why is september the ninth month?
if we call october like octagon then 8 and sept should be seven yet we call october "ten"??
we are born into a world with a calendar which calls 1 to january. however, the names preserve a different calendar. ten conflicts the name for october and december. december is now the last moth of the year- but not when it was named.
the twelfth month of the year was named february and the added day 2/29 was added before the new year started in march [not somewhere in the middle of the year]. such as in 2016 day added before the new year began- this matches josephus that "the year begins" in spring- not only the jewish year as in exodus demonstrating the pharisees believed in the bible and not in the mishna which they claim existed orally yet deny- "years are counted from fall" in mishna but pharisees rejected that oral tradition until later jews abandoned tradition and made fall the new year for years but also the calendar started in spring as preserved in the name october:
march was the first month- so ap=2, ma=3, ju=4, ju=5, aug=6, se=7, oc=8 like octagon, no=9, dec=10 like decimal is a ten-based system and two more months until the twelfth month february that is how the months were named.
later jesus followers kept the names but changed the starting point to jesus birth in the end of december and then it stopped being the tenth month- yet the name was the same this causes a conflict! dec is for ten like decimal!
now it seems odd to add a day in the second month but that is because the christians changed the start point to jesus-day in december to start the year. the tenth month became the twelfth but the name was not changed. originaly october was the eighth month like octogan before jesus followers changed and the day was added to leap years the day before the new year began before march first. the calandar is called julian because of julius ceasar- so those who say julius added a month for july is a problem because he founded the calendar- and a twelve month calendar is easy to divide into quarters and thirds in contrats to a ten or eleven month calendaar a compromise is that augustus "changed-name" of one month to his own name or not.
