My Personal Relationship With the Lunar Return

I personally work with my Lunar Return every single month. It has become a quiet ritual for me — almost like a small meditation at the threshold of a new cycle.

When I look at my Lunar Return chart, I pause and ask myself:What am I feeling right now? What truly matters to me in this moment? Where is my emotional attention naturally going?

The Lunar Return does not rush me. It invites reflection. It helps me become aware of my inner state before the month begins, instead of understanding it only in hindsight.

What I find especially meaningful is looking back at past Lunar Returns. Retrospectively, the emotional tone of each month is often remarkably clear in the chart. What felt confusing while living through it suddenly makes sense afterward — the moods, the focus, the emotional priorities.

Living in Rhythm With the Moon

I often describe myself as a Moon person. I feel deeply connected to lunar cycles, lunar phases, and the Moon’s movement through the signs.

On a daily level, I notice that my mood aligns almost exactly with the Moon’s sign. Over time, this awareness has helped me stop resisting emotional shifts and instead understand them.

There are days meant for expression and visibility — Leo Moon days, when it feels natural to shine, create, and be seen.There are days for discipline and responsibility — Capricorn Moon days, when focus and structure come more easily.And there are days for comfort and pleasure — Taurus Moon days, when slowing down and enjoying life feels right.

Rather than judging these changes, following the Moon helps me accept them. It reminds me that it is as it is, and that each emotional state has its own purpose.

How the Lunar Return Sets the Emotional Tone of the Month

While the Moon’s daily movement reflects short-term moods, the Lunar Return sets the emotional climate for the entire month.

When I study my Lunar Return chart, I can sense what kind of month is unfolding emotionally:

• Will it be inward or outward?

• Focused or scattered?

• Heavy, reflective, or light and expressive?

It doesn’t tell me what will happen — it tells me how I am likely to experience what happens. That distinction is essential.

Knowing this in advance helps me respond rather than react. It allows me to work with the month instead of against it.

Why I Trust the Lunar Return

The longer I work with Lunar Returns, the more I trust them — not as a predictive tool in the strict sense, but as a guide to emotional awareness.

They help me understand:

• why certain months feel demanding

• why others feel softer or more expressive

• why my attention naturally moves toward specific areas of life

This understanding creates space for wiser decisions, self-compassion, and emotional honesty.

A Quiet Closing Reflection

For me, the Lunar Return is not about control.It is about listening.

Listening to the body, the emotions, and the inner rhythm that changes from month to month.

When we allow ourselves to move with these cycles, life becomes less about forcing outcomes — and more about understanding ourselves within the flow of time.
