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 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… 
  • 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.

  • Venus is the planet of love and money, she rules Taurus♉  and Libra♎ . 
  • Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, some say that Pisces folks carry with them a remnant of all of the zodiac signs. Pisces is compassion and duality. 
  • We may be feeling more compassionate within our relationships, we may also be open to more deception regarding the relationships that are closest to us.
  • We want to help, we want to please, we want everyone to be happy and carefree… or we may be expecting others to take care of us, do as we want or believe that we need.
  • When it comes to money, we can be frugal or a spender, especially if it’s on pretty things for our loved ones… Pieces of art and home décor may also “call to us” during this time.
  • If it’s in the budget, why not go ahead and spend a bit, however, be sensible if it’s not the budget. Pisces is capable to being budget conscience, which means that this could be a good time for bargain hunting. 
  • While Venus in Pisces will affect all of us, those with the following in their birth charts are bound to feel the affects the most: 
  • Venus in Pisces
  • Sun in Pisces 
  • Venus in the 12th house
  • Sun in Libra
  • Sun in Taurus

    • It’s easier to try something new and exciting just take care not to get carried away.
