How to read a Moon calendar

Retrograde motion

Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune

Seen from Earth, a planet sometimes appears to move backwards through the zodiac. Its orbit does not change; the effect comes from the shifting viewpoint between Earth and the planet.

Retrogrades explained

Aspects

Closest to exact: Sextile between Venus and Jupiter, 0.03° away

An aspect is an angle between two bodies along the zodiac, such as 90° for a square or 120° for a trine. Astrology reads aspects as relationships between planetary themes; this page lists the measured angles only.

Aspects in astrology

Bodies, signs, and motion

Longitude and latitude are measured along the true ecliptic of date. “Retrograde” means the body’s apparent motion along the zodiac runs backwards at this moment; the table adds no interpretation. “Near station” means it moves less than 0.005° per day. Values are rounded only for display.

Reproducible calculation

How these positions and times were calculated

These sky positions and event times are calculated with the settings below. They are kept separate from astrological interpretation and can be reproduced from the named engine.

Every value on this page uses the same moment, so positions and aspects can be compared directly. It is a geocentric view of the sky, not a birth chart or the horizon above a particular city.

“Today” follows the calendar date in UTC. Every dated page keeps the same 12:00 UTC moment.

Positions are shown rounded to 0.001°; the data files keep the full values and exact UTC times. Event times are found to within one second, though other astronomy software may differ slightly. The main Moon phases also agree with an independent source to within five minutes. Read the complete methodology and limitations.
