What made the most sense to me was to start by figuring out when the Month of Darkness is. It's the only month in the calendar that has a pretty clear natural indicator of when it occurs. In the Northern Hemisphere, the darkest month (period with least amount of sunlight) is the two weeks before and two weeks after the Winter Solstice, which usually falls on December 21 or 22. So, I transposed Dec. 21/22 to 14/15 Month of Darkness and that gives the following correspondences:

July 21 = 1 Month of Earth

August 18 = 1 Month of Harvest

September 15 = 1 Month of Nets

October 13 = 1 Month of Rain

November 10 = 1 Month of Wind

December 8 = 1 Month of Darkness

January 5 = 1 Month of Cold

February 2 = 1 Month of Ice

March 2 = 1 Month of Hearths

March 30 = 1 Month of Seeds

April 27 = 1 Month of Timber

May 25 = 1 Month of Clans

June 22 = 1 Month of Songs

July 20 = Fugue Feast
