  • Try not to over react and if it’s not you doing the over reacting, try not to get caught up in the drama, or to encourage the over reactor
  • It’s a good time to check out the local talent, take in a down town show, get starry-eyed with your lover, or perhaps look for a new one, as romance is high on the priority ladder during this time.

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-of-Course: 

There are times throughout the month when the moon is not 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…

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.

NOTE:

The New Moon occurs on February 27 @ 7:45 pm (ET) @4:45pm (PT) in the sign of Pisces, 09♓41.

The new moon in Pisces will “ramp up” the influence of this sensitive and sometimes naïve sign. Be open to “messages” but also be aware of deception.

Traditionally, the New Moon is said to be a good time to start something new, a project, a relationship, a job, school, change of career etc., It is wise to wait until you can actually see the tiny silver of the moon before beginning anything new

This New Moon’s influence will be felt more by those who have Pisces or Virgo birth chart influences. 


Friday, February 28th: Ramadan begins at Sundown. 


Saturday, March 1st: Venus in Aries goes retrograde.

Venus rules Libra (and Taurus). Aries is ruled by Mars. Libra and Aries are opposites.. Making this position not an especially strong one..

When a planet goes into retrograde motion, it’s “power” can be upset, sometimes to a chaotic degree, at other times the upset is so subtle it doesn’t become apparent until later…

The best way to travel the retrograde “train” is to just ride along with it.. try not to make any important decisions if it’s possible.

Venus turns direct after April 12th… 😊

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life… Transiting New Moon in Virgo September 2024

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House

  • Date: September 1 @ 11:48pm (ET) @ 8:48pm (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Virgo
  • Moon Quarter: 4th moves into the 1st on the 3rd
  • Void-of-Course: September 4th @12:06 pm(ET) @9:06 am(PT) to Moon in Libra later that afternoon.  Virgo Moon v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs”
  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • Virgo is all about the details, so be prepared to see to them or at least have someone else see to them for you.
  • Try not to worry about things you have no control over, especially things that might not ever happen… Because Virgo “see’s” all the details others miss, it’s hard for her not to worry… 
  • It’s good to keep busy during a Virgo moon, make lists, tidy, organize, plan, find solutions to problems… a lot can get done now
  • Virgo can be more critical than the rest of the zodiac, but only because she needs things to be “correct” or “perfect”. Try to give yourself and others a break over the next couple of days. If you are an employer, be prepared that tasks may not get completed exactly they way you had expected.
  • These next few days may be good for: Breaking bad habits: Fixing cars: 
  • This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
  • Moon in Virgo
  • Sun in Virgo
  • Ascendant in Virgo
  • Mid-heaven in Virgo
  • Moon in 6th house
  • Any aspects to the Moon or Mercury.
  • And those who have strong Pisces placement in their charts.. 

NOTES

  • September 1 Uranus goes retrograde: Uranus is the planet of shock and chaos… He rules the sign of Aquarius. When a planet goes retrograde, things can get a little muddled up, it’s possible that the “power” of Uranus will be muted somewhat under the Retrograde motion… However, because Uranus is unpredictable, the retrograde motion may cause some unexpected upsets. 
  • September 2 NEW MOON in Virgo @9:56 pm (ET) @6:56 pm(PT). A new moon is  good time to begin new projects, relationships, jobs, career’s moving to a better place…etc.. an auspicious time for back to school, University or College… Good Luck Everyone…  😊
  • Labour Day in Canada and the USA

  • We could be encouraged or directed towards taking risks or doing things we wouldn’t normally do.
  • Sex may be high on the agenda for some of us… so if you don’t want to help the world population grow right now use caution… :) 
  • Some of us may be highly creative, while others may connect with their psychic side… 
  • Secrets may be told now… we can be enticed to open up to others about our deepest feelings/fantasy’s…Take care with whom you share your secrets if you don’t want them “displayed” at a later date. Some folks may keep your information until it suits them to use it without your consent.

    • Ascendant in Scorpio
    • Mid-heaven in Scorpio
    • Moon in 8th house

    • Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Scorpio
    • Those who have a strong Taurus chart influence. 

The NEW MOON in Scorpio

November 13 @4:27 am (ET) @1:27 am (PT)

  • The new moon is traditionally the best time for beginnings.
  • The influences listed above will be stronger under a new moon… especially for those who have Scorpio or Taurus chart placings… 
  • When the moon renews herself in the sign of Scorpio, it’s a good idea to “be careful what we wish for” We are more passionate now and our emotions can get sometimes get the best of us.
  • Scorpio, has a connection to the “mysteries of the other world” She is intrigued by it… She will research it and sometimes embrace it…Not surprising that during a New Moon, we can learn about something or someone, that has had us mystified.
  • Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and connected to the 8th house. Her ancient ruler was Mars.
  • Scorpio is intense, everything she does she must feel “connected” to… This means that our emotions during this new moon will also be intense… Be sure that what you are feeling is real and not enhanced by the Scorpio moon..
  • If you have an idea or project you want to get off of the ground, the better day to begin would be on the 14th when the moon has moved into her first quarter.
