The Moon squares the Sun at 6°18′ Aries on 27 December 2025, 19:11 UTC — ninety degrees of separation, and a half-lit disc in the sky.
The first quarter is the friction point of the waxing half of the cycle. What was begun at the new moon meets its first real resistance here, and the square is the aspect that asks whether you meant it. In Aries the resistance tends to arrive as impatience: the gap between how fast you want this and how fast it is actually able to move.
