quarter moon crisis

Two weeks ago, during the first quarter moon, someone in my choir showed me their Ukrainian moon app. The days of the quarter moons were circled, linking to long paragraphs of horoscopes.
We’re at another turning point of the lunar cycle, the last quarter moon. I host events in Berlin every full and new moon (one coming up on January 19 for the Capricorn new moon), without ever saying much about the half moons.
Half (or quarter) moons are the halfway points between full and new moon. The first quarter moon happens after the new moon and the last quarter after the full moon.
They characteristically align with an event, either external or internal, where something changes. In screenwriting, this would be a moment where the story “turns”. Something simply has to happen.
This week’s quarter moon is in Virgo. I covered it in my weekly horoscopes for Vice. Everyone seems to be busy, rushing to finish everything before the end of the year.
My (Virgo) brother told me at his job it’s because everyone takes their paid vacation days at the same time. Students are studying for finals. Plus the ambient demonic pressure to shop/consume/panic, which I’m working on ignoring, personally, but still feeling.
Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) are the last signs before the season changes. We’re about to officially begin winter, so we have to make some final adjustments and preparations before the darkest night of the year, the winter solstice, comes.
Everyone I know seems extra busy, and the moon phase aligns. This week there’s one final push. The following week, the dust starts to settle.
Mutable signs (not just describing human personalities here, but spans of time) tend to have a lot going on at once, which can feel like having to be in multiple different places at once. Maybe our lesson will be to take it one at a time. Or maybe you’re a multitasking champion. Up to you, ultimately.
When I look forward to the astrology of the upcoming week, I also reflect on everything that’s happened since the new moon in Sagittarius. This last quarter moon is yet another turning point in the story of Sagittarius season.
Here are my notes:
The week of Sagittarius new moon (21/12):
I started IRL events at MKW in Kreuzberg. A “moon circle”. The turnout was modest.
The week of the Pisces first quarter moon (28/12):
I started IRL consultations. Decided that the payment system needed to change. Quarter moons are about changes.
The week of Gemini full moon (5/12):
German class ended. I named the moon event series "The Living Horoscope", which met with double the number of attendants. Full moons are endings, births, reveals, releases, crescendos.
This coming week, Virgo last quarter moon (12/12):
I have availability for consultations in Berlin on Friday, 16 December. I will be available to begin sessions from 13h30 to 16h30, and from 19h30 to 20h30.
I am only offering consultations in person right now, to keep my work flow simple.
Also, I was on the most recent episode of I Need God in Every Moment of My Life’s new podcast. It’s supposed to come out this Sunday, 11 December. It’s not published at the time of this draft, but I’ll share it on my Telegram channel whenever it is. We discuss Christianity and Astrology, a topic that I simply love to research. I’m sure I say at least one smart thing, and at least one dumb thing, but I hope you get something out of it nonetheless.
Viel Erfolg this week ✩∿ “ you are the future “ ✩∿
