Wonderful! My wife is a Customer Service Rep and she tracks when the lunatics come out of the wood work - vial the Lunar calendar. Great to have this information on iCal. Thanks.

It'd be nicer if the moon phases stood out more. The author should have created each entry as an 'All Day Event' so they'd show more prominently in the shape of an oval... (IMHO) ... Nice job otherwise...

Moon phases are not all day events--they only occur at a specific point in time. Most charts give the phases at GMT, which need to be offset to your local timezone. Thus it can't be an "all day event' as it's not tied to a particular date. Depending on where you are in relation to the author of the calendar, your moon phases would then be off by a day.
(I do hope that the current version works with universal time, as I would expect it to.)

Granted, the monn phases occur at a specific time, for thjose interested in that specific time. But for those of us used to paper calendars, and are only concerned which day or night the moon will be full, or half or new, an all day event bubble would be fine, and preferable. Not a criticism, just a comment. Thanks.

If set to "all day", people in countries other than the calendar creator will not see the correct day.
Perhaps someone else could make an all-day calendar for those of us who aren't quite ready for the flat-earth / globalised standard time transition yet :)

I agree. I like this one precisely because it shows the moon phases as times rather than whole days.

Try "Sabbats, Esbats, & Moon Phases". Even tells the kind of full moon in a nice little oval.

I noticed that if you change the moon event to all day in order to put it in an oval, if you ever want the specific time again, simply uncheck all day again and iCal reverts back to the correct time. So you can have your display preference but also preserve the exact data if at some point you want to refer to it.

iCal seems to be able to convert any events to the user's local time automatically. For example, the Phoenix Suns' home games start at 11am in my calendar where I live (I'm a Japanese).
So, I assume the time of specific moon phase is displayed in your local time. The next new moon is at 19:48 on February 1st in my calendar, but yours must show a different time unless you are also at GMT+9.
As long as I understand, GMT and UT are essentially the same if you are not concerned about a few second discrepancy.

It would be cool if moon phase symbols could be added to this calendar. There is a free moon phase font here: http://www.csupomona.edu/~jcclark/fonts/

It would be really cool if the moon calendar could have graphics (can't Ical do graphics- say in the info box?) Or if you could have a link to a Moon Cam that showed the (last night time) view of the current moon. You would never have to go outside. Of course the cam would be best on the space station. Anyone want to work on that project?

Thanks so much for this info. I am currently working on a 13 month sidereal/true solar calendar, and needed to add the lunar cal. Thanks for saving me hours of additional work. I will post the solar calendar when it is ready.
BTW, the lunar phases show up as a day when posted on the monthly calendar.
peace

This calendar is fantastic!
For years I've been using "Llewellyn's Daily Planetary Guide" for moon phase (among other astrological) details, occasionally there is a VERY Rare 1 minute variance between the two, but that "difference" is negligible.... IMO
Thanks to who ever took the time to do this.

I was just thinking that it would be great if there were a way to track the moon phases on iCal. :-)

This calendar is inaccurate.
My source is the US Naval Obervatory: http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/MoonPhase.html

I failed to consider that the USNO calendar is in relative GMT, not local. Therefore, the submitter's calendar is technically accurate. I retract my above comment, with apologies.

I tried to use this with Google calendar, but it complained that the robots.txt file prevents it from looking at the site. Could robots.txt be changed to allow Googlebot thru?
Thanks.

I also found that it would not import into Outlook, threw a corrupt file error!, strange as the iCal file looks fine to me. There is a good import on http://www.calendaronline.co.uk, demo calendar towards the bottom of the page. If you have an account they will import it into your own calendar where you can then set email and sms reminders - don't want to miss a full moon do you!

This iCal Calendar automatically adapted to my time zone. Also, the listed moment of the moon is currently only off less than 1 minute from the USNO data and less than 2 minutes from my MoonMenu software (a cool mac app, check it out!) Other dates seem to be more accurate.
