Lunar calendars, which base months on the moon’s phases, remain central to many cultural and religious observances worldwide. Islamic, Hebrew, and Chinese calendars each rely on lunar or lunisolar cycles for setting festivals, fasts, and cultural milestones. Though less common in civil life, these calendars are deeply woven into communal identities, marking events like Ramadan, Passover, and Chinese New Year. People often consult both lunar and solar calendars to align modern commitments with traditional rites. This dual reliance underscores the enduring relevance of natural celestial rhythms.
