Lunar Phases and SuperMoons
To view the
Lunar Phases table,
open your base chart, and select the
Lists/Lunar
Phases... menu option. The
Lunar
Phases table will appear.
There, you can see the following information:
- Angle - indicating conjunction for New Moons and opposition for Full
Moons.
- Apparent Diameter - visible diameter of the Moon. Any phase with
diameter bigger than or equal to 0.55 can be considered a SuperMoon.
- Date - date when the phase occurs
- Time - the exact local time when the phase occurs
- SuperMoon - this column will have an indicator for the
"Super-SuperMoon" - the biggest Moon in the series.
In order to create a chart of the Lunar Phase event, simply
double-click on the corresponding Lunar Phase row. The chart will be
shown in the main pane.
Clicking on the column headers will sort the Lunar Phases by that
column. So, for example, if you click on the Apparent Diameter, the data
will be sorted based on the visible size of the Moon at the time of the
event (from smaller to larger). If you click on that header again, the
sorting will be done in the reverse order (from larger to smaller
values).
