Welcome to the Lunar Age Calculator guide! This tool is designed to help you determine your age based on both solar and lunar systems, along with additional lunar-related metrics. Follow the steps below to find out how to use this calculator effectively.

Step 1: Enter Your Birth Date

The first step in using the Lunar Age Calculator is to input your Birth Date. Follow these instructions:

Step 3: Review Your Results

After entering your birth date and selecting your hemisphere, the calculator will display various results. Here’s what each result represents:

• Solar Age: This result shows your age in solar years, calculated as the number of years between your birth date and today. It is formatted to display up to two decimal places, with “years” as the suffix.
• Lunar Age: This age is calculated by multiplying your solar age by 1.08, represented up to two decimal places, with “lunar years” as the suffix.
• Lunar Months Lived: This field shows the total lunar months you have lived, calculated by multiplying your solar age by 13. The result is a whole number, followed by “lunar months”.
• Complete Lunar Cycles: The number of full lunar cycles you have experienced is calculated by dividing the total number of days between today and your birth date by 29.53059 (the average length of a lunar cycle). The result appears as an integer, with “cycles” as the suffix.

By following these steps and entering the correct information, you will be able to effectively use the Lunar Age Calculator to determine various interesting details about your age with respect to both solar and lunar calendars.
