September 27- October 3, 2021
Things might be feeling pretty wild right now as there is a grand air trine of planets starring the Moon in Gemini, the Sun and Mars in Libra and Saturn retrograde in Aquarius. This is a positive configuration but could feel intense too! Another word of warning- Mercury goes retrograde today for the next three weeks. Back up your computers, be mindful of technology and transport and be careful in your communication at this time!
Turning to the Moon, this week kicks off with the Waning Gibbous Moon in the sign of chatty Gemini. On Wednesday the Moon will be in her home sign Cancer in the Third Quarter phase. At that phase of the lunar cycle that I feel a noticeable shift in my energy levels (to that of realllllly going slow!) and it’s also here that frustrations and un-easy feelings can arise.
I can’t believe that we will be on October this week- where did September fly by?! We are also now fully into Libra Season, an air sign that is all about peace, harmony and balance and gives us a chance to analyse our relationships in particular. It can also be the season where we might feel indecisive and more diplomatic than usual.
In this Waning Moon week, it is good to focus on reflecting, restoring and preparing for the New Moon. The Libra New Moon will be on the October 6th, and brings it a fresh new start and the chance to set or revisit your intentions and goals. How great it is that we have this opportunity every month!
I will be running a New Moon circle on October 5th so that we can set powerful New Moon intentions together. If you would like to be part of it, come join us in the Moon Membership and also get access to the PDF playbook which includes deeper astro info about the New Moon, journaling prompts, rituals, recipes and self-care practices.
Now, let’s get started with this week’s report!
Lunar Energy and Mood Report for the Week Commencing September 27, 2021
The Moon continues in the waning phase all of this week, starting off on Monday with the Waning Gibbous Moon, then the Third Quarter Moon on Wednesday and then moving into the Waning Crescent phase to close out the week.
Keywords for this week include rest, restore, reflect, and release. Focus on your physical self-care, nourishing your nervous system and to rest as much as necessary to nurture your mind and body.
You may want to reflect and release any negative energy, patterns or thoughts as well as tie-up any loose ends that you still have so that you can move into the next lunar cycle with a confident and positive mindset.
Moon Phase Energy
This week the Moon will be Waning Gibbous until Wednesday. This is a phase characterised by receding energy levels. This provides the opportunity to rest and reflect and to also practice gratitude for all that you have brought into your life so far in this lunar cycle that began on the last New Moon. Celebrate all your wins!
What to do for the Waning Gibbous phase
🌖 Practice gratitude with a gratitude list
🌖 Complete any tasks that you still haven’t completed, and let go of anything that is no longer aligned or working for you
🌖 Clear your schedule to give yourself space to rest
🌖 Get plenty of rest- go to bed early and take an afternoon nap if you feel called
Waning Gibbous Theme: Gratitude
Affirmation: I see more clearly and express gratitude for all the new insights I have
Reflection questions: What new insights do I have from this lunar cycle? What has been enjoyable in this lunar cycle? What can I do better to nourish myself and practice self-care?
On Wednesday is the Third Quarter Moon, a sometimes challenging phase that can have us feeling reduced energy levels which calls for having clear boundaries in place around your time. Analyse what is going well and release the thoughts, energies and patterns that aren’t serving you anymore.
What to do for the Third Quarter phase
🌗 Get organised and re-focus on the things that are important to complete ad tie up lose ends
🌗 Get plenty of rest- go to bed early and take an afternoon nap if you feel called
🌗 Analyse what’s going well and release/let go of what’s no longer serving
Third Quarter Theme: Release
Affirmation: I let go of negative energy and habits and surrender my intentions to the universe
Reflection questions: What have a learned this lunar cycle? How can I use what I have leaned in moving towards my vision? What habits can I work on improving in the next lunar cycle?
From Thursday to Sunday, the Moon will be in its Waning Crescent phase. This is when you will likely notice a shift in your energy levels as they continue to recede and you could even feel quite drained. This is perfectly ok, and honour this by being gentle with yourself. Gift yourself whatever you need- whether that’s a little nap or time to yourself- make whatever your body is craving a priority. This time is all about resting, restoring and preparing for the fresh start that’s on its way.
What to do for the Waning Crescent phase
🌘 Finalise all projects and don’t start in anything new
🌘 Focus on nourishing self-care practices that help you to rest and relax
🌘 Spend some time alone with your journal to reflect on the ups and downs of the past lunar cycle
🌘 Feel all your feelings freely and be gentle with yourself, practicing self-compassion
Waning Crescent Theme: Initiate
Affirmation: I feel into my intentions with strength and confidence
Reflection questions: What loose ends can I finalise to prepare for the next lunar cycle? What can I do to raise my overall energy and focus? How can I clear any negative energies and bring a positive outlook to the next lunar cycle?
Moon Sign Moods
Sunday September 26 to Tuesday September 28th
The Waning Moon is in the sign of sociable Gemini. When the Moon is in Gemini we can feel the need to get together with friends and find our thirst for knowledge can pique. There can also be the tendency to feel quite scattered and stuck in our heads. It’s an easy time for communication of all kinds.
Lunar Self-Care for Gemini
🌛 Open-up a course you have been studying and get learning or research something new
🌛 Get together with like-minded friends for some witty banter and maybe even a gossip
🌛 Write a blog post, do a podcast interview or do editing
🌛 Do things that are fun, playful and evoke feelings of positivity
Journaling question:
How can I stop over-thinking and trust my intuition more?
Essential oil:
Lavender: this is the oil of communication and calm which can support verbal expression and help to calm a scattered mind. It can encourage emotional honesty and open communication. Inhale, diffuse or apply over the throat, temples and back of the neck.
Void Moon Wednesday September 28th: 2:18pm to 11:34pm (AEST)
Do menial tasks, focus on nourishing self-care and avoid making big decisions
Wednesday September 29th to Friday October 1st
The Third Quarter Moon will be in emotional Cancer. With the Moon in this water sign, and also the Moon’s home sign, we can feel more sensitive than usual. We might also feel more nostalgic and it’s the time when our mothering instincts kick in- to mother not only others but also ourselves. You might feel more inclined to spend time in the comfort of your home with your loved ones.
Lunar Self-Care for Cancer
🌛 Enjoy physical self-care and have a goddess bath
🌛 Prepare some comfort food to share with your loved ones
🌛 Communicate your feelings as a way to release any sensitive emotions
🌛 Spend time near water or the ocean an cry it all out
Journaling question:
How can I nourish and nurture myself more?
Essential oil:
Chamomile: this oil can help to relieve stress and calm any big emotions and soothe the mind when you are feeling overly sensitive. Diffuse, inhale or apply to wrists and back of neck.

Friday October 1st to Sunday October 3rd
The Waning Crescent Moon will be in outgoing Leo. The mood will lighten up quite a bit, with the Leo Moon encouraging our self-expression, playfulness and creativity. You may feel inclined to go out and have some fun, to dance or be inspired to do something creative.
Lunar Self Care for Leo
🌛 Dance in your living room to your favourite upbeat tunes
🌛 Make art or do a creative project of some kind (we are ALL creative in some way!)
🌛 Engage in some heart-led conversations with loved one
🌛 Wear clothes that make you feel good and which are true to your own style so you can boldly step out with confidence
Journaling question:
How can I harness my self-expression and creativity more every day?
Essential oil:
Cheer: this blend is like liquid sunshine and evokes the Leo vibes of fun and playfulness. Diffuse or roll across your heart centre.
