The awakened Aries sun squares the perceptive moon in Cancer. The moon rules Cancer, so she is “at home” here.

The waxing first quarter is when we decide what to carry forward from the new lunar cycle. Quarter phases help clarify our plans.

At this station, we let the heart guide. This phase is about fusing action (Aries) with intuition (Cancer). Seek wise emotional council and balance impulsive Aries with tender Cancer. Before acting, run your plans by the heart. Sit with discomfort and ask yourself difficult questions. Life feels rushed and uncertain. Hearts are heavy with feelings. Listen. Observe closely to see whether your actions can be executed according to your intentions.

When out intuition tugs on our consciousness in a powerful way, we can be too distracted to work or do anything at all. The heart demands our attention. So does our mental health. But when we feel clean and clear, ready to commit, we can flow in harmony.

Stress and awkwardness in communication give way to tenderness and understanding. Seek counsel from wise womxn in your life. Stand tall and believe in yourself. Break down to break through. See how resilient the heart can be.

This moon phase also lightly squares Chiron in Aries as well as Jupiter in Aries. Batten the hatches, lash yourself to the mast, keep expectations and realistic, and then prepare to be pleasantly surprised by how cathartic-not-bad it actually is <3
