The second quarter moon in Sagittarius occurs today, and the sun and moon square off. In this case, it’s the Virgo sun and Sagittarius moon. This is the halfway mark between the new moon and the full moon, which means that it’s peak time to start reflecting on what you want to change or adjust in your world. It’s a magical time to make sure that your seasonal new moon intentions are taking flight and progressing. It’s also a time to take stock of what you need to start releasing from your life.

The Sagittarius moon is usually a time to be bold and brave. The caution today is that Neptune, which is retrograde in Pisces, is making us more fearful than ever about waving our hands in the air and letting go. We still want to keep one hand on the wheel as we cautiously move through the day.

Be careful about saying things you don’t mean or putting your foot in your mouth. This is common during this lunar phase, and it can cause a lot of unnecessary conflict with others. Neptune retrograde is adding confusion and heightening emotions, so be careful with your words and actions as you calmly and gently go about your day.

Under the First Quarter phase of this current lunar cycle, we are likely to meet with surprises that need our attention. We may be completely unaware of the impact that we have on our environment and, as such, blindly stumble into unexpected headwinds. There are definitely elements of our heritage and ancestral roots involved in this picture — from sins of the father to legacy entitlement. The rewards we gain or the challenges we face here are likely to be in some way tied to past actions and efforts. There are certainly lessons to be learned and a potential for growth — moving beyond the past — that will bring us to a more stable place.
