Patterns
Certain planets are aligning into distinct aspect patterns. These configurations spotlight the key themes and energy flows at play, showing which astrological influences are the most powerful at this moment.
T-Squares
A T-Square signals a source of stress and drive, compelling you toward growth through challenge and conflict resolution. It’s calculated by two planets in direct opposition (180° apart) that each form a square (90°) to a third planet or point.
- Neptune in Aries (3°32′)
- Midheaven in Libra (5°50′)
- Moon in Cancer (2°15′)
Grand Trines
A Grand Trine occurs when three planets form an equilateral triangle in a birth chart (each roughly 120° apart), creating effortless energy flow and natural talents in the element of the involved signs.
- Saturn in Aries (13°23′)
- Jupiter in Leo (14°41′)
- Ascendant in Sagittarius (15°33′)
Kites
A Kite pattern emerges when a fourth planet opposes one point of a Grand Trine while forming sextiles (60° aspects) with the other two points, creating a kite-shaped configuration. This "focused trine" harnesses the natural talents and harmonious flow of the Grand Trine while the opposition provides direction and purpose.
- Neptune in Aries (3°32′)
- Uranus in Gemini (5°41′)
- Midheaven in Libra (5°50′)
- Pluto in Aquarius (3°25′)
Moon
As the Moon moves through different zodiac signs, it guides our daily emotions and gut reactions. The sign it’s in shows how we care for ourselves and others and shapes how we respond to what happens around us.
The Moon is in its Third Quarter phase, with an illumination of 33.84%. The Moon's phase results from how the Earth, Moon, and Sun align. Each phase has its own astrological significance and influences how we experience emotions and energies.
The next New Moon is on September 10, 2026 at 11:27 PM EDT and the next Full Moon is on September 26, 2026 at 12:49 PM EDT.
The Moon is transiting through Cancer at 2°15'. The Moon in Cancer makes people more sensitive and nurturing. It’s a time when emotions run deep and there’s a strong need to feel safe, loved, and close to family or home.
The Moon is 368,711.5 km away from Earth. This distance represents the current separation between the Earth's center and the Moon's center, which varies throughout the lunar orbit as the moon follows an elliptical rather than circular path.
The magnitude (brightness) of the moon is -11.55. This is a measurement of the Moon's visual brightness as seen from Earth, where lower (more negative) numbers represent brighter objects. It varies throughout the lunar cycle, reaching a maximum (around -12.7) during a Full Moon.
The apparent angular radius of the moon is 0.27° (or 16.23 arcminutes) when viewed from the earth. This measurement describes how large the moon looks against the sky, expressed as an angle rather than a physical size.
House Cusps
The house cusp positions show where each of the twelve houses begins, marking their exact zodiac sign and degree. These cusps define the boundaries between houses, with each house governing a specific area of life.
