Howlo, Bluesky! Today is da #NewMoon🌑#AncientEgyptian#LunarCalendar or "Temple month". Temple months last from new moon to new moon, so da length varies, but dere is 30 pawsible days. Da Moon god Thoth (or later Khonsu) is conceived in da darkness of da new moon. /1

Moon phases also vary by location, so I will be using da moon in Luxor, da modern name fur Thebes or Waset. Sometimes people use dere local moon or birth city moon when dey observing lunar howlidays, yoo do yoo! /2 https://buff.ly/3Y71QTW
