    An assumption about the moon
    From: John Doe
    Date: 2010 Feb 17, 16:34 -0800

    Greetings,

    recently on a camping trip in baja we were looking at the moon and during the conversation one person commented that the path of the moon indicated the season.

    By my recollection though I believe that the moons path ( well at least the rising and settings points) on the horizon move back and forth fairly quickly - probably over a lunar months time.

    Is there any pattern that I could describe to someone so that they could over a months time see the changes in the path of the moon without resorting to tables or even compass.

    Thanks
