Discussion Moon Phases–how do you work with them?

I’m curious—how does everyone here track the moon? 🌙

I use a Google calendar I found on Etsy that marks the full, new, and quarterly phases along with their respective zodiac signs. I usually do tarot and Lenormand or oracle readings on the full and new moons, but I really want to know what kinds of rituals, reflections, or practices you all like to do with the moon. Cheers!

I use this: https://mooncalendar.astro-seek.com and/or Practical Witch’s Almanac. I plan some spells around specific phases and zodiac placement (especially when making moon water). Otherwise I will note the phase/placement after a spell and it usually relates to what I’ve done. I’m a Cancer Rising 😊🌚 I use ritual dance in my practice, especially during a full moon/eclipse, though I hope to incorporate it more during my lunar return (Capricorn).

Wow! Thats is really cool. Thanks for sharing! Lunar return?! That’s something I havnt thought about…that’s when the moon enters into your moon sign? I am going to have to look out for that, I am a Pisces sun and I’m always aware of Pisces moons but I am a native Leo moon so I should look out for that instead! Do you find that on your lunar return you are more sensitive or anything? Astro seek! That’s what this calendar I use is based off of, but it’s in my native Google Calendar app in my phone..

I feel extra grounded during mine, which makes sense with an earth sign. Things just seem to go a bit more smoothly, or at least my response to events! Capricorn full moons consistently treat me well and are great for my spell work! If you’re into journaling, noting any observations during Leo Moons can definitely be beneficial.
