At 12:13 a.m.: The moon is square the sun

Just after midnight, the Gemini moon squares the Virgo sun. The last quarter moon aligns with the lunar North Node, and so trusting our intuition is pivotal at this juncture. The message, loud and clear, is that we are at risk of getting stuck in our ways. We must avoid identifying too rigidly with limiting beliefs, and events transpire now which force us to acknowledge that our destiny lies elsewhere. We might be prevented from getting things right or doing things perfectly, and the resulting frustration causes us to seek out new information or learn a new skill. An open mind is our most valuable asset now.

At 2:26 a.m.: The moon is trine Saturn

Following this, the moon trines Saturn in Aquarius, synthesizing curiosity and wisdom. There is no shame in asking for help, and we can learn much in our interactions with elders who have life experience and knowledge we lack. This is a great time for asking questions of our forebears in family or in work, inheriting passed-down stories, recipes, or investigating our ancestry.
