Full disclosure, gang - I didn't realize until post-production that I had my dates screwed up for the Last Quarter Moon in Libra, do disregard what I say on this episode. I've double-checked and confirmed that it will happen on Wednesday, January 3, 2024. Sorry for the confusion!

The challenging energy of the Last Quarter Moon is created by the number of degrees that separates the Sun and the Moon, which are 90 degrees apart during this phase. In astrological terms, this is called a 'square' and is considered to have a challenging or tense energy.

As they clash, emotional energy becomes tense and feels a bit like a tug-of-war between the energy of the two zodiac signs that are involved; the Sun shines a spotlight on what your ego wants while the Moon attempts to fulfill your emotional wants and needs.

What's covered In this episode:

• The energy of the Last Quarter Moon phase
• Characteristics of Libra and Capricorn
• The overall theme
• My suggestions for working with this phase, including crystals and journal prompts

Journal Prompts for the Libra Last Quarter Moon

Because it's an important exercise but difficult to capture on the podcast, here are the journal prompts for working with the Moon this week:

1. Where have I taken on too much in life? If you feel that these additional responsibilities are distracting you from what your heart is really pulling you to be doing, explore the steps you can take to reduce your load.
2. Have I avoided sharing my feelings and fallen into 'people-pleasing'? What's the impact on my life as a result? If you're allowing someone else to lead your life, it's time to understand how your life might be different if you express how you really feel and then work out the steps to take back your power.
3. What am I thankful for? If you're following my journey, you know by now that gratitude is a part of my journaling process with all 8 Moon phases. Write out 5 – 10 things that you are thankful for. You can list people, places, feelings, or anything else that has positively impacted your life.
