Someone previously posted a few [additional date functions](https://community.silverbullet.md/t/additional-date-functions/384), including one that returns the current month:

```space-script
silverbullet.registerFunction({name: "monthNumber"}, () => {
  return Temporal.Now.plainDateISO().month;
})

```

If you go ahead and add a `month` attribute to your tasks (e.g., `[] Something to do [month:6]`, you could render tasks where that `month` attribute matches the current month:

```template
{{{task where month = monthNumber render [[Library/Core/Query/Task]]}}}

```

I prefer to see tasks in the next 30 days though, so I’m comparing `addDays(today, 30)` with the `deadline` attribute in the following template:

```template
{{{task where !done and deadline <= addDays(today, 30) order by deadline render [[Library/Core/Query/Task]]}}}

```
