Now we are not commanded to fast or worship the next six days (16th -21st), but we are ordered to dwell in booths seven days from the 15th to the 21st (Lev. 23: 40-43) Now we are ordered to keep the eighth (22nd), counting from the fifteenth day, which is the 22nd, another worship day. Counting on, with the instructions of the Heavenly Father there is no Holy worship day on the 23rd through the 28th, but the pattern of rest and worship after six workdays applies on the 29th, unless you use man’s calendar.
There is a New Moon rebuilding and sometimes it starts after the day does, making the next evening and morning the first day of the rebuilding or New Moon. Sometimes the new month starts rebuilding before the 29th ends, so the first evening and morning after the rebuilding would be the first day of the New Moon giving us 29- and 30- day months.
The scripture teaches that the New Moon is a worship day. It is a day of no buying and selling and not one of the ordinary workdays (Ez. 46:1, Isa. 66:23, Amos 8:5). After that, there is no commandment not to work on day two of the Moon through day seven, but we must take an intermission on day eight for worship because it is the seventh day or Sabbath from the first workday after the New Moon worship day. Then, six more workdays, then rest and worship on the 15th, etc. This goes on year after year from one New Moon to another and one Sabbath to another, even into the New Heaven and New Earth, which He will make. (Isa.66:23)

Our Heavenly Father gives us specific instructions as to which days of the year to set apart for rest and worship. We are not to add to or to diminish from what He orders, by inventing a calendar of our own. So, changing the Laws and Times of worship as spoken of by Daniel the Prophet, concerning the Roman Empire (Daniel 7:25) and fulfilled by Julius Caesar the Roman Emperor, where he removed the Moon as a basis for the calendar. We must speak where the Scriptures speaks, and be silent when it is silent.
The Roman calendar is a recent invention, an evil instrument designed to confuse and destroy the true times and Appointments of YHWH, just as the false fires sent up by the enemy to get us off the true Sabbaths, and New Moons. To verify, check your calendar to see if the first day of the month lines up with the first day of the Moon (month) on YHWH’s calendar that He gave to man “and they (sun, Moon, and stars) shall be for signs and seasons, days and years.” (Gen 1:14) In other words, they shall beacon you for the appointment days of YHWH. Appointments mean seasons (from the King James Version). signs—means beacons. (See concordance)
To further prove the Appointments or intermissions occur after the six working days (not counting the New Moon) save the tenth day in the seventh month, which breaks up the six workdays and the twenty-first day in the first Moon each year. The second day of the New Moon is always the first workday and the Sabbaths are always on the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th, without exception.
The first pinpointed Sabbath is in Exodus, chapter 16 and is on the 22nd day of the Moon (Ex. 16:22, 23) and, if you count backwards the second day of the Moon is the first workday, and the Sabbaths are on the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th.
