Happy Birthday Libra Folks…

We wish you a year ahead filled with love, laughter, prosperity and good health…

CHEERS 🥂🍻

September 21  NEW MOON in Virgo. (this months moon falls in the void of course area, the moon is no longer in the sign of Virgo but is shadowing the moon in that sign… the next moon sign is Libra right behind the VOC position. It is possible that this new moon, will show traits of both signs… Virgo and Libra. 

The New Moon is traditionally a good time to begin things, be they projects, jobs, relationships, what ever is new in your life that is begun under a new moon, has a greater chance of success.. Any time from the 21nd to the 23rd should be positive for “new beginnings”. The traits of the Moon in Virgo will be “amplified” under the New Moon… Some of us may experience difficulty in staying asleep, or our sleep is restless…

Aspects:

  • Squares can be challenging, two planets who don’t always get along, friction can develop, a feeling of being challenged by the other… some times we need that challenge to wake us up and get us motivated, great growth is possible, if we are up to the challenge
  • Opposition, challenging like the square, but not all is lost, the planets are at odds with each other, but that doesn’t mean they can’t come to a compromise, although it may take one over the other to back down before anything can move ahead… Take a deep breath, listen to the other view point, and find the middle ground. If that can’t be done, then maybe it’s just not meant to be, acknowledging that will also “set you free”
  • Quincunx are frustrating and may require some adjustments/adjusting, they have nothing in common… We may feel forced, pushed or obligated to perform..  may also relate to health issues. Not a great time, just keep reminding yourself it will all be over soon.
  • Trines are very comfortable aspects, the planets involved are usually of the same element, (Earth, Fire, Water, Air) so they understand each other…trouble happens when comfortable take precedence over doing anything else, this aspect can induce some laziness, great it it’s time for some chilling… if it’s not that time, you may find you have to give yourself a push to get going.
  • Sextiles are planets that are of the same compatible element, (Fire and Air or Earth and Water) they have differences but totally respect each other.. so they are able to work well together.
  • Conjunctions are variable, they can be helpful or not depending on the circumstances and the people involved…

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life… Transiting Moon in Virgo July 2025

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

16341926-manga-style-illustration-of-zodiac-symbol-virgo[1]
http://www.123rf.com: Copyright : rudall30
  • Date: July 26 @4:55 pm (ET) @1:55 pm (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Virgo
  • Moon Phase: 1st
  • Void-off-Course: July 28 @8:57 pm (ET) @5:12 pm (PT)  to moon into Libra late that night or early morning on the 29th. Moon v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs” Try not to make any important decisions or commitments now.
  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • Virgo is all about the details, so be prepared to see to them, or at least have someone else see to them for you. 
  • Try not to worry about things you have no control over, especially things that might not ever happen… Because Virgo “see’s” all the details others miss, it’s hard for her not to worry… 
  • It’s good to keep busy during a Virgo moon, make lists, tidy, organize, plan, find solutions to problems… a lot can get done now
  • Virgo can be more critical than the rest of the zodiac, but only because she so needs things to be “correct” or “perfect”. If you are an employer, be prepared that tasks may not get completed exactly the way you had expected, be gentle and patient. 😊
  • The Moon in Virgo can be good for the following activities:
  • Break Habits (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Canning foods (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Fixing Cars:
  • Hair cut for less growth (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Mowing the lawn to retard growth (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Sending Mail:
  • Starting a diet (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter): 
  • This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. 
  • Moon in Virgo
  • Sun in Virgo
  • Ascendant in Virgo
  • Mid-heaven in Virgo
  • Moon in 6th house
  • Any aspects to the Moon or Mercury.
  • And those who have a strong Pisces placement in their charts..

NOTES:

Saturday the 26th: Moon in Virgo, squares Uranus in Gemini, Qunicunx to Saturn in Aries, Qunicunx to Neptune in Aries and a Qunicunx to Pluto in Aquarius. All happening during the afternoon and evening, with the last aspect happening @9:37 pm (ET) @6:37 pm (PT). 

