Releasing toward the dark. The fastest light in the sky, 28.6 days into its round.
Lunar observatory · phase, voids, and returns
The phase, the sign, and the room.
For you personally, today's Moon is moving through your 9th house, so the day's feeling opens toward meaning, travel, and the wider world. You want horizon and possibility, and the mood is restless and seeking. A day to reach beyond the familiar. The Moon spends about two or three days in each house, lighting one area of your life at a time, the part of your world the day's feeling is touching.
Tender and inward. Cook, nest, call the person who feels like home. Protect your soft parts: rest is productive today.
Building. The first pushback against the old, the first real risks on the new direction.
October 23 to November 21. Fixed water. Ruled by Pluto. Co-ruled traditionally by Mars.
Scorpio is the eighth sign because after the encounter with the other in Libra, something has to happen that Libra alone cannot complete. The merging. The death. The transformation that occurs when two beings actually touch each other below the social surface. Scorpio is the principle of depth itself. The willingness to go where the light does not yet reach.
This is the sign of taboo, not because Scorpio is drawn to the shocking, but because Scorpio refuses to leave any room of the human experience unentered. Sex, death, money, power, secrets, the unconscious. The things polite society has agreed to manage at a distance. Scorpio goes in.

How this is computed
Secondary progression by the day-for-a-year method: the sky on your Nth day of life describes your Nth year. The birth time is read in the chart's chosen timezone, and “now” is taken in that same zone, so nothing here is measured against UTC.

Your Lunar Return
Every twenty-seven or so days the Moon comes back to the exact degree it held at your birth. The chart cast for that moment is a forecast for the emotional month it opens. Open the Lunar Return page →
Deep, intense, all-or-nothing. Good for honest conversations and real focus. Don't decide anything from suspicion.
Cast for Daet, Philippines: your birthplace.
In this return the Moon falls in the 4th house: the area of life the coming month asks you to feel your way through. The home. The roots. The family. The ground beneath the feet.
The return chart rises in Cancer: the tone you tend to meet the month in, the mood it greets you with.
The return moment is fixed by the sky. Relocating only changes the house it lands in and the rising sign: the month read for where you will actually be.
Void-of-course Moon
As the Moon crosses a sign it makes a run of aspects. After its last one, until it enters the next sign, it makes none: it runs void of course, between rulers. The old rule is that "nothing will come of it." A void Moon is poor for launches, signings and weighty decisions, and good for routine, rest, reflection and finishing.
In a void window the old rule is that nothing comes of it. So it is poor for launches, signings and weighty decisions, and good for routine, rest, reflection and finishing what's already begun.

Your New Moons ahead, by house
Each upcoming New Moon falls in one of Bretman Rock's natal houses: the area of life it switches on. The date is the window to start something there.
It asks you to begin belief, travel, the wider view. Start a study, a journey, a search for meaning beyond the familiar.
It asks you to begin career, reputation, your public path. Plant a seed for what you want to be known for.
It asks you to begin friendship, community, the future you are building. Begin something with or for your people.
It asks you to begin rest, release, the inner life. A quiet New Moon: set an intention to let go and replenish.
Your Full Moons ahead, by house
Each upcoming Full Moon falls in one of Bretman Rock's natal houses: the area of life it brings to a head. The date is when it comes to light.
Something said, learned or written reaches completion: a conversation finishes, an idea lands, a last word is spoken.
A home or family matter culminates: a move, a healing, a shift at the root. Something at the foundation is seen clearly, or released.
A creative work or a romance reaches its peak. Celebrate what has bloomed, or release what has run its natural course.
A job, a habit or a health effort comes to fruition. Complete it. And shed the routine that no longer serves the body.
