Minor Standstill - October 2015
Jul 27, 2015, 19:09
I'm trying to look at this from a practical point of view - to figure out if any local monuments may be aligned to the Minor Lunar Standstill.

Using Wikipedia it calls out October as the month of the Minor Standstill and gives an azimuth of 124 degrees as where the full Moon will rise and 236 as where it will set.

However I've just be checking on this http://www.timeanddate.com/moon/ireland/limerick?month=10&year=2015

and it gives the full moon rising in Oct locally at 72 degrees and setting at 285 degrees.

Hopefully without melting my brain can anyone help explain where I'm going wrong here?
