CALENDAR KEY: The Mind-Peg Method

Go Back      

The values of the months are set the following way:
 

Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
1 4 4 0 2 5 0 3 6 1 4 6

As this is probably the most difficult part of the formula, you can alternatively use a simple rhyming mind-peg method to memorise it:  

This mind-peg method takes a short while to master, but once you master it, you'll never forget it.

The month value links to a specific consonant that links to visual imagery (first consonant is the value/the syllable rhymes): 

0 -  "S"  [think of sword instead of nought]

1 -  "T"  [   " "       tonne      " "            one]

2 -  "N"  [   " "      new         " "            two]

3 -  "M"  [  " "      me           " "          three]

4 -  "R"  [   " "      roar          " "           four] 

5 -  "L"  [   " "       live           " "           five]

6 -  "K"  [   " "      kicks          " "            six] 

Firstly memorize the numbers with their associated, rhyming words (use the imagery to assist with memorizing).
The first consonant in the memorised word is the key.

Now remember the following words in sequence (note the bold consonants): 
True rose, no lies, meek trick

Now, according to the consonants, you have your month values in sequence (t, r, r, s, n, l, s, m, k, t, r, k). 
All that is needed now is to remember this sentence and the associated numerical values.
