This depends on what counts as active use! I can name six calendars still in reasonably-active use offhand and at least six more that were still in use at some point after WW2 (some of which might still be used in contexts I'm less familiar with).

...actually no, make that seven: Christian (or however we're calling the calendar used by most of the world), lunar Islamic, solar Islamic (Iran), Hebrew, Thai, Japanese [regnal], Ethiopian. And that's just the ones that are actively used on circulating coins. ...darn, forgot Nepalese. Eight. I'm pretty sure there's a few more that I'm missing at the moment. [Ugh, just remembered Taiwanese. And I think North Korea has one too?]

(The after-WW2 ones: the funky Iranian one they used for a while when they went away from the Islamic years, Korean, Saka [various Indian princely states], Seleucid [Yemenite Jews*], and I forgot what the other two were; possibly some of the calendars I ended up reclassifying as currently used. A bunch more briefly actively used calendars became obsolete as a result of WW2. Vatican used to date their coins in papal regnal years [usually in parallel with the AD date] at least into the reign of John XXIII [1958-63 AD] but I'm not sure if they still do? [Looked it up; apparently technically they still do but only on commemoratives rather than general-issue euro coinage.] I think some other regnal and/or revolutionary years also came up in a few contexts. Mongolia comes to mind for the latter specifically as used on coins but AFAIK the latest coins to use that calendar were contemporary with WW2.)

I do have to admit that (I feel like) we should probably use more stuff like "since the foundation of the republic".

(And also yeah, if the state of the world changes sufficiently to make calendars counting by years impractical and/or inconvenient, we might indeed end up with a situation where people legitimately don't know which year it is. Or for that matter with a situation where the answer to which year it is depends on whose standard on year length you're following.)

(Alternately we could, even without all that much change, end up in a situation to the effect of "of course we know which year it is, it's the consulate of Catulus and Lepidus**", whereas the local default calendric reference does not actually include any kind of meaningful numeric order of the years.)

*) Technically the Jewish legal code explicitly prescribes the use of the Seleucid calendar in some legal contexts! But apparently this was only kept up into the post-WW1 era as a living tradition in Yemen.

[Which reminds me, "different calendars legally used for different purposes" is also a thing that I feel like there really should be more of. I believe British statutes are still officially numbered in regnal years, and Israel insists on doing holidays by the Judaic calendar even as (e.g.) ages of majority had been relegated to the Christian calendar, but other than that and the Seleucid thing I'm failing to think of any other examples.]

**) This is actually [part of] the date of the oldest known inscription in Pompeii. I wonder if the people who found that had to look up the consuls in a table; it's about 150 years prior to the period you'd expect Pompeian inscriptions to have been written in.

It only happens rarely but I'm always slightly annoyed at sci-fi stories that are like "oh we don't know what year it is anymore"

Bullshit. Humans love calendars, and there's nothing special about the gregorian xalendar's epoch. Just make a new one.

At least in The Matrix I think we can interpret the canon as there being a new calendar, Morpheus just never bothers telling it to Neo because "years since the founding of Zion" would be meaningless to him. He just says we don't know the gregorian date.

But Transmetropolitan has no excuse. There's no year and no one has come up with a replacement epoch.

The Hindu new year will begin with an auspicious coincidence, and the luck of these zodiac signs will shine brightly.

The Hindu new year will begin with an auspicious coincidence, and the luck of these zodiac signs will shine brightly. Hindu Nav Varsh 2023: Every year the Hindu New Year begins on the Pratipada date of Shuklapaksha of Chaitra month. Chaitra Navratri starts from this day. This time the Hindu New Year will start from 22 March, Wednesday. In the Hindu New Year, Mercury will be the king and Venus…

Minor correction - these coins are indeed dated 2012, but this date is in the Nepalese calendar (Vikram Samvat), which corresponds to 1955 in the European calendar.

(Which probably makes them more cool! But if you thought that they were only made ten years ago - unfortunately [or maybe fortunately?] that's not actually the case.)

4 Paisa, 2012 Nepal

Denomination: Nepalese Rupee (in circulation)

Composition: Brass bullet casings

Yes, you read that one right. These coins are minted from a deposit of WWII era bullet casings discovered in 1950. Because of the limited number of bullet casings available to mint the coins, these holed coins were only minted for one year.

"On the full moon day of the bright fortnight in the month of Jyeshtha, in the Vikram Samvat year 1455 (1398 AD), on a Monday at dawn, God Kabir appeared in a radiant form. He appeared as a child on a lotus flower in the Lahartara pond of Kashi. Sage Ashtanand witnessed this event. From there, Neeru and Neema took God Kabir to their home."

Annakut at home 🙏🏼

My wife made so many dishes, I had to spread the food across several area of my seva in the puja room. (Photos of other places not shown here.)

Kids wanted Bhel Puri for the new years. So we made a separate Annakut of Bhel items, plus fruits, in the sitting room. Well, this is 2023!

Welcome Vikram Samvat 2080!

Chaitra Navratri 2023: Rituals,Yoga, Days And Pujas To Perform

Navratri is a significant Hindu festival that is celebrated for nine nights on the Indian subcontinent during autumn. Traditionally, there are four seasonal Navratris, and the Sharada or Shardiya Navratri is celebrated after the monsoon season in remembrance of the Divine Feminine Devi. During this time, Hindus perform the customs and rites of Ghatasthapana and Sandhi Puja, which are considered to be the two most frequently observed muhurtas. Chaitra Navratri 2023 is particularly significant as it falls during the Shardiya Navratri, and Hindus observe the customs and rituals of Ghatasthapana and Sandhi Puja during this time.

The Navratri puja, also known as Vasanta Navratri, is a celebration that honors the sacred feminine Devi or Durga. Devotees worship and honor Divine Durga in her nine forms during this festival. The word "Vasanta" is derived from the Sanskrit language and signifies spring, which is when this Navratri occurs. It takes place during the Chaitra lunar month, which typically falls between March and April after the winter season. In some regions, this festival is celebrated after the spring season, while in others, it is observed after the harvest season. It is also significant as it marks the first day of the Hindu calendar, making it the Hindu New Year according to the Vikram Samvat calendar.

Significance of Chaitra Navratri

Navratri Puja is believed to bring immense wealth and fortune to those who seek the blessings of Goddess Durga. However, there are certain rules that the devotees must follow strictly, which include fasting without consuming grains, maintaining cleanliness, performing aarti and performing Ghatasthapana.
