Why talk about the #FullMoon nearest to the #VernalEquinox? The calculation for #KrononautMoon is simpler and less dependent on human calendars. It's based on nature (the #Sun crossing the #CelestialEquator from south to north).

A #KrononautMoon will almost always occur between March 3 and April 6. We don't need to know what month it is, only when the spring equinox is. On our homepage (in beta) are dates thru the next decade, including a #TotalLunarEclipse in 2025.

“The March equinox is the moment the Sun crosses the celestial equator—an imaginary line in the sky above Earth’s equator—from south to north. This happens on March 19, 20, or 21 every year.”

Should I wait 5 more hours before I bid you Happy Spring? Naaaa, we are close enough.

Happy Spring!
