Introduction
As the night sky darkens everything in sight, the moon emerges as a symbol of hope that there is light in the darkest of times. It also encapsulates the idea of change and growth in life through its various phases. The beauty reflected in every phase is an affirmation of the presence of beauty in the ups and downs of life. Moon with all its magical teachings possesses its own energy much like everything else in the universe. Tapping into this energy can open the doors of divine guidance for you. Hence, aligning your tarot sessions with lunar phases can make them much more detailed and insightful. For this blog, we will take a brief look at the energy of each lunar phase and how aligning it with a reading can transform your journey of growth.Tools for Beginners
The First thing you need to know is that there are approximately 8 phases in a month that you need to keep track of. So, when you start a reading in every phase there is a central theme that captures the essence of that phase’s energy. Keeping the main theme in mind, you draw a spread of 3 more cards with a certain query assigned to each. The questions can be anything based on the context of your reading. For example, 1st Card: Seeking understanding of something that’s happening in your life. 2nd Card: Possible challenges you might experience in the process. 3rd Card: Guidance on how you can overcome them.- New Moon

To set the moon phase on a classic moon dial clock, you need to align the dial using a recent full moon. Check a lunar calendar for your specific location.
Follow these steps to perfectly sync your clock:
- Count the days: If a full moon was 3 days ago, the number is +3. If the next full moon is 3 days away, the number is -3.
- Do the math: Add (for past full moons) or subtract (for future full moons) that number from 15, which represents the middle of the lunar month.
- Align the dial: Gently rotate the dial clockwise until the center of the moon aligns with your calculated number on the tick scale.
Most Tarot readers believe that the cards provide the clearest guidance during the Full Moon phase, as this time enhances the diviner's intuition. In simple terms, a reading conducted during the Full Moon is considered the most powerful.
To line up tarot cards (lay a spread), shuffle the deck while focusing on your question, cut the deck into three piles, and reassemble it. Lay the chosen cards face-up in your desired layout, such as a horizontal row for a past, present, and future reading.
To see if your moon phases "match", you need to find the lunar phases on your respective birthdays and see if they visually complete each other to form a perfect full moon.
Follow these steps to check your match:
- Find Your Moon Phase: Go to the Farmers' Almanac Moon Phase Calculator or Moonglow and enter your birthdate to see the exact lunar phase you were born under.
- Find Their Moon Phase: Do the same for the other person's birthday.
- Check for Compatibility: If you were born during opposite phases (e.g., a New Moon and a Full Moon, or a First Quarter and Last Quarter), your phases are said to "match" and complete each other.
