My Moon Calendar shows the exact times when the Moon is Void of Course (VoC) 🌌 — powerful moments for reflection, rest, or inner work 🌙✨.
Since the calendar is set to Central European Time (CET/CEST) 🕒, you’ll need to adjust the times if you live in another part of the world 🌍.
Keep in mind that during summer months, Daylight Saving Time (DST) ☀️ also applies.

🕒 What Time Zone is the Calendar In?
❄️ Winter months = CET (UTC +1)
🌞 Summer months = CEST (UTC +2, Daylight Saving Time)
This means all the VoC start and end times in my calendar follow Amsterdam/Paris/Berlin time 🏙.
🌍 Why This Matters
The Moon’s movements are the same everywhere 🌙✨ — but the clock time you see depends on where you are on Earth.
For example:
If my calendar says the Moon is Void of Course at 15:00 CET, in New York 🗽 it will be 09:00 EST.
If it’s 22:00 CET, in Sydney 🦘 it will already be 07:00 the next day (AEST).
🌍 Examples of CET Compared to Other Regions
Here are some common differences (without DST changes applied):
🗽 New York (EST) → 6 hours behind CET
🌴 Los Angeles (PST) → 9 hours behind CET
🇬🇧 London (GMT) → 1 hour behind CET
🦘 Sydney (AEST) → 9 hours ahead of CET
🇮🇳 New Delhi (IST) → 4.5 hours ahead of CET
⚠️ Please always double-check, as Daylight Saving rules vary by country.
🔗 Easy Way to Convert Times
To make sure you use the calendar correctly, I recommend this tool:
Enter Amsterdam (my reference city)
Enter your city
Compare to see the exact time difference 📊
💡 Final Tip
Always check whether it’s winter (CET) or summer (CEST) when using the calendar 🕰.This way, you can trust that you’re tuning into the right VoC moment wherever you are in the world 🌍💫.
✨ With this little adjustment, the Void of Course Moon calendar becomes a practical tool for self-alignment — worldwide.
Warmly,
