Last Quarter Moon in Sagittarius🌗

The Moon will hit it’s Last Quarter phase in Sagittarius on Wednesday, 2/23 at 2:32 pm PT. The Quarter Moons don’t receive as much attention as the New and Full Moons, but they should. They highlight the areas in life where we need to be sharpening our tools. They give us profound insight into how we can be who we want to be and reach our intentions. They are typically a time when we can expect some sort of challenge to overcome or perhaps a new type of thinking to occur. Sometimes it can seem difficult on those days, but truthfully, these are the days that make us. If we try to ignore these lessons, than we will also be ignoring the underlying gifts that they are providing us.

And the good news is, there is a way you can pinpoint exactly how this Moon is supporting you through all of this! Keep reading for some personalized insight based on your chart below.

The Sun also moved into Pisces last week, so our egos are probably feeling the need to reflect and relax some. We are now in the final phase of the Astrological year. A time when Mother Earth is beginning to awaken, but much still lays dormant. Spring is almost here. And once she arrives, it’ll be time to use all that fiery Aries energy to begin new projects, do some Spring cleaning and begin the Astrological Season anew. But for now, Pisces rules the day. Which means, rest, reflection, compassion and intuition. Allow yourself to rest during this season. To go into other realms and dream about what the world will look like when she awakens. Collectively, this is what our egos are calling us to do.

Sagittarius, on the other hand, says go! Wander, be free, seek, philosophize. Emotionally, we’ll feel the need to explore. Pisces says close your eyes and dream. And Sagittarius says, open your eyes and wander. This is the challenge of the Quarter Moons. Pisces and Sagittarius are both Mutable Signs, meaning that they both embody change. But they have vastly different ways of getting about it.

Are you ready for change? Not only in Mother Earth’s Seasons, but also in the cycle of life we’ve all been in since 2020. Collectively, we’ve been through the ringer and I think we’re all craving change at this point. But how? What to do next? These are questions that both Pisces and Sagittarius aim to solve. They just have very different ways of going about it. Once we hit the new Moon in Pisces, we may have a much deeper understanding of it. But for now, we are supposed to be faced with the challenge of a Pisces Sun squaring a Sag Moon. There is such beauty in that. Let’s live there right now and see what we can achieve during this time.

So what does this all mean for you? We all have different charts and different lives and so all of this effects us each in different ways. But…there is a pretty simple way that you can gain insight into your own chart and how this Last Quarter Moon will be affecting you.

The trick is in finding out what house this Moon will sit in for you. If you have a copy of your chart, grab it and see what house(s) Sagittarius is in. If you don’t have your chart, go make yourself a free copy at Astro.com. This Last Quarter Moon will be at 5 degrees of Sagittarius, so if you know how to read a chart, see exactly where that is. If you don’t, that’s okay too. Just check it out to see which houses Sag is in and read the descriptions below for each one and check in with your intuition to see which makes more sense to you.
