The titles of each Moon Phase are according to Chinese Monthly Titles, and include the monthly Flower.  This year, beginning February 1, 2003 of the Gregorian calendar is approximately year 4701, in the Year of the Sheep on the Chinese Calendar.
Each year I intend to focus on a different calendar and set of Lunar titles.
