The seasons affect the scheduling of far more events than the moon phases do.

Lunar calendars and lunar months are used by various cultures and religions around the world to determine the timing of religious events, festivals, agricultural activities, and traditional ceremonies. Some examples of cultures that follow lunar calendars include the Islamic calendar used by Muslims, the Hebrew calendar used by Jewish communities, and the Chinese calendar used in China and other East Asian countries.
iiWHAT IT MEANS!! A lunar week is when the whole week has every single phase of the moon.If there is lunar phases every single day of the year then there is a lunar year.If there is only for a month then it is called a lunar month.A lunar cycle are called to the phases of the moon.
A lunar month is around 29.53 days. It's the length of time between two identical phases, though the actual phase it is measured from has varied from culture to culture. A lunar month could be said to be between full moon to the next full moon for example, but any phase could be used in theory.
usually a word related to the moon would be lunar. an xample would be the lunar eclipse.

Some cultures use lunar calendars, which are based on the timing of the moon's orbit of the Earth, rather than solar calendars, which are based on the Earth's orbit of the sun. One lunar calendar in use today is the Islamic calendar, the Hijra. Some calendars, like the Hebrew calendar, are luni-solar, a cross between the lunar calendar and the solar calendar. They have months that begin at the time of the new moon, but they also have leap months added every few years to keep pace with the solar cycle. Regarding what they're used for, the primary purpose today is to know the time of traditional, especially religious, feasts and other observances. Lunar calendars in everyday use today is rare since the invention of electric lighting, yet might still be handy to some hunters, fishermen, or lunologists.
The ancient Egyptians and the Mayans are among the civilizations that independently invented solar calendars. These calendars were based on the movement of the sun and helped track the passing of time and agricultural cycles.

To know the date. To track when events are.
There is no widely recognized 13th month in the Gregorian calendar or other widely used calendars. Most calendars consist of 12 months.
Modern calendars are not based off the Mayan Calendar, but the Mayan Calendar has influenced the way some cultures view time and celestial events. The Gregorian calendar is the one most widely used worldwide today.
Most calendars are in some way based on either the solar (Sun) or the lunar (Moon) cycle; some are based on both. Of the commonly used calendars:* The Gregorian calendar - the most widely used calendar worldwide - is based on the Sun. That is, the length of the year is based on the Sun; but the start of the year and the months is not related to any particular astronomical event.* The Jewish calendar is based on both the Moon and the Sun. As far as I know, it's the only widely used calendar that is based on BOTH. Some years have 12 months, others have 13 months.* The Muslim calendar is based on the Moon. A muslim year is about 11 days shorter than a Gregorian (solar) year.* Many other calendars are based on the Sun.

The Apollo lunar rover, also known as the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV), was a battery-powered four-wheeled rover used during the Apollo missions to the Moon. It allowed astronauts to explore the lunar surface over greater distances than they could on foot. The LRV was used on Apollo 15, 16, and 17 missions.
Approximately 12, but 12 lunar months are a little less than a solar year. In China, both lunar and solar calendars are used, but the lunar New Year does not fall on the same date of the solar year all the time. Occasionally they have a 13th lunar month to bring them back into alignment.
