Moon

As the Moon moves through different zodiac signs, it guides our daily emotions and gut reactions. The sign it’s in shows how we care for ourselves and others and shapes how we respond to what happens around us.

The Moon is in its Disseminating phase, with an illumination of 79.04%. The Moon's phase results from how the Earth, Moon, and Sun align. Each phase has its own astrological significance and influences how we experience emotions and energies. The next New Moon is on May 16, 2026 at 4:01 PM EDT and the next Full Moon is on May 31, 2026 at 4:46 AM EDT.

The Moon is transiting through Capricorn at 10°40'. The Moon in Capricorn brings a serious and focused mood. People may feel more responsible and want to work toward goals or make plans that give them a strong foundation.

The Moon is 404,362.8 km away from Earth. This distance represents the current separation between the Earth's center and the Moon's center, which varies throughout the lunar orbit as the moon follows an elliptical rather than circular path.

The magnitude (brightness) of the moon is -12.27. This is a measurement of the Moon's visual brightness as seen from Earth, where lower (more negative) numbers represent brighter objects. It varies throughout the lunar cycle, reaching a maximum (around -12.7) during a Full Moon.

The apparent angular radius of the moon is 0.25° (or 14.78 arcminutes) when viewed from the earth. This measurement describes how large the moon looks against the sky, expressed as an angle rather than a physical size.
