The current MOON PHASE:  First Quarter Moon at 9° SCORPIO 56' on Wednesday, August 3, 2006 at 4:46 a.m. EDT. Expect increased importance for all current matters because of the relationship that this Last Quarter Moon has to two eclipses. In the following table, there are the four related Moon phases that form a group called a “Moon Family”. A Moon Family is special because each phase shares a lineage with this week's First Quarter Moon. This Moon Family began with a New Moon nine months ago. Notice all four Moon phases occur near the same zodiacal location and are separated by nine-month intervals. A Moon family is a remarkable timing tool that links the dates of your story-lines in a pattern that develops over a two-and-a-quarter-year period. I have named this pattern the “Lunar Gestation Cycle” and, when grouped, it forms a “Moon Family”. See if your current situation connects to the dates in the table:

New Moon Solar Eclipse  First Quarter Moon  Full Moon Lunar Eclipse  Last Quarter Moon 11/01/2005 09° Scorpio 43´ 08/02/2006 09° Scorpio 56´ 05/02/2007 11° Scorpio 38´ 01/30/2008 09° Scorpio 40´

By studying the changes in a story-line that began at the onset of this Moon family you can find related issues reached a natural evolution near the four dates in the above table. The symbolism of the four Moon phases is seen as stages to the events. You will be able to gain greater insights to timing and meaning of the events in your life by piecing together the puzzle. Any Moon Family with or without eclipses shows the phases formed at nine month intervals. Events emerge as new beginnings at the New Moon stage; to the progressive and enthusiastic growth stage at the First Quarter Moon; Full Moons bring deadlines, full disclosure, case presentations, weddings and the like; to finally, pay-off or reward at the stage that brings matters to a close by the time the Last Quarter Moon occurs. In this case the level of importance of the surrounding issues are pumped up to maximum. The sign Scorpio of this First Quarter Moon offers clues of the nature of the matters at hand.
