The Eight Moon Phases in Astrology
The Moon's phase depends on the angle between the Moon and the Sun as seen from Earth. Astrology attaches a mood to each stage of that monthly cycle:
- New Moon - the Moon and Sun share a sign. Traditionally linked with beginnings and setting intentions.
- Waxing Crescent - associated with building momentum on fresh plans.
- First Quarter - the Moon is 90° ahead of the Sun. Linked with decisions and pushing through obstacles.
- Waxing Gibbous - associated with refining and adjusting before things come to fruition.
- Full Moon - the Moon sits opposite the Sun. Traditionally a time of culmination, clarity, and heightened emotion.
- Waning Gibbous - associated with sharing what you've learned and giving thanks.
- Last Quarter - linked with letting go and clearing out what no longer works.
- Waning Crescent - traditionally a time to rest and reflect before the next cycle.
What the Moon's Sign Adds
A new moon always falls in the same sign as the Sun, and a full moon in the opposite sign. Astrologers read the sign as the flavor of that phase - a full moon in Taurus, for example, is described through Taurus themes of comfort, security, and the body. Each moon sign guide describes those themes, and the sign links in the tables above go straight to them.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often is there a full moon?
About every 29.5 days - the length of the Moon's cycle of phases. Most years have 12 full moons; when a year has 13, one calendar month gets two, and the second is popularly called a Blue Moon.
What sign is the full moon in?
A full moon always falls in the sign opposite the Sun - so in late October, with the Sun in Scorpio, the full moon is in Taurus. A new moon falls in the same sign as the Sun.
Why does the date differ from other calendars?
A full or new moon is a single moment worldwide, so its calendar date depends on your time zone. A full moon at 02:00 UTC is still the previous evening in the Americas. This page converts every time to your browser's time zone.
