Today's ephemeris
The sky today
These are the positions for this moment, from the same ephemeris ASTRA uses for birth charts. They are geocentric, so they hold anywhere in the world: the only thing your time zone changes is the clock time.
The Moon today
The Moon is in Leo, at 22°22′. Waning crescent, with 18% of the disc lit.
Enters Virgo on
In Leo the Moon wants to be seen. The need for recognition, play and expressing oneself with a bit of theatre rises. It is warm and generous, and also quicker to take offence when it feels overlooked.
Upcoming phases
- New moon
- First quarter
- Full moon
- Last quarter

Retrograde planets
Retrograde right now: Venus (Scorpio), Saturn (Aries), Uranus (Gemini), Neptune (Aries), Pluto (Aquarius).
A planet is retrograde when, seen from Earth, it appears to move backwards through the zodiac. It is an effect of perspective —Earth overtakes it, or it overtakes Earth, in their orbits— and astrology reads it as a time to review, revisit and correct what that planet stands for. The Sun and the Moon are never retrograde.
