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.
New
The Moon is in its New phase, with an illumination of 1.50%. 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 Full Moon is on May 31, 2026 at 4:46 AM EDT and the next New Moon is on June 14, 2026 at 10:55 PM EDT.

Gemini
The Moon is transiting through Gemini at 9°59'. When the Moon is in Gemini, emotions are more playful and curious. People feel like talking, learning new things, and connecting with others through conversation.

Moon Distance
The Moon is 358,106.6 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.

Moon Brightness
The magnitude (brightness) of the moon is -8.23. 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.

Moon Angular Radius
The apparent angular radius of the moon is 0.28° (or 16.71 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.

House Cusps

The house cusp positions show where each of the twelve houses begins, marking their exact zodiac sign and degree. These cusps define the boundaries between houses, with each house governing a specific area of life.
