A lunar day is 27.3 days and a solar cycle is 29 and change. So we’d be just off the lunar cycles. Like when you’re sitting waiting for a turn lane signal to change and the person in front of you has a blinker that’s just a tiny bit slower than yours.

So what I’m getting from this is that we need to pull the Moon a bit closer to the Earth, and the Earth a bit closer to the Sun.
