Wednesday morning we ride into the Last Quarter phase on a tired Moon in Sagittarius.

At the start of this mutable Fire sign, we’re filled with energy and excited about the journey. Now, at the end, we’re tired. Bone tired.
Th Moon moves in to trine Chiron, Eris, and Ceres in Aries. These three asteroids at the end of cardinal Fire point to why we’re tired: personal healing (Chiron), the needs of this troubled world (Eris), and the desire to be fiercely protective of all we love (Ceres).
The Moon squares the Sun in late Pisces, another place of endings, as Pluto is semi-square both. Pluto can definitely feel exhausting.
Mercury remains retrograde and therefore confused (or lost in dreamworlds).
Mars moves to conjunct the North Node, often an aggressive meeting. Now, though, both are in Pisces. So, misguided anger? Mixed signals about a high-tension situation? Aggressive action without clear reasons? A combination, perhaps.
Yet there’s good luck here too, and very good luck at that. This Sag Moon is ruled by Jupiter, who has just turned direct. He rules from his exalted place in Cancer, the Moon’s home, placing these two in mutual reception.
The Last Quarter is a time for getting things done, wrapping up this lunar cycle. Right now, our key tasks are self care and caring for those around us. We’re still processing eclipse season, another stressful time.
In the current timeline, more challenges lie ahead. So, when the Moon and Jupiter offer mutual aid, we follow their lead and take good care.
Check in with yourself and your community. Who needs hugs?
