On January 17th, we have the third quarter waning Moon in Libra. The moon cycle is very sacred to our energies as it rules the: emotions, soul and inner intuition. This is the phase of the moon where in the waning cycle of release it squares ( tense 90 degree aspect) to the sun. This creates a tension and pull of intensity between our feminine side( the Moon) and our masculine side( the Sun). Libra, the 7th zodiac sign, deals with: relationships, balance and harmony. Capricorn, the 10th zodiac sign, deals with: authority, structure and karma.

The third quarter moon in Libra will also square the recent Lunar Eclipse in Cancer that happened on January 10th. This tension is called ” a crisis of action” between the Cardinal signs(Libra and Cancer). Cardinal signs are the first signs at the beginning of each season: Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. They represent: action, initiation, and progress. These guys and gals make shit happen! They demand results and movement! At this time you could feel very overwhelmed and pulled in many different directions all at one time.

There could be a desire to create dynamic change and progress among: Libra( our relationships), Capricorn ( our structures) and Cancer( our home) but we may be in a crisis of how to make them all work. There must be a release of the pressure and a final surrender of what will be and what is to come. Waning moons are about release and purging. It is time to let go and let god. This is a big lesson for all Cardinal signs. They all have this common fighting spirit that must eventually surrender before rising to victory and success.

How are you all feeling right now? This is has been an incredibly intense planetary time! The third quarter moon in Libra is bringing up the crisis of peace among the many duties and responsibilities of our human life. It is here to bring: action and resolution, creative solutions and surrender + release of control.
