What 🌗 means

A half moon with its left side lit. It means the last quarter, when the moon is halfway back from full to new.

Used in moon-phase posts and calendars. Astrology fans link this phase to letting go and clearing out what no longer serves them. It also fits the quiet, fading end of a cycle.
