Year 8 and the 9 Months

To help understand R' Ari Goldwag's incredible חידוש about the year we're in, I created this table below.  If you haven't watched his video yet, it's highly recommended.

Yellow for regular years

Cyan for leap years

Another point that I will make is that October 7th is always (in this and the previous century) the end of Tekufat Tamuz and the beginning of Tekufat Tishri.  This year, since next year is a secular leap year, the Tekufa ended at 9PM on October 7th.  Therefore, Shemini Atzeret, which is when the massacre of Jews took place השם יקום דמם, was the last full day of Tekufat Tamuz.

(As an aside, the last time Shemini Atzeret fell out on the last full day of Tekufat Tamuz was when it fell out on October 6th, 1966, a few months before the Six Day War.)

If the 9 months started at the very beginning of Tekufat Tamuz, and we're beginning to "see the pregnancy" now, there will be an interesting 6 months ahead, when Tekufat Nisan begins right before Rosh Hodesh Nisan.
