The Moon's path through the Constellations/Stars an interesting Fact!

The Moon's path through the constellations is a witness to the 364-day solar year. Both the Sun and Moon travel through each of the 12 constellations every year. The sun will travel through one of the constellations each month 30 days. The Moon will travel through each constellation 13 times a year at a 28-day rotation from the time the moon enters each constellation until it returns to the same constellation. 13x28=364 days that the moon and each of the 12 constellation witnesses to the suns 364-day year.

When considering the moon's cycle according to the phases you get a moon cycle of 354 days a year with 6 cycles of phases at 29 days and 6 cycles of phases at 30 days per year.

When using the moon cycles through the constellations it is a totally different way of looking at the moon and the number of days in a year.

When looking at the moon without being concerned with what phase the moon is in but using the stars as the marker and starting point you come up with a 364-day year.

This is something I am working on and think we need to consider with the Zadokite Priestly Calendar.

Rachel Elior in her book, "The Three Temples" on page 99 talks about Enoch and the 13 cycles of the moon. In three years, the moon is behind, and a 13th cycle has to be added if going by moon phases.

If going by the stars or constellations the moon would have a 364-day year without an added cycle every three years which is something Enoch doesn't account for. Enoch only gives us counts for a 354-day yearly cycle with the moon saying it falls behind 10 days a year.

I will be updating this blog posts with new information concerning this topic as I finish my studies. If anyone has any ideas of suggestions that would help, please send them to my email address. Ty
