Sublunary Astrolabe

A lunar month of Lilly's orbs, Oct 14 to Nov 11, 2026, and what one bulb does with them. Times are UTC. Every frame comes from the Sublunary engine, a Home Assistant integration that drives lights from the Moon.

Each ring is one planet. The bands are where the Moon must stand to be within Lilly's orbs of an aspect: they begin at first contact and end at the dot where the aspect perfects. When the Moon's hand crosses a band, that band lights and the bulb takes the planet's color. Bright means the aspect perfects in the Moon's current sign, so every definition agrees. Faint means only Lilly's orbs reach it across the sign boundary.
