    A Yearly Lunar Calendar : GardenFork Radio

    by Eric · This post may contain affiliate links, its one way we pay the bills. · 4 Comments

    Every year my friend Gary publishes a book called the Lunar Calendar, which incorporates celestial cycles into a daily planner. I think what Gary does is interesting; to me it combines astronomy and some aspects of astrology. You could use this to determine when is a good time to plant your garden or go fishing.

    This year the Lunar Calendar is available as a plug in for iCal and Google Calendar. We sat in my kitchen and talked about the calendar and Gary's view on auspicious moments. You can purchase The Lunar Calendar at www.LunarCalendar.biz

      Love it! Can't wait to download Gary's calendar. I think I mixed something up on my last lunar planting calendar.

      Thanks for the Show!

      I'm still trying to understand the lunar calendar. Is there any science behind it? I never heard of any farmers using it when I was living on the farm and using it to plan my decisions seems I'm putting my faith in something that is just as provable as a religion.

      But then again, I believe in bigfoot so who am I to judge. 🙂

      I always learn something new on GFR.

      The calendar sounds like a great tool. I know that we have always had to watch out for the effect of the calendar on certain family members' mood swings. One thing, the Chinese do not have a 7 or 6,000 year old history, rather its closer to 10,000 years, and thats just written, the culture predates that significantly.
