  • Date: March 5 @10:38 pm (ET) @7:38 pm (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Virgo
  • Moon Phase: 2nd
  • Void-off-Course:  March 8th @9:07 am(ET) @6:07am (PT) to moon in Libra about 1/2 an hour later.  Virgo 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:

Purim begins at Sundown on March 6th: 

Full Moon in 16 degrees Virgo occurs on Tuesday March 7th @ 7:40am (ET) @ 4:40am (PT). The full moon is a good time to finish up projects, and to end anything that is no longer serving… Sometimes this may mean relationships come to an end or change… such as friends moving away, leaving a job or finishing school. We can utilize the full moon to symbolically remove things or people from our lives which prove to more challenging than productive. Simply, grab pen and paper and jot down what it is that you would like to change in your life.  find a heat proof container big enough to catch the ashes, (like a big ashtray or bowl) light a candle… read your list, you can read it out loud or to yourself… once read, and digested, (your heart is connected to that which you wish to change) light the paper and let it burn, the ash symbolically takes your words and wishes (in the smoke) into the Universe and forever away from you. :) 

Saturn, the planet of discipline and restrictions visits with the sign of Pisces, on March 7th, @8:35 am(ET) 5:35 am(PT). Mercury is also visiting the sign of Pisces).  We could experience some set backs and disappointments when it comes to our dreams. Be prepared to change your plans, and to accept the responsibilities that come with any new projects or jobs. Our reality may be slightly off kilter and we could come up against some people, places and situations that demand we face what is needed to be faced. We may feel better equipped in same life area’s to finally push forward and make important changes in our personal lives, this may come as we are “awakened” to what is really going on around us, or we may see a person show their true colors. Keeping our expectations to a reasonable level will help us navigate what may be some stormy waters for some of us. This celestial event will affect those with Pisces, Capricorn, Virgo, Cancer chart influences the most, although we will feel the subtle affects of this event.

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.

Astrology, and how it affects our daily life: Transiting New Moon in Pisces: February 2023

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

http://www.123rf.com: Copyright : Ka Ho Leung

  • Date: February 19 @11:56pm (ET) @8:56pm (PT) 
  • Moon Sign: Pisces
  • Moon Phase: 4th
  • Void-of-Course: February 21@ 11:06 pm (ET) 8:06 pm (PT) to Moon in Aries later that night (PT) Early Morning on the 22nd (ET) : Pisces is a fortunate sign for the Void off Course moon. 
  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • Pisces is compassionate and caring but can be taken for granted
  • Sometimes Pisces isn’t about helping others but helping oneself. 
  • We can be more psychic during a Pisces moon, but we can also be easily deceived, so be sure of the “messages” received during this time.
  • Be careful if something sounds too good to be true, look for the hidden agenda
  • We can be susceptible to taking in stray animals and stray people now. 
  • Our hearts can be broken or melted during this time depending on who is telling us what and what may be revealed now. 
  • We can feel more spiritual with a Pisces moon, indicating this could be a good time to join a church or spiritual group
  • Keep an open mind when delving into new spiritual situations, ask questions and don’t believe everything you hear or see. 
  • We can be wistful, impressionable, nostalgic and dreamy now.
  • The moon in Pisces will have more effect on those who have the following in their charts: The Pisces moon will also have a lessor affect on those who have strong Virgo chart influences. 
  • Moon in Pisces:
  • Sun in Pisces
  • Moon in the 12th house
  • Aspects to the Moon or Neptune
  • Neptune in Pisces
  • Ascendant or Mid-Heaven in Pisces

NOTES:

February 19 @ 11:06 pm (PT) February 20 @ 2:06 am (ET). The new moon occurs in Pisces. We now have the Sun in Pisces, and the new moon in Pisces. The New Moon is said to be the best time to start anything new, this will be especially true for anyone with Pisces chart influences. We have a few days to begin our projects. This may be a good time time to begin a new job, relationship or to investigate a new study or career direction. Be aware of what you are told during this time, should you be entering into a contract or new relationship… Folks may be feeling more melancholy and therefor may promise more than they can produce. We may be more sensitive during this time, Pisces is water, and water is connected to our emotions.. like water our emotions can be as still as glass or as wavy as a trampoline… if you are dealing with emotional issues during this time, take care not to let your imagination run away with you… check your facts if you can before coming to conclusions. Things may not go exactly as one imagined, so be prepared to take a different view, change your mind or go in a different direction.

On February 19 @11:56 pm (PT) February 20 @2:06 am (ET). Venus moves into the sign of Aries. Aries is a little “uncomfortable” in Venus, he is all energy, assertion, full steam ahead action,  where as, Venus likes to take her time, she likes to stop and think about things, check out all the pretty things around her.. Venus rules Libra and Taurus, Libra is the opposite sign to Aries, which may give you an idea as to why these two get along but don’t always agree. We could be experiencing some frustrations or impatience, and our relationships may have a few bumps to go over, but on the flip side, we could also be feeling a little braver and up to trying something completely new or different. In our love life, we may be more spontaneous and in it for a fun time, rather than the long haul… If you a sensitive type entering into a new relationship, try not to go “head over heals” on the first date, as the other person may not be feeling the same vibe. Venus is connected to finances, Aries can either be a saver or a spender, enjoy if you have the funds, but watch the budget.

