   ☾New moon in Aries

   The dark of the moon. A beginning that nobody can see yet.

   Moon in Aries: quick and direct. Good for starting, poor for waiting.

2. Thursday, April 19

   ✦Cerealia

   For Ceres, of grain and growth. Held when the crop is in the ground and out of your hands — the work is done, the waiting is the work now.

4. Saturday, April 28

   ✦Floralia

   Six days for Flora and the flowering. Colour, licence, and delight — a season that insists on being enjoyed rather than only harvested.

Computed with astronomy-engine, which follows the NASA JPL ephemerides. Times are Central (Daylight or Standard as the date falls) and UTC; a moon is one instant for the whole world, so only the clock changes with the zone.

The week after the new moon is for beginning what you decided on at the dark of the moon. The full moon is when it shows, and the days after it are for looking honestly at how it went. The last week before the next new moon is for finishing and clearing. That is the whole method, and the app runs a planner on it for people who run businesses.

The sign each moon falls in colours it. The lines under each moon above say what that sign is like; the house wheel says which of your own houses it lands in, from your rising sign.
