## What this shortcut does

Some people can remember everyone’s birthday, anniversary or whatever but for everyone else here’s a handy shortcut that will look ahead and remind you of all the upcoming birthdays, anniversaries and passings in your calendar.
There are 5 types of Special Occasion you can search for all configurable to the terms you use and prefer.
All you need is to have the word in your calendar item and you’ll get reminded from the number of months ahead you specify.
