Moon phase on July 8, 1961
The Moon moved from Taurus into Gemini that day (UTC), so the time of day decides which.
Born under a waning crescent moon
In the last days of the cycle, only a thin curve of light remains, visible before dawn. Traditionally this is the balsamic phase, a time to rest, dream and let the old cycle dissolve before the next one begins. People born under it are often described as wise, intuitive and future minded, with a sense of finishing something larger than themselves. If you are living through this phase, it can suit sleep, solitude, meditation and forgiving yourself for anything left undone.
Before bed, dim the lights and list three things you are willing to leave behind in this cycle. Read the list once out loud, then close the notebook and let it rest.
The Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon slows the pace and draws attention to the senses. Good food, soft fabrics, gardens and steady routines feel especially comforting, and many people become less willing to rush. These days suit budgeting, cooking, gardening, building something by hand and finishing practical tasks at a calm pace. Change may feel unwelcome, so it is a better moment to deepen what already works than to overturn it.
