FIRST QUARTER MOON IN CANCER🌓♋️ + THE MAGIC OF MERCURY CONJUNCT JUPITER 2023
On March 28, 2023 at 10:32 PM EST we will move into the 24-hour phase of the First Quarter Moon in Cancer. It’s time to dig in and get clear about we’re we plan to direct all this Aries New Moon passion and action.
Grandiose ideas and ambitions are fantastic, but without a hype man or woman to spread the word, they might never get enough traction. Additionally, this Tuesday, when talkative Mercury and joyous Jupiter get all riled up in passionate Aries, you might find your human megaphone (or become one yourself😂)
On Thursday, cautious Saturn in Pisces slows down impetuous Mars in Cancer. Yet, because they are flowing in tandem in a friendly water trine, they assist you in determining the ideal tempo for all of your relationships. Time is crucial, and if you take your time and pay attention to people's subtle cues, you'll learn when to act.
Later on Thursday, when Venus, the goddess of love, collides with provocative Uranus in Taurus, you might be caught off guard.
First Quarter Moon🌓Lunar Wisdom Formula
This is a First Quarter Moon in the Mutable/Maven sign of Gemini, The Twins♊️. It carries with it the desire to communicate and take simple daily actions towards our New Moon intentions.
First quarter moons represent 50% illumination and the midway point to full light. The energy of this moon phase indicates taking action. During the new moon we gather our thoughts and ideas to set and intention and once we reach for quarter moon it's time to pounce.
First Quarter Moons only happen for 1 day, during the waxing phase of the Lunar cycle, where the moon grows to Full 🌕. This 24 hour period can become a magical game changer in your manifestation practice. It is also a great fixed point to check in from a Stellar Planning perspective and make adjustments according to how you feel (the moon).
Remember Lunar Cycles are 28-29 days in total. During the first 14 days of the waxing phase 🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕 its time to plant the seeds of your intentions and fertilize them with effort. This would be considered the Yang or masculine action-oriented portion of the month.
Take advantage of this phase to bring dreams to life and get serious, especially during this time with the Sun in the sign of dreams and the subconscious.
As you allow yourself to imagine and feel into your desires the magic of the moon will help you to manifest your heart’s desire as we head towards the Full Moon🌕.
What to do this week:
🌙 Feel into your New Moon intentions so you are comfortable with how they will fit into your life
🌙 Map out your action steps for bringing your intentions into your life
🌙 Give yourself some mental space to really notice how you are feeling and what you are thinking. This could be through doing a walking meditation or going into nature and just being.
First Quarter Moon In Cancer🌓♋️
The First Quarter Moon is a significant phase in the lunar cycle, and when it occurs in the zodiac sign of Cancer, it can have a profound impact on our emotional and intuitive selves. Cancer is a water sign that is known for its nurturing and emotional nature, and this energy can be amplified during the first quarter moon phase. This time can be particularly potent for focusing on self-care, nurturing relationships, and setting intentions related to emotional healing and growth.
During the First Quarter Moon in Cancer♋️ , we may find ourselves feeling more sensitive and attuned to our emotions and the emotions of those around us. This heightened emotional awareness can be a double-edged sword, as it can lead to deeper connections and insights, but it can also make us more vulnerable to emotional overwhelm and anxiety. It's important to practice self-care during this time, such as taking time for relaxation, meditation, and connecting with supportive loved ones.
Overall, the First Quarter Moon in Cancer♋️ can be a powerful time for emotional growth, healing, and self-reflection.

Push Through Any Insecurity
Drawing this card suggests you may be allowing self‐doubt to derail you. Chances are that you started off strong – fast out of the gate and full of bravado – but now you’re allowing fears and doubts to cloud your vision. Family issues coming up now need dealing with. Maybe you think you’re not good enough or you’re waiting for something to go wrong. This isn’t the way to get what you want in life! Instead, be kind to yourself and others, work on your insecurities and head towards your goals.
Manifesting Mix
The energy of this card says, ‘I am, and I can!’ but it needs to believe itself. Slow down and allow time for self‐belief to grow.
Manifesting Mindset
Knowing that you’re scared or wracked with doubts is better than not realizing it. Nurture yourself and believe that you’re worthy of your goals.
Tune into your manifesting powers
The Third Eye chakra (Ajna) is located just above the midpoint between your eyebrows and it radiates a gorgeous indigo color. It can help you to attain the clear vision that you’re connected to all life everywhere and that fear is an illusion.
Imagine yourself in a column of indigo or silvery light and hold this card to your Third Eye while saying:
“Energies of the First Quarter Moon in Cancer, thank you for helping me to see that my loved ones and I can achieve anything!”
When to manifest your magic
The best time to work your magic is when the Moon is in Cancer, or on a Monday (The Moon’s Day) or during Moon's hour.
The First Quarter Moon in Cancer takes place when the Sun is in Aries and the Moon is in Cancer. It knows that you don’t have to shout to be powerful.
