Why is it masculine?
Conselho is masculine because it derives from Latin "consilium," which was neuter in classical Latin but became masculine in Vulgar Latin and Romance languages, following the pattern of many Latin neuter nouns ending in -ium that shifted to the masculine -o declension in Portuguese. This gender shift occurred naturally as the neuter gender gradually disappeared from Romance languages during their evolution from Latin.
