I have been reading about how the phase of the moon you are born under affects you. I was born under the "dark of the moon" or balsamic phase; this is said to be a karmic and reaping life....
I was wondering if anyone else has this and how it has affected them.
Thanks!IP: Logged |

The balsamic phase is when the moon is dark, the day or so before the new moon begins. Here are some things I read:

I have it too.My ZET program says: "Waning Balsamic Moon
If you were born during the Balsamic Moon phase, you tend to focus on the future. You may have premonitions and be able to foresee events, and believe that fate has an important role in your life. You are also likely to have leadership abilities.
If you are a farmer or gardener, this is the best time to cultivate, plow, turn sod, pull weeds, and destroy pests of all kinds, especially if the Moon is in a barren sign (Aries, Leo, Virgo, Gemini, Aquarius, and Sagittarius). " ------------------

I've got a half moon. I think this is the interpretation for mine:3) First Quarter: First Quarter people are positive and strong-willed. Physically and mentally active and expressive, you are constantly on the go, taking a healthy interest in everything that you come across. You were born with an actively questioning mind and an impulse to change the status quo. On the negative side, this can make you appear argumentative and demanding. Used constructively, however, this also enables you to come up with new solutions to old problems. Above all else you are a builder, and, if it appears you have a compulsion to tear down existing structures, it is merely because you have the ability to replace them with something that is not only more up-to-date, but is unquestionably an improvement on the past. You will produce some of your greatest endeavors in your thirties and early forties. Could be right. IP: Logged |

I'm a full moon I like this interpretation:Full Moon (180 -225 degrees ahead of sun) The full moon is the pinnacle, the climactic point. Now we get answers. You'll see a lot of extremes now. The way you interpret those has a lot to do with your inner landscape -- you reflect what's going on around you. With such a polarity, projection runs rampant. If you go outside and see people acting like lunatics, that's your projection. If everyone looks beautiful, that's also your interpretation. What you perceive depends on how you're feeling. The gravitational pull of both sun and moon, with the earth in middle, sets up these extremes. The trick here is to find balance. If we're out of balance, we'll go one way or the other; we'll either be blinded by the light, or we won't even see it. The moon's magnetic pull makes this a very powerful time. Whatever Sun Sign the full moon is in has a strong effect on our energies. That effect will play out according to each person's individual chart. A lot tends to happen around the full moon: more people end up in emergency rooms, the police scanners go wild. But it's also a time for romance. The play of light over the water, the moon hanging in the branches of trees, the huge orb rising over a cityscape -- all these put us more in touch with our creature sense. Time to howl at the moon. The full moon is also associated with fertilization and ovulation.

First Quarter Moon
If you were born during the First Quarter Moon phase, you are action oriented, have leadership qualities and the ability to get results. You are inclined to push too hard to achieve your ideals.
In general, the First Quarter Moon signals a period of accelerated growth. Life is full of activity, organisation, enthusiasm and drive; it is the time when Will can be put into action. Here is the energy and empowerment to build the foundation for one's dreams. Of course decisions have to be made and fears dealt with, but now is the time to move ahead.
If you are a farmer or gardener, this is the time to plant annuals that produce their yield above the ground, particularly leafy plants that produce their seed on the outside of the fruit. Examples are asparagus, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, cress, endive, kohlrabi, lettuce, parsley, spinach, etc. Cucumbers do better in this quarter than the second, even though their seeds are inside the fruit; they are therefore an exception to this rule. This is also the time to plant cereals and grains.
Full Moon
If you were born during the Full Moon, you tend to focus on the significance and meaning of relationships. This focus does not only apply to personal relationships, but to every kind of relationship. Because of this, relationships tend to play a prominently role in your own life.
In general, the Full Moon brings brilliance and blossoming. It is a phase of personal fulfillment, but also a period for searching for deeper meaning in one's achievements. This is also a time for relationships and there is a need to share and to merge with others, whether this be romantically or through business or other channels.

I think I'm a Balsamic, but I'm not positive. The one link showed what the moon looked like, but it didn't say which phase of the moon it is....  IP: Logged |

an astrologer friend of mine uses the moon's phases extensively to tell her where people are at at a particular time. but it is a different system she learned (i think) from dane rudhyar, with many more phases, which i don't understand. try as i might her explanations don't make sense and i've never found his work on this! any illuminators out there??IP: Logged |
