Show 1003 Calendars
Calendars are a system of organizing units of time for the purpose of reckoning time over a period. Most are based on cycles of astronomy: days (based on the rotation of the Earth on its axis), the year (based on the revolution of the Earth around the Sun), and the month (based on the revolution of the Moon around the Earth). First up we have a perpetual calendar – it can be adjusted whatever the day. Next we’ve replaced our basic craft with an extended painting lesson with Prudy Vannier. We’re talking about the basic tools and choosing the right paint brush. Then it’s a sun calendar that rotates to the correct day. Last, it’s equal time for the moon and a calendar of the moon phases including a planting guide.
