Green lovers follow the Moon's cycle for gardening, just as hairdressers observe it to know the best time to cut or color hair. Recently, CNRS researcher Professor Marc Henry even theorized the impact of the Moon, to scientifically prove its influence.

Lunar calendar 2021
During its cycle, the Moon will cross the zodiac. Every two days, the Moon changes constellation and sets its bags in a new astrological sign. its influence will therefore vary. Therefore, there is a lunar horoscope, which appears every day, and a horoscope that allows you to align your menstrual cycle with the position of the Moon. During these 28 days, the moon also turns on itself and also oscillates around the Sun. Never illuminated in the same way, it appears in different forms. Its cycle then begins with the New Moon, when it is invisible in the sky, then the Moon will grow until it becomes Full, a fortnight later. Once past the Full Moon, the moon wanes, regains its crescent shape, before disappearing again. It is in its form that the lunar calendar is interested. Every day, the position of the Moon is referenced. This way you can tell if the Moon is Full, waning New, or waxing.
How to read this lunar calendar? The Full Moons of each month are indicated by a white circle surrounded by small rays. Conversely, the New Moon is notified by a Black Moon, forming a black circle around which are rays. Finally, eclipses are notified by a white circle with a small black dot on it.

Depending on whether it is a Fire, Air, Earth or Water sign, the Full Moon will not have the same effect. Some will tend to make us more emotional, while others will rekindle our anger or even a desire to party. this is why it is important to observe the sign in which the Moon is located.
Full Moon: the dates to remember
Less well known than the Full Moon, the New Moon is the other major phase of the lunar cycle.

Take stock of what just happened this month, and especially make a list of what you want to achieve the following month. For the healer, Theresa Cheung, expert in divine healing, astrology and author of the book Discover the healing powers of the Moon, the New Moon “can also be seen as a time when the beautiful feminine qualities of reflection and presence take precedence over the masculine principles of action and dynamism”.
