Venus is the planet of money and beauty, she is the most feminine of the planets and is sometimes referred to as the “Goddess of Love” She rules Libra and Taurus.
Gemini is one of the mutable signs, multitasking, chatty and trendy.
Charm is at its peak, making it an opportune time to set about “selling” ourselves.
We can do well at work projects, persuading others to see things from our point of view.
We may have trendy ideas regarding our surroundings, or we may feel “crazy” enough to follow fashion and do something new and exciting to our personal appearance.
Some of us could be tempted to spend more on frivolous items or act in a superficial manner when socializing.
This astrological event will have a slight effect on everyone but will have a stronger effect on the those who have any of the following in their charts.
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.

What does it all mean?
Capricorn is business, duty and discipline. She is ruled by Saturn, the planet of restrictions.
We may be more in tune with our work/career or vocational direction.
Change may be more challenging to deal with, and we may be resistant towards it…
Being disciplined towards our “duties/chores” may be easier to achieve.
Dealings with the elderly may be in focus.
Dealings with “authority” types, such as teachers, principles, supervisor’s may be in focus. Being respectful of such positions may help to alleviate tension.
This could be a good time to get mundane business tasks out-of-the-way
If you have been waiting to get a “chaotic” situation under control, now may be a good time to do it.
Rules and regulations may be in focus, and depending on how you deal with these, it could be a favorable time or a stressful one.
Good time to watch, listen and learn
We may find we are looking at our “worth” now, including the salary we get paid.
We are happy to work for our “keep”, knowing we are doing a good job.
In the 4th house: Focus may be on the domestic front, we could be getting serious about renovations. Our family members may be more demanding, especially elder family members, who may need your guidance now.
This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. And those who have a strong Gemini or Cancer placing in their charts.
Astrological “Event”: Jupiter goes from retrograde to direct
Sign: Leo
Date (s): April 08 2015
House:11th house
What Does This All Mean:?
Jupiter is the planet of expansion and of luck. As he has been in retrograde motion for the last few months, the expansion in our life that we have expected, needed or desired may have been just within grasp but almost certainly out of reach. We may have had time to expand our ideas in a more secluded or personal manner, and we may have learnt to rely more on ourselves than on “luck”.
Now, as Jupiter turns direct, movement and action resulting in progress is once again possible. It’s time to take our ideas, notions, passions and excitement to the next level. Be open to opportunities and chance meetings, all of which can help to move us along our merry way.
Those who have a strong Jupiter influence may experience expansion in the personal life and in the physical sense.. these folk may have to watch the diet or come up with an enjoyable exercise routine. It is especially important for these guys to be open to opportunities within areas of interest, love, business, work, if they are in the process of a new beginning.
Transiting Jupiter in Leo in the 11th house: This could be a good time to spend with friends, pets and children, expansions in these areas are also possible. Joining teams, groups, doing volunteer or community work can be enjoyable and rewarding.
This transit will affect all of us, but will affect those with the following in their charts more.
