the full Synaptic Reform Calendar
the Synaptic Reform Calendar Project consists of:
365-Day Calendar
360-Day Calendar

360-Day Calendar
* Divided into 72 periods of 5-Days
* 360-Day structure reflects those in 24 Hour, 60 Minute, 60 Second Day
* 360-Day structure reflects the 360 degrees by which we mark the Stars
* Measures the Precession of the Equinoxes
This Calendar is comprised of:
360 Calendar Days, per 365-Day Calendar Year
5 Intercalary Days, per 365-Day Calendar Year
1 Leap Year Day, periodically
360 Calendar Days
the 72 5-Day periods can be further arranged in groups of 4 or 6.
18 x 20 Days (4 x 5-Day period) or
12 x 30 Days (6 x 5-Day period)
Each of the 360 Days of this Calendar correspond to one of the 360 degrees into which the ecliptic has been divided. As of 1977, that puts the Sun in front of the Constellation Aries (according to its Astronomical boundaries) on April 19th.
Due to the Procession of the Equinoxes, the location of the Constellations change by 1 degree every 72 Years approximately. As such, the First Day of the 360-Day Calendar will also change every 72 years.
Implementation:
1st Day:
Saturday April 20 2013 = Sunday Day 7 Month 4 Year 0
Next:
Saturday April 21 2085 = Monday Day 8 Month 4 Year 72
Next:
Friday April 22 2157 = Tuesday Day 9 Month 4 Year 144
and so on
As the Precession is estimated at 1 degree every 71.6 Years, and the rate of change is not expected to remain consistent, shifts to the New Year’s Day may take place after 71 Years when necessary.
curiously,
1 degree = 72 Years = 25, 920 Calendar Days (of 360-Day Calendar)
360 degrees = 25, 920 Years

260-Day Calendar
* Approximates the time of human gestation
* Functions as a cog with the 365-Day and 360-Day Calendar
13-Day and XX-Day Cycles
This system traditionally uses 13 numbers and 20 glyphs or symbols. The roman numerals stand for the glyphs, as they are more widely familiar, and reflect certain visual features of the original. It is recommended that customized, progressive symbol-systems be developed to replace them.
The 260-Day Calendar’s days progress from Day-to-Day by increments of 1 of 13 and I of XX.
Day-to-Day Progression:
The Cycle of 1-13 and I-XX mesh together as follows to create a series of 260 distinct combinations from 1-I to 13-XX as follows:
| 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Day 0 | 1-I | 1-XIV | 1-VII | 1-XX |
| Day 1 | 2-II | 2-XV | 2-VIII | 2-I |
| Day 2 | 3-III | 3-XVI | 3-IX | 3-II |
| Day 3 | 4-IV | 4-XVII | 4-X | 4-III |
| Day 4 | 5-V | 5-XVIII | 5-XI | 5-IV |
| Day 5 | 6-VI | 6-XIX | 6-XII | 6-V |
| Day 6 | 7-VII | 7-XX | 7-XIII | 7-VI |
| Day 7 | 8-VIII | 8-I | 8-XIV | 8-VII |
| Day 8 | 9-IX | 9-II | 9-XV | 9-VIII |
| Day 9 | 10-X | 10-III | 10-XVI | 10-IX |
| Day 10 | 11-XI | 11-IV | 11-XVII | 11-X |
| Day 11 | 12-XII | 12-V | 12-XVIII | 12-XI |
| Day 12 | 13-XIII | 13-VI | 13-XIX | 13-XII |
and so on
Year-to-Year Progression:
For any given day of the 365-Day or 360-Day Year, the 260-Day Calendar Day increases by 1 of 13 and by V of XX. This pattern repeats itself every 52 Years.
The first day of the 260-Day Calendar, 1-I, which falls on Day 0, Month 0, of the 365-Day Calendar, progresses as follows from Year 2 to Year 3, 4, 5 and so on:
| Day 0 | Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 0 | 1-I | 2-II | 3-III | 4-IV | 5-V |
| Year 1 | 2-VI | 3-VII | 4-VIII | 5-IX | 6-X |
| Year 2 | 3-XI | 4-XII | 5-XIII | 6-XIV | 7-XV |
| Year 3 | 4-XVI | 5-XVII | 6-XVIII | 7-XIX | 8-XX |
| Year 4 | 5-I | 6-II | 7-III | 8-IV | 9-V |
| Year 5 | 6-VI | 7-VII | 8-VIII | 9-IX | 10-X |
| Year 6 | 7-XI | 8-XII | 9-XIII | 10-XIV | 11-XV |
| Year 7 | 8-XVI | 9-XVII | 10-XVIII | 11-XIX | 12-XX |
| Year 8 | 9-I | 10-II | 11-III | 12-IV | 13-V |
| Year 9 | 10-VI | 11-VII | 12-VIII | 13-IX | 1-X |
| Year 10 | 11-XI | 12-XII | 13-XIII | 1-XIV | 2-XV |
| Year 11 | 12-XVI | 13-XVII | 1-XVIII | 2-XIX | 3-XX |
| Year 12 | 13-I | 1-II | 2-III | 3-IV | 4-V |
Implementation:
Day 1-I
Monday December 22nd 2014 = Sunday Day 0 Month 0 Year 2
Lunar Calendar Component
Measures the Lunation from New Moon to New Moon, in cycles of 29 or 30 days, in Years of 12 or 13 Lunar Months
Measures the Metonic Cycle of 235 Lunations, which is approximately equivalent to 19 Years.
Implementation
Monday December 22nd 2014 = Sunday Day 0 Month 0 Year 2
New Moon Day 1 (29)
First Day of 235 Lunation : 19 Year Metonic Cycle
Chronological Calendar Component:
Zero Day
Gregorian: Friday December 21st 2012
each and every day, regardless of whether a Calendar Day, Intercalary Day or Leap Year Day, counts on the Chronological Calendar.
+ 1 for each Day after Zero Day
- 1 for each Day before Zero Day
