Life in Moons

You are looking at your life.

A life calendar counted in full moons — about a thousand of them in a long life, all on one screen.

Not in days, which slip by uncounted, or years, which are too large to feel. In full moons — one of the oldest measures there is. Every person who has ever lived looked up at the same moon you’ll see tonight. It is the one clock we have always shared.

A long life holds only about a thousand of them. That is the whole thing, on one screen: the moons behind you, lit; the moon above you now, breathing; the ones still ahead, waiting as faint outlines.

The app asks nothing of you. There is no streak to keep, no number to raise. But each moon will hold whatever you give it — a note, a photograph, a milestone worth remembering — or stay empty forever. However you leave them, together they become a quiet record of a life.

Your moon is in there — the one that’s breathing


Tonight’s sky

The app knows the sky by pure computation — accurate to the minute, no signal required.


Keep what matters

A note, a photograph, a milestone — each moon holds whatever you give it. A companion star marks the ones that carry a memory.

Blood moons

Some nights the moon turns copper — a total eclipse. Your calendar knows every one from 1920 to 2130. The next: New Year’s Eve, 2028.

On paper

Print your whole sky as an A2 poster — every moon dated, your current one ringed.


Live every moon cycle to the fullest.
