The current Javanese calendar was inaugurated by Sultan Agung of Mataram in the Gregorian year 1633. Prior, Javanese had used the Hindu calendar or Saka calendar which that starts in 78 CE and uses the solar cycle for claculating time ^[2]. Sultan Agung's Javanese calendar retained the Saka calendar date of origin but differs by using the same lunar year measurement system as the Islamic calendar (based on the lunar month).

The Javanese calendar contains multiple, overlapping separate measurements of times- called cycles. These are -the five-day Pasaran cycle of five days, -the common Gregorian seven-day week, -the month-cycles of Mangsa and Wulan month-long cycles -the year-cycles Tahun cycles of years - and octo-ennia (8 year)cycles called Windu.

The Cycles of Time

Pasaran cycle

Signs of the Pasaran cycle

The pasaran cycle is so termed from the Javanese 'pasaran'-literally 'marketplace-related. The pasaran cycle and week lasts five days- with villagers gathering communally at the local market to meet socially, engage in commerce, buying and selling wares, produce, foods, etc. A marketplace is the space, actual or metaphorical, in which a market operates. ...

Itinerant merchants would visit different villages each day of the Pasaran week. Some hypothesise that the length of the week/cycle is related to the number of fingers on the hand.^[3].

The Pasaran week is divided into days as follows, please note the (ngoko and krama in parentheses): This article does not cite any references or sources. ... This article does not cite any references or sources. ...

1. Legi (Manis)
2. Pahing (Pait)
3. Pon (Petak)
4. Wagé (Cemeng)
5. Kliwon (Asih)

The origin of these terms is unclear, and their etymology remains obscure. The days are most commonly referred to by their ngoko names. Possibly, the names may be derived from indigenous gods, like the European and Asian names^[3]. An ancient Javanese manuscript illustrates the week with five human figures (shown at right below the day names): a man seizing a suppliant by the hair, a woman holding a horn to receive an offering, a man pointing a drawn sword at another, a woman holding agricultural produce, and a man holding a spear leading a bull.^[4] This article is about days of the week. ...

Additionally, Javanese consider these days' names to have a mystical relation to colors and cardinal direction: Legi represents white and East Pahing represents red and South Pon represents yellow and West Wage represents black and North Kliwon represents blurred colors and focus and 'center'.

Markets no longer operate under this traditional Pasaran cycle- instead pragmatically remaining open every day of the Gregorian week. Javanese astrological belief dictates that individual characteristics, future etc., are attributable to the coincidence of the Pasaran day and the 'common' weekdays of the Islamic calendar derived week cycle on that person's birthday. Additionally, great meaning is often attributed to specific 7-day week and Pasaran weekday concurrences. For example in Surakarta, there is Pasar Legi, Pasar Pon, and Pasar Kliwon, which had markets on the given days. The Pasaran week is an integral part of the Wetonan cycle that Javanese find of greatest interest in their astrological interpretations.

Seven-day week

The seven-day long week cycle (dina pitu, "seven days") is derived from the Islamic calendar. The names of the days of the week in Javanese are derived from their Arabic counterparts, namely: This article does not cite any references or sources. ... Arabic redirects here. ...

Wetonan cycle

The Wetonan cycle superimposes the five-day pasaran cycle with the seven-day week. Each cycle lasts 35 days. The coincindental dates of interest are read as weekday name and Pasaran day name and called Weton.

The Wetonan cycle is especially important for divinatory systems, and imporetnat celebrations, rights of passage, commemorations and so forth are held on days considered to be auspicious- known as the Weton.

An especially prominent example widely still taught at primary schools is the Weton for the Proclamation of the Republic of Indonesia on August 17, 1945,was a Jumat legi, coinciding with the Weton for the birth and death of Sultan Agung, considered one of the greatest kings of Java history, ^[5]. is the 229th day of the year (230th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Friday Legi is considered an important night for pilgrimage.^[6] There are also taboos that relate to the cycle; for example, the ritual dance bedhaya can only be performed on Thursday Kliwon.^[7] This article is about cultural prohibitions in general; for other uses, see Taboo (disambiguation). ... The bedhaya (also written as bedoyo, beḍaya, and various other transliterations) is a sacred ritualized dance of Java, Indonesia, associated with the royal palaces of Yogyakarta and Surakarta. ...

The coincidence of the Psaaran day with the common day on the day of birth is considered by Javanese to indicate the personal characteristics of that person, similar to the Western Zodiak and planetary positioning in Western astrology.^[8] Western astrology is the system of astrology most popular in Western countries. ...

Pawukon

Main article: Pawukon

[Pawukon]] is a 210-day cycle related to Hindu tradition. Though most associated with Bali Java refers to it for special purposes. The calendar consists of concurrent weeks, and has a set of ten weeks- which have a duration of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 days. The first day of the year is considered the first day of all ten weeks. As 210 is not divisible by 4, 8, or 9, extra days must be added to the 4-, 8-, and 9-day weeks. SENIM SELASA RABU KAMIS JUMAT SABTU MINGGU The Pawukon is a 210 day calendar that has its origins in the Hindu religion in Bali, Indonesia. ... This article is about the Indonesian island. ...

