Waning Quarter  Phase

 

The dark, invisible, and mysterious shadow is overcoming the light on the face of the moon in this waning phase. It is a lifetime of crisis, but the crisis is within. This is the life where your soul must endure a revolution of consciousness.  People born under the waning quarter moon are here to reorient themselves to life, to look beneath the structures of life through hours of deep contemplation and reflection. Your soul has already triumphed on another forgotten battlefield and now you've come into this life with a sense of desperation.

The struggle is over and your soul is left wondering what will happen next.  It is time to revise your life, to literally find a new vision.  It's time to let go of your soul's old worn patterns and to forge a new destiny.  However, this lifetime is not about fulfilling or even initiating that destiny.  This phase is about turning away from what has transpired, about questioning your beliefs and values.  Old ways of behavior and unconscious patterns must be overcome so that you can begin to move toward that new journey.  

As it stands there is a discontent brewing within.  The old accomplishments aren't so satisfying as you first strive to repeat them unconsciously. Disillusionment is the key experience of this phase, a literal freeing from illusions.  Life-altering events will force you to redefine your way of belonging in the world.  Your beliefs and values must undergo severe change.  Old crumbling ideologies cannot adorn the horizons of your tomorrow. Others will try desperately to hold you in place, to hold you to what is tried and true.  But you must boldly turn away and stop playing by outdated rules.  You may feel like a spy or traitor in your own homeland seeking something new and different. 

When you gain the courage to come out of hiding, to finally reveal your true self, others will be shocked.  You are here to help decompose and destroy tired ways of living, being, and doing.  But usually there is a shred of truth and experience from the past that you know you must take with you because of its timeless archetypal meaning.  Still, you must refocus your awareness and aim it at new creative potentials and possibilities. You may search your entire life before you finally glimpse the horizon that will manifest them.
