Traditionally the āsana and prāṇāyāma portions of Ashtanga Yoga were not practiced on Full or New Moon days. These are days when the position of the Sun and Moon are in alignment with the earth causing a stronger gravitational pull along a single axis. Energetically these are good days to rest and when āsana practice is done daily, the extra rest day is helpful for restoration and reflection.
We follow the calculation system based on the lunar calendar used in South India. This system also calculates the beginning of the day from sunrise, not from midnight. Hence, if the Full or New Moon occurs after midnight but before sunrise it will still be considered to have occurred on the previous calendar day. For example, if the Full Moon occurs at 3am on a Tuesday, since it is before sunrise it is considered as occurring the previous day, Monday.
Our moon days come from the following online source where you can input your location to find the timing of the moon day for your own area: www.mypanchang.com
