First Quarter Moon – March 25th, 2026
Cancer 0º51′ (Aries Sun)

Gestation Cycles

The moon travels in lunar families with each quarter happening every nine months. The New Moon begins the Lunar family. Each nine month quarter is a great time to look back at the last nine months to see how much you have grown, what you would like to let go, and what you would like to harvest.

I have found that many of the intentions I set on or around a given new moon come to fruition around two to three years later – while some adventures begin about nine months after setting the intention. 

What intentions were you nurturing during the Cancer New Moon nine months ago?

Using the Moon for Co-creating with the Cosmos

NEW MOON –  Time to use your imagination.  Unseen potentials. Seed. Set Intentions. 

FIRST QUARTER – Seedling pushes through dirt. Nurture, observe, Review, weed, take action. 

FULL MOON – Full Flower, Full Awareness, Celebration. Commit. Still time to weed. 

LAST QUARTER – Harvest. Reap rewards (or karma). Sort, review. Mix new seeds with prize seeds

I have been working with the moon phases since the 1990s. I love tracking time with the moon! 

Check out the Cancer New Moon Tarot Draw – it’s a very good time to set new intentions. 

Peace and love –
