Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse

J McCaul Mar 22, 2013

The first of two solar eclipses in 2013 will be on May 9th/10th in the southern hemisphere near Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia and over the South Pacific. The eclipse will be annular, meaning that this will be like a total eclipse but with a ring of light peeking out around the moon.

Approximately two weeks before the solar eclipse will be the lunar eclipse over the eastern hemisphere on April 25, 2013. This eclipse will be a penumbral, meaning that it may not be too visible since it will be short and partial.

Solar Eclipse Path - November 13, 2012

This miniature map gives you a good sense of where the total eclipse will be visible. The view-ability will be limited due to the location over the south pacific ocean. This eclipse belongs to the saros series 133. Check out the time for your area, even if you don't get the chance to see it.

First Lunar Eclipse 2012 in June

J McCaul May 28, 2012

The first lunar eclipse for 2012, June 4, is a partial eclipse of lunar saros series 140. Although some areas of the United States will get to experience, the majority of the eclipse will occur over the Pacific Ocean. The southwestern section of Alaska and all of Hawaii will get to view the partial lunar eclipse without any sunlight competition.

Most of Australia will get to view the eclipse as the moon rises (between 6 - 10 pm depending on location) while all of the west coast in the United States should be able to see a good portion of the partial eclipse as the moon is setting between 3:00 and 5:00 a.m. PDT on the west coast (between 4 and 6 a.m. MDT).

If you know your timezone, you can adjust the times of the current eclipses. Countries in the eastern hemisphere add + (plus) and western hemisphere (Americas) add - (minus) to their timezone. If you don't know your timezone, there is a "what's my timezone" link at the bottom of the eclipse page to help you find it. It will show "You are currently at GMT+/-..." for your number (hour difference) based on the time setting in your browser. *Requires javascript enabled.

Annular Eclipse Class Act

J McCaul May 20, 2012

The Annular Solar Eclipse of May 20/21, 2012 was spectacular. Many of those living on the West Coast of USA got the pleasure of watching the eclipse unfold. Many photos are posted via slooh.com and I believe there are a few youtube.com videos as well. If you didn't get the chance to watch it yourself, treat yourself to the great photography around the internet.

The animated eclipse that I have here is a total eclipse, but just as much fun, although much faster than the real one. Enjoy!

Venus' Wild Drive into Retrograde Motion

April 22, 2012

Now that Mars has finished up the retrograde motion in Virgo, we can start preparing for Venus to begin the retrograde motion in Gemini. Both signs are ruled by Mercury, so Mercury will again play a strong role in the Venus retrograde. Another interesting fact is that as soon as Venus ingressed Gemini on April 3, the planet also began an Out of Bounds transit that will last for two months.

Venus will start the retrograde motion transit on May 15 and transit in retrograde until June 27. Venus will leave Gemini on August 7. This makes for a very long Venus visit this year. The last time that Venus was retrograde motioning in Gemini was May 16 - June 29, 2004.

Mars in Retrograde Motion

January 23, 2012

Tomorrow, the retrograde transit of Mars will begin in the sign of Virgo. This is not all bad, you know! There are some real perks to the Mars transiting backward through Virgo. Did you know that there are a slew of well known athletes born with the Retrograde Mars in Virgo? Who woulda thought of that? Read the article posted at JAstrology Blogspot to learn more about this one.

If you just want to keep track on the dates/times of the retrograde or the transit of Mars, Moon Tracks has a page for that in our Planet Ingress section. Mars Transit Information

Incorporating the Theme

January 7, 2012 by J McCaul

You just might notice a change in some of your favorite pages. I spent this first week of January upgrading and redesigning some of the pages that originated at Lunar Living Astrology to fit better with the Moon Tracks Web theme. I left the basic calendars alone since those are easier to read as is. However, the following pages have been revamped:

  • Monthly Ephemerides
  • Monthly Moon Phase Calendar 2000-2015
  • Daily Activities by the Moon
  • Power Days
  • Daily Transits Graph

On some of these, the page URL has changed. If you have bookmarks for any of these pages, you might want to update that bookmark. The information is still the same, just the presentation and format have been changed to correspond with the page layouts.

Lunar Calendar

The main focus of our astrology calendars is on the Moon; "La Luna." So we have a wide range of lunar calendars pertaining to the Moon's movement through the zodiac, the void of course (VOC) transit, the Moon's phases, and the important dates of New Moon, Full Moon and Eclipse events. The daily activities guide is a useful tool for planning through the month.

Planet Calendars

The Moon's transit is not the only important information. We also provide dates concerning planetary ingress, retrograde motion, overall planetary influence charts, and older calendars so that you can always look back in time.

Ephemeris Tables

The day to day information about transits would not be complete without access to an ephemeris. All the ephemeris tables and charts on this site are created using GMT unless indicated otherwise on that page. Many individuals are curious about declination information. Follow the links on the declination page to read more about the purpose of declination charts.

Time Zones Adjustable

Although not an astrology calendar, per se, the Eclipses, Full Moon and New Moon information pages allow the guest to adjust the time of the event to his/her time zone. This adjustable function gives the most complete information for planning the day in accordance to the Moon and Eclipse events. Most of the Moon Tracks astrology calendar times/dates are "stationary" based on Pacific Standard Time (PST) or Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). However, under our Moon Calendar category, the three pages have a changeable option with the default Universal Time (UT).
