Moon’s phases as early as the Paleolithic age. Synodic months, based on the Moon’s orbital period with respect to the Earth–Sun line, are still the basis of many calendars today, and are used to divide the year.

    Types of months in astronomy[edit]

    The following types of months are mainly of significance in astronomy, most of them (but not the distinction between sidereal and tropical months) first recognized in Babylonian lunar astronomy.

    1. The sidereal month is defined as the Moon’s orbital period in a non-rotating frame of reference (which on average is equal to its rotation period in the same frame). It is about 27.32166 days (27 days, 7 hours, 43 minutes, 11.6 seconds). It is closely equal to the time it takes the Moon to twice pass a «fixed» star (different stars give different results because all have a very small proper motion and are not really fixed in position).
    2. A synodic month is the most familiar lunar cycle, defined as the time interval between two consecutive occurrences of a particular phase (such as new moon or full moon) as seen by an observer on Earth. The mean length of the synodic month is 29.53059 days (29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes, 2.8 seconds). Due to the eccentricity of the lunar orbit around Earth (and to a lesser degree, the Earth’s elliptical orbit around the Sun), the length of a synodic month can vary by up to seven hours.
    3. The tropical month is the average time for the Moon to pass twice through the same equinox point of the sky. It is 27.32158 days, very slightly shorter than the sidereal month (27.32166) days, because of precession of the equinoxes.
    4. An anomalistic month is the average time the Moon takes to go from perigee to perigee—the point in the Moon’s orbit when it is closest to Earth. An anomalistic month is about 27.55455 days on average.
    5. The draconic month, draconitic month, or nodal month is the period in which the Moon returns to the same node of its orbit; the nodes are the two points where the Moon’s orbit crosses the plane of the Earth’s orbit. Its duration is about 27.21222 days on average.

    A synodic month is longer than a sidereal month because the Earth-Moon system is orbiting the Sun in the same direction as the Moon is orbiting the Earth. The Sun moves eastward with respect to the stars (as does the Moon) and it takes about 2.2 days longer for the Moon to return to the same apparent position with respect to the Sun.

    An anomalistic month is longer than a sidereal month because the perigee moves in the same direction as the Moon is orbiting the Earth, one revolution in nine years. Therefore, the Moon takes a little longer to return to perigee than to return to the same star.

    A draconic month is shorter than a sidereal month because the nodes move in the opposite direction as the Moon is orbiting the Earth, one revolution in 18.6 years. Therefore, the Moon returns to the same node slightly earlier than it returns to the same star.

    Calendrical consequences[edit]

    At the simplest level, most well-known lunar calendars are based on the initial approximation that 2 lunations last 59 solar days: a 30-day full month followed by a 29-day hollow month — but this is only roughly accurate and regularly needs intercalation (correction) by a leap day.

    Additionally, the synodic month does not fit easily into the solar (or ‘tropical’) year, which makes accurate, rule-based lunisolar calendars that combine the two cycles complicated. The most common solution to this problem is the Metonic cycle, which takes advantage of the fact that 235 lunations are approximately 19 tropical years (which add up to not quite 6,940 days): 12 years have 12 lunar months, and 7 years are 13 lunar months long. However, a Metonic calendar based year will drift against the seasons by about one day every 2 centuries. Metonic calendars include the calendar used in the Antikythera Mechanism about 21 centuries ago, and the Hebrew calendar.

    Alternatively in a pure lunar calendar, years are defined as having always 12 lunations, so a year is 354 or 355 days long: the Islamic calendar is the prime example. Consequently, an Islamic year is about 11 days shorter than a solar year and cycles through the seasons in about 33 solar = 34 lunar years: the Islamic New Year has a different Gregorian calendar date in each (solar) year.

    Purely solar calendars often have months which no longer relate to the phase of the Moon, but are based only on the motion of the Sun relative to the equinoxes and solstices, or are purely conventional like in the widely used Gregorian calendar.

    The complexity required in an accurate lunisolar calendar may explain why solar calendars have generally replaced lunisolar and lunar calendars for civil use in most societies.

    Months in various calendars[edit]

    Beginning of the lunar month[edit]

    The Hellenic calendars, the Hebrew Lunisolar calendar and the Islamic Lunar calendar started the month with the first appearance of the thin crescent of the new moon.

    However, the motion of the Moon in its orbit is very complicated and its period is not constant. The date and time of this actual observation depends on the exact geographical longitude as well as latitude, atmospheric conditions, the visual acuity of the observers, etc. Therefore, the beginning and lengths of months defined by observation cannot be accurately predicted.

