Moon Phases for February 2010 with Zodiactivities

If you are not sure how to determine the moon’s phase in the sky, there’s an explanatory page on this blog, Moon Phase ~ Waxing or Waning? There are current moon phase pics for both Northern and Southern Hemispheres on the sidebar. You can find links to almanacs and ephemerides here.

February’s Moon starts out in the Waning phase, as do all the Moons of 2010. The Moon has been decreasing in light (waning) since the Full Wolf Moon of January 30th. The Moon will continue to wane until the New Moon in Aquarius on Saturday, February 13th. At that point, the Moon is in the Waxing phase and will continue to wax until the Full Snow Moon on Sunday, February 28th.

Visit Zodiacarts for a monthly moon phase calendar with notes on the Void-of-Course Moon and “handshake days” which are geared toward business activities.
