Aspects:
- Trines show an ease of communication between the planets, it’s an easy aspect
- Squares create friction between the two planets, but can point to places where lots of growth is possible
- Oppositions create opposition between the two planets, however compromise is possible if worked at
- Sextiles are happy aspects, both planets are happy to work with each other
- Conjunctions can be either easy or not so easy, depending on the planets involved, some get along with each other’s may spark each other into action or dispute. In this instance, the Moon is Feminine and Mars is Masculine, so there may be some differences that need overcoming, or communication may not go as planned.
The Moon and Astrology
HOW IT AFFECTS OUR DAILY LIVES…
In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :)
The Moon Void-of-Course:
There are times throughout the month when the moon isn’t fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void of Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void of Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-of-Course moon…
- Cancer
- Taurus
- Sagittarius
- Pisces…
Opportunity Periods
There are other periods throughout the month that are known as Opportunity Periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods. thanks to Paula Belluomini astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods and dates.
