About the Lunar Conception Method
2. The Details
Let's see how the method works.
Imagine that you can see in the sky both the Moon and the Sun at the same time (like it happens to be in the morning
or in the evening). Point one hand at the Moon and the other hand at the Sun. There will be some angle between your hands, wouldn't it?
The Moon and the Sun move perpetually relative to the background of stars, but the Moon moves approximately twelve times
faster than the Sun, so the angle between them changes all the time. At the New Moon this angle is 0°, at the time of the First
Quarter the Moon is 90° ahead of the Sun, at the Full Moon it is 180° ahead of the Sun, and at the Last Quarter
it is 270° ahead.
If a woman was born at the time of a certain phase, say the First Quarter, then according to the discovery
of Dr. Jonas, each time the same phase will take place in the sky, that will be her moment of unusually high fertility,
her potential Lunar Conception moment (technically, this is the moment of her "lunar phase return").
Most of the people however are born not precisely at the time of a certain phase. Let's take an example - say, a fictional person was born
on the 7th of June 1983 in London, at 9 o'clock in the morning. Using the Lunar Conception Calculator, we can
find out that at the moment of her birth the Moon was in 26 degrees and 6 minutes of Aries, the Sun - in
16 degrees 1 minute of Gemini, and so the Moon was 310 degrees and 5 minutes ahead of the Sun. Every time when
the Moon will be 310° 5' ahead of the Sun, this woman will have her lunar phase return, or her Lunar Conception
moment when she can conseive a child with high probability.
Interestingly, it doesn't matter with which stage in the woman's hormonal cycle this Lunar Conception moment
will coincide. If it will coincide with the ovulation, very well, the probability of conception will be very
high. But even if this moment will coincide with the menstruation, fertility at such time will be very high too.
The gender of the conceived child will depend on the sign of the Zodiac in which the Moon was at the moment
of Lunar Conception. If it was in one of the masculine signs - Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius -
the child will be a boy. If the sign was one of the feminine ones - Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces -
the child will be a girl.
The calculations that are needed to define the Lunar Conception moment use quite complex astronomical
algorithms, this isn't something you can do by hand. But the online Lunar Conception Calculator will do them for you
quickly and easily using high precision algorithms.
