About moon mandala
- The word mandala comes from the ancient Sanskrit language and translates directly to circle, representing wholeness and the universe.
- A crescent moon occurs when less than half of the Earth-facing hemisphere of the Moon is illuminated by direct sunlight.
- Because the Moon is locked in synchronous rotation with Earth, the exact same side always faces our planet.
