Last Quarter Moon

Nov 3rd – “Last Quarter Moon”

Today what’s called the “Last Quarter Moon” comes together when a tense square between the Sun and the Moon occurs. This energy is tense and can cause a crisis around what we suddenly have learned or understand.

We have been under the light of last week’s Full Moon, and this symbolizes our awareness of something. The Full Moon’s energy has brought out the truth, or what’s been hidden or secret, which can also lead to random Ah-Ha moments. As this knowledge washes over us, we need to decide what we’re going to do next. So start thinking about what’s working and what’s not in your life, and prepare for next week’s New Moon, when a new energy begins once again.

This is a transitional time, and we have something more to do before the next New Moon cycle occurs. More often then not the lessons involved are around letting go. Letting go of people who are unhealthy for us, places or things we don’t need or use, dreams that just aren’t going to happen right now, or certain attitudes or behaviors, juat whatever is holding us back.

It’s not a good time to start any big projects, because of the decreasing light of the New Moon (or Dark Moon) coming in now, we’re in the shift, this energy symbolizes a descent into the unconscious. There’s something we either don’t know or haven’t been made aware of yet. It’s a good time to work on finishing up any details that you didn’t get too during the last New Moon.
