Yes. Over four millennia have gone by — the entire Great Ages of Aries and Pisces (spanning about 4,275 years)  — without significant change, or even the acknowledgment of a need to reconcile the current Gregorian calendar (Gc) with present-day Celestial/Earth realities. We think it’s about time to consider a Change for Time.

Due to the inevitable precession of the equinoxes, the March equinox is now occurring within the starry backdrop —  or at least within the 30-degree arc of influence — of  the constellation Aquarius (i.e., we have now begun our transition into the Age of Aquarius).

[ Even if not quite yet, it is a moot point as we will be in the Age of Aquarius for at least two thousand years to come. ]

The Gregorian calendar, along with current tropical astrology — which still equates the March equinox’s starting point with Aries (which was commensurate with accurate astronomy when first established) — is now over four thousand years out of date. ✨

Most people are unaware of the fact that modern Calendric Reform has been undertaken many times — worldwide — over the past century (1900–56) where scientific, commercial, and religious organizations, as well as some dynamic individuals, sought to increase social awareness and bring the case of calendar reform to light through a number of national meetings and international conferences.

The last such meeting, held by the United Nations (1956), reached an impasse on its promotion of a World Calendar, which utilized a “blank” day, to be called Worldsday (having no weekday name and not included among the days of the month) as the 365th day of the year, and in a leap year, adding a second blank day between 30 June and 1 July. Consequently, the seven-day sabbatical cycle observed from time immemorial by the entire civilized world would be disrupted, causing incalculable damage  —  this was generally viewed as a wholly unacceptable set of circumstances.

To date, only two other plans for calendar reform of note have been offered to the world  —  the Equitable Calendar and the Hanke-Henry Calendar. Perfected by Father Evarist Kleszcz, a Franciscan priest, mathematician, and accountant, the Equitable Calendar plan differs from the World Calendar in that it utilizes the principle of adding a leap week (instead of blank-days) to maintain accuracy over time. The proposed method was to add one whole week at the end of December every five or six years to hold the date of the March Equinox always within the week of 18 March to 24 March. This was (and still is) a quite sophisticated and viable plan; but unfortunately, one that came too late to receive much deserved attention on the world stage. The Hanke-Henry calendar, credited to Bob McClenon for its design, employs a similar concept  —  utilizing a leap week  —  but also involves adoption of a Julian Day dating system and conversion of clocks to “Universal Time” (i.e., UTC, with the elimination of time zones).

While both worthy concepts, neither of the two plans above take the important step of realigning the Houses to current Earth/Solar realities by shifting the March Equinox to the first day of March and then marking this as the first day of each new solar year. This is the EartHeaven calendar’s true differentiator; one which makes it the most logical and suitable calendric solution for the Aquarian Age. ✨

The primary driving cause of the efforts for calendar reform has been cited as the “want of fixity.” So, what is fixity? Simply, fixity is the state or quality of being unchanging or permanent. As it pertains to calendars, it is when a calendar’s dates (numbers) in each week and month stay married to the same days in each week/month, year after year.

A fixed calendar, such as the EartHeaven calendar, will always keep the same dates (or numbers) anchored to the same days of the week —  every year (i.e., New Year’s Day falls on Sunday, 1 March — every year).

By positing the March Equinox to Sunday, 1 March, and “fixing” it as New Year’s Day, all the days and the dates in the 364-day calendar are permanently fixed in their positions on the EHc, realigning us once again, here on Earth, with the Heavens above, as we follow the sun’s current journey along its ecliptic path. In fact, the reason for EartHeaven, and not Earth Heaven, is expressly to signify that the EHc is the bond of Earth to the Heavens.✨

A NOTE ABOUT BIRTH DAYS

Consider the difference between your birth day and your date of birth. (Your mothers know; you cannot change the day of the week you were born on.) We are all born on a particular day of the week. In fact, people of many cultures around the world are more apt to know the day of the year they were born on, rather than the date. So, perhaps we should celebrate our birthdays according to that day of the week in which we were born, marked by a point in time based on our position here on Earth as we journey around the sun (instead of some arbitrary date, that shifts its position year to year). This is what we do on the EHc. Oh, and your EHc birth day (and your sun sign) may be different than you’d imagined. (See Age of Aquarius?? for further reading.) 💫

El-evolution is the concept that we are all evolving naturally/organically; however as sentient beings, we have the power to consciously direct our evolution, to elevate our sights on evolving toward increased awareness. It is a mindful choice to better ourselves. ✨

Intercalation is the method of keeping a calendar accurate over time. The method presently used with our current Gregorian calendar involves adding a leap day periodically. The EartHeaven calendar utilizes a method which adds one full seven-day week periodically to maintain accuracy. What we have found is that there are several possibilities for the arrangement of that sequencing (as described in the EHc White Paper.)

Because this calendar is based on an ancient format, there may be some as yet unconsidered methods. To that end, we wish to invite anyone to try their hand at suggesting methods of intercalation. We are interested in your ideas! ✨

Not us. Our legacy of time keeping (i.e., calendars) is at least 6,000 years old; and the astronomy and mathematics used undoubtedly existed far before that.

The Ancient Wheel of Earth Time has always had four distinctive features: 52 weeks; of seven days each; divided into 12 months; and beginning with the vernal equinox.

So, to carry the analogy, there is no need to reinvent this wheel; it simply needs to be properly balanced, inflated, and mounted. Using the EartHeaven calendar solution, we’ll be good to go! ✨
