1.) April
2.) May
3.) June
4.) July

6.) September

Give or take a few days here or there... Ball park does not put the seventh month in September.

I am puzzled. You seem to be counting March as a Zeroth month, which seems inappropriate in this context.
Please clarify.
For reference purposes, here are the new moons of the Gregorian lunar calendar for this year, together with their old names and the traditional / fanciful names for their full moons used by modern almanac-makers.
Code:
[U]# Old name Almanac name Begins at sunset preceeding[/U]
1. Yule Cold moon December 15 2012
2. Solmonth Wolf moon January 14 2013
3. Hrethmonth Snow moon February 12
4. Eastermonth Worm moon March 14
5. Threemilk Pink moon April 12
6. Lithe Flower moon May 12
7. Lithe (embol.) Strawberry moon June 10
8. Lithe Buck moon July 10
9. Weedmonth Sturgeon moon August 8
10. Holymonth Harvest moon September 7
11. Winterfilleth Hunter's moon October 6
12. Bloodmonth Beaver moon November 5
13. Yule Cold moon December 4
The Fall holy-days falling in the civil month of September this year is consistent with the equation 2013 Eastermonth = 2013 'Aviv.
Using the Rabbinic calendar with the equation Rabbinic Nisan = Scriptural 'Aviv would give essentially the same result, though the dates of the new moons would differ by 1 or 2 days.
