I was thinking horizontally :-) In the western seas the moon is east of Kalikos (north star), and vice-versa, but as you get closer to some "red moon meridian", the moon gets closer to Kalikos (assuming it's in the same direction as the Crater).
But you couldn't measure the moon's altitude. (and knowing this, your distance to the Crater). So it looks like a good thing!
