Artistic representation of Earth in thirteen positions around the Sun
An open initiative

13 months.
A year in balance.

A community exploring a simpler, more regular way to organize time: 13 months, 28 days each, and calendars that remain comparable forever.

The idea

A predictable calendar, year after year.

The International Fixed Calendar keeps the Gregorian year's 365 or 366 days, but distributes them regularly. Every date always falls on the same weekday.

01 / 03

Thirteen equal months

Each month has exactly 28 days: four complete weeks that always begin on Sunday.

02 / 03

A month called Sol

Sol sits between June and July, completing thirteen months without changing the seasons.

03 / 03

Days outside the week

Year Day and, in leap years, Leap Day belong to no week.

Everything fits. Always.

All thirteen months share exactly the same structure. Intercalary days preserve the weekly cycle.

Why try it

Less irregularity. More clarity.

[ 4×7 ]

Fair comparisons

Every month has the same number of weeks and weekends—ideal for analysis and planning.

[ = ]

Memorable dates

A date always falls on the same weekday. Learn it once, use it forever.

[ 13 ]

Open design

We are not asking to replace anything tomorrow. We build tools to experiment in parallel.

Hard questions

Criticism welcome.

Doesn't it break the continuous week?+

Yes. Intercalary days sit outside the week, an important objection for some religious traditions. We present it transparently and explore the calendar as a parallel system, not an imposition.

What happens to birthdays and contracts?+

Every date has an unambiguous Gregorian equivalent. Conversion tools support both systems during any experiment.

Do the seasons change?+

No. The year retains Gregorian length and leap-year rules; only the grouping of days changes.
