Each cycle of the moon phases is a little longer than 29½ days.

Six 29-day months and six 30-day months total 354 days.

Five 29-day months and seven 30-day months total 355 days.

Why would a lunar calendar be inaccurate?

In all lunar calendars the first day of each month depends on the phases of the moon. Some calendars begin their month at the start of the new or dark moon while others do not start the month until the first new crescent moon is observed. The actual time it takes for the moon to go through a complete phase cannot be perfectly subdivided by any full number of days. It takes a little more than 29.5 days for this phase to occur, and, thus, over time, lunar calendars will begin to slip and become more and more inaccurate over time. Increasingly complex fractions and dividing schemes have been created to make lunar calendars more accurate.
