Today's Moon Reading
With the Moon moving through Pisces during a Waxing Gibbous phase, traditional astrology associates today's lunar themes with imagination, empathy, and emotional sensitivity to one's surroundings. This is a waxing Moon, so in astrology that energy is generally read as building and accumulating right now.
In astrology, lunar themes are traditional and symbolic - not scientific predictions.
Understanding the Waxing Gibbous
The Waxing Gibbous occurs as illumination grows past half toward full. In traditional astrology, this phase is often associated with refinement, adjustment, and the effort of following through on what's already in motion.
