Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?
Make it easier to return to the current month when you've scrolled to look at a month in the long past(or future), and alert which direction it is relative to the current month(s) currently being viewed.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem
Add a button mocked up as below, Clicking it would be the equivalent of clicking the current month.
The intent is to show which direction the current month is, and that it is off screen.
The red arrow is just a place holder to indicate the general idea and is not a design suggestion.
The indicator would only show if the current month is off screen, and not visible when the current month is visible but not in current selection, and not visible if the current month is in current selection (3111 has improvements there).
An alternative would be to just show a button in that area to return to current month(without indicating direction) - with the same visibility rules as outlined.
Teaching and learning
Only show when the current month is off screen.
