The time of decision and action.
Half the moon is lit: it’s a tipping point. Symbolically it’s the phase of decisions and obstacles — when the first resistances appear and you choose to push forward anyway.
It’s often a tense phase: you hit the first obstacles, doubts return, and the early momentum meets reality. Nothing’s wrong — it’s the moment to hold your course.
It’s linked to determined action: making a pending decision, getting past an obstacle, or holding firm on what you’ve begun.
A gentle practice: spot THE decision you keep putting off, and make it. Or pick one specific obstacle and take a step around it. Moving forward, even imperfectly, loosens this phase’s tension.
Speaks to those meeting resistance — at work, in a project, or within themselves — who need a nudge to decide.
"The moon commands nothing — it just offers a gentle rhythm to move forward, then rest. 🐑"
