About the Waxing Crescent

The waxing crescent appears low in the western sky after sunset in the days following new moon, a sliver that grows a little each evening. It sets within a few hours of the Sun, so it is only visible in the early evening. The lit edge always faces the Sun, which is why the horns of the crescent point away from the sunset.

Around this phase the dark portion of the disc often glows faintly with earthshine, sunlight reflected from Earth's oceans and clouds.

Lore and folklore

The young crescent has stood for new life and growth for thousands of years, from Mesopotamian seals to the crescents on modern flags. In rural tradition it was the time to start projects, sow leafy crops and cut timber that should not rot. Seeing the new crescent over the right shoulder was lucky; over the left, less so.

Sailors called a crescent tipped like a bowl a wet moon that would hold water and bring rain, or a dry moon if it could spill.

Trivia

The youngest crescent ever photographed was well under a day old, only hours after new moon.
From the tropics the crescent lies almost flat like a smile, because the ecliptic stands steeply from the horizon.
The crescent-and-star symbol predates Islam by centuries; it appeared on coins of Byzantium.
The Moon moves about 13 degrees eastward against the stars each day, roughly its own width every hour.

This month's full moon: the Cold Moon

The December full moon, when winter cold takes hold and nights are longest.

The Long Night Moon, for the night nearest the winter solstice, and the Moon before Yule are older names. It is the highest-riding full moon of the year in the northern hemisphere, opposite the low December sun.

Lore

December's moon comes with the deepest cold and the longest nights, hence the Cold Moon and Long Night Moon. In Anglo-Saxon tradition it was the Moon before Yule, and its light on snow made the long nights unusually bright.

Trivia

The Cold Moon rides highest of all full moons in the northern hemisphere, opposite the low solstice Sun.
Around the December solstice the full moon is above the horizon for more than 15 hours at 50 degrees north.
The Cold Moon is usually the last full moon of the year, but some years a thirteenth follows it as a Blue Moon.

How to read this moon calendar

Each day shows the Moon as it looks from Baoding at midday local time, with the illuminated percentage, moonrise and moonset. Days with a principal phase show the exact local time the phase occurs. Because the Moon moves about 50 minutes later each day, roughly once a month there is a date with no moonrise or no moonset at all.
