SGC Admin Moon Phase: Current Sun Sign:

Full Moon in Virgo March 16 2014:

Traditionally it is said that as the moon grows into her fullest form, it is the best time for us to finish up projects… It’s not the best time to begin a project as you may be presented with more challenges than usual indicting that project may get put on the shelf for a while. Our confidence may also be “shaken” as we try our hardest to get something new off of the ground only to find delays surfacing we hadn’t anticipated.

When the full moon falls in the sign of Virgo, we are most likely to focus on fixing and fussing and our health…. we may be more apt to see the little details we would normally miss… which could make this an ideal time to view detailed written work or contracts.. although as the full moon represents the closing or ending of things it may not be the best time to sign on the dotted line regarding new projects or commitments…. Cleaning up the house, garage, office or car are excellent activities for this full moon… And if the weather cooperates this can also be a good time to get outside and go for a long walk or run… feeling healthy or taking care of our health can also be prompted with this full moon… 

The effects of this full moon will be felt the strongest by those who have the following: Virgo Moon: Virgo Sun: Moon in the 6th house: Sun in the 6th house: Aspects and transits to the moon. 

** Please Note*** The moon went void off course at the same time it became full… it then moved into the sign of Libra at 8:46 pm… thanks to Hocuspocus13 for catching that… :)

New Moon in Pisces March 1 2014

New Moon in Pisces March 1 2014:

Traditionally it is said that as the Moon begins her journey towards renewal it is the best time to begin a new project. This may also stem true for entering into new studies, a new job, moving to a new location or beginning a relationship… It will depend on which zodiac sign the moon is visiting at the time. 

Pisces isn’t too keen on the harshness of this world, for some it is too difficult making it easy to become home bound, or rely on alcohol, recreational and prescription drugs to help get them through the rough spots… Pisces can also be compassion itself and may go to great lengths and sacrifice much to be of assistance to those less fortunate or help those dealing with addiction issues or mental health issues. (this goes for animals as well as people). Pisces can also be drawn to religion or spiritual ways. 

It is understandable then, that when the New Moon comes to visit with Pisces we can be drawn to helping others and we can also develop an appetite for spiritual/religious subjects and groups..  This full moon could be the time when you find that connection you have been looking for regarding such subjects. It’s a time for meditation, for healing and for connecting with the self on a deeper, compassionate and understanding level and it’s a time when we can forgive ourselves for our errors in judgement, if we are of such belief we may also pray for forgiveness for our self’s and others… It’s can be a good time, then to set aside the hurts of yesterday and begin again with clearer consciousness … 

However, we should also be aware of deception during this time, of being “hoodwinked” or led into situations and commitments we don’t fully understand. We may be more vulnerable during this time, we may trust more and we could be susceptible to emotional upsets.. 

Those most affected by this New Moon are those with the following in their natal and or progressed and transit charts. 

Moon in Pisces: Sun in Pisces: Mercury in Pisces: Aspects from Natal to progressed or transits.

There is an opportunity time one 1/2 hour before the moon becomes full and one 1/2 hour after the moon becomes full: (2:30 am to 3:30 am). It’s a good time to begin anything important connected to any project already begun before January 31.
