Today

Today, the Last Quarter Moon in grounded Virgo invites you into deeper introspection, dear Cancer. With Mercury retrograde in Scorpio, communication may feel shadowed, but this is precisely the moment to listen inward rather than outward. The Sun's presence in Scorpio illuminates what lies beneath the surface of your life—trust your instincts about what needs releasing. This is a day for reflection, not rushed action.
