The Moon & Your Moon Calendar

The Moon is the closest celestial rhythm we can actually feel — in tides, in sleep, in mood, and in the subtle ways our inner world responds to light and darkness.

If you’ve ever felt more sensitive on a Full Moon or unusually clear on a New Moon, you’re already noticing the pattern.

Moon work isn’t about doing more. It’s about timing: knowing when to start, when to build, when to release, and when to rest — so your life feels guided, not forced.

Moon Basics

Phases

The Moon cycles through eight phases. Waxing supports growth and momentum; waning supports release and integration.

Moon Sign

The Moon moves fast through the zodiac, changing signs every ~2–3 days — shifting the emotional tone of the day.

Timing

A Moon calendar helps you align actions with energy: intentions, boundaries, creativity, closure, and recovery.

If you want to go deeper: the Moon Course will teach you how to read phases + Moon signs together, build a simple lunar planning system, and create rituals that are practical, not performative.

Moon Phases & What They’re Good For
