Sighting the Moon - A simple way to connect with the cycles of nature is to sight the Moon--actually take time to find the Moon. You won't see the Moon on the night of this New Moon because it is too close to the Sun. Keep an eye out tomorrow and the next day. The Moon will be in the western sky and visible when after sunset. Make sure to spot the Moon and when you find her, remember to smile and give the Moon a wink.

Just a quick note: Jupiter is close (by planetary standards) and very bright and visible in the eastern part of the sky. You can't miss it, especially in this dark Moon period.

The Moon moves quickly. Every 28 days She travels through all the signs and shines a light on every part of life and every part of each person’s birth chart. Astrology is all about relationships represented by aspects and angles between planetary bodies. As the Moon travels, She activates the energy field of each cosmic connection. She also keeps changing her relationship to the Sun. This dance between the two luminaries creates the Phases of the Moon.

It is believed that it takes an aspect or angle to the Moon to activate various planetary energies. If you wonder about empty places in your birth chart, it is important to remember the Moon is activating every part of your birth chart every month as She passes through every degree of every sign. Locate the degree and sign of the Moon when you were born, then check in here to notice if you are sensitive enough to feel the Moon pass.

This cycle will last 2 weeks. There will be 4 phases of the releasing cycle and special activities for each phase. Go to USING THE MOON on this website to get some ideas and suggestions for working with the Moon in the processes of releasing.
