Quote-
To Christians who observe Christmas: I challenge you to observe this holiday exactly as the authors of the Gospels documented it, no more, no less.

According to the Calendar in His Word and in His Sky, His birth was commemorated on August 16th, in 2015.
That was the 1st day of the Father’s 6th month.

A day 2000 years ago where the sun clothed the woman and the moon was under her feet (Revelation 12:1)

Today that sign in the Heavens on His birth has moved to the first day of His 7th month, the Feast of Trumpets- that was September 26 in 2014.( a review of a calendar would show judaism was close)

In 2015, because there is an extra month in His lunar-solar calendar (to have His Sun and Moon catch up to each other in His Calendar), that sign (Revelation 12:1) was seen on October 14th. That day represented the first day of His 8th month.

Those 1st days would be called day of the new moon (new Moon Day) in His Word. And quite a story unfolds.

Not sure folks would like that it is found to be nowhere near December 25. That tradition of man blinds believers to Truth that would reflect the Word Made Flesh..

Quite a study that has zero to do with St. Nicholas or Rome’s calendar. And everything to do with His Word and His Creation that points to Him!

December 25 this year will be the 13th day of the Father’s 10th month. It will be a day that commemorates the 5th Day of His Work Week, when He created the creatures of the waters and the winged birds of the heavens. A work day. Not holy. But certainly prophetic.

Your summary is appreciated & beneficial. But, given that the dominant calendar throughout recent centuries is far more attuned to human activity, it isn't surprising that the true dates have been "lost" in common usage.

I think that it is also valuable to remember that to people living in the northern hemisphere Christmas comes precisely when it is most needed and represents both the Son and the saint properly if not "correctly".
The solstice represents the promise of longer days and new crops just as Christ's birth was the promise of salvation, the following equinox represents the fact that winter has passed and life continues - hence Christmas represents the promise at the darkest & dreariest time while Easter really does highlight rebirth.

I'd be more than happy to see more emphasis on religious roots of both days; I don't need magic bunny rabbits & bogus sale prices on stuff I'd never buy otherwise, but I/We do need some cheer and hope in the dead of winter.

I think the important thing is *that* we celebrate His birth, not *when* we celebrate it.
