Complete Javanese Calendar for August 2026: Pasaran, Weton, and Neptu
Javanese people do not only use the Gregorian calendar in daily life, but also the Javanese-Islamic calendar created by Sultan Agung. This is because the calendar contains information on pasaran, weton and neptu, which serve as a guide for living.
What is a weton? Citing the book Antropologi dan Pluralisme Budaya Tanah Jawa dalam Perspektif Berbagai Bidang Keilmuan by the Community Service Team of MIT at UIN Walisongo Semarang, a weton is one’s day of birth. The day of birth is a combination of the ordinary day of the week and the pasaran day.
The ordinary days of the week number seven, such as Monday and Tuesday. Meanwhile, the pasaran is a Javanese cycle of five days, namely Legi, Pahing, Pon, Wage and Kliwon. Examples of weton include Friday Kliwon and Monday Pahing.
In Javanese culture, the weton can be used to divine all manner of affairs, such as wedding dates, romantic compatibility and the timing of moving house. In practice, the use of weton is closely tied to the neptu, or the numerical value of days in the Javanese calendar.
Below is the Javanese calendar for August 2026, complete with its pasaran, weton and neptu. Take note of the important information!
List of Neptu Values in the Javanese Calendar
As briefly mentioned above, the neptu is the value assigned to units of Javanese time, whether ordinary days, pasaran days, months or years. Taken from a thesis entitled Petungan Weton dalam Kitab Primbon Betaljemur Adammakna Perspektif Tradisi Jawa by Azza Lailatul Maulidiyah, here are the neptu values for the days of the Javanese week:
