In the morning, the last quarter moon in Cancer invites us to reflect upon events that took place during the September 29 Aries full moon. At that time, we were encouraged to push ourselves out of our comfort zones and adopt a fearless mindset. However, today, we’re inclined to run back to the safety of familiar faces, places, and beliefs! Risk-taking seems like a threat. We’d rather appease others than be provocative. Making concessions can be healthy, as long as we’re not compromising to avoid a problem. Escapism will only work for so long! While we might now experience a brief reprieve from a difficult issue, delaying the confrontation dooms us to encounter it again at a later date.
After sun-up, the moon sextiles Jupiter in Taurus, offering abundance. Take stock of what you are thankful for. Today is about celebrating the simple, yet profound blessings in life: food on the table, shelter overhead, the presence of the people we love. Even if we don’t have “it all,” acknowledging what we do have and refusing to take it for granted makes us a magnet for greater cosmic fortune.
