Periodical Lunation [Astro*Index]

An astrological chart computed for the moment when the Transiting Moon's phase (Moon-Sun angle) is exactly the same as that found in the Natal Chart. It is often employed for monthly forecasts in a manner similar to the use of the Lunar Return (for monthly forecasts), or the Solar Return (for annual forecasts).

Periodical Lunation [DeVore]

A Figure cast for the Moon's synodic period, when it returns to the exact degree held at birth. It is often employed for monthly forecasts in a manner similar to the Solar Revolution (q.v.) for annual forecasts. A true Figure for the Moon's periodical return is difficult to construct, because of the Moon's acceleration from hour to hour.
