The waning gibbous Moon forms a direct opposition with Venus under Cancer and Capricorn, indicating an emotional shift from self-sacrificial compassion to a more thoughtful, pragmatic approach to dealing with others. This lunar phase encourages the release of toxic or problematic behaviors, ideas, and even relationships, a process bolstered by Capricorn’s logical attitude. A harmonious trine between disciplinarian Saturn and the Moon suggests this endeavor won’t be as difficult as it seems. The cosmos points toward placing healthy boundaries not only for the sake of yourself but also for the sake of your relationships with others. Indeed, caring for yourself helps you better take care of others.
