Goal Setting With the Moon- Last or Third Quarter Moon
This blog series is intended to support you in setting goals in alignment with the 28 day lunar cycle. See the first post in this series if you haven’t already. And stay tuned to the blog as I’ll be making more posts providing more information on how to work with each of the moon’s phases.
Last Quarter Moon
Día 23 - 24
Day 23 - 24
This phase is when harvests are reaped. Think about your accomplishments. Assimilate the new tasks/responsibilities related to your creation.
Capricorn’s influence on the moon will be with us for this third quarter. A perfect environment for taking on and assimilating the responsibilities your new creation entails. Add your new task list to your plan.
Ask yourself:
- Are more results coming that I haven’t anticipated?
- What is keeping me from adopting X habit (that I had previously determined was necessary for success in this gaol)?
- What does my spirit need in order to keep going?
The third/last quarter moon in our example occurred in Capricorn at 4/4/2021 at 6:02am. Moon in Capricorn lends itself to industrious pursuits. It’s the perfect energy to give your project a final push before the 28 day cycle ends.
On 4/5/2021 the moon will move into Aquarius but the moon is still in its last quarter phase. Lighten the schedule but continue to tackle the to-do list.
Be sure to come back to the blog on April 6th, where I’ll share guidance on the last phase of the lunar cycle- the Waning Crescent Moon. Check out the previous post in this series which discusses goal setting with the Waning Gibbous Moon.
Goal Setting With the Moon- Waning Gibbous
This blog series is intended to support you in setting goals in alignment with the 28 day lunar cycle. See the first post in this series if you haven’t already. And stay tuned to the blog as I’ll be making more posts providing more information on how to work with each of the moon’s phases.
Waning Gibbous Moon
Day 18
Day 19 - 20
Day 21 - 22
Day 18, Day 19-20, Day 21-22
Focus on addressing any personal habits that may be limiting your creation. Share your knowledge, communicate with your supporters. Remove (prune) what is complete.
Ask yourself:
- What characteristics would enable me to achieve the highest, most beneficial result?
- Who can guide me in my next steps?
- Is there an opportunity I have yet to take advantage of?
In our example the waning gibbous moon will be in Scorpio. Your arguments will be shrewd and convincing.
The moon will be in Sagittarius on day 19-20 which makes it an ideal time to take action, especially when it comes to errands that require you to leave the house. Saving paperwork for day 22 when the moon enters Capricorn might increase your productivity.
Be sure to come back to the blog on April 4th, where I’ll share guidance on the next moon phase- the Last (Third) Quarter Moon. Check out the previous post in this series which discusses goal setting with the Full Moon.
Goal Setting With the Moon- Full Moon
This blog series is intended to support you in setting goals in alignment with the 28 day lunar cycle. See the first post in this series if you haven’t already. And stay tuned to the blog as I’ll be making more posts providing more information on how to work with each of the moon’s phases.
Transformation, completion and abundance. Let go of everything that doesn’t suit your creation. Gather and analyze data about your progress.
The Full Moon
Day 16 - 17
Day 16 - 17
We are half way to our sign post/goal. A detailed plan should be working or a tangible result should be here.
Ask yourself:
- What do I need to adjust in order to achieve this?
- What are my achievements thus far?
- What can I improve?
- Who needs to be brought on board?
- Who needs to have their access limited?
The full moon will be in Libra on March 28, 2021, bringing an energy of partnership and popularity. Some indecisiveness could be a factor. The full moon illuminates all of our possibilities. A moon in Libra may create the tendency to give equal weight to all of the options. Prioritize and remember your goal.
Be sure to come back to the blog on March 30th, where I’ll share guidance on the next moon phase- the Waning Gibbous Moon. Check out the previous post in this series which discusses goal setting with the Waxing Gibbous Moon.
Goal Setting With the Moon- First Quarter
This blog series is intended to support you in setting goals in alignment with the 28 day lunar cycle. See the first post in this series if you haven’t already. And stay tuned to the blog as I’ll be making more posts providing more information on how to work with each of the moon’s phases.
First Quarter Moon
Day 9 - 10
Day 9 - 10
The first quarter or half moon. Enough time has passed where you can evaluate your creation more intentionally. Convert emotional energy into creative passion. Take action that pushes your ideas forward.
This is around the time that those of us with procrastination tendencies may find some challenges. Use your wishes and plans to remind you of why you have decided to pursue this goal
Ask yourself:
What is the next best step?
What fears need reconciling so that I can move forward confidently?
The first quarter moon in March 2021 is on the 21st, and also falls in the sign of Cancer. When the moon is in this placement, expect intuitive hits related to your goal. Is divination in order?
Early decisions may have to be made. Have confidence about what you know. Don’t fear making these decisions. You will have time to adjust if necessary.
Be sure to come back to the blog on March 23rd, where I’ll share guidance on the next moon phase- Waxing Gibbous Moon. Check out the previous post in this series which discusses goal setting with the Waxing Crescent Moon.
Goal Setting With the Moon - Waxing Crescent
This blog series is intended to support you in setting goals in alignment with the 28 day lunar cycle. See the first post in this series if you haven’t already. And stay tuned to the blog as I’ll be making more posts providing more information on how to work with each of the moon’s phases.
More reflection of the sun’s light is a symbol of expansion. Refining focus and commitment. Your positive thoughts are nurturing (watering) your creation. New ideas and new people.
Waxing Crescent
Day 3 - 8
Day 3 - 8
This next phase begins 2.5 days after the new moon. The moon spends more time in the Waxing Crescent phase because it incrementally makes its way to the quarter moon phase day by day.
This is the planning phase. In the next two and half days it’s time to distill your big ideas into action steps and tasks. All the brainstorming, dreams and wishes from the new moon must now be made in to concrete action steps.
Ask yourself:
- Do I need advice?
- Is more research required?
In our example the waxing crescent moon is in Aries, then Taurus. These signs are perfect for getting things done. Schedule 1 or 2 hard things for the early part of the phase and it will be easier to barrel through.
Be sure to come back to the blog on March 21st, where I’ll share guidance on the next moon phase- First Quarter Moon. Check out the previous post in this series which discusses goal setting on the New Moon.
