Well I was going to make my move, but then I remembered that the Sun is in Leo and the first quarter moon must therefore be in Scorpio (at 2Sco). Venus and Pluto are retrograde and Mars in Virgo says hold on a minute! Christopher, it happens to the best of us and you're right up there. Get well soon.
That was the most original take on the Moon phases I’ve ever heard. Very relatable! Also, thanks for making me feel better- just knowing I’m not alone in having a summer cold.❤

After watching this video, I literally just clapped for the “bam” quality of insight at the end of this transmission. I feel this deeply (Sun Scop 4 degrees), being on the precipice of something So New (natal Moon in Scorp a New Moon Phase), especially after this New Moon in Cancer portal. It’s as if A lobster HAD to leave it’s old shell to grow, and this phase approaching is heralding the movement towards the NEW shell. It wants and needs to BE safe and secure in it’s new home (or body). So we are in transition from the Old Shell to the NEW…And it can be scary! …And Exciting😃… to travel or move towards something so un-familiar, and yet, so necessary for Soul Growth. Deep into the Unknown We All Must Go to Grow!…🦞 I always feel so inspired after listening to your videos Christopher🌹😊. I love your heart-centered perspective and wonderful story telling. 💐 I feel more embodied with the information you share, especially when taking the time to contemplate after your share, or like today, pulling astrology-tarot cards while your were speaking to get even FURTHER insights to the wisdom you continue transmit.

Wow, Christopher, this has helped me and I think I need to watch it a few more times because I was taught that I was born during a 1st quarter Moon. I'm a Gemini Sun 26* and Libra Moon 7*, which is 100 degrees and I was taught by degree 90-134 degrees is considered 1st Q Moon. However, what they said about it was very different from you and I was scratching my head because they described it as Driven, ambitious, self Motivated and high energy to name a few, all of which I don't resonate with (my Sun is in the 8th and I'm Scorpio Rising). UGH. So thank you for the different perspective. Also, I had to laugh about your analogy about the Yoke. I was JUST telling someone that my Mom used to say that marriage was like being in a yoke or double yoke...in order for it to work you had to match your partners pace. I've been blessed with a man whom I've known since 1979 and married to for almost 33 years! Sorry for the ramble (c'mon, I'm a Gemini, LOL!) LOVE you and thanks again!

Yep. That was my TOTAL misread. I was thinking of the Moon/South node conjunction at 29 degrees Libra square Pluto at 29 Capricorn and that somehow turned into a First Quarter Moon. It reminds me of that old story about the Astrologer who fell down into a well because he was so absorbed in looking at the Stars that he wasn't looking at where he was going. My apologies @meheradennison5415 and I hope that this clarifies the situation. 😊
He FINALLY starts talking about the First Quarter moon at the 23 minute mark. Jeez, talk about a misleading title.

😮 Wowzers. If I'm looking at this right, this 1st Q Moon in Libra activates a cardinal grand cross that forms a sextile to my native Venus retrograde in Leo. I have a balsamic Leo Moon at zero degree in the same sign as my native retrograde Venus at the 29th degree. This cardinal grand cross consists of Saturn at the 28th degree of Cancer in an out-of-sign conjunction with my Moon, if that's a thing; and then we have Uranus at the 29th degree of Libra in an out-of-sign conjunction with my MC in Scorpio, we have Chiron at the 27th degree of Aires conjunction retrograde Jupiter and last but not least of all is transiting retrograde Pluto in Capricorn (my 1st House...Capricorn rising)...apparently trying way too hard lol.

if the sun is now in Leo is there a reason to link this moon back to cancer and the square aspect? is this a sort of elongated aspect or using a 3degree Orb? I personally have Mars at 29 cancer (1st House) the sun conj n. mars a couple days ago, so perhaps this 1st quarter moon is pinging that moment/replay/deja vu. tbh i have a lot more personal aspect to this moon so i feel like Christopher made this video for me to notice it lol “where do things really begin and end?” we have this cycle every month, 12 times a year, it can be puzzling to link aspects back to past transits but astrologers are doing it all the time. its a beautiful web, thank you.

I have the same question? Why is the 29 degrees the quarter when the new moon was near 25 and the sun will reach three degrees tomorrow (on the 25th) ? Are we just paying attention to the proximity to the Aries eclipse square this month, with the moon square to Pluto tomorrow? The square in the sky tomorrow will happen at 2’43 Scorpio (activating a different eclipse…maybe a preview of the Oct 26, 2024 eclipse at 5’09 Taurus?). I didn’t follow the logic, as the moon was in Virgo this moon when the cancer sun was at 29 degrees….