    While some like orthodox Islam and the Jewish Karaites still rely on actual moon observations, reliance on astronomical calculations and tabular methods is increasingly common in practice.[1][2]

    Roman calendar[edit]

    Roman calendar was reformed several times, the last three enduring reforms during historical times. The last three reformed Roman calendars are called the Julian, Augustan, and Gregorian; all had the same number of days in their months. Despite other attempts, the names of the months after the Augustan calendar reform have persisted, and the number of days in each month (except February) have remained constant since before the Julian reform. The Gregorian calendar, like the Roman calendars before it, has twelve months, whose Anglicized names are:

    Order Name Number
    of days
    1 January 31
    2 February 28
    29 in leap years
    3 March 31
    4 April 30
    5 May 31
    6 June 30
    7 July
    formerly Quinctilis
    31
    8 August
    formerly Sextilis
    31
    9 September 30
    10 October 31
    11 November 30
    12 December 31

    One of Wikipedia’s sister projects, Wiktionary, provides translations of each of the Gregorian/Julian calendar months into a dozen or more languages. Month-by-month links are provided here: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December.

    On top of the knuckles (yellow): 31 days
    Between the knuckles (blue): 30 days
    February (red) has 28 or 29 days.

    The white keys of the musical keyboard correspond to months with 31 day months. (F corresponds to January.)

    The famous mnemonic Thirty days hath September is a common way of teaching the lengths of the months in the English-speaking world. The knuckles of the four fingers of one’s hand and the spaces between them can be used to remember the lengths of the months. By making a fist, each month will be listed as one proceeds across the hand. All months landing on a knuckle are 31 days long and those landing between them are 30 days long, with variable February being the remembered exception. When the knuckle of the index finger is reached (July), go over to the first knuckle on the other fist, held next to the first (or go back to the first knuckle) and continue with August. This physical mnemonic has been taught to primary school students for many decades, if not centuries.[3][4]

    This cyclical pattern of month lengths matches the musical keyboard alternation of wide white keys (31 days) and narrow black keys (30 days). The note F corresponds to January, the note F corresponds to February, the exceptional 28–29 day month, and so on.

    Numerical relations[edit]

    The mean month-length in the Gregorian calendar is 30.436875 days.

    Any five consecutive months, that do not include February, contain 153 days.

    Calends, nones, and ides[edit]

    Months in the pre-Julian Roman calendar included:

    • Intercalaris an intercalary month occasionally embedded into February, to realign the calendar.
    • Quintilis, later renamed to Julius in honour of Julius Caesar.
    • Sextilis, later renamed to Augustus in honour of Augustus.

    The Romans divided their months into three parts, which they called the calends, the nones, and the ides. Their system is somewhat intricate.
    The ides occur on the thirteenth day in eight of the months, but in March, May, July, and October, they occur on the fifteenth. The nones always occur 8 days (one Roman ‘week’) before the ides, i.e., on the fifth or the seventh. The calends are always the first day of the month,[a] and before Julius Caesar’s reform fell sixteen days (two Roman weeks) after the ides (except the ides of February and the intercalary month).

    Relations between dates, weekdays, and months in the Gregorian calendar[edit]

    Within a month, the following dates fall on the same day of the week:

    • 01, 08, 15, 22, and 29 (e.g., in January 2022, all these dates fell on a Saturday)
    • 02, 09, 16, 23, and 30 (e.g., in January 2022, all these dates fell on a Sunday)
    • 03, 10, 17, 24, and 31 (e.g., in January 2022, all these dates fell on a Monday)
    • 04, 11, 18, and 25 (e.g., in January 2022, all these dates fell on a Tuesday)
    • 05, 12, 19, and 26 (e.g., in January 2022, all these dates fell on a Wednesday)
    • 06, 13, 20, and 27 (e.g., in January 2022, all these dates fell on a Thursday)
    • 07, 14, 21, and 28 (e.g., in January 2022, all these dates fell on a Friday)

    Some months have the same date/weekday structure.

    In a non-leap year:

    • January/October (e.g., in 2022, they begin on a Saturday)
    • February/March/November (e.g., in 2022, they begin on a Tuesday)
    • April/July (e.g., in 2022, they began on a Friday)
    • September/December (e.g., in 2022, they will begin on a Wednesday)
    • January 1 and December 31 fall on the same weekday (e.g. in 2022 on a Saturday)

    In a leap year:

    • February/August (e.g. in 2020, they began on a Saturday)
    • March/November (e.g., in 2020, they began on a Sunday)
    • January/April/July (e.g., in 2020, they began on a Wednesday)
    • September/December (e.g., in 2020, they began on a Tuesday)
    • February 29 (the leap day) falls on the same weekday like February 1, 08, 15, 22, and August 1 (see above; e.g. in 2020 on a Saturday)

    The Khmer lunar calendar most often contains 12 months; however, the eighth month is repeated (as a «leap month») every two or three years, making 13 months instead of 12.[7] Each lunar month has 29 or 30 days. The year normally has then 354 or 384 days (when an intercalary month is added), but the calendar follows the rules of the Gregorian calendar to determine leap years and add a lead day to one month, so the Khmer lunar year may have a total of 354, 355, 384 or 385 days.

