Variable atmospheric conditions, weather and the acuity of the eye of an observer mean that the first sighting of the new moon crescent can never be known in advance. Calendars which rely on such observations to define the beginning of a new month therefore suffer from this lack of certainty as to whether a month will begin on a given day or the next. The papers in this volume address the question of how ancient and medieval societies lived with the uncertainties of a lunar calendar. How did lack of foreknowledge of the beginning of the month impact upon administration, the planning of festivals, and historical record keeping? Did societies replace the observation of the new moon crescent with schematic calendars or calendars based upon astronomical calculations and what were the ideological and practical consequences of such a change? The contributors to this volume address these topics from the perspectives of a variety of Ancient Near Eastern, Jewish, Ancient and Medieval European, Asian and American cultures.

Book excerpt: For centuries humans have recognized that the moon's cycles influence our lives and the world around us—the ebb and flow of the tides, women's menstrual cycles, and the most beneficial times to plant and harvest. But this ancient body of knowledge—the impact of lunar rhythms on our lives and our surroundings—has become known to fewer and fewer of us, as we have migrated from agrarian to urban living. Now in Guided by the Moon, authors Johanna Paungger and Thomas Poppe recapture this wisdom, providing advice to help readers determine the timing most likely to bring them success in anything they do. Paungger and Poppe cover every area of daily life, from health, beauty, and housekeeping to nutrition, gardening, and family outings. Guided by the Moon is the most comprehensive, accessible guide to this native wisdom—and will be an invaluable resource for everyone seeking to harness the moon's power to live happier, more harmonious lives. Not simply is this a book on lunar astrology, but a comprehensive guide to the moon's influence on our lives and surroundings—and includes charts, illustrations, and a moon calendar through 2010.
