type="cite">The length of the year is the period of revolution of the
Earth about the Sun. You could use the geometry of the Earth's orbit to
come up with some clever reason for "phi day" to fall on a particular
day of the year; that seems more satisfying (at least to me) than
choosing a day based on the decimal expansion of phi, or some other
non-geometric means.
<br>
<br>
For example, at any moment, there is a unique rectangle that can be
inscribed in the plane of the Earth's orbit such that two of the
rectangle's sides are given by the major axis and the minor axis of the
Earth's elliptical orbit about the Sun, with one corner of the
rectangle given by the Sun, and the opposite corner of the rectangle
given by the Earth. There are eight moments in each year at which that
rectangle is of the correct proportions to form a golden rectangle.
Perhaps someone wants to calculate on what dates those eight moments of
the year fall. Or you could use the geometry of the solar system (on
which our whole calendar is based) in other clever ways to pick out
certain days of the year in which some proportion of distances between
objects in the solar system is equal to phi.

Having a different date for Northern and Southern hemisphere is

problematic for a global event though. The proposed date for the
<br>
Northern Hemisphere, May 6th though, would be a practical choice if we

want to start the project now, because it is both in the near future

create something.
