Could anyone teach me about how to interpret new moons (any moon phases for that matter) in a personalised horoscope.

---

The New Moon on 15th November 2020 (at 23Scorpio18) was conjunct your natal Mars and square your natal Venus.

The New Moon/eclipse on 14th December 2020 (at 23Sag09) was trine your natal Venus.

The New Moon on 13th January 2021 (at 23Capricorn14) was sextile natal Mars.

The New Moon on 11th February 2021 (23Aquarius17) was square your natal Mars and opposite your natal Venus.

The New Moon on 13th March 2021 (at 23Pisces04) was trine natal Mars.

The New Moons of April and May 2021 aspect no natal planets.

The New Moon/eclipse on 10th June 2021 (at 19Gem47) aspects no natal planets.

Can you see the pattern, as the New Moon moves through the eclipse cycle? ... New Moon in natal 9th at Dec 2020 eclipse -> in 10th at Jan 2021 NM -> 11th in Feb -> 12th in March -> 1st in April -> 2nd in May -3rd at June 2021 eclipse.

There has been a complementary cycle of Full Moons, in the signs opposing those of the New Moon cycle ... Gemini on 30th November 2020 -> Cancer on 30th December 2020 -> Leo, Virgo Libra, Scorpio.

Every pair of signs in your personal chart has been "lit-up"/highlighted during that eclipse cycle ... as have natal Venus and Mars by SOME of its New Moons (and Pluto, Mc, Asc + Jupiter by SOME of its Full Moons).

So ... New Moons/conjunction = start of something ... Full Moons/opposition (around 14 days later) = fruition of what was started at the New Moon.

And New Moon/eclipse = start of something which will come to fruition in 6 months time (Full Moon/eclipse).

New Moons begin the "waxing" transits through the first half of the Sun-Moon planet cycle, and Full Moons begin the "waning" transits through the second half of that cycle.

In The Spiral of Life, Joanne Wittenburg and Virginia Meyer wrote the following about this two half-cycles :-

"In the waxing half of the cycle : Action begins at an automatic, subjective level primarily based upon feelings and emotion, gradually developing a conscious control as the phase nears the opposition. At the Full phase, the growing personal power seeks fulfilment in something outside of itself, such as another person or an ideal or purpose."

"In the waning half of the cycle : Action takes place in full awareness of both past and present and of their contrast. Great tension is experienced - as part of you wants to go in one direction, part the other until you feel 'pulled apart'. Action now needs to become deliberate and to have the purpose of finding an ideal within which both parts or activities can be integrated. The meaning of this ideal activity will be gradually released through the waning cycle, in terms of the progressed planets. 'Group power' should replace personal power as your energies are spent in the release of significant meaning to others. If activity has been negative, patterns developed by the Moon will gradually disintegrate. Pressure from the Sun is on the Moon to reshape attitudes."
_________________________________________________________________

Moreover, the following is written about the whole Sun-Moon cycle through the waxing+waning hemispheres :-

"As the distance widens between Sun and Moon, up to the opposition, consciousness of one's relationship to the past, as well as the present, becomes more obvious. This creates conflict between the past (Moon) and the present (Sun). The Sun represents a present pressure on the Moon to break out of conditions of the past shown by its house and sign. The Moon is the function trying to get out of the past and establish something new in relation to the Sun."

"At any given stage of the total cycle, the Moon represents activity. The Sun represents the direction in which the Moon is required to act. In some sense, the Sun represents a directive from the present or future, while the Moon shows by position and aspect something it is dealing with from the past, as far as its relationship with the Sun is concerned. When there is an aspect between the Sun and Moon, the nature of that aspect shows the ease or difficulty in using the particular phase energy available to them. It also shows that the chart owner is meant to emphasise these functions, attitudes and activities in his/her life."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Personally, I believe that the above needs to be fully understood by the chart owner before attempting to interpret the meaning of the specific Sun-Moon phase relationship in his/her natal chart. ... And, that is particularly the case with regard to the New Moon personality - for which The Spiral of Life asserts :-

I do make an effort as an "older individual" (st this point) to release my energy from where/who it does not belong. As in leaving when arguments begin- I wish not to be in them not passive agressive.

I try to aim at flowing upstream. In my self growing I feel better this way. Maybe this is the prog phase my now moon directs me towards.

My Moon is not yet formed, it was cnj tight Sun. The astrology reports I've received always state that I'm creative but the mention of my moon phase is never offered. According to the moon phase calculator it is a new moon At 1% visibility on my dob. Wiccan sites give me info it isn't either full or new.
I suppose I'm passive aggressive then. Which I try not to be but am aware I have been in times of arguing. Not always though. Not like a factory settings I can't face trouble fixing.

Thank you for your insight re My Moon question.

I do not have your chart on my computer files, MM ... so, cannot currently ascertain whether you have a New Moon (in front of the Sun) or a Balsamic Moon (behind the Sun).

New Moon personalities are beginning a new cycle of enlightenment, but Balsamic Moon personalities are at the end of a cycle of enlightenment.

