🌟 Energetic Theme of the Week

After the highly emotional Cancer Full Moon, we move into the Waning Gibbous phase, the time of refining, processing, and giving thanks. The week opens with the Moon moving out of Cancer and into Leo, illuminating what needs to be honored, not held onto.

This is a time to tend to what’s been revealed, without rushing to fix or pivot. Trust the quiet recalibration that comes after the emotional swell.

🌖 Let the light fall gently. Integration reveals what the climax could not.


🔮 Moon Phase Insights

The Moon moves from Cancer → Leo (Jan 5), then travels through Virgo and Libra, preparing us for the Last Quarter Moon in Libra at the week’s end. This is a graceful descent — a time to tend the garden of your intentions and release what bloomed but doesn't belong long-term.

Waning Gibbous energy supports wisdom, clarity, and quiet progress.
