Is there a reference that discusses the moon phases of Golarion? I have a character that was bitten by a were-rat and I need to determine when/how often she will change into her hybrid form. Are the moon phases just tied to the months? So like a new moon at the beginning of each month and a full moon at the middle? Thanks.

I don't recall seeing moon phase info anywhere.
What we used to do was use an actual calendar that showed the phases. We would keep track of the days of our campaign on there as we went along. I'll admit that it didn't last all that long as it was kind of a pain to remember to keep track of it, but it worked nicely while we kept it up.

Vivriel here on the boards, posted a calendar in excel format a couple of years back...
Here is a direct link to that file...
The zip file has a moon phase font to install...
It's certainly not "official" (as it's fan created), but this is a really good calendar (with phases of the moon) that you can use no matter what year your Golarion campaign is set...
Hope this helps...

I always extrapolated the idea that Golarion years corresponded to Earth years (Gregorian). I think according to the Absalom calendar, Golarion is 2700 years ahead of Earth. The months also correspond to Earth months. After I decided the date in the game, I would figure the corresponding Earth date and use the interwebs to look up the phase of the moon.
It's really not as much work as it sounds like...
It has been stated several times that Golarion is set up to mimic Earth in things like size, length of day/year, etc. So they have full moons as often as we do - three days every month.

This is definitely the best way to figure such things out.
