| If
the Sun in astrology represents our conscious will, determines the individual
shape, the Moon is responsible for the emotions of the unconscious,
our instinctive reaction is the inner world of the individual. Moon is
the part of our soul, which reacts before we have time to think and realize. |

Notes
to the lunar calendar |
| |
Lunar
year, lunar month, lunar day
Use
the lunar calendar by people began much earlier than the solar
calendar. Since ancient times, people lived exactly in accordance
with the lunar rhythms, they understood that the effect of
the Moon on the Earth is not weaker, and perhaps even stronger
than the sun. In ancient Rome, after each new moon priests
publicly reported beginning of the month, called the date
of the lunar phases. Now we live on the solar calendar, in
the rhythms of the sun, but the accounting data of the lunar
calendar in our daily life is still relevant if we want to
feel good about themselves and succeed.
Lunar Year.
Earth year lasts 365 days, but it is - the length of the solar
year. It was during this time, the Earth makes a complete
revolution around the sun. If we lived in the lunar calendar,
the year would have lasted 354.36 Earth days - this is the
length of the lunar year.
A Lunar Day is
the period of time it takes for the Earth's Moon to complete
one full rotation on its axis with respect to the Sun. Equivalently,
it is the time it takes the Moon to make one complete orbit
around the Earth and come back to the same phase. It is marked
from a new moon to the next new moon. Lunar day is longer
than a sunny day. Lunar day lasts 24 hours 48 minutes - that
is how much time passes from one moonrise to the next. Lunar
Days - those that are described in the astrological traditions
of the World - are quite different from the familiar calendar
days. The First Lunar Day always begins at the moment of the
New Moon. Each subsequent day begins at the moment of moonrise
in the given location. This means that Lunar Days are location-specific:
the moment of moonrise depends on the longitude and latitude
of the location and so even if two cities are located in the
same time zone (say, New York and Boston), there will be a
more or less substantial difference between their Lunar Days.
By
the way, scientists who study biological rhythms, found that
the human biological clock (property of the brain that allows
us to accurately feel the time and wake up at the right time
without an alarm clock) "wound up" about 24,5-25
hours, that is more in tune with the rhythms of the moon,
than the sun. Maybe that's why many people always suffer from
a lack of time? It say about them: "He is 24 hours in
a day is not enough!" Or maybe they do not have this
particular missing lunar hours?
The lunar month
is shorter than our usual solar month. In the lunar month
of 29.53 Earth days.
Moonlit night
(Lunar twenty-four hours) - this time,
which runs from sunrise to moonrise. With the exception of
the first lunar day: they start at the time of the new moon,
and it does not coincide with the moment of sunrise. End first
lunar day, at the time of the next new moon after the rising
of the moon. Therefore, the first lunar day can be very short.
Sometimes, in the lunar month of 29 lunar
days, and sometimes - 30. Thirties lunar day can also
be very short: they do not end with the nearest rising moon,
and at the time of the new moon, which can happen between
two lunar sunrise. The duration of all other lunar day is
about the same. |

| Why
does the Moon have phases? |
 |
At
the new Moon phase, the Moon is so close to the Sun
in the sky that none of the side facing Earth is illuminated
(position 1 in illustration). In other words, the Moon
is between Earth and Sun. At first quarter, the half-lit
Moon is highest in the sky at sunset, then sets about
six hours later (3). At full Moon, the Moon is behind
Earth in space with respect to the Sun. As the Sun sets,
the Moon rises with the side that faces Earth fully
exposed to sunlight (5).
The
Moon has phases because it orbits Earth, which causes
the portion we see illuminated to change. The Moon takes
27.3 days to orbit Earth, but the lunar phase cycle
(from new Moon to new Moon) is 29.5 days. The Moon spends
the extra 2.2 days "catching up" because Earth
travels about 45 million miles around the Sun during
the time the Moon completes one orbit around Earth.
At the new Moon phase, the Moon is so close to the Sun

