What the phases of the Moon are
The Moon shines with reflected sunlight, and from Earth it’s seen either whole or in part — depending on how the Sun, the Earth and the Moon are positioned. New moon — the Moon is at the same longitude as the Sun and isn’t visible from Earth; first quarter — it’s 90° ahead of the Sun, the right half is lit; full moon — opposite the Sun; last quarter — the left half is lit. That’s how astronomical almanacs define them, and that’s how our calculation counts.
A full cycle of phases — the synodic month — lasts, by the same data, on average 29.51 days. That’s why a year has 12 or 13 full moons, and sometimes two fall in one calendar month.
How to check it on yourself
The belief below may turn out to be false about you — that’s how it’s written. Write down your sleep before you look at the dates, or your memory will adjust to the answer.
If the full moon affects you
What should match. Many people are sure they sleep worse at a full moon. For a week around a full moon and a week around a new moon, write down when you fall asleep and how long you sleep. Around the full moon your sleep is at least half an hour shorter.
When it’s not about you. The difference is less than half an hour or goes the other way — for you this belief doesn’t work.
The Moon’s sign on your birthday is another matter: it’s in the free chart calculation and is checked by the signs on the Moon page. How we check the rest — the site’s method.
