Hi, 

on calendar table first create column

Today = Today()
then another column
BeforeNextMonth= if('Calendar'[Date]>ENDOFMONTH('Calendar'[Today]), 0,  if('Calendar'[Date]<=ENDOFMONTH('Calendar'[Today]),1))
0 will stand for your future months, 1 for actuals


then go to format settings-column-color, assign different colors based on rules
