Phase
Waxing Crescent

Counted from Scorpio, the 12th house is solitude, rest, the unconscious, retreat and what happens behind the scenes. The Moon spends two to three days in each sign, so this is where feelings and attention tend to gather for now.

A question for the day
What are you noticing in quiet moments that you push away when busy?

Calculated in your browser. Your date is not sent anywhere or added to the link.

Every position is computed from the same ephemeris the reading uses, at 12:00 UTC unless a time is given, and all times are UTC: in your time zone the Moon may change sign on a different local date. Solar houses count your Sun sign as the 1st house. A rising sign, which needs a birth time and place, gives the fuller picture. These are traditional themes to reflect on, not predictions.
