I know a lot of people have been complaining about the entity naming scheme change from a few months ago so it is nice that they opened more flexibility.

This one got a chuckle

Moon gains a trigger and matching conditions. You can start an automation the moment the moon enters a new phase, or check the current phase as part of a bigger automation. Point it at the full moon, the new moon, or any change of phase, and let your home take it from there, whether that is mood lighting, a reminder, or just a bit of fun. 🌙
