Jo Avalon’s Third Quarter Moon Guidance – 6 Aug 2026

Hello from Gwandalan💙,

Today, I pulled out three cards from the ‘Bonestone & Earthflesh Tarot’ to share with you. Which one feels like the enchanting message you need right now? Choose left, middle or right, and scroll down to receive your guidance for this moon phase.

Thursday 6 August is a Third Quarter Moon in Taurus.  Taurus energy is grounded, stable and persistent, and emphasises comfort, sensuality and long-term security. Third Quarter Moon energy focuses on the required adjustments to bring about completion, forgiveness and transformation.

You could ask yourself: Where have I been, what have I done? Are my actions in alignment with my intention? What adjustments to my plan do I need to make to get back on track? Do I need to restructure or reconsider any part of my goals in light of this month’s results? What grounding activity do I need to reactivate?

Now, here are your enchanting messages.

Left Card: Two of Cups – Kindred Spirit, harmony, creativity, relationship, receptivity to love, soul connection, partnership, blossoming, sensual pleasure

The energy here indicates a new heart connection, whether it’s with another person or upon rediscovering yourself. This is not the time to be losing yourself in this connection. Boundaries are as important as ever, as is equity in contribution towards shared goals. This connection can nourish the soul and expand what’s possible beyond what was previously envisioned. Your heart is open to experience nourishment and expansion.

Middle Card: Ten of Pentacles – The Tribe, wealth, prosperity, success, resources, abundant, family, fulfilment, security, satisfaction

The energy here suggests that now is a time of prolonged and lasting happiness. You are secure in resources and familial attachments. All living beings in your sphere are part of your grounded harmony, as you are part of theirs. Your planning and efforts have resulted in this abundance, and you are safe to enjoy it now.

Right Card: 5 The Hierophant – Wise One, wisdom, tradition, conventionalism, guide, teacher, seeker of truth, the great Crone, religious and spiritual authority, Shaman

The energy here invites you to walk a traditional path and learn some conventional tools needed to navigate through life’s density and darkness. The Wise One leads you on a path of truth and deep discovery, of ancient ways still relevant in our modern world. She isn’t asking you to give up your individuality, rather to be guided to your own sovereignty.

All Three Cards:

The energy of all three cards reveals a powerful blend of heart expansion, grounded abundance, and wise tradition. A new heart connection is opening – whether with another person or through rediscovering yourself – and it invites nourishment, growth, and possibility, provided you maintain clear boundaries and honour equity in shared intentions. You are entering a period of lasting happiness and stability, supported by secure resources, strong familial and communal ties, and the harmony you’ve cultivated through your own steady efforts. At the same time, the Wise One calls you toward a traditional path, encouraging you to learn the tools to help you navigate life’s shadows with clarity and sovereignty. These energies together remind you that love, abundance, and wisdom are converging now, guiding you toward a future that is both expansive and deeply rooted.
