How to use it

Reading a month

The order that matters

Lunations set the rhythm: a new Moon begins the month's main theme, the full Moon two weeks later brings it to light. Stations change the tempo: a planet turning retrograde sends its themes into review, a planet turning direct releases them. Ingresses change the style: a planet entering a sign starts doing the same job in a new way. An eclipse is a lunation with a six-month window; treat it as the month's headline.