What are the exact sign+degree/mins placements of your natal Sun and natal Moon?

Your natal Moon is 2deg36mins ahead of the Sun, so only 0.7% of the Sun's light was visible at the time of your birth. And, for natal Sun-Moons separated by less than 30 arc degrees The Spiral of Life adds the following to its description of the New Moon personality :-

"The Moon is being forced to operate within the framework of the Sun. This is a subjective activity, because the person is often completely unaware of the shaping effect going on. She is not very objective about herself, and her impulses arise out of unconscious motivations. The closer the orb, the more likely this is to be the case."

So, since your natal conjunction has an orb of only 2deg36mins, the Sun's attempts to (openly/consciously) express itself will be heavily masked by the Moon's (hidden/subconscious) fear of doing so ... resulting in the kind of passive-aggressive interactions with others that you have already described.

Obviously, the solution here is to become conscious of the Moon's subconscious reason(s) for being afraid of what might happen if the Sun is allowed to express itself freely. However, in your case, that will be a difficult thing to do - because the Moon is hiding/refusing-to-allow more than 99% of the Sun's light to "shine".

I struggled with that energy of foolishly picking up in a battle with non-thought  out words. Initially I figured this was my Sagittarius rising. Just blurting, no thought entering first. (this could be a chain link between my rising and Moon/Sun behaviors).

The passive aggressive energy from 90% my lifetime completely fits your a analysis. 
The remaining is due to my efforts this past few years, to try and change my reactions in exchanges especially when they are heated. My passive aggressiveness, I feel was the result of not understanding how to respond. It is a challenge to battle out openly,  to stand the heat for challenges. These luminaries struggle within me - Sun is also weakened by the fall position of Aquarius.
"Do I battle it out further or walk away? " Which led down the middle path.  Passive aggressive reactions. I was brought up to "turn the other cheek" as well and my lower nature fights to stay to wrestle in energies unnecessary for growth. Yes - even those that may have offered benefit to me as well.

Also in tarot The Moon is the card  of secrets .
Deep down I'm compelled to keep these in the dark. (most which I have no idea of)The Sunlight, is as you say
"However, in your case, that will be a difficult thing to do - because the Moon is hiding/refusing-to-allow more than 99% of the Sun's light to "shine".  "

I have lowered my walls (perhaps not enough  - I'm  working on it)  for that openness to recieve constructive criticism.  Yet guarded against attacks too. The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. http://youtu.be/PY0FR2-sYX8

I prefer to seek my quests in "fixing " my inadequacy or malfunctioning persona sides, rather be given them out of the blue. I'm much more tolerant as I'm older so it is at times welcome. However I recall when this wasn't at all an open option to my psyche. I mentioned the "triggered" comment in that other thread because I know personally it happens and I understand the psyche is not the same with any of us. We all had different hurts, experiences tbrough our lives. In my case I just tread between the areas I'm ready to face and place the rest in the wait pile. To take it all in at comfortable pace. - went a little Off topic. sorry.

 I am on LL for self growth, have much further to go than many, every piece of learning connects my mysterious puzzle back to the picture that is "not yet realized".
Your report is very eye opening.  I think my left eye is the Moon. A peculiar share, I nearly lost my left at my 4th year. A NDE which brought much of my "Self protective " and these behaviors.

I'm going to work with Moon-ology cards in lieu of my progressed charts to find some mending in this. I appreciate your insight with my Moon.

Adding- Wow, it finally hit me. My fourteenth year my Gma died and I rebelled into my then BFs arms. My bittersweet years began there. This is now relating with my dreams too.

Will these mimic through recycling Progress placements?

I know my 21st was awful, 28th not so good either. Trying to recall most memorable 7th year event(s). I'll dive down that rabbit hole.

Thank you again.

I do not understand what you mean by "mimic through recycling Progress placements", MM.

Find the dates on which progressed Moon actually made its within-one-degree-orb waxing square; opposition; waning square and return/conjunction to natal Moon. ... It will have then taken around three months for the progressed Moon to move through the degree-before exact, the exact degree and the degree after exact. ... And you are trying to identify and review what events were created during each of those three month periods.

Various transits will of course have happened during each of those three month periods, but you are interested only in those that aspected your progressed Moon to natal Moon aspect at that time. ... Thus, natal Moon will have been activated by the progressed Moon throughout the period AND by planet transits (including those of the Moon.

Astrologically ... what was happening with the Moon when you nearly lost your left eye? ... What was the degree location of the progressed Moon - and when did (or will) it hit that degree again in the current cycle of progressions?

As you say, the progressed-to-natal-Moon/Sun wheel is repeating ... but the transits will be different. (Thus, same progressed message - but delivered in a different way.)

[I ask because, in 4 years, the Progressed Moon will have moved around 48 arc degrees ... and the crescent phase of Sun-Moon begins at 45 arc degrees (since all 8 phases are 45 degrees wide). ... [b]The Spiral of Life summarises the crescent phase as "struggling out of past conditions and dependencies which seem to hold on to you".][/B]
