Not Just a Phase: Phases of the Moon and What They Mean for Your Sign

Astrology junkies are aware that moon phases influence your mood and insight, but have you ever considered looking at them in the light of how they affect your astrology horoscopes and visible signs?

New Moon

Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo, and Pisces: be wary that you are on a high in this phase.

Your emotions often outweigh your rationality, which is why it is recommended that you postpone any type of life-altering decision until after this phase to avoid getting off on the wrong foot.

On the other hand, Leo, Libra, Aquarius, and Aries, you will be less destabilized.

The latter means that you are less affected by the influences of this phase, but it still doesn't exempt you from staying on your guard because the energies during this phase are intense.

The waxing moon and waxing gibbous moon

Gemini, Libra, Sagittarius, and Pisces, are the epitome of indecisiveness.

This phase will be a rude awakening if you are hesitant.

In a way, you will be forced to make decisions because your life constantly changes. Hence, you will experience emotional turmoil but stay strong.

On the other hand, for Cancer, Taurus, Virgo, and Leo, you're not as indecisive as those priorly mentioned.

Still, your uprightness and your tendency to get emotionally invested in things will give you a hard time during this phase.

On the other hand, some signs will thrive, such as Aries, Scorpio, Capricorn, or Aquarius, known to be the most driven of the bunch.

So this phase will supplement your determination well, and you will likely get many things done.

The first quarter

Aries, Gemini, Leo, Capricorn, Sagitarrius, and Aquarius, this phase will bring you extra challenges, whether for personal relationships, work, or goal-setting.

All of these signs are expected to work a little harder because people may be disregarding them, or maybe they're even having trouble with maintaining their closest relationships.

All-in-all, the push and pull force brought about by this phase requires you to take the initiative and collect yourself while still keeping an open mind to the people around you.

On the other hand, this intensity could also motivate signs like Taurus, Libra, and Virgo, this time is the perfect time for you to regain control of your own life.

In a way, this phase allows you to be in the mood for goal-setting and organization, which puts you in a productive mood, which in turn helps you achieve your goals better.

Lastly, for Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, you have probably been working your hearts out to the point where you're almost at your breaking point.

Hence, in this time, your priority should be yourself and finding ways to regenerate your energy.

The full moon

For Aries, Capricorn, and Virgo, this phase is your time to shine.

After a grueling time of working hard, you will finally get the credit you deserve.

May it be a solidifying of a long-term relationship through marriage or long-awaited career promotion.

The full moon gives back all your efforts.

For Leo, Aquarius, Gemini, Sagittarius, and Libra, the full moon will shine upon things that seemed unclear to you before.

In this phase, you are likely to experience having a groundbreaking idea, or you can even gain a clearer insight into what will happen in the future.

Lastly, for Taurus, Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, your emotions will be on a high during this phase.

You can either radiate an overflowing source of energy that will make people around you happy, or your hidden emotions could come through unintentionally.

The third quarter

More than half of the signs are known to be very stubborn in the act of letting go.

Virgo, Cancer, Pisces, Taurus, Capricorn, Gemini, and Aquarius will all be at the emotional crossroads.

Whether it's because of the want to be reliable, the refusal for change, or just the emotional attachment, these signs will be drained after this phase because they have to muster up the courage to discard things that may or may not mean anything to them anymore.

For Aries, Leo, Aquarius, Libra, and Sagitarrius, a.k.a. the signs that have no difficulty discarding things that only weigh them down: be wary of them because they might just cut you out of their life indefinitely if they feel like you are of no use anymore.

If they perceive that life gets better without someone or something, you bet that this phase will make them think that now is the right time to cut it off.

The waning moon and the waning gibbous moon

The most self-aware signs will finish this phase like a checklist. For Libra, Scorpio, Aquarius, and Pisces, your emotional strengths will be great at confronting what you've done.

In this phase, you become very willing to work on your flaws, and you approach them with a critical mindset.

On the other hand, Virgo, Aries, Cancer, and Sagitarrius often find it difficult to change with the conflicting personalities.

In this phase, you are willing to change your ways, but some personalities that you possess get in the way.

Personalities like impulsiveness, being too mean to yourself, and just being too moody will make this phase difficult for you.

Lastly, for Gemini, Leo, Capricorn, and Taurus: buckle up because you are in for a rude awakening.

TThis phase will annoy you the most because you hate confronting yourself in the past.

You think that change is constant, so why bother.

So, it is suggested that you temper your judgment, and allow yourself to be introspective into the past and what will happen in the future.
