Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

  • Date: March 5 @10:38 pm (ET) @7:38 pm (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Virgo
  • Moon Phase: 2nd
  • Void-off-Course:  March 8th @9:07 am(ET) @6:07am (PT) to moon in Libra about 1/2 an hour later.  Virgo Moon v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs” Try not to make any important decisions or commitments now.
  • 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 so needs things to be “correct” or “perfect”. If you are an employer, be prepared that tasks may not get completed exactly the way you had expected, be gentle and patient. 😊
  • The Moon in Virgo can be good for the following activities:
  • Break Habits (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Canning foods (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Fixing Cars:
  • Hair cut for less growth (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Mowing the lawn to retard growth (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter):
  • Sending Mail:
  • Starting a diet (Better if in the moon is in the 3rd or 4th quarter): 
  • 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 a strong Pisces placement in their charts..

NOTES:

Purim begins at Sundown on March 6th: 

Full Moon in 16 degrees Virgo occurs on Tuesday March 7th @ 7:40am (ET) @ 4:40am (PT). The full moon is a good time to finish up projects, and to end anything that is no longer serving… Sometimes this may mean relationships come to an end or change… such as friends moving away, leaving a job or finishing school. We can utilize the full moon to symbolically remove things or people from our lives which prove to more challenging than productive. Simply, grab pen and paper and jot down what it is that you would like to change in your life.  find a heat proof container big enough to catch the ashes, (like a big ashtray or bowl) light a candle… read your list, you can read it out loud or to yourself… once read, and digested, (your heart is connected to that which you wish to change) light the paper and let it burn, the ash symbolically takes your words and wishes (in the smoke) into the Universe and forever away from you. :) 

Saturn, the planet of discipline and restrictions visits with the sign of Pisces, on March 7th, @8:35 am(ET) 5:35 am(PT). Mercury is also visiting the sign of Pisces).  We could experience some set backs and disappointments when it comes to our dreams. Be prepared to change your plans, and to accept the responsibilities that come with any new projects or jobs. Our reality may be slightly off kilter and we could come up against some people, places and situations that demand we face what is needed to be faced. We may feel better equipped in same life area’s to finally push forward and make important changes in our personal lives, this may come as we are “awakened” to what is really going on around us, or we may see a person show their true colors. Keeping our expectations to a reasonable level will help us navigate what may be some stormy waters for some of us. This celestial event will affect those with Pisces, Capricorn, Virgo, Cancer chart influences the most, although we will feel the subtle affects of this event.

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 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… 

  • Cancer
  • Taurus
  • Sagittarius
  • Pisces…

Opportunity Periods  

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 & Astrology; how it affects our daily life: Transiting Moon In Leo March 2023

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

  • Date: March 3 @10″16 am (ET) @7:16 am (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Leo♌
  • Moon Phase: 2nd
  • Void-off-Course: March 5 @10:18pm (ET) @7:18pm (PT) to moon into Virgo a few hours later.  *Leo Moon* v/c is not one of the 4 “good signs”
  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • The Leo Moon Loves Drama, so be warned… 
  • The Leo Moon loves to be noticed and recognized, so be prepared to “pump up” your loved ones and if you happened to have a Leo influence in yourself, be aware of how you may be going about getting recognized or appreciated… If you play your cards right this could be a positive time when you get to be where you need to be.
  • Try not to be overly “vain” and be prepared for drama at any-time from any direction
  • 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 a negative or potentially explosive situation. 
  • 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. 
  • A great time to get things organized in the home and in the work place. You will feel 100% better… Leo loves to be organized. 
  • Might prove a good time for hair cuts and make overs. 

While this moon period will effect us all, those with the following chart influences will feel it the most: 

  • Moon in Leo
  • Sun in Leo
  • Moon in the 5th house
  • Aspects to the moon
  • Those who have Aquarius chart influences. *The sun moves into Aquarius on the 19th*

NOTES: 

  • Mercury entered the sign of Pisces on Thursday, March 2nd.
  • Mercury rules, communications, technology and transportation
  • Pisces is in Detriment in Mercury, this means her placement won’t be overly strong here, and her traits will be muted.
  • Pisces is ruled by Neptune, and connected to the 12th house. She is creative, imaginative, compassionate, she can be naïve, bend the truth, become the victim or martyr.
  • Mercury rules our thinking, so our thoughts may be more imaginative, undecided and easily swayed… Take time to think things  through before committing to any financial or long term goals. If you are feeling creative, let your imagination go wild, and embrace yourself in the “other world” it will be recharging your batteries.
  • Take care not to go down too many “rabbit holes” during this time, as the energy will be heavy to bear for some of us.. If you are prone to depression, it will be important that you make time to do the things that bring you joy, balance is encouraged.
  • Mercury will be visiting with Pisces until the 19th.
