🌙✨ Understanding Time Zones for Using the Void of Course Moon Calendar

My Moon Calendar shows the times when the Moon is Void of Course (VoC) 🌌. These are powerful moments for reflection, rest, or inner work.

But because my calendar is set in Central European Time (CET/CEST) 🕒, if you live in another part of the world 🌍, you’ll need to adjust the times to match your own local time zone.

During the summer months, we also follow Daylight Saving Time (DST) ☀️.

🕒 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:

  1. Enter Amsterdam (my reference city)

  2. Enter your city

  3. 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,
