What it shows

The sign the Moon is in right now, her phase from New to Full and back, whether she is void of course, and when she enters the next sign, all in your reader's own timezone. The drawing of the Moon matches the real lit fraction and the side it is lit from. Nothing is cached from yesterday: every load asks the ephemeris.

It suits astrology blogs, yoga and wellness studios, gardening sites that plant by the Moon, and anyone who writes a weekly horoscope. For the full picture, readers can follow the credit to the Moon right now, with the day's aspects and the void-of-course windows.

Common questions

Is the Moon widget free?

Yes, for any site, personal or commercial. Keep the credit line under the widget so readers can find where the data comes from.

How accurate is it?

The sign, phase and next sign change are computed live with the Swiss Ephemeris every time the widget loads, the same engine behind the site's Moon page. Times show in each reader's own timezone.

Can I change the size or colors?

The widget fits any width up to 320 pixels and comes in a light cream and a navy theme. Add ?theme=dark to the address for the navy one.

Does it slow my page down?

It loads lazily in its own frame, so it waits until a reader scrolls near it and never blocks your page.
