New moon2026-08-12 17:37 UTC

The Moon sits between Earth and Sun, its dark side toward us. The monthly cycle starts again.

traditionTradition treats the new moon as the clean page: intentions set now are said to ride the whole cycle.

Lunar eclipse (partial)2026-08-28 04:12 UTC

Earth's shadow crosses the full Moon. This one is partial. Like all eclipses, it is exact astronomy — the same math lands spacecraft and predicts this moment.

traditionA lunar eclipse is traditionally read as a full moon with the dial turned up: what has been building emotionally becomes visible.

Full moons make feelings legible; eclipses make them loud. What feeling of yours has been trying to get your attention? You can name it without obeying it.

Full moon2026-08-28 04:19 UTC

Sun and Moon face each other across Earth; the Moon is fully lit.

traditionFull moons are traditionally read as illumination: what was hidden or building becomes visible — often emotionally.

Notice what feels revealed today. Excitement and irritation both peak more easily — neither is a verdict on anything.
