Have you ever wondered about the calendar we use? Why New Years is when it is, or how it came to be that the days of the week are named after the seven traditional astrological planets?

I kind of wish we still celebrated New Years in March, but I’m okay with the switch to using the Sun as our guide. Those extra months in the Lunar calendars sound really confusing.
