Last Quarter in Cancer
3 October 2026 · 13:27 UTC
In 30 days
The Moon squares the Sun at 10°22′ Cancer on 3 October 2026, 13:27 UTC — ninety degrees of separation, and a half-lit disc in the sky.
The last quarter is the releasing square. The cycle has peaked and this is the point at which it is worth deciding what to stop carrying. In Cancer what asks to be released is usually an old feeling attaching itself to a new situation and making it heavier than it is.
