The Moon Takes the Bow: The Longest Fight in the Sky, Scored on Love, Fear, Respect, and Attention
Two fighters have been circling each other since before anyone kept records, and the purse has never changed hands: the human gaze. In one corner burns a furnace so vast that something like a million Earths could rattle around inside it, the engine behind every green leaf and every heartbeat on this planet. In the other corner floats a charcoal-colored rock, airless and dead, throwing back about twelve percent of the light that hits it. On paper the match is a slaughter. In practice the rock has been taking rounds for ten thousand years, and the strangest fact on the whole card is a matter of scheduling, since only one of these two shows up for both shifts.

Năm 2026 là năm Bính Ngọ – kết hợp giữa Thiên Can (Bính) và Địa Chi (Ngọ). Không phải ngẫu nhiên mà các năm có đuôi 6 đều gọi là "Bính", vì nó tuân theo chu kỳ 10 năm của Thiên Can và 12 năm của Địa Chi. Nhờ quy luật kết hợp này, ta có thể dễ dàng tính được từng năm theo Can Chi. Phương pháp đơn giản, dễ nhớ, giúp hiểu rõ hơn về văn hóa và lịch âm truyền thống.

The new #hwotd #hawaiianWordOfTheDay is not available on the website yet… Luckily, I have something else to say about it today! Since I am posting HPR‘s daily content, I decided I need to become a supporter … and yesterday my thank-you gift arrived in the mail! It’s a notebook with a lovely design on the cover that’s a mashup of the Hawaiʻian moon calendar with an audio mixing board! #HawaiianPublicRadio #HPR #calendar #moonCalendar #lunarCalendar

The Hawaiʻian (lunar) new year is coming up, are you going to get an old style Hawaiian lunar calendar? Here is the farming/fishing calendar from the Prince Kūhiō Hawaiian Civic Club. I was using this one for this year that’s coming to an end, I enjoyed it! It’s sort of an old time Hawaiian farmer’s almanac (and fisher’s almanac!) #almanac #calendar #lunarCalendar #hawaii #pkhcc https://www.pkhcc.org/mooncalendar/

This is quite incredible discovery. Background: an amateur noticed patterns in markings that accompanied Paleolithic cave art and worked with a team of professors to decipher them.
It seems likely that the symbols—a series of dots and a Y shape—are calendar marks that signify prey animals’ breeding and calving seasons, based on a lunar calendar that was reset each spring.
