The Lunar Gestation Cycle shows the evolution of the events seeded from the impact of an Eclipse and becomes an effective predictive tool with all events, from the mundane, to the most personal, including those of finance and business, in four distinctive stages and beyond.

The timing of events with the Lunar Gestation Cycle supports an understanding of the long-range impact of Solar and Lunar Eclipses as the related matters of an event develops along a predictable pattern.

Each month, there are usually four Moon Phases. A New Moon, First Quarter Moon, Full Moon and Last Quarter Moon. Each of these Moon phases is related to a specific group of Moon phases or Moon Family and is called the Lunar Gestation Cycle. Each Moon Family extends over a two and a quarter year period each beginning at a different date. You may have personal or business situations that fall along the dates of any one of the Lunar Gestation Cycles. If your event occurred in the past you can project the next stage of your individual matter with the dates in the cycle.

Please refer to the Chart of Hot Spots of this Eclipse year (2003). There are clearly times in a year that gather greater levels of activity than others. These vividly active time periods are clearly defined by the current Solar and Lunar Eclipse activity. Eclipses are at the root of the Lunar Gestation Cycle.
