The phases of the moon

Can't Post | Private Reply
Hi All,
I'm doing a tile project and would like to write, in mosaic, the phases of the moon in Spanish around a panel. Can someone help me?
This type of project is where the expression, "written in stone" comes from.
Muchas Gracias

Four phases: luna nueva, cuarta creciente, luna llena, cuarta menguante.

Thank you Esperanza.
I'm working on luna nueva now...
Can I get away with luna creciente & luna menguante?

... not cuartas, amiga Esperanza. Cuarto menguante, cuarto creciente.

Saludos,

I'm almost done with my Luna project. I'm attaching a pic. Thanks for your help. I took the liberty of using luna for each phase instead of quarto...

Oh my goodness!!! That is lovely.

I come from a family of mosaic makers, so I have some idea of the many hours and considerable skill that went into that piece.
