The Celts or any ancient race tracked the calendar agriculturaly.
Therefore, Oct 31/Nov 1 is the beginning of the new year because
agriculturaly everything had been harvested or killed and smoked,
winter had set in and that was a time of rest from the summer work.
This set the cycle for a new year. Christmas, Easter, Halloween,
and May Day are remenants of that Celtic race. Call it an genetic
memory.
As time marched on, we still celebrate the agricultural celebrations
but we count time differently beginning with the formation of the
Julian calendar in 45 BC. Therefore, the seventh month would be
July as the prophecy was modernly produced by Trewlawney herself.
