A Moment In History: The Gregorian Calendar

In every culture, the calendar has a great impact on the culture, highlighting important events, influential people, the change of seasons, and holidays. In Western culture, we use the Gregorian calendar, and as you’ll in this moment in history, the calendar is massively influenced by Christianity. Let’s explore the history and background of the calendar of Western Civilization, the Gregorian Calendar.

You have to divide hrs of day with days of the year. For perfect calendar. Mix of both time tellers. Together old calendars are either lunar or solar. You have to include both. Thats how the 12 hrs 12 months 12 zodiacs come about

When was the calendar begins?

[@durandal1909]

It was not mentioned that the calendar was put together by the University of Salamanca, Spain.

Crazy that they messed up everyones lunar cycles

[@user-fh1bw8ee3u]

People who are watching this because it’s almost the new year

A circle represents a yr. A circle is 360 degrees. You have to fit 365 days within 360. Doesn't fit. So you have to remember moon cycles every 28 days. So 12x30 . 360. That's why we have to devide by 12. Technically 30 days. 12 months like Egyptian but off 5 days. Aztec already had it. You fit 5days left over with 2 from Feb making 7 days with 31. March is real New yr. Spring. That's why Feb is short. Technically 5.25 days for spring to arrive. 4 quarters is 1.00 one extra day. Aztec math adds up in long count no leap yr. That's your calendar. Aztec had the 52 yr round calendar and the 5,200 long count. Round. The same 52 weeks a yr. Devide that by 365 = 7 seven days a week. .

Wow. Christianity is beautiful

[@hanyani69]

Catholics r not Christian but pagans. 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@otisarmyalso]

Except Equinox dates still jump around by virtue of leap year's so the easter is still out... the true easter is found by astronomical means

[@thegardenranger]

Howbeit at that time, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to them that by nature are no gods: but now that ye have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how turn ye back again to the weak and beggarly rudiments, whereunto ye desire to be in bondage over again? Ye observe days, and months, and seasons, and years. I am afraid of you, lest by any means I have bestowed labor upon you in vain.
