The current MOON PHASE:  New Moon & Solar Eclipse at 29° VIRGO 20' on Friday, September 20, 2006 at 7:45 a.m. EDT. This weeks Moon phase is a New Moon Solar Eclipse and shares a relationship with three other Moon phases found over a two-and-a-quarter-year-period. The other Moon phases are linked by a 9-month interval I call the "Lunar Gestation Cycle" and when grouped form a Moon Family. You will notice that the Moon in a Moon Family occur near the same zodiacal thus giving the Moon family their "home address". The four dates of a Moon family are a remarkable timing tool that links the events of your story-lines in a pattern that develops over a two-and-a-quarter-year period. %>

New Moon Solar Eclipse  First Quarter Moon  Full Moon  Last Quarter Moon 09/22/2006 29° Virgo 20´ 06/22/2007 00° Libra 46´ 03/21/2008 01° Libra 31´ 12/19/2008 27° Virgo 54´

Try making your own projections with the dates in this Moon Family. Think about your current situation and project into the future with the dates found in this table. Once you realize your story is part of the "bigger picture" you may relate to each phase in the Moon Family as it carries your storyline along a path of a logical evolution. Expect related topics, either personal or public to resurface on the dates shown in the future. Increased importance is placed on the matters that emerge resulting from the impact of the Solar Eclipse and show marked changes on the three dates that follow in the above table. By following the symbolism of the four Moon phases/stages, you develop greater insights to timing and meaning of the events in your life. As the phases form at nine month intervals, you will see your events emerge now as new beginnings at the New Moon stage; to the progressive and enthusiastic growth stage at the First Quarter Moon; Full Moons bring deadlines, full disclosure, case presentations, weddings and the like; to finally, pay-off or reward at the stage that brings matters to a close by the time the Last Quarter Moon occurs. (for solar eclipses and new Moons.) To reflect on the last reference of this eclipse use the longer 19-year Metonic cycle when a solar eclipse occurred at the same zodiacal position on September 22, 1987. The next eclipse on this date and zodiacal position is on September 22, 2025. The sign Virgo of this New Moon & Solar Eclipse offers clues of the nature of the matters at hand. Please refer to How to use the Moon phase table. The new Lunar Shadows II will be available here, and thru Amazon.com, soon!
