Overview

The Moon is sampled 29 ephemeris days after birth; interpolation handles fractional age. This is the worked result for Progressed Moon; it remains conditional and does not turn geometry or timing into a verdict. The comparison method is explicit: Compute the exact derived date, interpolate lunar longitude carefully, declare progressed house and angle policy, and compare exact contacts with the natal chart.

Definition and exact scope

The progressed Moon is the Moon on the day-for-year derived date and moves through the progressed zodiac in an approximately 27–28-year cycle.

Calculation or decision rule

Compute the exact derived date, interpolate lunar longitude carefully, declare progressed house and angle policy, and compare exact contacts with the natal chart. The receipt retains the chosen input record, reference frame, tolerance, and version, then identifies the first step where an independent recalculation diverges.

Worked case and illustrative near miss

birth epoch 1995-06-01T00:00Z; target age 29.0; secondary-progression key. the Moon is sampled 29 ephemeris days after birth; interpolation handles fractional age.

Illustrative near miss; does not qualify: Using the transiting Moon on the 29th birthday as the progressed Moon.

School, model, and context variants

The progressed Moon does not prove a mood, pregnancy, relocation, family event, or monthly deadline.