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • The Leo Moon enjoys drama. Try not to make “mountains out of mole hills” and tone down on the gossip..
  • The Leo Moon loves to be noticed and recognized. “Pump up” your loved ones, and, if you happen 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 one doing the over reacting
  • It’s a good time to check out the local talent, take in a downtown show, get starry-eyed with your lover, or perhaps look for a new one, as romance is high on the Agenda under this influence. 
  • This may be a positive time for: Beauty treatments: Borrowing money: Buying a home: Entertaining Guests: Fixing Cars: Hair Cut (For thickness): Moving: Mowing the Law (to retard growth): Painting: Pouring Cement: Starting new construction: Starting a new job:

  • Moon in Leo:
  • Sun in Leo:  
  • Moon in Aquarius
  • Sun in Aquarius 
  • Moon in the 5th house
  • Aspects to the moon or the Sun
  • Those who have a strong Aquarius placement in their charts may also feel this moon’s influence more than others. 

NOTES

  • The moon becomes FULL in the sign of Leo on Sunday February 5th @ 1:29pm (ET) @ 10:29am (PT)
  • The Full Moon is said to be the perfect time to end up projects, finish up letters and emails, clean out the desk at work, declutter etc… Not a great time to start anything new, but if you have to, the Full Moon will have you slightly more emotional than usual, and with it being in the sign of Leo, we could be feeling braver…
  • This Full Moon will affect us all, however, it is likely to affect those with the following more:
  • Moon in Leo:
  • Sun in Leo:
  • Moon in the 5th house:

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life…Transiting Moon in Aquarius.. January 2023

 Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

Copyright : Natalia Hubbert
  • Date: January 21 @ 1:29 pm (ET) @ 10:29 am (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Aquarius 
  • Moon Quarter: 4th moves into the first on the 22nd.
  • Void-of-Course: January 23 @5:19 am (ET) @2:19 am (PT) to moon into Pisces around lunch time (ET).   Aquarius 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?

  • Aquarius is ahead of his time, he is capable of thinking and “seeing” things in a different way then the rest of us. This makes the Aquarius moon phase and inventive one. 
  • Aquarius is ruled by Uranus,  the planet of  shock and chaos. His original ruler was Saturn, until Uranus was discovered. And like Uranus, Aquarius folks can surprise us sometimes, they can be rebellious and “cranky” or open minded and extremely helpful. 
  • We may feel more inclined towards kindness, especially on a “global” level or towards animals, the elderly and those worse off than us. Aquarius has a distinctly humanitarian streak. 
  • The time may be right to understand/learn about new technology, such as a new phone, tablet or t.v. coding or crypto.
  • We may be feeling more rebellious than usual, prompting us to try new things and/or meet new people. 
  • Be careful not to break tradition just because one feels like being different. Teenagers may feel the need to express themselves, so parents be for-warned. 
  • Personal freedom and individuality is very important now. Partner’s try not to restrict each other’s movements. Parent’s, it might be a tight line you walk now. Employer’s give your “worker’s” a little “slack”. 
  • Being organized might not go as planned, so expect weird schedule’s and interrupted meetings…
  • Changes may be in the air…if you are o.k. with change, or you absolutely have to make changes, now could be an excellent time to go ahead with your plans.
  • Maybe a good time for inventions.
  • When the moon is in Aquarius she will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. along with those with strong Leo placements in their charts. 
  • The next few days may be positive for the following: Joining a club, borrowing money, fixing cars, hair care (colors and chemical treatments), moving, painting, pouring cement, starting a new job or new construction. 
  • Moon in Aquarius
  • Sun in Aquarius
  • Uranus in Aquarius
  • Moon in the  11th house
  • Moon in Leo (to a lessor extent)
  • Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Aquarius
  • Any aspects to the Moon or the sun . 
  • Those who have a strong Leo or Aquarius chart influence.

NOTES:

January 20th.

  • Sun🟡  moves into Aquarius  ♒ (see previous post)

  • New Moon in Aquarius, 3:53 pm (ET) 12:53 pm (PT). When the moon is new, it is said to be a good time to begin new projects, jobs, relationships, anything that we have not had the pleasure of experiencing before. Because the new moon is in the sign of Aquarius this month, technology, transportation, humanitarian and creative projects may be on the agenda. We can bring new energy into our lives during a new moon. Do a New Moon meditation or write a list of the things, people, places and situations you would like to bring into your life this month, read it, believe it and then burn it and leave it all up to the Universe. 😊

We are still here… :)

Hi Everyone; 😊

We hope that you have all enjoyed the holiday season… :) For some the season brings sadness, we understand this fully, having lost loved ones over the last 7 years, most recently we lost our beloved brother in law on November 27 2022. May next year be much better for all

However, we did have company this Christmas, such company, that filled our hearts with joy and gratitude… saying goodbye again, was an emotional challenge, especially as one good bye was today, January 6th, with a full moon in Cancer, Mercury retrograde in Capricorn, and opposition between the sun, moon and mercury. I can honestly say that the water element of Cancer, was flowing freely.

Due to the loss of our loved one occurring close to Christmas and the surprise visit from family, we haven’t had the time or the energy to post our usual planetary updates… we appreciate your patience and your support… and we fully expect to be posting our updates once again in the very near future…

FYI: Friday January 6th sees a full moon in Cancer occurring just after 6pm. Cancer is ruled by the moon, the moon is happy in this sign, however, as with all full moons, emotions can run high… if you feel like crying, there is nothing wrong with allowing yourself a good “cleansing”… Love and doing actions that show that love is what this full moon is all about… The Full Moon is said to be the best time for releasing, letting go of used up emotions, creating space from toxics relationships, ending bad habits, and the ending of situations that no longer serve you… Sometimes such endings occur without our “consent” we are forced into them, at other times, we are “directed” towards possible changes, or towards opportunities to end what is no longer working… in these instances, we need to be aware and awake.

Mercury is in retrograde motion, in the sign of Capricorn… Mercury rules over, transportation, communications and technology, he is the messenger… We can expect disruptions in these area’s when Mercury is in retrograde motion, during this time it is better to re-do then begin anew.. Expect to have to re do things. Career and work situations, frustrations, ending and change are most likely to affected during this mercury retrograde.
