According to astrological tradition, the moon is considered the star of emotions. Thanks to its function in the zodiac, we regulate our moods, but sometimes we also suffer from its consequences… Its presence seems as essential for human life as for the planet Earth, of which it is the natural satellite.
Each month the night star begins a new cycle of approximately 29 days, during which it passes through various phases through the zodiac constellations. Knowing the main stages she goes through will help you understand your moods and use her energy to your advantage.

The New Moon is by definition the conjunction on the same degree of the same zodiac constellation of the two celestial bodies. It is the first phase of the lunar cycle and its surface is imperceptible to us because the Sun illuminates the face of the night star, which is not visible from Earth. This time of the month is conducive to new beginnings and creating projects. You can use the energy of the Night Star to your advantage during this time to make changes to your routine, start physical activity, sign contracts, and anything related to renewals. In June 2024 the New Moon will be in Gemini, therefore we can be very prone to mentality and indecisiveness. You are advised to think carefully before taking any action and avoid becoming too distracted from what you are doing.

This is the second phase of the lunar cycle, and especially the phase that pushes us to remain dynamic and seek growth. This is a great week of the month to make progress on what we’ve started, and we’re seeing the results of our efforts. The seed planted at the New Moon germinates, and it is important to stay active during the seven or so days that make up the seed. This month the first quarter will appear in the Earth constellation Virgo. This is a good time to pay attention to the details and refinement of our current projects.
Full Moon in Capricorn: June 22, 2024 at 3:07 AM

This moon phase is the best known and also the most intense. It is during this period that the moon shows us its round and pearly surface, which reflects the sun’s rays with great intensity. By definition, the Full Moon is the total opposition between the two celestial bodies, which occurs in the middle of the lunar cycle. This 180 degree positioning of the Sun and Moon is considered the pinnacle and is very powerful for our emotions. This is the time when lunar energy invites us to rest and introspection to shed light on the less resolved aspects of what we have undertaken. The Full Moon is not a time for commitment or construction, let alone the implementation of major medical interventions. This time of the month is considered a time to bring clarity to the mind and clear it of what we find heavy or unnecessary. Paradoxically, this is usually the period when the effects make rest less effective. Hence the importance of a healthy lifestyle. In June 2024, this lunation will be placed in the sign of Capricorn, and its energy will be more serious and determined than ever, so we will have to tune in to it.
Last Quarter Moon: June 28, 2024 at 11:53 PM

The end of the lunar cycle is a time of evaluation and closure. It is often a time of the month when we encounter certain difficulties and it is not unusual to have fluctuating moods and sometimes conflicting emotions. According to astrology, this is the time to eliminate the elements of our lives that we have decided we no longer want during the Full Moon, the previous moon phase of the cycle. Then action is taken and goodbye is said. In this phase we make room for new ideas, emotions, people and situations, but with a sense of inner mourning. The last quarter of June 2024 is placed under the sign of Aries. This is why you will be more determined than ever to perform emotional cleansing. Keep this in mind, but think carefully before closing certain horizons permanently.
By following the moon cycles you can be in harmony with your emotions
In the past, people were more connected to their natural satellite. With the advent of electric light and various modern lifestyles, we no longer use the night star as a nighttime guide, but its planetary function remains intact.
This celestial body, visible to the naked eye, regulates gravity, tides and the life cycle of certain types of terrestrial flora and fauna. This makes us believe that its impact on our animal nature is much greater than we think. Following the cycle of the moon using astrology can allow you to understand your moods and your energetic variations, respect them and live in better harmony on a cosmic level.
