For a calender in the sense of a list of days grouped by weeks, months and years,
there are cal and ncal (same man page);

At 2014-10-07:

$ cal
    October 2014      
Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa  
          1  2  3  4  
 5  6 [7] 8  9 10 11  
12 13 14 15 16 17 18  
19 20 21 22 23 24 25  
26 27 28 29 30 31

(The [7] is shown inverted.)
To see more months, Use -A n or -B n to show n month after or before, -y for the whole year, or -3 for the current month with one month before and after:

$ cal -3      
   September 2014         October 2014         November 2014

                                            30

Use ncal if you need the calendar week, the index of the week in the year; It has a different layout also:

$ ncal -w      
    October 2014      
Su     5 12 19 26   
Mo     6 13 20 27
