You sense the presence of spoilers.--More--

Full moon:  +1 luck
            if night, attempting to tame a dog with food has 5/6 chance of
               just making it peaceful
            #chat with a werecreature has a 12/13 chance of drawing a
               "bloodcurdling shriek/howl" at night, 1/13 by day; this wakes
               nearby monsters
            If night, #chat with a dog is answered with a howl
            werecreatures change more often

New moon:   *NO* effect on luck
            Hearing a cockatrice's hissing automatically begins stoning unless
               carrying a lizard corpse

Friday the 13th:  -1 luck

Night (10:00 PM to 05:59 AM):
           Combines with full moon as described above
           Werecreatures (including you as werecreature) change more often
           Gremlins can remove intrinsics

Midnight (12:00 AM to 00:59 AM):
           Different message on entering a graveyard
           Undead do extra damage
