How this reflection is chosen
We calculate the Moon’s tropical zodiac sign at the exact Full Moon, then count whole signs from your chosen Sun sign as house 1. This simplified solar-house convention differs from a personal birth chart, which needs birth time and location. The prompts are original editorial interpretations, not scientific findings.
For continuity, we feature an exact Full Moon until 48 hours after its peak, then show the upcoming one. This is our reading window, not a claim that the astronomical Full Moon lasts 48 hours. Times use your device’s time zone once the page loads.

How are these two kinds of information different?
The Moon’s phase, the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, and exact phase times are calculated from astronomy data. The zodiac names here use Western tropical divisions of the ecliptic.
What a Full Moon “means for your sign” is an interpretation from astrology. It has not been shown to predict a person’s mood, choices, or future events.
