Countdown Begins – Shabaan 1435
This evening the new crescent moon for the 8th month of the Islamic calendar, Shabaan, was sighted in San Jose, CA. This puts everything in motion and the countdown begins for the approach of the Ramadan, the month of fasting. It was first seen this evening at 8:42 pm PDT. At an azimuth of close to 274° with an altitude of about 8° above the horizon. It was very faint. Beautiful as always however and always a bringer of great hope.
