The moment the moon crosses from one zodiac sign into the next. She moves through a sign every two-and-a-half days — each ingress is a shift in the mood of the sky.
Void of course
The stretch after the moon's last major aspect in a sign but before she enters the next. Traditionally a pause — plans made during void-of-course are said to drift. A good window for rest, reflection, or routine.
Waxing Crescent
The light steadies — tentative becomes definite.

Daily moon aspects

These are the exact times today when the Moon makes a major aspect to one of the planets. The Moon moves fast (~12° a day), so aspects usually cluster. Quiet days show none — the crossings fall either side of midnight.
