lunar calendars

while we're on calendar design, i thought it'd be useful to bring up this one. produced by one of my former graphic teachers from my days at eccles college, ryan morley, and his design studio, bird and bee, these calendars track the stages of the moon throughout the year by use of a lunar wheel. printed as a wall poster and postable card.



as well as tracking the moon's journey through the skies, it also provides information on monthly moon phases, moon quarters, 'moonrise' time, moons rising sign, lunar and solar eclipses, solstices and equinoxes, sunrise and sunset times plus traditional pagan moon names and festivals - the latter of which seems quite interesting.
