  • Date: October 9 @4:11am(ET) @1:11am(PT)
  • Moon Sign: Libra 
  • New Moon on Saturday October 10:
  • Moon Phase: 4th. Moves into the 1st on October 11:
  • Void-off-Course: October 10 @ 7.07 pm (ET) 4.07 pm (PT) 

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 move 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, 
  • This moon sign will affect us all but will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
    • Moon in Libra,
    • Sun in Libra,
    • Venus in Libra
    • Moon in 7th house,
    • Any aspects to the Moon or Venus
    • Any Aries/Mars chart influences

NEW MOON…

October 10 @11:50 am (ET) @8:50 am (PT)

The new moon will increase the influences listed above.

  • Traditionally the New Moon is said to be the best time to begin any new projects, relationships or jobs…

  • New relationships could be formed now, along with new business partnerships being formed. This is good news, in today’s sometimes bleak outlook. However, jumping head first into anything new that involves emotional/financial commitment is not recommended. If something feels off, take note, if the guy or gal seems “out of this world” he/she may well be. 😁

  • Venus went into retrograde motion on October the 3rd, in the sign of Scorpio. Venus will remain in retrograde until November 13 ending up in the sign of Libra, as she backs into that sign towards the end of October.

  • Venus rules Libra., due to Venus’s retrograde motion,  and because this combination represents relationships and partnerships, this particular New Moon may not be the best time to commit oneself regarding new relationships/partnerships.

  • Going “backwards” means going over things that have already occurred. Sometimes, we aren’t aware that things have occurred, or we may have missed an opportunity. The retrograde motion gives us a chance to learn from past “mistakes”, to correct negative behaviour patterns, to have an honest look at ourselves, and in this instance, how our behaviours prop up or deter our daily relationships/partnerships .

  • Retrograde Venus is visiting with the sign Scorpio during this New Moon, Scorpio is very intense, secretive and can be jealous. It would be wise to take care in our daily interactions under this new moon’s energy. 


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  (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. astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods.

  • Moon is in the 4th quarter.
  • Moon void of course: May 16 @ 9:02 pm(ET) @ 6:02 pm(PT)
  • Opportunity Period: None
  • Click Here to see our past post of the NEW  moon in Taurus. 

NOTES: 

  • 1) Aspects: May 15: Moon squares Pluto in Aquarius (early morning). 
  • 2) Aspects: May 16: Moon sextiles Jupiter in Cancer (morning). Mars in Aries conjuncts Chiron in Aries (afternoon). Moon conjuncts Sun in Taurus (afternoon). Moon conjuncts Mercury in Taurus (late night). 
  • 3) NEW MOON in TAURUSon May 16th @ 4:01pm (ET) @ 1:01pm (PT). All of the Taurus traits will be amplified during the New Moon. The New Moon is said to be the best time to begin any new projects jobs or relationships. Happy New Moon everyone.. :) 

Aspects and how they affect our daily lives:

  • Conjunctions: Variable, they can present either positive or challenging events/situations and people depending on the signs and planets involved
  • Quincunx:         Challenging, they can create frustrations regarding dealings with people, events or situations… the “actors” involved do not share any similarities. 
  • Opposition:      Challenging, as the “actors” are at odds with each other, but with a little work and patience compromises can be made
  • Squares:             Challenging, due to friction between the “actors” involved, however, friction can bring about needed change… while frustrating these little guys, can help us to grow. 
  • Sextile:               Positive, the “actors” involved are happy to be together and more then happy to work together, good things are possible
  • Trine:                  Positive, good for chilling out, and relaxing, these guys are also happy to be together, but neither one may have the motivation to do anything, so it’s possible that nothing constructive will get done with these guys in play. 
  • All planetary movement will affect those who have such active players (planets/signs) in their birth charts, the rest of us may feel the affects too, but to a lessor extent. However, those with opposite sign placements may also be affected by such movements, to lessor extent, but perhaps more then those who have no such personal chart placements.

NOTES

  • 1) May 5th:Cinco De Mayo: Celebrating a battle in the 1800’s between the French and Mexico. 
  • 2) May 6th: Pluto (Planet of death, destruction and regeneration) moves into retrograde motion. He will remain in retrograde motion until mid October. Pluto is an outer planet, so his influence is less intrusive, but it’s still there. He is in charge of change and what has to happen, he is connected to addictions, power and control. When he goes retrograde, he is giving us a chance to make some changes in our life for the better of our future.. A time to let go of some people, and situations that are only causing us heart ache, at the very least, they are holding us back from our best potential. This can be a good time to give up addictions/obsessions. If some one is over powering you, controlling your life, you may be able to move away from that person/situation. However, take note, if you are the one who is controlling  or using your position of power to undermine others, don’t be surprised if your ability to do so is suddenly taken away.

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life: Transiting Moon/Sign Changes: April 19 to May 16 2026 Full Moon & New Moon Dates.

 

From the New Moon phase to the Full Moon phase, roughly a two week period, and then from the Full Moon phase to the New Moon phase, I will be posting the moon sign’s for that two week period  with links to past post’s, for explanations of the Moon’s position. We may repost this “list” throughout the month, in between other posts, such as “Inspirational Words” posts.

The post for the next 4 week period begins on April 19 and Ends on May 16 2026

Notes: 

  • 1) The Sun moves into the sign of Taurus April 19th
  • 2) Earth Day is on April 22nd
  • 3) Full Moon is on Friday May 1st in the sign of Scorpio
  • 4) Beltane/May Day is on May 1st
  • 5) Cinco De Mayo is on May 5th
  • Mother’s Day is on Sunday May 10th

 

  • The Sun enters into the sign of Taurus @9:39 pm (ET) @6:39 pm (PT) on April 19th: Taurus is ruled by Venus and is connected to the 2nd house of finances. She is sensual, patient and concerned about personal security, comfort and finances. Much of the time her sense of security is linked to her finances, and assets, such as owning her own home. She can be stubborn, and there isn’t much hope of shifting her once her mind is made up. While she has tons of patience, she has a limit, it is best not to take her for granted for too long. Speed isn’t her strong point, particularly when it comes to academics, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t smart, it takes her a bit longer because she is determined to understand.
  • We appreciate our Taurus brother and sister’s Happy Birthday Guys… Enjoy your special days, we wish you all a good year ahead. 🎂🍨🍻🍹

 

 


The moon will be full on Friday May the 1st… She visit’s with Scorpio, perhaps the most sensitive of the water signs.

As the days get closer to the Full Moon, we may experience difficulty sleeping, or staying asleep, we may feel anxious and on the defensive… Perhaps our tolerance level isn’t quite up to snuff…

These sensations can begin a day or two before the actual Full Moon event. 

Being aware of such emotions/sensations is 1/2 the battle towards dealing with them in a more positive way.

This can be a good time to give up addictions/obsessions. If some one is over powering you, controlling your life, you may be able to move away from that person/situation. However, take note, if you are the one who is controlling  or using your position of power to undermine others, don’t be surprised if your ability to do so is suddenly taken away.

Aspects and how they affect our daily lives:

  • Conjunctions: Variable, they can present either positive or challenging events/situations and people depending on the signs and planets involved
  • Quincunx: Challenging, they can create frustrations regarding dealings with people, events or situations… the “actors” involved do not share any similarities. 
  • Opposition: Challenging, as the “actors” are at odds with each other, but with a little work and patience compromises can be made
  • Squares: Challenging, due to friction between the “actors” involved, however, friction can bring about needed change… while frustrating these little guys, can help us to grow. 
  • Sextile: Positive, the “actors” involved are happy to be together and more then happy to work together, good things are possible
  • Trine: Positive, good for chilling out, and relaxing, these guys are also happy to be together, but neither one may have the motivation to do anything, so it’s possible that nothing constructive will get done with these guys in play. 
  • All planetary movement, will affect those who have such active players (planets/signs) in their birth charts, the rest of us may feel the affects too, but to a lessor extent. However, those with opposite sign placements may also be affected by such movements, to lessor extent, but perhaps more then those who have no such personal chart placements.
