Second Quarter Moon, August 5, 2022, 7:07 AM to Full Moon, August 11, 9:38 PM EDT
Second Quarter Moons are the most productive phase of the Lunar cycle. We gain momentum in the first week and culminate efforts in the third, or Full Moon week. In the fourth week, we dissolve into emptiness before cycling up again at the next New Moon. This pattern of building and releasing reflects the life span and repeats each lunar month.
In addition to pronounced productivity, resisting external forces is another feature of the Second Quarter Moon phase. Think of the “no” behavior of a two-year-old or the age-appropriate rebelliousness of a teen. Those in your family, circle of friends, or workgroup who perpetually question authority are likely to have been born in a 2nd Quarter Moon phase. (You can look it up here: https://themoonjoy.com/birthday-moon-phase/. Please note that I call the second week of the lunar month the second quarter, while many name it the first quarter.)
Since standing up to external authority is a natural imprint of this lunar phase, it is critical to claim our strength and power this week. The glorious opportunity is to resist internal lethargy and malaise and claim what we want and vision for ourselves and our world.
While standing up to external pressure is inherent in this week’s lunar energies, the opportunity is to align ourselves with the sacred light within. What are we doing that stands in the way of personal progress? What thoughts keep us from freedom, and what false conditioning blocks our path? What holds us back from full glory, to be revealed, again and again, each Full Moon?
The cosmic energies bless us this week with openings, opportunities, and chances to release the truth of our creativity in transformative ways. Do not be surprised if, during this lunar week, stuffed and stifled emotional content breaks through the surface to be moon-kissed into freedom.
5D Here, Now
This week’s cosmic energies plug into the 5D portal access of Sovereignty. This lunar week gives us the opening to shake off, discard, and eliminate that which shackles our sovereignty.
We are used to regarding sovereignty through a political or national lens. In this time of 5D consciousness, sovereignty extends to personal autonomy, authority, and the divine right of being human. We have the consciousness to choose and accept or decline. 5D helps us realize our natural state of being is sovereign. This is a week to claim that sovereignty, that fierce inner power of solid self-worth.
We need to know our worth to live it.
How-To
Space, time, silence, and reflection are needed to help you feel and then own your sovereignty. We cannot tap into this reservoir of power when we are pressured with responsibilities and time crunches.
One way to start tapping into awareness of your sovereignty is to make as much space as possible for quiet reflection. Take a bath, sit on the porch and look at the sky, write in your journal, ask for help through the dream and then either write the dream details down or speak them into an audio file. Go back and ponder the mysterious messages of the dream state.
We must feel it to be it. Sovereignty is crucial now in this time of profound transformation. We need to know our worth to live it.
What is suggested here is not necessarily easy. It takes focus and active internal inquiry. The journey starts with one step. I hope you can take the step that leads to unearthing your powerful sovereignty as a divine human, alive with choice.

Void of Course Moon Times this Week
There are extended Void Moon times for the United States and Canada on Saturday, August 6, and Monday, August 8. These Void Moon times include an intense Monday Morning blues, nebulous feeling, and perhaps, not wanting to get out of bed. These Void Moon times occur in the afternoon on both those days for European people.
There is a brief, two-hour Void Moon for the United States and Canada on Wednesday, and this will occur in the evening hours for those in Europe.
The exact times are below, along with a time converter link.
A workbook on A New Relationship with Time is in the works. The Void of Course Moon is one of the sections in this upcoming workbook. Stay tuned for release announcements.
Void Moons: No form to contain the energy which feels free-floating and hard to focus. Heeding what your body wants during Void Moons — more internal focus, less external focus, and more stillness, quiet, and rest — are great ways to embody the Moon.
The Void Moon Times this week include:
Saturday, August 6, 7:24 AM to 12:39 PM EDT
Monday, August 8, 6:30 AM to 2:39 PM EDT
Wednesday, August 10, 12:40 PM to 2:45 PM

Blessed Be. See you next week, at the Full Moon.
