Leo, today's the exact Last Quarter Moon, which is basically the sky's version of a Sunday scaries reset button, except it's Thursday and you don't get to sleep in. This phase is all about releasing whatever you've been dragging around: an old habit, a project that's run its course, a grudge that's not even fun anymore. It's still sitting in your career zone, so the thing worth releasing today is probably a work habit that's overstayed its welcome. ๐งน
Venus is at 29 degrees Virgo today, which is about as close to the exit as a planet gets. Tomorrow it moves into Libra and your chat-and-charm zone, so today is your last full day of that practical, money-smart Venus energy. If you've been meaning to have a grounded money conversation, tonight's the window. Tomorrow the vibe gets talkier, less about spreadsheets. ๐ธ
Mercury's still backstage in Cancer, and honestly the whole vibe this week has been less 'do the thing' and more 'get ready to do the thing.' That's annoying if you're an act-now Leo, which, let's be honest, you usually are. But clearing the desk properly now means when the reset comes later this month, you're doing it with a clean slate instead of fifteen browser tabs open. ๐๏ธ
Last Quarter energy is good for letting go of a dynamic that's stopped serving you, even a small one, like always being the one who texts first. Coupled Leos: a quiet, honest conversation lands better than a big display today. Single Leos: releasing an old 'type' that hasn't been working might open up more than you'd expect. ๐
The Moon's still in your career zone but in release mode now, so today is less about pushing forward and more about clearing out what's dragging: an outdated process, a habit of overcommitting, a meeting that could've been an email. Saturn retrograde agrees: tidy up before you build. ๐ผ
Last full day of Venus in your money zone, and it's asking a very specific question: what have you been spending on out of habit rather than actual want? Last Quarter Moon energy is great for canceling the thing, closing the tab, releasing the subscription you forgot existed. ๐ฐ
Moon illumination is down to 45 percent and the energy of the day is about releasing, more than pushing. If you've been running on fumes this week, today gives you permission to slow down instead of grinding through it. Your body will thank you tomorrow. ๐ฟ
Today's move: make an actual list of what you're releasing, out loud or on paper, it counts either way. Last Quarter Moon in your career zone wants you to let go of one work habit that's been quietly draining you. Do it today, because tomorrow the energy shifts and gets busier. ๐
Friday, Venus leaves your money zone and enters Libra, landing in your communication zone of charm. The Moon moves into Gemini and your friends zone too, so it's a social, talkative Friday. Come back tomorrow for the full reading.
Today marks the exact Last Quarter Moon, still sitting in Leo's career zone of reputation, which makes it a strong day for releasing outdated work habits rather than starting new ones. Venus is at 29 degrees Virgo, its final full day in your money zone before moving into Libra tomorrow. Mercury remains in Cancer behind the scenes, and Saturn stays retrograde in your travel and big-plans zone.
The Last Quarter Moon is a release phase, the point in the lunar cycle where the sky nudges you to let go of whatever's outlived its usefulness before the New Moon reset. For Leo, it's landing in your career zone, so the thing worth releasing today is likely a work pattern, an old commitment, or a habit that's quietly costing you energy.
A planet at 29 degrees is at the very last point of a sign before it moves on. Venus at 29 degrees Virgo means it's in its final hours in Leo's money zone, where it's been supporting grounded, practical decisions about cash and self-worth. Tomorrow it shifts into Libra and a much chattier zone, so today is the last call for that particular financial clarity.
The power window today is roughly 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. The lucky color is slate amber, and the lucky numbers are 6, 20, and 29.
