Moon Calendar — February 2020

In February 2020 the Moon changes zodiac sign 13 times and passes through all 12 signs. It starts the month in Taurus on February 1 and ends it in Taurus on February 29. Counting the sign it occupies at noon UTC each day, it spends the most days in Taurus (4 days), Gemini (3 days) and Capricorn (3 days).

The main lunar phases this month are: First Quarter on February 2 in Taurus, Full Moon on February 9 in Leo, Last Quarter on February 15 in Scorpio and New Moon on February 23 in Pisces.

For context: the Moon circles the zodiac in about 27.3 days, so it usually stays in one sign for roughly 2 to 2.5 days before moving on. Its phases follow the longer synodic month of about 29.5 days — the time from one new moon to the next — which is why each phase lands on a different date every month. All times here are UTC, so a sign change or phase near midnight may fall on the neighboring date in your time zone.
