Below is sample text from the Cosmic Patterns Software Lunar Phase Report.
Last Quarter Phase:
You were born during the Third, or the Last Quarter Phase of the Lunar Cycle.
Just as it sounds, this is a time of endings, when the energy of the Moon is winding down towards the Balsamic Phase. This Phase has been characterized as a "crisis in consciousness." As the First Quarter Phase is described as a "crisis in action," the external organization of energy, creating a strong foundation to build upon, the "crisis in consciousness" is an internalized re-organization of energy.
It is a time of turning away from what has been, reflecting feelings of discontent towards those passions characteristic of the times you found it hard to relate to the status quo as a child. Perhaps you found yourself responding to the enthusiasm of the status quo with a non-enthusiastic "this is it?" attitude. Always standing a little apart from your peers, you had your own internal processes at work guiding and directing you in life. You may have needed a lot of alone time. Perhaps you needed more rest as a child. Your way of processing is through the unconscious state. Naps as a child would have helped you sort life out, and meditation as an adult will give you the internal clarity needed to separate from the day to day hectic pace so prevalent in the physical world.
You can be a master of the game, wearing the appropriate mask of participation. But what others may see isn't necessarily what they get. All the time, you are undergoing ideological transformation. As the butterfly suddenly appears from its chrysalis, you to will emerge entirely new, much to the amazement of all who thought they new you quite well.
Dreams are a vehicle for understand your internal process. Keeping a dream journal and reading your story as it unfolds can bring what is unconscious, to the light of understanding....
Your progressed Lunar Phase now is in the first third of the Last Quarter Moon Phase. Each phase lasts about 3 1/2 years so you have at least 2 more years of this phase left.
This is a time of pulling away from what has been. At the onset of this Progressed Phase, you began to find it hard to relate to life as you had been for the last 3 1/2 years or so. Friends and family may find you becoming distant, less enthusiastic about doing anything born of the past. You are at the 'breaking down' stage of the game. You can go along for the ride somewhat, but you are entering a time of closure. It is important to recognize this time is just as important as a time of initiation and growth. You need to give yourself permission to take a back seat, or not even to participate if you feel this is necessary. You are at a point of processing all that has been in order to regroup and get ready for the new. Process time will give you the strength and stamina needed for the new dawn waiting. Stirrings of discontentment are the signs along the way showing us that change is of the essence and inevitable for growth. Avoid clinging to those things that seem to naturally fall away. It is their destiny to become a part of the past....
