The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life… Transiting Moon in Aquarius… January 2015: New Moon in Aquarius January 2015

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  (thanks to astrologer Jim Shawvan):

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 Jim Shawvan present day astrologer, William Lilly 17th century astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods.

  • It may be possible to find solutions to old issues relating to the home.

Oh where would the world be without the wonderful Aquarian? With their inventive minds and capacity for personal freedom and change, they assist with the evolution of the human species. 

You guys and gals catch on very quickly to the things you need to know, and while you can be a bit unconventional, unpredictable and some may say unreliable, it’s a different story when you get passionate about something or decide to sink your teeth into a project, watch out peeps, cos you won’t be able to change his/her mind and she/he will plow on ahead with focus and determination until the task is done or something else tickles the fancy…. ☺

The sun moves into the sign of Aquarius on January 20 2015 4:43 am (ET) 1:43 am (PT)

What does it all mean?

  • Capricorn is business, duty and discipline. She is ruled by Saturn, the planet of restrictions. 
  • We may be more in tune with our work/career or vocational direction. However hold off on making changes right now due to the Mercury Retrograde, which is in it’s “Storm” until the 21 when it turns Retrograde… Projects begun while Mercury is in “storm” or retrograde usually don’t work out the way one planned. 
  • Change may be more challenging to deal with, and we may be resistant towards it… 
  • Being disciplined towards our “duties/chores” may be easier to achieve. 
  • Dealings with the elderly may be in focus. 
  • Dealings with “authority” types, such as teachers, principles, supervisor’s may be in focus. Being respectful of such positions may help to alleviate tension. 
  • This could be a good time to get mundane business tasks out-of-the-way
  • If you have been waiting to get a “chaotic” situation under control, now may be a good time to do it. 
  • Rules and regulations may be in focus, and depending on how you deal with these, it could be a favorable time or a stressful one. 
  • Good time to watch, listen and learn
  • Future goals will be at the top of the list, so be prepared for extra hours spent at work. 
  • Domestic issues may have to take a “back seat” for a few days.
  • We could run into old school friends, or set up a reunion with siblings and old friends. 
  • Our day to day chores, trips to the gym, school, meetings, and time spent on the road may be in focus. 
  • We are happy to work for our “keep”, knowing we are doing a good job. 
  • This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
    • Moon in Capricorn
    • Sun in Capricorn

    • Moon in 10th house
    • Moon in the 3rd house

What does it mean?

  • Mars is the male planet, he is action and can be aggressive, he can be rash and selfish, but also work in heroic ways to help us move forward, speak up for ourselves and others and pushes us to experience new frontiers. He is the ruler of Aries and corresponds to the head, the blood and the muscles. 
  • Pisces is compassionate, psychic, sometimes naive and sometimes manipulative. She is ruled by Neptune, the planet of dreams. 
  • You might not get the recognition you may be looking for while Mars is here, but don’t give up, what you get done now, may well be good for you in the future. 
  • Going solo on work and vocational projects may work out better for us now. 
  • Be careful who you share knowledge with, especially if you aren’t planning on it going “public”.
  • This is a great influence under which to get caught up on any type of backlog at work or at home. 
  • This placing will have a slight effect on all of us, but will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts: 
    • Sun in Pisces:
    • Mars in Pisces:
    • Aspects to Neptune and Mars:
    • Mars in the 12th house.
    • Neptune in Aries
