01/How it works

Every date lands on the same weekday, every year.

13 × 28 + 1 = 365 days.

Add 9,700 to any Gregorian year.

01

13 months of 28 days

Every month is exactly four weeks. 13 × 28 = 364 days, so every date lands on the same weekday every year.

02

The year opens at the equinox

Aeterna, the Day Out of Time, falls on the vernal equinox. It belongs to no month and no week — it simply opens the year.

03

Three days of work, one of rest

The week is four days long. Rest arrives on a fixed rhythm rather than an arbitrary one.

04

Counted from the Holocene

Year 0 is 9,700 BCE, the start of our geological epoch — so the count encompasses all of human civilisation. Add 9,700 to any Gregorian year.
