Comment on What would life be like if we had 2 moons? With 2 different lunar cycles, how would we tell which time of the year it is without months?

Given our propensity to watch the stars and moon, I think we’d figure out some month schedule if we wanted one.

Months really don’t matter all that much because the seasons are still based the Sun and the planets tilt. The days get shorter and longer each day and that’s pretty easy to observe.

(We bought actually get a month that makes more sense if we throw out lunar cycles. One that aligns with the week.)
