- A Powerful Timing Technique: Secondary Progressions
While our natal charts are a snapshot of the sky at the moment we were born, the planets keep moving and their progressions can indicate how we grow and evolve over time. Secondary Progressions is a great timing technique to understand our internal pulses and rhythms as we move through life. In this episode, Astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman talk about how to work with Secondary Progressions as a timing technique and how to interpret progressions when reading a natal chart.

38 min - What do the Phases of the Moon Mean in Astrology?
Knowing what Moon phase you were born under can give rich and deeply personal interpretive detail to help you better understand yourself and your birth chart. Knowing what the Moon's doing in the sky can help us better attune to nature's cycles, paying attention to when is a good time to grow and when we need to focus on releasing. In this episode, Astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman talk about the 8 phases of the Moon, what they mean and how to interpret them in a birth chart.
Link to our episode about temperament and elements.
MOON PHASE DEGREES:
Note: these phases fade in and out, so if you are born near the cusp between two phases you may relate to both or one more than the other (a Moon 179 degrees away from the Sun is definitely full, even if it's technically still in the waxing gibbous phase)
- New Moon: 0-44 degrees ahead of the Sun
- Waxing Crescent: 45-89 degrees ahead of the Sun
- First Quarter: 90-134 degrees ahead of the Sun
- Waxing Gibbous: 135-179 degrees ahead of the Sun
- Full Moon: 180-224 degrees ahead of the Sun
- Disseminating: 225-269 degrees ahead of the Sun
- Last Quarter: 270-314 degrees ahead of the Sun
- Balsamic: 315-359 degrees ahead of the Sun
