  • Mercury the planet of communication, transportation and technology moves into the sign of Gemini. Gemini is one of the signs that Mercury rules, so he is comfortable here. :) Some of us may be more sociable, chatty and communicative… it’s a good time to “argue” our point, although it’s just as easy to get distracted… ;) For those with strong Gemini, Sagittarius or Virgo chart influences, you may feel the affects of Mercury in Gemini more than the rest… :)

  • Be careful not to break tradition just because one feels like being different or as some may see it, “difficult” 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 be as easy now, so expect weird schedule’s and interrupted meetings…
  • Changes may be in the air…

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-off-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 off 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 off Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-off-Course moon… 

Good for Void-Off-Course Moon:

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

  • 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.

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life…Transiting Moon in Sagittarius April 2021

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

http://www.123rf.com: Copyright : KseniaTerenteva

  • Date: April 28 @ 11:42 am (ET) @ 8:2 am (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Sagittarius 
  • Moon Phase: 3rd
  • Void-of-Course: April 30 @ 9:27 am (ET) @ 6:27 am (PT) to moon into Capricorn a few hours later:  Moon v/c in Sagittarius is one of the 4 void of course  “good signs”.
  • Opportunity Period: April 29 @ 11:3 pm (ET) @ 8:42 pm (PT) until moon into Capricorn on the 30th. “The path is clear to setting lofty goals and sparking inspiration”

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.
    • The next few days may be positive for: Borrowing money, Buying a car, sending mail or starting a diet. 
    • 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 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, Venus and Jupiter.

NOTES: Pluto the Planet that rules Scorpio, is secretive, mystical and a little bit “off the wall” ;) He is powerful where ever he lands in your chart… Pluto is one of the slowest moving of the planets, he spends a lot of time in one sign and is therefor referred to as a “generational planet” as he affects a generation of people… :) On April 27 Pluto turns retrograde, he stays retrograde until the beginning of October… It is unlikely that a Pluto retrograde motion will affect anyone greatly, however, those with strong Pluto chart influences may find some life area’s a little more challenging for the next few months… The best way to handle any retrograde planetary influences is to “go with the flow” don’t expect miracles and be prepared to do things over again.. Patience is the key, the retrograde motion can be a blessing in a disguise. 


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…. :)

  • Moon Phase: 1st

What does it all mean?

  • The moon is happy in the sign of Cancer because the moon is the ruler of the sign Cancer.

  • Cooking may be fun to do now,  so go ahead and try out that new recipe
  • The more emotionally sensitive of us, may take offense or feel slighted or more vulnerable during the Cancer moon… Caution is advised though, check your facts before you “accuse”. 
  • Some of us may feel needy, while others of us are happy to be the needed, helping our loved ones feel secure. Caution is advised that some of us can go over board on the needy thing during this moon period, so be careful if you don’t want to “scare” someone off…

NOTES:  April 19th:

Shining blue neon zodiac Mercury symbol

Mercury, the planet of communication, transportation and technology, moves into the sign of Taurus: Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of money and love. Because Mercury is the “thinking planet” and Taurus can be slow on the uptake… some of us may experience times where we can’t get our thoughts connected to our mouth, tripping us up a bit when we try to express ourselves.. Others, may find some direction or instruction confusing, while others still, may have challenges when it comes to learning something new… This doesn’t mean we are “behind the times” , it just means we need to be patient with ourselves, and speak up when we don’t understand something… :) And those who have a quick mind may need to show patience towards the rest of us ;) Because Taurus is ruled by Venus, some folks can be more charming in speech and in general, which can give these folks a “leg up” when it comes to getting what they want. Watch for obsessive tendencies, and stubbornness.

Note 2: April 19:

Birthday happy smile greeting card. Vector birthday background 3d colorful character design

The Sun enters the sign of Taurus… (Both Mercury and the Sun are now in the same sign). Taurus as noted above, is ruled by the planet Venus, he is connected to the 2nd house of finances and material security. The Taurus Sun brings about common sense, a desire for comfort and most of all the feeling of security that comes with having our OWN stuff and people around us, including a secure, comfy and safe place to reside. Think of the Bull, as you think of the Taurus folk, the bull is strong, cautious in movement, and can be immoveable when the notion takes him, he can be steady and relied upon to do the tough work… ;)

Happy Birthday to all Taurus folk celebrating, we have had a very challenging 14 months with COVID, SGC folk therefor send out extra well wishes to all, and sincerely hope you have super duper birthday despite the times..
