Every month each of us has one Lunar Return – it happens when the Moon returns to the sign and position it was when You were born. The cycle of the Moon through the Zodiac signs lasts approximately 27 days until it returns to the same position. That means You have Your Lunar Return on the different days of the month.
The Lunar Return is like a personal New Moon phase or it might be also called Your monthly birthday. Each month the Moon gives You re-birth energy and a chance to renew Yourself with all the opportunities and Your potential. The cycle represents a new beginning and is based on the premise that everything that You‘ve started flows from the initial conditions. In other words, the beginning of the cycle is the foundation of the whole month.
Observing and working with Your Lunar Return is the way of aligning Your life with Cosmic energies. It‘s not only a beautiful inspiring time for You, it also describes the emotional impact of the planets or the planetary energies which they will have on You for the upcoming month. You can find out the energies that will be important for You, as well as the emphasized spheres of life.
