Tuesday, DECEMBER 19

The Moon continues in Pisces until 5:47 PM EST today, encouraging the need to connect with our inner world. A First Quarter Moon occurs as the Sun in Sagittarius forms a square with the Moon in Pisces at 1:39 PM EST. A crisis theme surrounds any quarter Moon phase as we feel compelled to take action. Shortly after, we become aware of how our actions affect those close to us, perhaps through trial and error. It can be a time of stress, clashing, and discord, but also high energy, motivation, and growth.

Mercury’s minor square to Uranus points to minor missteps or interruptions. We may need to manage some inconveniences in our communications and transit. There can also be difficulties following a schedule. The Moon heads into Aries at 5:47 PM, and we want to start fresh. We crave self-direction.

The Moon is void from 4:03 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Pluto), until the Moon enters Aries at 5:47 PM EST.
