> THE NEW MOON phase(1degree to 45degrees ahead of the Sun) indicates
 that in the present incarnation the soul-entity is initiating a fresh 
cycle of experience. The time has come to rise to the challenge of new 
goals, ideas, or experiences. Like the Arian, the new Moon person is 
impulsive. The new Moon represents a call to action. This individual 
feels compelled to project desires forcefully in order to make an 
impression. If we liken the lunar cycle to the growth of a plant, we can
 say that the new Moon is analogous to the moment when the seed springs 
forth from the mother plant. 
> THE WAXING CRESCENT MOON 
phase(46d-90d) implies that the seed has sprouted and is working its way
 toward the light. Momentum is being gained on the trajectory launched 
under the new Moon. Former emotional bonds and completed tasks have been
 relegated to the realm of memory as the outward bound soul 
enthusiastically strives in the direction of its fresh ideal. 
> 
THE FIRST QUARTER phase(91d-135d) is a testing phase. Momentum brings 
resistance, or, as occultists say, the drive toward perfection brings 
imperfection to the surface. In the life cycle of a plant, it is during 
this third stage that the infant herb-let must either push through the 
ground or die. The soul in the first quarter phase is challenged by 
crisis, and may therefore appear combative. The evolving entity is 
impelled to reach out from known to unknown realms with respect to the 
objective undertaken during the new Moon. 
> THE WAXING GIBBOUS 
MOON phase (136d-180d) ushers in a phase of anticipation, launching a 
period of spiritual apprenticeship and perfection of form. During this 
stage, the soul strives for balance, laying the foundations of work and 
service which enable the consciousness to blossom forth under the full 
Moon. At this stage, the plant has grown to a respectable size and 
sprouted leaves. 
> THE FULL MOON phase (181d-225d) can be 
symbolized by the plant in full flower. This is a period of 
illumination, of awareness, and of consummation in which the soul-entity
 will allow the perfected personality to expend all its energies for the
 sake of its mission. Under this phase, the soul gains perspective. 
>
 THE DISSEMINATING MOON or WANING GIBBOUS MOON phase (226d-270d) is 
represented by the flowers whose petals are scattered by the winds. The 
objective awareness achieved under the full Moon is ready to be spread 
to the world at large. The very word 'disseminating' means 'to spread 
abroad, as though sowing seed.' In this distributive stage, the 
personality gives active expression to whatever ideas have impressed it 
most deeply. 
> THE LAST QUARTER MOON phase(271d-315d) is akin to 
the seed pods coming to a head on the mature plant. Astrologers 
associate this phase with Saturn, which constructs, and with Uranus, 
which transforms the life essence. Many rebels and political radicals 
who give birth to revolutionary ideas are born under the last quarter. 
What the individual does now is likely to be recapitulated under the 
later cycle during the next new Moon incarnation. 
> THE BALSAMIC 
MOON or WANING CRESCENT MOON phase(316d-359d) represents the end of the 
karmic round. The mature plant is ready to let its seeds blow in the 
winds until they find a spot where they can grow on their own. In an 
existence marked by this phase, the individual is concerned with 
wrapping up old projects and loose ends. A powerful desire to rectify 
the misdeeds of the past can lead to preoccupation with memories of 
bygone days. Such reminisces may be an unhealthy obsession, or they may 
enrich the soul with the essence of garnered experience. At the same 
time, one may look wistfully toward the future in anticipation of a new 
karmic cycle and a new purpose to be undertaken under the coming new 
Moon.
