Which month does Jewish 4/20 occur? Tammuz? Tevet? Another one?

@sickmatter I'd say Tevet if you only count Rosh Hashanah as beginning the year. If you go with all the halachic new years this gets a little more complicated.

@acarson maybe this should count four months after Shevat due to trees? 🤔

@sickmatter OK so this is still a bit more complicated because of the leap years which add an extra month. But, normally would be 15 Tamuz since the new year in Shevat is on the 15th and not the 1st. In leap year it would be 15 Iyar.

@acarson so then what date is four months later on the 20th? Or would it make more sense to align the holiday with a full moon?

@sickmatter Oh yeah I guess it would need to be the actual 20th. So, 20 Tamuz or 20 Iyar depending on the year, or 20 Tevet if you just go with Rosh Hashanah as the beginning of the year. But then, any day is a good day to get high, so ...

@sickmatter @acarson Thank you. I’ve been waiting for you two to come to that conclusion!

@AlliFlowers @sickmatter Lol things take a little longer until I get enough caffeine in my system.
