Perihelion typically occurs between January 2nd and January 5th .
While perihelion does not dictate our seasons, it does impact our planet in subtle, fascinating ways. 1. Orbital Speed and the Length of Seasons during which month is the earth closest to the sun link

If you are looking for the "link" between the calendar and the cosmos, remember that is the month of proximity. We are closest to our star during the coldest month for the north, proving that in astronomy, tilt matters much more than distance. Orbital Speed and the Length of Seasons Source:
The point in a planet's orbit where it is closest to the Sun. The word comes from the Greek words peri (meaning near) and helios (meaning Sun).
The Earth's elliptical orbit affects the planet's distance from the Sun, but not the seasons. The seasons are determined by the amount of solar energy the Earth receives, which depends on the tilt of the Earth's axis and the time of day.
