A waxing crescent phase is the moon’s first step toward its full potential. At this time, you’ll see changes put into motion from the new moon. Under this lunation, it’s common to feel an increased sense of anxiety, insecurity, or need for comfort. This is a good time to evaluate patterns and identify what’s needed for the next phase you’re heading toward. While the new moon is the time to shed old patterns and prepare for what’s next, the waxing crescent phase is your time to put a plan together.
