Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.

The day begins at sunrise where you are.
Choose N or S, and W or E. The Americas are west (W); Europe, Africa and Asia are east (E). Your location stays on this computer.
Sunrise times are shown by your own device's clock, in your time zone, with daylight saving time when it applies. If you enter a place in another time zone, its days are counted correctly, but its sunrise time is still shown by your clock.

How this calendar counts

Rules and sources
  • New Year is the first day of Chadashel (spring), the day of the spring equinox, and always the 4th day of the week (Enoch, Bedal 13:62–63 and n. 172; Handbook p. 337).
  • Seasons: Chadashel (spring), Osherel (summer), Gavahel (fall), Shabathiel (winter), each 13 weeks = 91 days, each beginning on the 4th day of the week (Bedal 13:62, 13:83; Handbook pp. 338–339).
  • Purification Day is day 91 of every season, "a day of the week", used "to prepare to receive the gift and blessing of the next season" (Bedal 13:83; Handbook p. 339).
  • Anokeesed's Day follows Winter 91 every year: "not a day of the week but … a day of the year only" (Bedal 13:84). It is the last day of the year, a jubilee of days after the Day of Forgiveness (Bedal 13:150).
  • Motsah's Day: "every fourth year … an additional extra day after the day of my Father" (Bedal 13:84; Handbook p. 338). New Year's Day is always on the spring equinox (Handbook p. 337), so the equinox sets the year in which Motsah's Day comes.
  • The day begins at sunrise (Bedal 13:81; Handbook p. 337). "When the time for the equinox falls after midnight, it actually would count as the day prior for us" (Handbook p. 342). The day begins at sunrise wherever you are, so this calendar uses your location (or, until you give one, an estimate from your computer's time zone). At the spring equinox the sun rises at about six o'clock local sun time at every latitude, so the New Year depends only on how far east or west you are.
  • Holy days are a jubilee of days (50) apart, each falling on the next day of the week (Bedal 13:120–150; Handbook pp. 334, 337–340). The 49 days before each are for preparation (Handbook p. 334).
  • Sabbath: rest from labor; "your only task on that day may be to collect and to set in order your elements of righteousness" (Bedal 13:86); eat only what was prepared the day before; let no rock be moved (Handbook pp. 181–182). The Handbook also names ceremonial Sabbaths on Summer 22, Fall 83 and Winter 91 (pp. 344, 356, 363).
  • The time of the spring equinox is calculated by the standard astronomical method, the same times given in the Handbook's equinox table (p. 342).

Calendar of Anokeesed

The Calendar of Anokeesed keeps time as the Books of Remembrance do. Based on the ADAHIEL Seven Jubilee Calendar, it shows today’s date by season, named week, and Jubilee cycle, from Chadashel through Shabathiel, including the unnumbered Purification Day that closes each season.
