Moon Calendar — September 2020
The Moon's zodiac sign for every day of September 2020, with sign-change times and all four phases — computed from real planetary positions. Times are UTC.
The Moon in September 2020
In September 2020 the Moon changes zodiac sign 13 times and passes through all 12 signs. It starts the month in Pisces on September 1 and ends it in Pisces on September 30. Counting the sign it occupies at noon UTC each day, it spends the most days in Pisces (5 days), Taurus (3 days) and Cancer (3 days).
The main lunar phases this month are: Full Moon on September 2 in Pisces, Last Quarter on September 10 in Gemini, New Moon on September 17 in Virgo and First Quarter on September 24 in Capricorn.
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.
