Moon calendar
Every new moon and full moon, with the sign each one falls in and which are eclipses. A new moon is the dark part of the cycle, the good moment to start something quietly. A full moon is the bright part, when whatever you started becomes visible and asks to be finished, kept or let go.

A moon is a good moment to ask something. Draw a card for this one.
✶ Begin your readingCommon questions
When is the next full moon?
The next full moon is shown at the top of this page, with its exact time in your own clock and the sign it falls in. Full moons come about every 29 and a half days, so there are twelve or thirteen in a year.
What is a new moon good for?
Beginnings you are not ready to show anyone. The sky is dark, nothing is visible yet, and that is the point. Write one intention down and leave it alone until the full moon two weeks later.
What does it mean when a full moon is an eclipse?
An eclipse is a moon with the Earth's shadow across it, and astrologically it is read as a louder version of the same moment: things end faster and news arrives sooner than it would have. There are usually four eclipses a year, in two pairs about six months apart.
Why does the moon fall in a different sign each month?
The Moon travels the whole zodiac in about 27 days, so each new and full moon lands somewhere new. A full moon is always in the sign opposite the Sun, which is why a full moon in August falls in Aquarius rather than Leo.
Are these dates the same everywhere in the world?
The instant is the same everywhere; the date on your calendar is not. A moon exact at 01:00 UTC has already happened on the previous evening in Mexico City. The times on this page are shown in UTC, and the next moon at the top uses your own clock.
Dates are shown in UTC. Your own clock may put a moon on the day before or after.
