moon calendar poster 2013
These calendars show the exact shape of the Moon for each night of the year, screenprinted in silvery metallic ink on a deep midnight blue background. As well as dates and days of the week, the calendar gives the exact times of the full, new and quarter moons, and the times when the moon changes from one sign of the zodiac to the next.
The date and time of the Sun's movement into each zodiac sign is printed at the bottom of the calendar - these, of course, include the solstices and equinoxes (in March, June, September and December) - and a key to the zodiac symbols is also given. When there's a solar or lunar eclipse, the type of eclipse and time of greatest eclipse are shown instead of the full- or new-moon time, this being just a few minutes different. The moon's phases are drawn for midnight, and the last one shown in each month (for 24:00 GMT on the last day) is pictured again at the top of the next month's column.
All the times shown on the calendar are in Greenwich Mean Time.
The poster measures 12 inches by 32 inches (30cm x 80cm)
