Aria (Classical Mandaic: ࡀࡓࡉࡀ), alternatively known as Ab (Classical Mandaic: ࡀࡁ),[1] is the seventh month of the Mandaean calendar.[2][3]
It is the Mandaic name for the constellation Leo.[2] It currently corresponds to January / February in the Gregorian calendar due to a lack of a leap year in the Mandaean calendar.
