You may want to accomplish many of the plans on your daily to-do list early this morning since the Last Quarter Sun-Moon Phase (energizing 18 degrees of Leo and Taurus) clocks in at 11:56AM PDT. Quarter moon cycles are often overlooked by astrological students, but they can sometimes be as potent as New and Full Moons. You want to cut through apparent obstacles on your mental or even spiritual path around the time-period of this Last Quarter Phase. In the hours before, problem-solving and strategy sessions can help you increase the value of your assets and investments as Pallas forms a supportive, 60-degree alliance with Vesta (8:28AM PDT). Nevertheless, once the Last Quarter Sun-Moon connection strikes at 11:56AM PDT, a void lunar uncertainty zone takes hold and lasts all the way until 1:12PM PDT on Friday. With a 25+ hour void-of-course energy-field present, it is important to complete old business with a flourish and to the best of your ability. Helping you in this regard are a flowing trine from Venus to Neptune in water signs (3:35PM PDT) and Moon-Ceres parallel (10:48PM PDT). The Venus-Neptune connection can be a gold mine for lovers seeking deeper ties with the object of their affection. It is also a catalyst for artists and anyone enjoying an active social life. However, the void Moon time-period often contains a fair amount of uncertainty and that can water-down the effectiveness of sky patterns occurring while the Moon is in this kind of compromised position.