Sunday the 27th: The Moon in Virgo sextiles Jupiter in Cancer:

Monday the 28th: Venus in Gemini makes a sextile to Chiron in Aries. The Moon in Virgo conjuncts Mars in Virgo. Moon in Virgo squares Venus in Gemini. Aspects begin @ 12:55 pm (ET) 9:55 am (ET), with the last one begining @8:57 pm (ET) @5:57 pm (PT).

Aspects Definitions: 
  • Squares, these are challenging and can be frustrating, on the up side, Squares can push us to make changes that we have been putting off, or which we are “afraid” to embrace.. while the process may be painful, the results will be beneficial.
  • Opposition, another challenging aspect, where frustration levels may hit the roof, and it might not be easy to move ahead with projects or relationships, unless a compromise is reached, it’s not impossible but is it going to be worth it in the end.. that’s what needs to be figured out…
  • Quincunx can be a rather exasperating aspect, it’s a “smaller” aspect which is a good thing, as the signs involved are not compatible at all, the little “quin” can cause health issues too, however, a little rest, a getaway, meditation, deep breathing and if needed a complete “revamp” of the situation can be helpful in dealing with the challenges.
  • Trines and Sextile’s are “happy” aspects, most of the time things run fairly smoothly when they pop in, and can sometimes bring us good luck, the only down side to these guys is that they can make us lazy…

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.

  • Moon Sign: Leo 
  • Moon Phase: 4th
  • Void-off-Course: July 26 @7:02am (ET) @4:02am (PT) to moon into Virgo later in the afternoon:  Leo Moon v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs”

What does it all mean?

  • The Leo Moon Loves Drama, so be warned… 
  • The Leo Moon loves to noticed and recognized, so be prepared to “pump up” your loved ones and if you happened to have a Leo influence in yourself, be aware of how you may be going about getting recognized or appreciated… If you play your cards right this could be a positive time when you get to be where you need to be.
  • Try not to be overly “vain” and be prepared for drama at any-time from any direction
  • Try not to over react and if it’s not you doing the over reacting, try not to get caught up in the drama, or to encourage the over reactor
  • It’s a good time to check out the local talent, take in a down town show, get starry-eyed with your lover, or perhaps look for a new one, as romance is high on the priority ladder during this time. 
  • Might prove positive for hair cuts, make overs. 
  • The Moon in Leo may be good for the following activities:
  • Beauty Treatments (Better when the moon is in the 1st or 2nd quarter):
  • Break Habits:
  • Buying a home (Better when the moon is in the 1st quarter):
  • Entertaining Guests:

  • Starting a diet:
  • Starting new construction (Better when the moon is in the 1st quarter):
  • Staring a new job (Better when the moon is in the 1st or 2nd quarter)
  • This moon period will affect everyone, but more so those who have the following in their charts: And those who have a strong Capricorn or Aquarius placement in their charts. 
    • Moon in Leo:

    • Ascendant in Leo
    • Mid-heaven in Leo
  • NOTES:
  • The New Moon occurs on July 24 @3:11 pm (ET) @12:11 pm (PT) in the sign of Leo:
  • All of the above will be “bigger” under the New Moon energy, presently in the 4th quarter.
  • It is said that the new moon is a good time to begin projects, relationships, jobs etc… Wait until the 19 when she is fully into the 1st quarter to begin anything.
  • Leo interests such as FUN, Speculation, Children, Creativity and Animals will be highlighted during this months New Moon. 
  • The Sun moved into the sign of Leo on July 22 @9:29 am (ET) @6:29 am (PT). Leo is organized, creative, smart and can be slightly lazy, but he/she usually always steps up to the plate when the need is real…
  • Risk takers, the Leo can accomplish much in life, but they must be careful of not taking risks just for the sake of taking them… Leo is a fixed, fire sign, with Aquarius being the opposite sign to Leo…  Happy Birthday to all the Leo’s out there, we wish you a year ahead filled with good health, prosperity, love and tons of fun…

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life: Transiting Moon in Taurus June 2025:

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

 

  • Date:  June 20 @9:53pm (ET) @6:53pm (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Taurus: 
  • Moon Phase: 4th
  • Void-of-Course: June 22 @9:50pm (ET) @6:50pm (PT) to moon in Gemini a few hours later. Moon in Taurus v/c is one of the 4 “good signs”
  • Opportunity Period: June 20 @6:32 am (ET) 3:32 am (PT) to 9:50pm (ET) 6:50pm (PT) “You have the whole day to network and complete tasks” PB

What does it all mean?

