Last Quarter Moon in Libra January 14, 2023 - January 15, 2023
The moon enters its last quarter phase in Libra on January 14, 2023 9:10pm eastern time. The last quarter moon period is a time of pausing, slowing down and releasing. If it’s possible, it would be beneficial to take the time for self-nurturing and self-regulation. We all need periodic rest periods. Give yourself a few minutes and partner with yourself.
When I tuned into the energy of this lunar phase and it’s aspects, the following affirmations came up as helpful for this time:
“I balance longing and affection harmoniously.”
“I know what I need in order to heal.
“I know that my longing is aligned with my purpose.”
I created a grid and shared it as a reel on Instagram in order to assist the collective in integrating these energies as Libra takes us into the waning crescent lunar phase. I used spherical crystals whenever possible to represent lunar energy overall. The following is a list of the crystals this grid contains as well as the energetic purpose they are serving in this formation.
Crystal grid to assist the collective in assimilating the energies occurring during the last quarter moon in Libra.
- Clear quartz: crystal skull and merkaba; I mostly used these a placeholder for crystals that my research points me to but that I don’t own. For instance, I didn’t have a green turquoise even though I had a blue piece. I asked the quartz crystals to bring that unique energy in.
- Sodalite: tumble; serves as a guide for inner travels. Perfect for the contemplation that the last quarter lends itself to.
- Aquamarine: hexagonal; assists in the creating of harmonious surroundings.
- Turquoise: raw piece; helps with the integration of disparate aspects and promotes serenity, peace and vitality.
- Red tiger eye: sphere; assists with mental clarity and supporting the physical body.
- Opalite: palm stone; represents the Libra moon energy.
- Rose quartz: crystal skull, heart and spheres; encourages self love and promotes peace and harmony.
- Amethyst: crystal skull and heart; assists in putting common sense into practice.
- Pyrite: spheres; increase confidence.
The moon will stay in Libra until January 15, 2023, so give yourself the time to assimilate what this past cycle has brought and what you want to look forward to on January’s new moon on the 21st.
