Understanding the Astrological Calendar
The astrological calendar tracks the movements of celestial bodies and their impact on our lives. By understanding the cosmic rhythms of moon phases, planetary retrogrades, and sign ingresses, you can align your activities with the natural flow of the universe.
Moon Phases
The lunar cycle takes approximately 29.5 days to complete. Each phase carries different energy:
- New Moon: Fresh starts, setting intentions, planting seeds
- First Quarter: Taking action, overcoming obstacles
- Full Moon: Culmination, harvest, heightened emotions
- Last Quarter: Release, reflection, letting go
Planetary Retrogrades
When planets appear to move backward from Earth's perspective, their energy turns inward. Mercury retrograde is famous for communication issues, but all planetary retrogrades offer valuable periods of reflection and review in their respective domains.
Sign Ingresses
When a planet enters a new zodiac sign, the collective energy shifts. Inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars) change signs frequently and affect daily life, while outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) mark longer generational cycles.
