We’re moving toward the sextile between Sun and Moon that forms within the Last Quarter phase.
As we work through the challenges and opportunities presented by the Last Quarter square, we find a moment of insight or understanding at the sextile.
This is a Virgo Moon, cautious, aware of all the implications of this waning cycle. Right now, we share an acute awareness of change, and not all the losses are unwelcome.
Today we understand the principle of all life that some things must die so new ones can be born. This is sometimes exactly what is needed.
The Scorpio Sun has an eye on the depths and is wary. Big forces are moving. Much is in play.
Pluto, modern ruler of Scorpio, will soon welcome Jupiter for their next meeting in this tumultuous time. Be alert for transfers of power, for this is what these two together often signify.
Mars and Venus have completed their opposition but we still might be reeling from that impact, or feeling tender as we adjust to a new relational landscape.
At the moment of this sextile, we find Mercury in the last minute of the last degree of Libra, intensely focused on balance, harmony, and beauty, yet poised to join the Sun in Scorpio’s abyss.
What insight is offered? The Virgo Moon will want us to be prepared for the unknowns ahead of us. Not to hold back, fearful, from the work that must be done. We will take this time to review what we’ve learned and where we want to go.
Then we’ll take the first small steps to get there.
