Last quarter, 69% litMoon in Sagittarius

The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn that day (UTC), so the time of day decides which.

Born under a last quarter moon

At the last quarter, the Moon again appears half lit, but now the light is fading. Astrologers call this a crisis of consciousness, a moment to question what still serves you and what can go. It suits decluttering, ending commitments that feel hollow and reviewing what this cycle taught you. Those born under a last quarter moon are often described as reformers who see beyond the present and want to change outdated systems. Living through it can feel like a quiet clearing of the decks.

Spend fifteen minutes clearing one small space, such as a drawer, an inbox or a bag. As you work, notice which objects or tasks you feel relieved to release.

The Moon in Sagittarius

With the Moon in Sagittarius, the mood lifts and widens. People often feel optimistic, restless and hungry for adventure, ideas or a change of scenery. These days suit travel, study, philosophical conversations, outdoor activities and big picture planning. Tact can slip as honesty gets blunt, so humour helps. It is a wonderful time to try something unfamiliar, sign up for a class or simply take a longer walk than usual.
