The Legends Behind Why February Has Only 28 Days (Except for Leap Years)

Legends, May Make February the Most Interesting Month

Yet, it is doubtful if this proposed change will ever happen. Math is not the center point of our calendar, it never has been and probably never will be the center point. Our culture and our religious beliefs still house many beliefs that is engraved by lunar-solar roots (take astrology for instance).

Do you know what was the main purpose our ancestors had for inventing the calendar? They used it as a means to help with their farming. They needed to mark which days were the best for planning certain crops.

Maybe it doesn't really matter what the reasoning as to why February became the shortest month of the year is. Because as long as we don't know for sure, we can enjoy all the legends behind this short, but maybe most talked about month of the year.
