The Sun is always lighting the side of the Moon that faces it, but we don't always see the illuminated side as the Moon circles us, approximately monthly. While this light cycle of the Moon is continuous and unbroken, eight lunar phases offer a way to mark the transitions in the shape of the Moon's reflected light during its monthly cycle. In this excerpt from Llewellyn's Moon Sign Datebook, astrologer Amy Herring breaks down the eight phases of the moon and what they mean for your natal moon phase.

Sometimes as many as six eclipses take place. Their presence creates intense periods that often start to manifest a few months before the eclipses actually occur. This article from Llewellyn's 2024 Moon Sign Book, examines possible outcomes or meanings for the eclipses through the houses, using the natural wheel of the zodiac beginning with Aries and ending with Pisces. Your natal chart drives the actual houses where these eclipses occur. Natal planets in those houses affect the intensity of the eclipse; the closer to a conjunction, the more powerful the effect.