Dates

For timekeeping, days are numbered within the lunar month (wulan) as is common in other calendar systems. The date indicates the change in the moon, and symbolizes the life of a human in the world. This process of revolving life is known as cakra manggilingan or heru cakra. On the first day of the month, when the moon is small, it is compared to a newborn baby. The 14th day, called Purnama Sidhi (full moon), represents a married adult. The next day, called Purnama, occurs as the moon begins to wane. The 20th day, Panglong, symbolizes the point at which people begin to lose their memory. The 25th day, Sumurup, represents the point at which the adult requires care like when they were young. The 26th day, Manjing, represents the return of the human to his or her origin.^[9]

Cycles of months

Pranata Mangsa

The solar year is divided into twelve periods (mangsa) of unequal length. Its origin lies in agriculture. The names of the first ten months are simply the ordinal numbers from 1 to 10, although the names of the 11th and 12th is unclear.^[10] The cycle begins near the summer solstice, around the middle of the dry season in Java. In set theory, ordinal, ordinal number, and transfinite ordinal number refer to a type of number introduced by Georg Cantor in 1897, to accommodate infinite sequences and to classify sets with certain kinds of order structures on them. ... “Summer solstice” redirects here. ...

In the nineteenth century, the pranata mangsa was much better known among Javanese than the civil or religious year, described below.^[12] The cycle is clearly of Javanese origin, since the specific application to their climate does not match other territories in the Indonesian archipelago, as well as the usage of Javanese names for the months.^[13] Although the cycle matches the weather pattern well, it is still clearly somewhat arbitrary, as can be seen by the fact that the lengths of the first and last month, the second and eleventh, and so on, match.^[14]

The pranata mangsa can be used to predict personality traits in a similar manner to sun signs in Western astrology. It is not widely used anymore for divination, but some practitioners use it as well as the other cycles in their divination.^[1] Western astrology employs the tropical zodiac which divides the ecliptic into twelve signs of equal length starting at the first point of Aries, which is defined as the point at which the ecliptic (the apparent path of the Sun through the heavens) crosses the celestial equator at the spring equinox. ... For other uses, see Divination (disambiguation). ...

Wulan

Each lunar year (tahun) is divided into a series of twelve wulan ("months", of 29 or 30 days each). This is similar to the use of months in the Islamic calendar. The names of the month are given below (in krama/ngoko):

1. Warana/Sura (30 days)
2. Wadana/Sapar (29 days)
3. Wijanga/Mulud (30 days)
4. Wiyana/Bakda Mulud (29 days)
5. Widada/Jumadil Awal (30 days)
6. Widarpa/Jumadil Akhir (29 days)
7. Wilarpa/Rejeb (30 days)
8. Wahana/Ruwah (29 days)
9. Wanana/Pasa (30 days)
10. Wurana/Sawal (29 days)
11. Wujana/Sela (30 days)
12. Wujala/Besar (29 or 30 days, depending on the length of the tahun, see below)

The cycle of months is considered metaphorically to represent the cycle of human life. The first nine months represent gestation before birth, while the tenth month represents the human in the world, the eleventh the end of his or her existence, and the twelfth the return to where he or she came from. The cycle thus goes from one spark or conception (rijal) to another, traversing through the void (suwung).^[9] Gestation is the carrying of an embryo or fetus inside a female viviparous animal. ...

Year designation

The Shalivahana era, which started in 78 CE and continues to be used on Bali, was used in Hindu times on Java, and for well over a century after the appearance of Islam on Java. When Sultan Agung adopted the Islamic lunar calendar in 1633 CE, he did not adopt the Anno Hegirae to designate those years, but instead continued the count of the Shalivahana era, which was 1555 at the time.^[15] As a result, the Anno Javanico does not in effect count from any time. Saka era, is used with Hindu calendars, the Indian national calendar, and the Cambodian Buddhist calendar. ... The Islamic calendar or Muslim calendar (also called Hijri calendar, Arabic التقويم الهجري) is the calendar used to date events in many predominantly Muslim countries, and used by Muslims everywhere to determine the proper day on which to celebrate Islamic holy days. ...

Cycles of years

Eight tahun makes up a windu. A single windu lasts for 81 repetitions of the wetonan cycle, or 2,835 days (about 7 years 9 months in the Gregorian calendar). Note that the tahun are lunar years, and of shorter length than Gregorian years. The names of the years in the cycle of windu are as follows (in krama/ngoko):

1. Purwana/Alip (354 days)
2. Karyana/Ehé (354 days)
3. Anama/Jemawal (355 days)
4. Lalana/Jé (354 days)
5. Ngawanga/Dal (355 days)
6. Pawaka/Bé (354 days)
7. Wasana/Wawu (354 days)
8. Swasana/Jimakir (355 days)

The windu are then grouped into a cycle of four:

1. Windu Adi
2. Windu Kunthara
3. Windu Sengara
4. Windu Sancaya

The cycles of wulan, tahun, and windu derive from the Saka calendar. The Indian national calendar (sometimes called Saka calendar) is the official civil calendar in use in India. ...

Windu are no longer used much in horoscopy, but there is evidence that there were previously used by court officials to predict trends. The passing of a windu is often seen as a milestone and deserving a slametan ritual feast).^[1]

Dino Mulyo

Dino Mulyo (literally "noble days") are celebrated by worshipping Gusti, the creator of life and the universe. Practitioners of traditional Javanese spiritual teachings have preserved five noble days:^[9]

• Satu Suro, the first of Sura, the New Year
• Aboge (from A - alip (first year), Bo - rebo (Wednesday), and Ge - Wage of the pasaran), celebrated on Wednesday Wage in the year of alip
• Daltugi (from Dal - Dal (fifth year), tu - setu (Saturday), and Gi - Legi of the pasaran), celebrated on Saturday Legi in the year of Dal
• Hanggara Asih (Tuesday Kliwon)
• Dino Purnomo: Jemuah Legi/Sukra Manis (Friday Legi)
