Waxing Gibbous Moon in Scorpio Final Aspect: Libra Moon square Sun in Cancer Date: July 5, 2025 Theme: Refine, Adjust, Prepare
Moon Phase & Sign
The Waxing Gibbous Moon is a time of fine-tuning. In Scorpio, this energy turns inward—asking us to confront what’s true beneath the surface. This isn’t a phase for hiding from discomfort; it’s one for transforming it.
Scorpio’s fixed water nature brings emotional depth, loyalty, and resilience. The energy intensifies now, urging inner alignment as we inch closer to the Full Moon.
Moon’s Final Aspect Before entering Scorpio: Libra Moon square Sun in Cancer
Before transitioning into Sagittarius, the Moon in Libra forms a square to the Sun in Cancer. This final aspect marks a turning point: the friction between emotional safety (Cancer) and relational harmony (Libra) urges honest recalibration.
You may feel torn between inner needs and external balance—this tension is the gift. It sharpens awareness and invites authentic preparation.
Mythic Insight:
This aspect echoes The Lovers and Justice Tarot archetypes—symbolizing soul choices that must be weighed with truth, not avoidance. Scorpio provides the emotional x-ray. Libra weighs the heart’s verdict.
