The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life… Transiting Moon in Scorpio April 2015

&

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. 

Thanks to Jim Shawvan present day astrologer, William Lilly 17th century astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods.

  • Void-off-Course: April 7 @ 4:42 pm (PT) 1:42 pm (ET) to 1:08 am April 8 (ET) 10:08 pm April 7 (PT).
  • House(s): 1st & 2nd: Begins in 1st on 04/05 moves into the 2nd on 04/06: The 1st house relates to the self, indicating a preoccupation with anything to do with ourselves, ;). In the 2nd house we turn our focus to our finances and security.

What does it all mean?

  • Scorpio is very intense and probably the most sensitive of the zodiac signs
  • The moon relates to our emotions, indicating we could be feeling everything more deeply for the next couple of days
  • We can immerse ourselves in our projects now.
  • Watch for becoming obsessed with someone or something…. not everyone falls for someone at the same time and patience may be needed regarding sensitive relationship matters
  • Be sure that your partner, friend, lover, co-worker or school friend is really trying to upset your personal apple cart before making waves
  • We could be encouraged or directed towards taking risks or doing things we wouldn’t normally do, especially those of a group or team nature. 
  • 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 right now, while others get connected to their psychic side… 
  • Secrets may be told now… we can be enticed to open up to others about our deepest feelings/fantasy’s…
  • In the 1st house: Our personal desires and needs will be on our minds. We may be more selfish, so be careful around sensitive loved ones. Some of us may be more “needy” which can be off-putting to independent types. Be careful how you go after what you want, being mean or sneaky now to achieve it may come back to get you later.
  • In the 2nd house: This could prove to be a good time to look into investments, these include property investments as well as monetary ones. Financial mergers are possible now with better long-term results. If you have been wanting to beef up your residential or business property security, now is a good time, as you are more likely to find the information you are looking for. Keep in mind the Mercury Retrograde, be sure to check and double-check all paper work before signing.
  • While we will all be effected slightly by the Scorpio moon, she will have a greater effect on those who have the following in their charts.. and those who have a strong Aries or Taurus placement in their charts. 
    • Moon in Scorpio
    • Sun in Scorpio
    • Moon in Aquarius
    • Moon in the 1st house
    • Moon in the 2nd house
    • Moon in the 8th house
    • Moon in Cancer
    • Aspects to the Moon, the Sun or Pluto

  • We can be very determined now, so get those things done you have been putting off.. Time to put the shoulder to the wheel.

  • If you are a bargain hunter, get yourself out there, you could be a huge bargain magnet right now. 
  • Fabulous time to sort out the closets and get ourselves organized for the nicer weather…And if you are into setting up a yard sale you can start your pile now… :) 
  • It’s a good time to sit down and look over our finances and to set up a workable budget
  • Our finances may be high on the agenda now
  • This astrological “event” will affect everyone, but will have more of an effect on the following.

What does it Mean? 

  • Mercury is the planet of communications and technology, he is what makes us think.
  • Aries is all fire and action
  • Got excess energy or feeling restless, that’s Aries talking to you.. so get yourself out for a brisk walk or tackle that workout… for those who are unable to get up or out and about, try some fun and stimulating reading material or lose yourself in a good action movie.
  • This is a great time to speak up and get stuff off of our chests… be open to feed back though, we can learn just as much via our mental/verbal expression as we can through listening to what others have to say.
  • Don’t rush into anything, get the facts first before making judgement
  • We can think clearly now and if we let him logic will guide us without a hidden agenda.

  • Moon Phase: 2nd quarter

  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • The Leo Moon Loves Drama, so be warned… 
  • The Leo Moon loves to 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 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. 
  • Might prove positive for hair cuts, make overs. 
  • The moon in the 10th house may make us more aware of our work, vocation or passion, be prepared to put your back into it, however, keep any drama or bossiness to a minimum if you want to get noticed in the work place in a positive way.
  • In the 11th house:  This is the house of friendly behaviors and team work. It could be a good time to get some group activities up and running, or perhaps it’s an opportune time for some of us to get involved with a team sport. Again.. be aware of Leo’s desire to be noticed, work well with your team mates and you will get the positive recognition you may be looking for.
  • This moon period will affect everyone, but more so those who have the following in their charts: And those who have a strong Capricorn or Aquarius placement in their charts. 
    • Moon in Leo:
    • Sun in Leo:  
    • Moon in the 10th house:  
    • Moon in 11th house:
    • Aspects to the moon
    • Moon in Capricorn
    • Moon in Aquarius.

  • Date: March 26 2015 to March 28 2015
  • Moon Sign: Cancer at 3:45 pm (ET) 12:45 pm (PT)
  • Moon Phase: 1st 
  • Void-off-Course: March 28 @ 9:58 pm (ET) 6:58 pm (PT) to March 29 @ 1:48 am (ET) March 28 @ 10:48 pm (PT)
  • House(s): 9th & 10th: the 9th house of travel and higher knowledge: 10 house of This is our work, career, vocational house and our standing within the community.  
  • Opportunity Period: None

What does it all mean?

  • The moon is happy in the sign of Cancer because she rules here. Being sympathetic towards the worries of others is easier, we are more empathetic now. 
  • We can be more nurturing when there is a cancer moon
  • Domestic chores and responsibilities may be easier to do now, in fact some of us may be very happy making our home comfortable and safe
  • Cooking may be fun to do now,  so go ahead and try out that new recipe
  • The more emotionally sensitive of us, may take offense or feel slighted or more vulnerable during the Cancer moon… Caution is advised though, check your facts before you “accuse”. 
  • Some of us may feel needy, while others of us are happy to be the cuddler, helping our loved ones feel secure and in deed needed. Caution is advised that some of us can go over board on the needy thing during this moon period, so be careful if you don’t want to “scare” someone off… 
  • It’s a time for cuddles, caring, good food and just plain old lovings… :) Enjoy..
  • In the 9th house: Travel sounds good now and so does picking up a new study subject. Don’t get carried away though, if you can afford the travel go for it, if not you can always check out a cool video or do some research into your next travel spot. Concentration skills could be working well especially if we are learning about something we like.
  • In the 10th house: Focus on the career and getting ahead may be the making or breaking or our emotional selves now. Take care to be disciplined and you could go far in the work place. Accomplishments can happen in your working world now, but take care not to bring your work home… or else run the risk of creating unwanted stress in your domestic situation which in turn will add stress to your working world.
  • This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. And those who have a strong Sagittarius or Capricorn placing in their charts.
  • Moon in Cancer: (these folk may really feel the influence of the moon, emotions may be close to the surface)
  • Ascendant in Cancer:
  • Sun in Cancer:
  • Moon in the 4th, 9th or 10th house:
  • Aspects to the Moon:
