The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life… Transiting Moon in Libra April 2024

 Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

  • Date: April 20 @11:08 pm (ET) @ 8:08 pm (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Libra  
  • Moon Phase: 2nd
  • Void-of-Course: April 22 @7:24pm (ET) @:24pm (PT) to moon into Scorpio a few hours later. Moon v/c in Libra is not one of the 4 void off course “good signs” Relationship issues may not go as planned, leave the planning until after the V.O.C moon… 
  • Opportunity Period: None

 What does it all mean?

  • Libra has a need for balance, indicating this moon period may be an ideal time to implement some into our daily lives. 
  • A desire for justice may be present, dealing with issues that have upset our sense of justice may prove to be productive. 
  • Diplomacy is likely to be more apparent during the next few days, and may be a good time to bring up that topic you have been putting on the back burner. 
  • Hesitation is probably going to raise its head, we may see many sides of a story and find it difficult to make up our minds. 
  • Difficulty in making commitments or long-term decisions, because we can’t make up our minds. If this is the case perhaps wait a few days until the moon has moved out of Libra. 
  • Libra is happiest when in a relationship or partnership. Indicating this may be a good time to begin one. 
  • Co-operation should be in the air, making this an ideal time to make plans with others. 
  • May be a good time to improve our appearance and surroundings. 
  • May be great time to go bargain hunting, 
  • The Moon in Libra can be good for the following activities:
  • Beauty Treatments:
  • Buying Clothes:
  • Buying for speculation:
  • Collecting on debts:
  • Entertaining Guests:
  • Joining a club: 
  • This moon sign will affect us all but will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. Along with those who have strong Aries chart influences. 
      • **Moon in Libra,
      • **Sun in Libra,
      • **Venus in Libra
      • **Moon in 7th house,
      • **Any aspects to the Moon or Venus
      • **Midheaven in Libra
      • **Ascendant in Libra

  •  NOTES:  “Happy 4/20 Day” 

 

  • Saturday April 20th @ 10:27 pm(ET) @7:27 pm(PT) Jupiter in Taurus conjuncts Uranus in Taurus. 
  • Jupiter (planet of expansion) rules Sagittarius he is connected to the 9th house of higher knowledge, new experiences and travel.
  • Uranus (planet of change and chaos) rules Aquarius, he is connected to the 11th house of teamwork, charity, organizations and kindred spirits. 
  • A conjunction is a “neutral” aspect, it is neither positive or negative…
  • It takes approximately 14 years for the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction to occur. 
  • Jupiter and Uranus are outer planets, they are further away and slower moving than the moon, mercury, mars and Venus. The influence of the aspect is slow growing and long lasting and will have a generational impact… Because the conjunction happens in the “chart of the moment” in the 6th house, the impact on a generational/global level is most likely to occur in the area’s of HEALTH and WORK in the service industries... Will there be a welcomed DRASTIC and UNEXPECTED change in these area’s? With Jupiter in the mix, could it be a POSITIVE change for us all… :) 
  • On a personal level those with the following chart placements are likely to be “affected” the most: Taurus: Sagittarius: Aquarius. 
  • Watch for: Opportunities for growth, to learn, to explore, for travel and expansion in whatever area of life in your chart this connection happens for you (for me it will happen in my 11th house). Because Taurus is well connected to our financial and material security, growth or sudden changes can happen in these area’s, hopefully, mostly in a positive way, however, the transition may be frightening in the beginning. 
  • This is a slow moving transit... we may not see the opportunities in the very beginning… Jupiter is a very positive planet, full of laughter and ready to explore… However, that can sometimes mean that we go over board or push the boundaries to the very limit… and with Uranus in the mix, it could see some of us trying things we never thought we would try… the sky is the limit… Just take care not to go jumping in with both feet, always keep one foot firmly on the ground, Taurus, if you listen to her, will help that to happen. 

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…

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 Aquarius.. March 2024

Whoops, first posting didn’t post correctly… sorry guys… ;) 

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

Copyright : Natalia Hubbert

  • Date: March 6 @7:38pm (ET) @4:38(PT)
  • Moon Sign: Aquarius 
  • Moon Quarter: 4th
  • Void-of-Course: March 8 @1:56pm(ET) @10:56am(PT)  Aquarius Moon v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs” Try not to make any important decisions or commitments now. 
  • Opportunity Period: March 8th @3:50am(ET) 12:50am (PT) “A friendly Friday morning to socialize and spend time with others” PB

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”. 
  • 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: 

03/07: Throughout the day, the moon forms a square with Jupiter in Taurus, a sextile with Chiron in Aries and a conjunction with Mars in Aquarius. Squares are challenging, and can force one into action. And while no one takes pleasure in challenging times, sometimes it is during these times that our best growth can occur. Sextiles are positive, and help us to see the joy in life, they are more helpful, then forceful, and sometimes need a nudge to assist with change.. Conjunctions can go either way, they are sort of neutral, depending on the circumstances.

03/08: Throughout the day, the moon is still in sextile with Chiron, still in conjunction to Mars,  and has now also formed a square with Uranus in Taurus. (Uranus rules Aquarius, making this a stronger influence) and later in the afternoon forms a conjunction with Venus  in Aquarius. Mercury in Pisces, (the sun is also currently in Pisces) conjuncts Neptune in Pisces, (Neptune rules Pisces)

Dawn James: Cost Rica Lemons :) Dawn James Retreats.

Hey Friend,While North America celebrates the Summers season, the Green season begins in Costa Rica marked by afternoon showers 2-3 times a week. Farmers love the green season because it’s the perfect blend of morning sunshine and afternoon precipitation and plants seem to grow a few inches overnight!I wanted to share with you some interesting fruits I have discovered that seem to break Nature’s rules whether it’s how the fruit is grown, the colour, or even the taste.Enjoy this 4-part seriesA lemon that does not taste like a lemon
It is rare to see yellow lemons in the grocery store so when I finally saw some after 4 years of living without my warm lemon tea with ginger, I was ecstatic! I bought 6 yellow lemons. As soon as I got home, I put on a kettle, got my favourite tea cup and sliced that beautiful yellow lemon. I placed some grated ginger in the cup, poured my hot water and squeezed both lemon halves into the cup.With my eyes closed, I raised the cup to my lips and sipped.WHAT THE HECK?
It tasted like honey water. The mixture was sweet. I could not believe it.With a frown of disappointment, I placed the cut lemon to my lips and sure enough it was sweet.The next day I marched to the grocery store with 5 lemons in hand. I asked the clerk, are these lemons?Si,limón dulce he replied ( which means sweet lemon)Well, I never knew these existed! That was the first and last time I bought sweet lemons.By the way, I have yet to drink my warm lemon tea with ginger.Up next: the fruit you thought was a nut!

NOTES:

Sunday February 23rd:

Mars goes direct @9:00 pm (ET) @6:00 pm (PT).  When any planet changes direction, it can cause upset… and with Mars being Mr. Aggressive of the planet world, our patience might not be as solid as usual… Mars going direct will clear our minds, and help us to move ahead or make decisions… take care though, as some of us could be tempted to rush into things, or make rash choices, later regretted.
