May 28, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for May 29th, 2025 is the Waxing Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 2.53 days old and 7.57% illuminated with a tilt of 129.254°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 368,638.33 km and the moon sign is Cancer.

The Moon phase for May 29th, 2025 is a Waxing Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon started to become visible again after the New Moon.

In this part of the moon cycle, the Moon is moving away from the Sun and is becoming more and more illuminated by sunlight. In this phase, the moon will go from 0.1% to 49.9% illuminated before reaching the First Quarter phase.

In the Waxing Crescent phase the moon rises before noon in the east, transits the meridian before sunset, before setting in the west before midnight.

The Waxing Crescent phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. The moon is close to the Sun in the sky and the right edge will become brighter as it approaches 50% illumination and the First Quarter phase.

Fun fact: although only a small part of the Moon is illuminated in the Waxing Crescent phase, you can still sometimes see the rest of moon as faintly visible. This is known as “earthshine” or Da Vinci glow and is a result of sunlight being reflected off the Earth and back to the Moon.

Phase Details

Phase: Waxing Crescent

Moon age: 2.53 days

Moon illumination: 7.57%

Moon tilt: 129.254°

Moon angle: 0.54

The moon is close to the sun in the sky and mostly dark except for the right edge of the moon which becomes brighter as the days get closer to the next phase which is a First Quarter with a 50% illumination.

Today’s Waxing Crescent Phase

The Waxing Crescent on May 29 has an illumination of 9%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On May 29 the Moon is 2.92 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon.

Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today

As I was looking for a thought for today I saw this and it rang true with the week I am having. Big Dwag tells me to just calm down when I’m so stressed out I want to throw or punch something. I do try with deep breathing attempting to go into a meditative state for a bit. Sometimes it works and other times my mind says no way. Because I stress so much at times it does a bad number on my fibromyalgia. So if anyone has other suggestions of what I could do either at home or in the car I did apricate your wisdom. I can calm down faster at home as I’ll go outside to work on the yard or take a walk or play fetch with my silly but very loveable Crystal. BTW Crystal has reached the age where she can now be registered as my ESA companion!!! We are also in training for her to help me not fall when my balance is off.

If you want to see information on any tradition of witchcraft, herbs, flowers, a Goddess or a God, or anything pertaining to any tradition of witchcraft, please put it in the comment section or email Lady Carla Beltane at ladybeltane@witchesofthecraft.com. I will try to find some information to post about it.

May your and your family’s lives be filled with love, happiness, laughter, joy, and positive things!

Blessed be

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 8:30 AM to 2 PM EDT today (7:30 AM to 11 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Gemini into Cancer.

The Stars Rate Your Day

5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

** When dealing with parents and family members today, it’s best to go along to get along, because negative feelings and confusion will be unavoidable. Don’t fight this temporary influence. Instead, be smart and go with the flow because tomorrow, you’re back in the game!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

*** You might fall into worry mode today. Others will spend time daydreaming or being lost in a fantasy world. Whatever the case, this is a low-energy day subject to confusion and misinterpretations. Go slowly. Don’t push the river. Double check information regarding financial transactions. Be smart.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

** Be cautious because today the Moon is in your Money House and it’s at odds with fuzzy Neptune, which can be a deceptive and confusing influence. Furthermore, the Moon is also at odds with Saturn, which means someone older might put the kibosh on your plans. Tread carefully.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

*** Today the Moon is in your sign, which heightens your emotions. However, it also slightly elevates your good luck. (We like!) Nevertheless, this is a poor day for important negotiations with bosses, parents, teachers and the police. Postpone these discussions for another day, if possible.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

*** You will feel two contradictory influences today: In one way, you want to be private and low-key. You’re happy to work alone or behind the scenes. Nevertheless, Mars in your sign makes you proactive and confident! Think twice before you jump on anyone’s bandwagon. Get your facts.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

*** You continue to make a fabulous impression on everyone because the Sun is at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. (This happens only once a year for four weeks – make the most of it!) Double check dealings with friends and groups, especially about fundraising and costs.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

** Today you’re high viz., which means people notice you. (In fact, some people know personal details about your private life.) Factoid. Keep in mind that today things look worse than they are. You might have trouble with relationships. Separations might occur. Go gently.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

