  • Astrological “Event”: Pluto Turns Direct
  • Date: October 2 (PT) October 3 (ET) 2019
  • Time:  @ 11:39 pm (PT) @ 2:39 am (ET) 
  • Sign/House: Pluto is in the sign of  Capricorn in the 4th house. 

What Does This Mean…. ??? 

  • Pluto is the planet of Regeneration: Death: Destruction: Recycling: Sex and What has to happen: 
  • When Pluto is retrograde,  we tend to do some reassessment… looking back, reviewing and grieving. We begin to understand that what is lost is lost, but life must go on we can “see” how we have reacted to our losses in the past. Things that have been “hidden” may begin to bubble at the surface.Old wounds and past upsets may prompt wars and battles, resurfacing of old hurts promotes anger. This “coming back” to old issues and problems, no matter the pain or loss it may cause will continue to return at each Pluto retrograde until the issues have been resolved. 
  • When Pluto goes direct again as he is currently, we may well find we are “forced” or pushed towards making changes in our life. The reassessment we have been mulling over the past 5 months will need action. If we don’t act we will not resolve the issue and it will resurface when Pluto turns retrograde again. 
  • Capricorn is the sign of career, work and duty. She is “conservative” yet accepting. While she understands the importance of family she is more geared towards doing what she must, what is expected of her. Capricorn can connect with and to the older generation, she understands and respects what our elders have done for our future. 
  • With Pluto turning direct in the sign of Capricorn… Look for opportunities for promotion/raises in the work place. Be prepared for drastic changes in your job/career, keeping the chin up if it means you are without one for a while. If this happens keep a close eye out for the new job/career opportunity coming your way. 
  • This could be a good time to ask for a raise or let your employer know you are ready to take on more responsibility. 
  • If you have been waiting to make the move towards a new career direction, Pluto is ready to be assistance now. 
  • Be prepared for loss… Grieve, but know you must move on eventually
  • Partnerships and relationships may take on a new “look” … be open to changes in your partner. If a relationship appears “difficult” take the time out to find out why… perhaps it is time for a change(s). Be open to changes within your current relationships. 
  • Secrets and Desires will be at the surface… however, Capricorn is disciplined so hopefully we will allow her to discipline us to when and how and which secrets/desire are given attention. 
  • The 4th house: Some folk may experience sudden changes or progress in the home. This could mean a change of residence, a change in decor or plans being made for major renovations. “Out with the old and in with the new” … 
  • While we will all be affected to some degree as Pluto turns direct those with the following in their charts will be affected the most: 
    • Sun in Scorpio
    • Sun in Capricorn
    • Pluto in Scorpio
    • Pluto in Capricorn
    • Ascendant in Scorpio
    • Ascendant in Capricorn
    • Mid-heaven in Scorpio
    • Mid-heaven in Capricorn
    • Pluto in the 8th house
    • Pluto in the 4th house
    • Aspects from the Sun to Pluto
    • Transits Sun/Pluto
    • Aspects Moon/Pluto
    • Transits Moon/Pluto

The Moon and Astrology: How it affects our daily life… Transiting Moon in Scorpio (2) September 2019

Present Moon Sign/Phase/House:

Zodiac signs with women's faces- Scorpius Stock Photo - 24022483
http://www.123rf.com: Copyright : macchia
  • Date(s): September 30 @ 5:42 am (ET) @ 2:42 am (PT)
  • Moon Sign: Scorpio
  • Moon Phase: 1st
  • Void-of-Course: October 2 @ 5:46 am (ET) @ 2:46 am (PT) to Moon in Sagittarius a couple of hours later : Scorpio is NOT one of the “good” v/c signs.
  • House(s): 1st house: Of the self… one’s own needs and desires are in focus
  • Opportunity Period: None
  • ***September 30 is also the date of Rosh Hashana, beginning at sundown on Sept 29***

What does it all mean?

  • Scorpio is very intense and probably the most sensitive of the zodiac signs. She is ruled by Pluto now, but was once considered to be ruled by Mars… she likely retains some of the Martian influence. 
  • 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 needs and desires are at the top of the agenda, making this a challenging time for folk who are used to doing things their way as they may inadvertently upset others, or come across as being selfish. Being aware of how we speak to and deal with others is a good way of keeping any selfish streak under control. For those who are usually the ones who do all the giving, enjoy this time, and do something nice for yourself, you deserve it… :) 
  • 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..

    • Moon in Scorpio
    • Moon in Aries
    • Sun in Scorpio
    • Ascendant in Scorpio
    • Mid-heaven in Scorpio
    • Moon in 1st or 8th house
    • Aspects to the Moon, Mars or Pluto
    • Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Scorpio

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… The moon stays with each sign 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-off-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. 

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

  • Mercury and Venus move into the sign of Libra on Saturday 14thVenus remains in the Libra until October 4th and Mercury remains in Libra until October 8th
  • Mercury in Libra: This is a good time for negotiations and contracts… open convesations can strenghten any relationship… However, your competitors are ready to “pick your brains” hoping that you will reveal your ideas and stratagies, take care who you share your ideas with. When it comes to porfessional consultations, you can get good results… but check references first… 
  • Venus in Libra... Venus ruls Libra, so she is comfortable here… this is an excellent time to strengthen ties with those closest to you… If there have been challenges for you regrading a close personal relationship (this includes business relations too) use this time to try and resolve the issues… and even though you may not agree with everything, it is a good time to find solutions and common ground.