You can create a mockup of the relationship between
Sun, Earth, and Moon using a bright lamp, a basketball,
and a baseball. Mark a spot on the basketball, which
represents you as an observer on Earth, then play with
various alignments of Earth and Moon in the light of
your imaginary Sun. |

Critical
points of the Moon
In
the lunar month, there are four critical points - these are
the days of precise phases. They are listed in the calendar.
These days, the moon and sun are at a critical angular distance
from each other to form a tight, inharmonious or stress aspects.
These are the days of turning points of the cycle.
Two main criticisms of the day - it's a new moon (distance
0 deg) and full moon (distance 180 deg.).
Two intermediate - is growing (in the first quarter) and falling
(in the third quarter) squaring the Moon to the Sun. During
the 1st and 3rd quarters of the moon is from the Sun at an
angular distance of 90 degrees.
The
first quarter of the lunar month there is usually 7-8 lunar
day; the second - from 14 to 17 lunar day, the third quarter
- at 22-23 and night. Fourth Quarter - is the end of one of
the lunar month and the beginning of a new one.
Four critical points of the lunar month - according to statistics,
during accidents and disasters, disease exacerbation. In these
days of internal processes in the human body and psyche are
unstable. Any business these days is experiencing a temporary
crisis. Folk wisdom warns against making important decisions
in the critical days of the moon.
Archetypal waxing Moon is associated with the manifestation
in the material sphere, and falling Moon - with the growth
of the spiritual. But there is a lunar month, and days that
are best suited for the beginning of anything was new. |

Why the moon looks like it is changing? |
|
Did
you know that the moon is 27 million times smaller than the Sun?
And the moon is 374 times closer to Earth?

What
about the discrepancies in the counting of the age of the
moon
(number of lunar day) |
|
| |
In
different sources there are discrepancies in the calculation
of the age of the moon. This is due to the fact that the movement
of the moon is extremely uneven. Therefore, the accuracy of
the formulas for the determination of the lunar day, such
a formula Harvey is plus-minus
one day.
Hence
the differences in the one day of our lunar calendar with
some other calendars. What to
do? Do not worry! Remember that the key is
to know the phases of the moon and the position of the Moon
in the sign of the Zodiac.
But
do not forget, the calendar is advisory in nature. When making
decisions rely more on themselves. |

| Features
account lunar days
Looking
at the moon, you will notice that the sight of her every
day is changing - from a small crescent to full disk.
On the day of the new moon (the day before the new moon)
the moon in the sky is not visible. It can be seen only
by the middle or end of the next day. What is not generally
represent a digit zero. So, take lunar days most naturally
with zero: 0, 1, 2, 3 ...
(zero corresponds to the new moon day of the moon).
But lunar days thus counted is not always. The fact
that zero invented much later lunar calendar, and ancient
calendars account lunar days were with units 1, 2, 3,
4 ... (in some calendars, the system still preserved).
It's the same thing to start with unit scale ruler -
this line will always show more than 1 cm! Of course,
it is very inconvenient. But in those early years there
was no other choice - because zero was not yet invented.
Later this difficulty were able to bypass the Tibetan
lunar calendar: the day of the new moon it was seen
as the 30th lunar day, the final month. |

A
lunar calendar is a calendar that is based on cycles of the
lunar phases. Because there are slightly more than twelve lunations
(synodic months) in a solar year, the period of 12 lunar months
(354.37 days) is sometimes referred to as a lunar year.
A common purely lunar calendar is the Islamic calendar or Hijri
Qamari calendar. A feature of the Islamic calendar is that a
year is always 12 months, so the months are not linked with
the seasons and drift each solar year by 11 to 12 days. It comes
back to the position it had in relation to the solar year approximately
every 33 Islamic years. It is used mainly for religious purposes,
but in Saudi Arabia it is the official calendar. Other lunar
calendars often include extra months added occasionally to synchronize
it with the solar calendar.
The oldest known lunar calendar was found in Scotland; it dates
back to around 8000 BC.
