Solar Calendar

A solar calendar is a system that organizes days based on the Earth's orbit around the Sun, typically lasting one year. It divides the year into months, weeks, and days, aligning with the changing seasons. For example, the Gregorian calendar, widely used today, has 12 months totaling 365 days, with a leap year adding an extra day every four years to account for the fractional day in the Earth's orbit. This system helps societies track time accurately and plan agricultural activities, events, and daily life, reflecting the natural rhythm of the seasons.
