Get CHECKED
Ok cool, so here it is: The Secret of Mana moon phase is totally random. And the seed is generated by the checksum of the four save slots of the game. Nothing you do in the story will change the moon phase.
Quite a bummer but haven't found anything pointing to something else, and managed to reproduce it a batch of automated tests with an emulator.

Start-up seeding.
On every start of the boot program, routine $7E:AD75 reads four 16-bit words from save RAM and combines them:seed =
SRAM[$0001]
XOR SRAM[$0401]
XOR SRAM[$0801]
XOR SRAM[$0C01]
These are the checksum words of the four primary save slots.
Then $7E:9373 calls random(3)
The result is a pure function of the XOR. Since nothing else feeds the generator before that draw
