Hebrew Calendar and Mazzaroth Revisited

Today August 2, 2023, this is the 16th day of the 5th month, AV on the Hebrew Calendar. I sent the final draft to my publisher, Book Baby today! The journal will only be available as an eBook. My desire is to have the eBook available no later than Friday September 14 2023. This is the 29th day of the 6th month, Elul on the Hebrew Calendar.

The Hebrew calendar is floating, or more accurately, oscillates back and forth within the Gregorian calendar that most of the nations use while the Hebrew calendar is for the nation of Israel. The year 2019 was a leap year, called a Pregnant Year on the Hebrew calendar because they add an additional month called Adar 1 to the end of their calendar. About seven times within a nineteen-year span, which they add the extra month.

Most of the rest of the world experienced a leap year in 2020 whereby one day to the month of February. The Gregorian calendar only adds February 29. Why? The Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar that is 365.25 days in length. So that .25 of a day every 4 years (.25+.25+.25+.25=1 Day) an additional day must be added.
