Saturday, AUGUST 16

Early today, the Last Quarter Moon occurs as the Sun in Leo forms a square with the Moon in Taurus at 1:13 AM EDT. This phase signals a crisis of consciousness, a time when we’re ready to discern what works for us and what doesn’t. It’s not the best time to initiate a major project, but it’s an excellent time to tidy up details and tie up loose ends. We might ponder recent revelations, their significance to us, and how to act on them.

The Moon continues its transit of Taurus until 12:01 PM EDT, when it moves into Gemini. The Gemini Moon harmonizes with multiple bodies and aligns with Uranus, stirring our curiosity and communicative nature. It’s a perfect time to explore new topics and tackle a variety of tasks. We’re also well-positioned to take the initiative and pursue a sense of freedom in our thoughts and actions today.

The Moon is void from 1:13 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to the Sun), until the Moon enters Gemini at 12:01 PM EDT.
