New Moon · Moon in Capricorn · 2% illuminated
The Moon in Capricorn stands opposite your Cancer Sun today, so inner needs and outer demands share the same frame. A useful lens: hold both ends of the rope before pulling on either.

The strongest thread today runs through thinking and conversation, so words chosen slowly land best.
Focus: name the need out loud, kindly.

Planetary positions here are approximate, computed from a simplified ephemeris and rounded to the sign a planet is passing through.
