The Lunar Standstill

The Lunar Standstill is a sacred pause in the Moon’s motion — a rare 18.6-year phenomenon when the Moon reaches its maximum declination and appears to halt in its path. In this recorded webinar (video + presentation), you’ll explore the astronomical reality behind the standstill and its astrological meaning, tracing how ancient astrologers used this cycle to read emotional tides, societal shifts, and natural patterns, even building monuments aligned to the Moon’s extreme rise and set points.

You’ll learn how this moment of celestial stillness can mirror stillness and revelation within you: a potent window for emotional healing, self-reflection, therapy-minded inner work, and spiritual recalibration. We’ll also look at the collective signature of past standstills — including the 2006 wave of holistic health and wider economic and cultural transformations — and what the 2025 standstill may emphasise: heightened sensitivity, deeper purpose-seeking, and new beginnings seeded through silence and pause.
