The Moon's calendar, often referred to as the lunar calendar, is based on the phases of the Moon, which cycle approximately every 29.5 days. However, many lunar calendars, such as the Islamic calendar, consist of 12 months with 29 or 30 days, leading to an average of about 28 days in each month when simplified. This system aligns with the Moon's visibility and phases, making it practical for tracking time. Additionally, a 28-day month fits neatly into the lunar cycle, making it easier for traditional cultures to organize their activities around the Moon's phases.
The exact number of full moons fluctuates by year, as the lunar calendar is only roughly twenty nine days long. In 2013, there will be twelve full moons.
A lunar month is based on the time it takes for the moon to pass through all its phases, approximately 29.5 days, while a calendar month is a unit of time used in the Gregorian calendar, ranging from 28 to 31 days. Due to the difference in length, lunar months do not align perfectly with calendar months, resulting in variations in the timing of lunar events such as full moons.
28 days. That is how many days there are in the Islamic calendar, which is based on the phases of the moon.
The year 2016 calendar will repeat in 2044, which is 28 years later. This is because the calendar follows a 28-year cycle called the Gregorian calendar cycle. In this cycle, the days of the week align with the dates in a pattern that repeats every 28 years.
1 moon cycle is 28 days...365.25 days per year times 17 years divide by moon cycle equals 221.75 moons in a 17 year period....cls
A moon calendar is created by carefully observing the phases of the moon and recording them. The moon completes a cycle approximately once every 28 days, which is the time elapsed between two full moons.

any calendar as long as there is one month with 28 or 29 days and 11 months with 30 or 31 days in it

Is it right to call a calendar of days (13 numbers and 20 names) as a calendar. Do we americans and europeans have a DAY calendar, and is it 7 days or 28 years. A week cycles only 7 years in a 365-day calendar without leap days. So does this mean a 7-year calendar exists besides the 28-year.
Find a calendar and count the days.
The shortest "month" of the Gregorian calendar has 28 days.
The Islamic calendar month only has 28 days, where as the Georgian calendar month varies between 28 and 31 days (depending on the month). This means that the Islamic calendar is shorter than the Georgian calendar by approximately 11 days every year. For this reason Islamic religious evens such as the Holy month of Ramadan, migrate forward each year by about 11 days. Christian religious events tend to remain on the same day of the Georgian calendar each year (or within a few days).

It was a political, religious and superstitious decision made roughly 2700 years ago by the Roman King Numa Pompilius. Up to that point the Romans had a ten-month calendar with 304 days, and approximately 61 winter days (between December and March) that were not assigned to any month. Numa created a new twelve-month calendar with 355 days by adding January (29 days) and February (28 days). In general, February has contained 28 days ever since. Interestingly, February's 28 days were the second month of the Roman civil calendar but the last (twelfth) month of their religious calendar.
