So I started creeping along the URL to see whether there was anything else of interest, and I found a calendar with moon phases http://www.spiritweb.org/cgi/mooncalendar.cgi Unfortunately, the phase display has little correspondence with the actual appearance of the moon at its various phases (they are more like eclipses if the earth's shadow were approximately the same size as the moon). These astrologers really crack me up. Their charts are off by a month because of precession, and the moon they display here has little relation to the actual moon.
