Monthly CalendarClick image to enlarge
Monthly data
Each header includes the year, underneath which is listed the Japanese era name, month (Japanese refers to months in numerical order instead of by name), the English name of the month, followed by the traditional Japanese name of the month.
Daily boxes
Each box is lightly printed with a graph design to make it easy to fill in a full day's worth of plans. You can also take full advantage of the graph design by drawing out sections to allocate plans or entries visually.
Week numbers
The monthly calendars include the number of the week. The formula we use begins counting with the first week in January that includes a Thursday.
Free space and check boxes
The monthly calendars include free space below and to the left for taking notes, making plans or decorating the calendars with stickers and washi tape. The right page includes four checkboxes for listing goals and commitments for the month ahead.
Moon phases
While the daily pages feature illustrations of the moon phase of that particular day, these calendars only include new moons (●) and full moons (○).
Rokuyo (Traditional Japanese calendar)
The monthly calendar days are labeled with rokuyo, a cycle of six days said to predict good or bad fortune that day. The labels are commonly found on Japanese calendars and used to plan weddings and funerals.
