Today's Moon Reading
With the Moon moving through Leo during a Last Quarter phase, traditional astrology associates today's lunar themes with warmth, self-expression, and a desire to be seen. This is a waning Moon, so in astrology that energy is generally read as settling and winding down right now.
In astrology, lunar themes are traditional and symbolic - not scientific predictions.
Understanding the Last Quarter
The Last Quarter occurs roughly three-quarters through the cycle, again near half-illumination. In traditional astrology, this phase is often associated with release, reassessment, and clearing away what no longer serves.
