  • Date: December 12 @ 9:39 pm (ET) @ 6:39 pm (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Sagittarius 
  • Moon Phase: 4th
  • Void-of-Course: December 14 @ 11:17 am (ET) @ 8:17 am (PT) to moon into Capricorn a couple of hours later: Moon v/c in Sagittarius is one of the 4 void of course  “good signs”.
  • Opportunity Period: None
  • **NOTES**: The New Moon/Solar Eclipse occurs on Monday December 14th at 11:17 am (ET) @ 8:17 am (PT) in 23 degrees Sagittarius. The new moon is traditionally a good time to begin new projects, is excellent for new beginnings and for some people can represent a “birth”… ;) If you birthday falls on during an eclipse, including a day before or after your birthday, you could be in for a significant “new year” ahead… :) 

What does it all mean?

    • Sagittarius is the most “easy-going” of the fire signs and is ruled by Jupiter “the lucky planet”
    • We are going to want our personal freedom now, so take care partners who have a possessive or jealous tendencies, they might not be tolerated for the next couple of days. 
    • Because Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter “the lucky planet” we may be feeling luckier then usual… Just take care not to go over the budget… :) 
    • We could have more energy for fun things such as music, sports and shows
    • It’s easier to try something new and exciting just take care not to get carried away.
    • Could be a good time to take a few days for rest, relaxation and laughter
    • Good time for day dreaming and making fantastic plans for the future.
    • While this moon will have a slight effect on all of us… those with the following in their charts will feel it stronger as will those who have a strong Gemini or Cancer placement in their charts. 
  • Moon in Sagittarius
  • Jupiter in Sagittarius
  • Moon in the 9th house
  • Ascendant in Sagittarius
  • Mid-heaven in Sagittarius
  • Sun in Sagittarius
  • Aspects to the Moon and Jupiter.

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…

Opportunity Periods  (thanks to astrologer Paula Belluomini ):

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.

  • Date: November 29 @ 11:16 am (ET) @ 8:16 am (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Gemini:
  • Moon Phase: 2nd
  • Void-of-Course: November 30 @ 11:22 pm (ET) @ 8:22 pm (PT) to moon into Cancer on December 1st
  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • Gemini is an air sign and needs lots of stimuli. She is ruled by Mercury. Mercury turns direct on January 8th but will still be in his “storm” until January 14…. remain vigilant until then, as plans can still go in the opposite direction you were intending.
  • The house connected to Gemini is the 3rd house of: day-to-day travel/affairs and siblings… we could find ourselves busy with multiple things going on, even if they are just in our own minds… ;) Dealings with family, especially siblings, are likely. Memories are shared and possible solutions to old problems can be found. However, wait until after the Mercury Retrograde before putting any new ideas or plans into motion. 
  • We may find we are trying to do multiple things at once, which may not go exactly as we may have planned. If you do find you have tons of ideas spinning around in your head, take pen to paper and jot them down… it will ease the “inside chatter” and you may find some of them useful later on. 
  • Could be lots of chit chatting going on, and some of us may have to make a concerted effort to listen instead of chat.
  • Caution is advised when doing up letters, emails and relaying messages, as much as we may think we have it right, it’s better to check one more time
  • A new study could be on the cards for some of us.. and it will likely be approached with enthusiasm. 
  • If it’s possible to go on vacation now, grab the chance, you might learn more than you could have ever imagined… :) 
  • It’s a good time to get those lists and notes made up… we can feel good about putting pen to paper now.
  • Boredom may be at our door step and we may feel more restless than usual. 
  • This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
        • Sun in Gemini
        • Moon in Gemini
        • Moon in the 3rd house
        • Moon in Sagittarius
        • Any aspects to the Sun, Moon, Mercury or Jupiter

FULL Moon/Lunar Eclipse occurs on Monday November 30th @ 4:30 am (ET) @ 1:30 am (PT).

 

  • The full moon is traditionally thought of as being the best time to finish up on things already on the go… it’s not the greatest time to begin something.
  • The Full Moon represents completion and she helps us to finally put things behind us or to rest.
  • Sometimes, a Full Moon can bring an end to life.
  • All Gemini influences will be stronger under a Full Moon..
  • We could be very chatty, engaging in more than one thing at time..
  • Watch for taking on too much at once and not being able to focus on any of them for very long
  • It may be more of a challenge to sit and do nothing, being bored may bring about a cranky mood.
  • We could be more superficial than usual. Try not to make promises that you can’t keep.

  • We could be encouraged or directed towards taking risks or doing things we wouldn’t normally do, especially those of a group or team nature.

  • Some of us may be highly creative, while others may connect with their psychic side… 
  • Secrets may be told now… we can be enticed to open up to others about our deepest feelings/fantasy’s…Take care with whom you share your secrets if you don’t want them “displayed” at a later date. Some folks may keep your information until it suits them to use it without your consent.
  • While we will all be effected slightly by the Scorpio moon, she will have a greater effect on those who have the following in their charts.. and those who have a strong Aries or Taurus placement in their charts.

The NEW MOON in Scorpio

November 14th (PT) November 15th (ET):

  • The new moon is traditionally the best time for beginnings… The influences listed above will be stronger under a new moon… especially for those who have Scorpio chart placings… 
  • When the moon renews herself in the sign of Scorpio, it may be wise for us to “be careful what we wish for” … Scorpio, has a connection to the “mysteries of the other world” She is intrigued by it… She will research it and sometimes embrace it… She is ruled by Pluto and connected to the 8th house. 
  • Scorpio is intense, everything she does she must feel “connected” to… This means our emotions during this new moon will also be intense… Be sure that what you are feeling is real and not enhanced by the Scorpio moon..
  • If you have an idea or project you want to get off of the ground, the better day to begin would be on the 16th when the moon has moved into her first quarter. 

NOTES: 

  • Mars turns direct on Friday November 13th @ 7;36 pm (ET) @ 4:36 pm (PT).
  • Mars rules Aries, he was the old ruler of Scorpio before Pluto was discovered
  • We may be able to assert ourselves better, or at least have a clearer understanding of what makes us angry..
  • Energy levels are increased for some of us, making this an excellent time to get physical, roll up the sleeves and do some manual labour, or get started on a healthy work plan…
  • Our patience may be thinner, take care when and what is said in haste.
  • Take care when driving, using sharp tools or rushing around, it’s easier to have accidents especially the couple of days up to the 13th and a few days after
  • We could be feeling braver and more courageous
  • A sigh is heard all around as we feel the “freedom” to move forward with plans and goals.

The full moon is traditionally said to be the best time to finish up projects, especially fortunate if the moon is sitting in the 4th quarter. However, this full moon sits in the 2nd quarter, which may indicate that completely finishing off those projects isn’t going to happen…. but we can sure make a lot of progress, perhaps “just about” finishing multiply projects instead of concentrating on just one… :)

This months full moon occurs on September 1st @10:22 pm (PT) September 2nd @ 1:22 am (ET)

  • The full moon will emphasize the traits mentioned above.