** Think twice before you agree with someone else’s ideas, especially if these ideas are political or religious, because you could be misinformed today. Someone might deceive you intentionally or by accident. Travel plans might also be confusing. Double check everything! Be in the know.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

** Today the Moon is in your Money House, at odds with both Saturn and Neptune. Not good. This can create internal negativism or a fleeting depression. It can also promote delusion and a dreamy state. Therefore, in discussions about funding for kids, the arts, sports, or a vacation – be careful.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

** Relations with partners and close friends are challenging today. You might feel unloved or cut off from someone. You might have to say goodbye to someone. You might also feel confused or doubtful. Nevertheless, work hard and enjoy entertaining at home.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

*** Accept the fact that relations with others are a bit confusing, and even awkward today. Strangely, this influence is at play, even though you feel lighthearted and sociable. (Oh yes – you’re keen to explore the arts, fun outings, playful activities with kids and romance.) Tough call.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

*** Family discussions are important today. You might explore real-estate opportunities, or pursue home repairs. Nevertheless, romance is subject to confusion today; and also, depression. You might feel misunderstood or unappreciated. Whatever the case – this is fleeting. Relax.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Things seem to go on an acceleration path at work and you won’t really have time to breath. But why this is not a bad thing you will probably discover yourself.

The more you are challenged, the more occasions you have to realize how able you are and the more confidence you build. Once the rush period is done, you will want it back.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You are expecting to be flattered and for everyone to help you but perhaps reality is a bit harsher than that. You have your friends who you can count on but even their patience has a limit.

If you don’t give anything of value back, then don’t expect to get anything in return. Any pretense will raise some questions of loyalty with your partner.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Some natives may be looking at changing their work place or perhaps are just flirting with the idea of doing something drastic.

In any case, the more observant and exposed you are to what is happening in the environment you activate in, the more opportunities will seem to seep in. Also, seem to benefit from a lot of energy.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is going to be one of those great days at work when everything seems to be going according to plan and where you motivate yourself into doing even more.

A lot of cooperation as well but be prepared to pay the price for that later on. No one is nice to you without expecting some benefits of their own and you will have to deliver.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

It seems that this is going to be one of those busy days in which you need to constantly remind yourself that you got that and everything will be all right.

It is not a crisis situation so there is no need to panic. In order to keep the stress levels at a minimum you need to delineate what needs to be done and what can wait a bit longer.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

The current disposition seems to focus more on remembering the past rather than the future and you seem to be quite nostalgic.

But you can play this at your own advantage and learn something from past mistakes and remember episodes you didn’t have time to reflect upon. Just maintain a healthy balance between happy and frustrating memories.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Don’t matter how you put it, this is not going to be an easy working day because your tension is contagious and it returns to you, even if you don’t realize this is happening.

You might also not be aware of some things that are happening at home behind you back, but this might carry the meaning of something in the area of a surprise or such.

You can also read this special Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are not the best at a game you somehow invented and this is quite stressful and perhaps you are right to be angry.

For some natives this might come in the shape of a generational conflict and is happening exactly due to evolution. Other natives might deal with some colleagues of them who are just one step ahead.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A lot of troubles on your list early on this Wednesday but you need not lose your calm. By the looks of it, you can take your time and approach each task patiently.

The more you stress and try to manipulate things, the harder it is going to be. There is room for improvement, even if you don’t see it yet but you need to focus on the present.

You can also read this special Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You are letting yourself influenced by your family a tad too much and you will soon realize it but it will probably be too late as you will already have promised some help or similar.

You are independent and should continue to be so. This is a matter of learning how much you can give and what you need to keep for yourself.

You can also read this special Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Some challenges at work will stress you more than usual, perhaps because this time some of the colleagues you care for are involved.

Now don’t imagine there are some trenches created out there because it is not the case. Everyone is minding their own interest and no one is busy trying to undermine you, no matter what you imagine.

You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You need to embrace a positive attitude and then you will see them most challenges will go smoothly. This is actually a soft Wednesday and you might even find yourself some free time if you get organized.

You visibly need some time spend alone and it all depends on you how fast you can get that to happen and under what circumstances.
