First Quarter in Sagittarius

The Moon squares the Sun at 25°57′ Sagittarius on 18 September 2026, 20:45 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 Sagittarius the resistance tends to arrive as impatience: the gap between how fast you want this and how fast it is actually able to move.