    Germanic calendar[edit]

    The old Icelandic calendar is not in official use anymore, but some Icelandic holidays and annual feasts are still calculated from it. It has 12 months, broken down into two groups of six often termed «winter months» and «summer months». The calendar is peculiar in that the months always start on the same weekday rather than on the same date. Hence Þorri always starts on a Friday sometime between January 22 and January 28 (Old style: January 9 to January 15), Góa always starts on a Sunday between February 21 and February 27 (Old style: February 8 to February 14).

    • Skammdegi («Short days»)
    1. Gormánuður (mid-October – mid-November, «slaughter month» or «Gór’s month»)
    2. Ýlir (mid-November – mid-December, «Yule month»)
    3. Mörsugur (mid-December – mid-January, «fat sucking month»)
    4. Þorri (mid-January – mid-February, «frozen snow month»)
    5. Góa (mid-February – mid-March, «Góa’s month, see Nór»)
    6. Einmánuður (mid-March – mid-April, «lone» or «single month»)
    • Náttleysi («Nightless days»)
    1. Harpa (mid-April – mid-May, Harpa is a female name, probably a forgotten goddess, first day of Harpa is celebrated as Sumardagurinn fyrsti – first day of summer)
    2. Skerpla (mid-May – mid-June, another forgotten goddess)
    3. Sólmánuður (mid-June – mid-July, «sun month»)
    4. Heyannir (mid-July – mid-August, «hay business month»)
    5. Tvímánuður (mid-August – mid-September, «two» or «second month»)
    6. Haustmánuður (mid-September – mid-October, «autumn month»)

    Old English calendar[edit]

    Like the Old Norse calendar, the Anglo-Saxons had their own calendar before they were Christianized which reflected native traditions and deities. These months were attested by Bede in his works On Chronology and The Reckoning of Time written in the 8th century.[12] His Old English month names are probably written as pronounced in Bede’s native Northumbrian dialect. The months were named after the moon; the new moon marking the end of an old month and start of a new month; the full moon occurring in the middle of the month, after which the whole month took its name.

    When an intercalary month was needed, a third Litha month was inserted in mid-summer.[12]

    Old Celtic calendar[edit]

    The Coligny calendar (Gaulish/Celtic) is an Iron Age Metonic lunisolar calendar, with 12 lunar months of either 29 or 30 days. The lunar month is calculated to a precision of within 24 hours of the lunar phase, achieved by a particular arrangement of months, and the month of EQUOS having a variable length of 29 or 30 days to adjust for any lunar slippage. This setup means the calendar could stay precisely aligned to its lunar phase indefinitely.

    The lunar month is divided into two halves, the first of 15 days and the second of 14 or 15 days. The month is calculated to start at the first quarter moon, with the full moon at the centre of the first half-month and the dark moon at the centre of the second half-month. The calendar does not rely on unreliable visual sightings.

    An intercalary lunar month is inserted before every 30 lunar months to keep in sync with the solar year. Every 276 years this adds one day to the solar point, so if for example the calendar was 1,000 years old, it would only have slipped by less than 4 days against the solar year.

Because the ancient Egyptian year was almost a quarter of a day shorter than the solar year and stellar events «wandered» through the calendar, it is referred to as Annus Vagus or «Wandering Year».

    French Republican calendar[edit]

    This calendar was proposed during the French Revolution, and used by the French government for about twelve years from late 1793. There were twelve months of 30 days each, grouped into three ten-day weeks called décades. The five or six extra days needed to approximate the tropical year were placed after the months at the end of each year. A period of four years ending on a leap day was to be called a Franciade. It began at the autumn equinox:

    • Autumn:
    1. Vendémiaire
    2. Brumaire
    3. Frimaire
    • Winter:
    1. Nivôse
    2. Pluviôse
    3. Ventôse
    • Spring:
    1. Germinal
    2. Floréal
    3. Prairial
    • Summer:
    1. Messidor
    2. Thermidor
    3. Fructidor

    Eastern Ojibwe calendar[edit]

    Ojibwe month names[b] are based on the key feature of the month. Consequently, months between various regions have different names based on the key feature of each month in their particular region. In the Eastern Ojibwe, this can be seen in when the sucker makes its run, which allows the Ojibwe to fish for them. Additionally, Rhodes[17] also informs of not only the variability in the month names, but how in Eastern Ojibwe these names were originally applied to the lunar months the Ojibwe originally used, which was a lunisolar calendar, fixed by the date of Akiinaaniwan (typically December 27) that marks when sunrise is the latest in the Northern Hemisphere.