  • Taurus needs emotional and material security, so we may find we are more interested in our financial affairs.
  • This may prove to be a good time to make investments for the future or to begin plans for the next financially responsible phase.
  • Those with strong fire signs (especially Aries) may get impatient with those who are slower at making up their minds, take care not to push too hard guys and gals, it won’t get things moving any faster if you are dealing with folks who have a strong Taurus inclination. 
  • Taurus has lots of patience, indicating this could be a good time to deal with people/projects/situations that take up more time than is liked.
  • Things that give us pleasure, such as comfort foods, wine, relaxing, good music and giving/receiving “loving’s” are all things we may enjoy right now
  • Some of us may be feeling more frugal than usual, preferring to save our funds instead of spend them.
  • Take your time when the moon is in this sign, there is no need to hurry, and you probably won’t get very far if you do… so sit back and enjoy the ride… 🙂
  • Keep your temper under check if you can, Taurus is very, very patient and it takes a lot to make her angry, but watch out once she has had enough, she will certainly let you know..
  • This moon may be positive for: Advertising for sale of personal belongings, beauty treatments, buying clothes, buying a home, getting a hair cut to encourage thickness, moving, painting, pouring cement, starting a new job, savings account or training a pet.
  • This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
    • Moon in Taurus,
    • Sun in Taurus,
    • Venus in Taurus
    • Moon in the 2nd house (house of finances)
    • Any aspects to the Moon
    • Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Taurus
  • Those with strong Libra/Venus placements (Venus rules Taurus and Libra) in their charts may also be effected, and to a lessor extent those with strong Scorpio/Pluto chart placements.

Notes: 

Friday, June 20: 

Summer Solstice (Litha) Sun Moves into Cancer

  • Summer Solstice is a celebration of the first day of summer, it is the longest day of the year. 
  • Litha, also means Summer Solstice, and is the traditional celebration of the Pagan religion, celebrating the longest day of the year and ushering in the Summer… “It symbolizes abundance, growth, and the transition towards the darker half of the year, often celebrated with bonfires, feasting, and rituals honoring nature”.(AI Assist) 

The Sun moves into the sign of Cancer on Friday, June 20

@10:42pm (ET) @7:42pm (PT).

Cancer is a feminine, cardinal water sign… she is super sensitive and loves to nurture her loved ones… Cooking, gardening, making a home comfortable are all Cancer traits…. it’s not easy being a Cancerian, like all water signs, there is a strong connection to the emotions, and feelings can get hurt easily… Sometimes, the Cancerian, although nurturing and usually sensitive to the needs of others, can get a little uppity or moody… This isn’t surprising, seeing as the Moon rules this sign and the moon also rules over our emotions… Watch your Cancerian as the full moon approaches, do you see a change in mood, either positive or negative?… As the Moon becomes full, the Cancerian may also feel “full”, and one may even notice a physical change in the tummy area…. Home and family are super important to the Cancer being, and if there isn’t a natural family to be had, it won’t take long for a substitute to be found… When hurt or upset, or when feeling less then confident, the Cancerian will need to revert to their “safe place”… leave them be for a while, they value their privacy like no other, and will need time to gather their emotions… However, don’t let your Cancerian be alone for too long, it can be tempting for them to remain alone, or “hermitized”… Protect them, care for them, give them room and allow them to be moody once in a while, and you will forever be loved and adored by your Cancerian… 

Wishing all Cancerians a very happy birthday, we wish you good health, happiness and prosperity in the coming year.

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…

Good for Void-Of-Course Moon:

These v/c signs may prove to be quite productive times.

  • Cancer
  • Taurus
  • Sagittarius
  • Pisces…
