The Gregorian calendar, also called the Western calendar and the Christian calendar, is internationally the most widely accepted civil calendar which governs Europe, America and Africa.

It was introduced by Pope Gregory XIII, after whom the calendar was named, by a decree signed on 24 February 1582.
Before Pope Gregory invented the gregorian calendar, Rome was using the Julian Calendar which was put together by Julius caesar.


According to the Roman calendar (Gregorian calendar), all the months were dedicated and named in the honor of their pagan deities (gods), and this was a ritual done so that the energies of the month may reflect the spiritual environment of the deity they honor in the month.

The Julian calendar which was later succeeded by the Gregorian calendar was designed for the sake of counterfeiting the Jewish (Hebrew) calendar. Most of the festivals on the gregorian calendar were decreed by the first council of Nicaea in 325 AD. 


The months and festivals on the calendar were designed to honor the Roman pagan gods:
On the gregorian calendar, the pagan celebrations like Easter, Christmas, the period preparing the people for Christmas on the Christmas calendar etc, were all highlighted and enforced upon those who follow the calendar. 
This was done so that the catholic Roman church which had changed and taken the Christian believers from following the Hebrew calendar, may continue to have supremes and authority over the believers of Christ via their calendar called the “Gregorian calendar”.

The dates and some of the months on the gregorian calendar were named according to the Roman gods that the Romans worshiped.


For example; the sun was worshiped as the main supreme sun god in Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome etc, so the “sun day” became the day dedicated to the sun god, “Monday” was the day dedicated to the moon goddess, the month of July derives from the worship of Julius Caesar as god (deity). 

The Astrologic design of the gregorian calendar was a prototype taken from the Egyptian and Babylonian solar calendar.
