prepositions

Hello!I would like to ask which preposition I should use before months...on or in?If it is possible to use both of them is there any difference in the meaning?
  

Top answer

I don't remember coming across anything other than in . The other just doesn't sound right. In May, but on May third.

Only 'in' is possible.

in June; in December; in the month of May; in the following month; in the past month.

But also: next month; last month (no preposition)
