What Does the Last Quarter Moon in Libra Reflect?

Last-quarter Moon in Libra: a habit of self-abandonment is ready to be released. The invitation is to reclaim the preferences you gave away.

While the last-quarter Moon moves through Libra, the emotional tone of these days turns toward releasing a habit of self-abandonment. A pattern of keeping others happy at your own cost may be ready to be set down. Letting go here means reclaiming the preferences you quietly gave away to stay liked.

The gift of this moment is reclaimed self. The tension is clinging to approval, fearing that a truer you will be too much. Let yourself take back what you disowned, and let one honest choice made purely for yourself remind you that being liked was never the same as being loved.
