Months
The Season of Harvest consists of four 30-day months plus one little month of 5 or 6 days. This little month was considered to be an intercalary period, which brought the season of 365 days. These months can be either referred to by number (months 9 through 13) or by names as follows:
- Month 9 = Pashons
- Month 10 = Paoni
- Month 11 = Epip
- Month 12 = Mesori
- Month 13 = Pi Kogi Enavot (the little month)
The Season of Harvest is preceded by the Season of the Emergence and is followed by the Season of the Inundation.

Famous quotes containing the word months:
“I have nothing but wastes and wilds of self-translation before me for many miserable months to come.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“My time has been passed viciously and agreeably; at thirty-one so few years months days hours or minutes remain that “Carpe Diem” is not enough. I have been obliged to crop even the seconds—for who can trust to tomorrow?”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“Reminiscences, even extensive ones, do not always amount to an autobiography.... For autobiography has to do with time, with sequence and what makes up the continuous flow of life. Here, I am talking of a space, of moments and discontinuities. For even if months and years appear here, it is in the form they have in the moment of recollection. This strange form—it may be called fleeting or eternal—is in neither case the stuff that life is made of.”
—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
