And instead of calling them "weeks", we could call them by the much more self-explanatory term "tendays".
You can simplify it a little bit by putting the intercalary days between months, rather than using them for the solstices. We can put Midwinter between January 30 and February 1 and Midsummer between July 30 and August 1, in the northern hemisphere.
For the sake of putting it in a more user-friendly location, our leap day should be in the summer for the northern hemisphere (where most of the population is). So put it the day after Midsummer.
The only thing I would do differently from the Calendar of Harptos is that, like you, I would use New Year's Day as the 5th annual intercalary day.
Intercalary is one of those words I never expect to hear outside of the https://app.fantasy-calendar.com userbase
Ok, I've never heard of that site before, but I am definitely in its target market. Thanks for sharing!
You're very welcome! It's ultra useful for my dnd campaigns, I try to share it any chance I get
the equinoxes and solstices are roughly 90 days apart anyway so we can do both :)
Calendar of Harptos actually influenced my post hehe
Right, but my point was that we shouldn't use either equinoxes or solstices, because they occur around the 21st of their month at present. It's better to put the intercalary days in between months so that a single month doesn't get awkwardly split up.
