Uposatha

Buddhist Days of Observation

Today marks the moon's first quarter. I have installed a cool "moon phases" program here [see note below].

Why? Because many Buddhists observe two (new and full) or all four quarters of the moon's cycle. There is more about this in the Library article Uposatha Days. Enjoy!
