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.
- Moon in Virgo (4°11′)
- Midheaven in Aquarius (28°12′)
- Uranus in Gemini (4°27′)
Yods
A Yod forms when two planets in sextile (60° apart) both make quincunx angles (150°) to a third planet or point, creating a triangle. This powerful formation highlights a karmic pivot or life-calling that demands ongoing adjustment
- Neptune in Aries (4°23′)
- Venus in Virgo (8°22′)
- Pluto in Aquarius (4°31′)
Golden Yods
A Golden Yod forms when one planet creates biquintiles (144° aspects) with two other planets that are themselves connected by a quintile (72°), forming a narrow triangle. This pattern is a beneficial configuration that highlight innate strengths and artistic potential.
- Neptune in Aries (4°23′)
- Moon in Virgo (4°11′)
- Pluto in Aquarius (4°31′)
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 New phase, with an illumination of 11.43%. 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 Full Moon is on July 29, 2026 at 10:36 AM EDT and the next New Moon is on August 12, 2026 at 1:37 PM EDT.
The Moon is transiting through Virgo at 4°11'. The Moon in Virgo brings a helpful and thoughtful mood. People may focus on getting organized, taking care of their health, and being useful to others in small but meaningful ways.
The Moon is 371,980.7 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 -10.35. 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 16.09 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.
