  • Some of us may be highly creative, while others may connect with their psychic side… 
  • Secrets may be told now… we can be enticed to open up to others about our deepest feelings/fantasy’s…Take care with whom you share your secrets if you don’t want them “displayed” at a later date. Some folks may keep your information until it suits them to use it without your consent.
  • 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
    • Ascendant in Scorpio

The NEW MOON in Scorpio

November 13 @4:27 am (ET) @1:27 am (PT)

  • The new moon is traditionally the best time for beginnings.
  • The influences listed above will be stronger under a new moon… especially for those who have Scorpio or Taurus chart placings… 
  • When the moon renews herself in the sign of Scorpio, it’s a good idea to “be careful what we wish for” We are more passionate now and our emotions can get sometimes get the best of us.
  • Scorpio, has a connection to the “mysteries of the other world” She is intrigued by it… She will research it and sometimes embrace it…Not surprising that during a New Moon, we can learn about something or someone, that has had us mystified.
  • Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and connected to the 8th house. Her ancient ruler was Mars.
  • Scorpio is intense, everything she does she must feel “connected” to… This means that our emotions during this new moon will also be intense… Be sure that what you are feeling is real and not enhanced by the Scorpio moon..
  • If you have an idea or project you want to get off of the ground, the better day to begin would be on the 14th when the moon has moved into her first quarter. 


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-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 

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.

  • Date: April 17 2023 @ 9:09pm (ET) @ 6:09pm (PT) 
  • Moon Sign: Aries 
  • Moon Phase: 4th.
  • Void-off-Course: April 19 @ 9:13 pm (PT) April 20 @ 12:13 am (ET). Moon v/c in Aries is not one of the 4 “good signs” Make sure you get all the facts before making any commitments..
  • Opportunity Period: None

  • The New Moon occurs in last degrees of Aries on April 19th @9:13 pm (PT) and on April 20th @12:13 am (ET). The influence of the Aries moon will be stronger during this time. Take extra care when driving, and if you suffer from headaches you may need to stay away from whatever triggers them for a day or two.
  • We can be more impatient than usual, so try and stay away from folk and situations that “push your buttons”.  
  • If you have extra energy or feel restless during this New Moon, try doing something physical (exercise, walking, or playing a sport). Pent up energy is likely to come out negatively if coupled with impatience.
  • The new moon is traditionally the time to start new projects, new business and new relationships.. it’s a time to move into that “first place”, to enter into the work force for the 1st time, change jobs or job responsibilities.. however, it is suggested we wait a day or two until the moon has settled into her new cycle. 
  • The Moon will move into the sign of Taurus on April 19 @ 9:30 pm (PT) on April 20 @ 12:30 am (ET). As it is so close in timing to the New Moon/Solar Eclipse event, it is possible that the Fire of Aries may be slightly tamed by the earth of Taurus… slowing things down a little bit.

Note Quote: “Top Astrological event of the week: Thursday (April 20 2023) New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries in square aspect with Pluto (in 0 degrees Aquarius): Rebel spirits will fight back against authoritarian control. Thanks to a loose sextile with Saturn, this is an excellent period to start building local structures and independent networks outside of the mainstream.” Michell Perrin-Llewellyn’s 2023 Daily Planetary Guide


What does it all mean?

  • Aries is action, he is the most masculine of the Zodiac signs, he is ruled by Mars (The God of War)
  • We may have more energy when the moon is in Aries
  • We are happy to defend our loved ones
  • We are apt to speak up, even those of us who consider ourselves to be “timid” can find our voice. 
  • May be a good time to get your message across, or to ask for what you need
  • Be careful when driving especially when upset or angry
  • We may be more susceptible to head injuries or head aches
  • We could be eager to start new projects
  • Be careful while engaging in physical activities, we may feel stronger or more “heroic” at the moment but our bodies might not be in the same “zone” :) 
  • We may be more decisive than usual, as always use caution 😎… 
  • Be careful about saying yes to everything right now, we might feel like we can handle more, but when the time comes we could be sorry we took on so much at once. 
  • Being healthy and feeling good so we can help others, or at the very least get our chores done, may be on the agenda for the next few days. .
  • Adults with a strong Mars or Aries influence may be acting more like children than adults. 😋
  • Some of us could be insensitive, or appear selfish to others.
  • The Moon in Aries will have a slight effect on all of us, but it will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts: Along with those who have a strong  Libra placement in their charts
    • Moon in Aries:
    • Sun in Aries:
    • Ascendant or Midheaven in Aries:
    • Mars in Aries:
    • Moon in the 1st:

We apologize to those of you, who may have received this post twice, Mercury may have gone direct, but he seems to still be “playing” ;)

  • Opportunity Period:  None

What does it all mean?

  • Aries is action, he is the most masculine of the Zodiac signs as he is ruled by the planet Mars
  • We should have slightly more get up and go when the moon is in Aries
  • We are happy to defend our loved ones
  • We are apt to speak up more, even those of us who consider themselves to be “timid” can find the voice they need right now. 
  • May be a good time to get your message across or to ask for what you need
  • Be careful when driving especially when upset or angry
  • We may be more susceptible to head injuries or head aches
  • We could be eager to start projects now, The moon is still rather full, and has not begun her waning period in earnest, it is probably better to work on projects recently begun, than to begin a brand new one right now. 
  • Be careful about while engaging in physical activities, we may feel stronger or more “heroic” at the moment but our bodies might not be in the same “zone” :) 
  • We may be more decisive than usual, as always use caution … 
  • Adults with a strong Mars or Aries influence may be acting more like children than adults. Take care not to rush into things, make rash decisions or quick judgements
  • Some of us could be more insensitive or appear more selfish to others.
  • If you aren’t looking to enlarge your family right now, take care, Aries has a lot of sexual energy to utilize… ;)
  • The Moon in Aries will have a slight effect on all of us, but it will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts: Along with those who have a strong Libra placement in their charts
    • Moon in Aries:
    • Sun in Aries:
    • Mars in Aries:
    • Moon in Libra 
    • Sun in Libra 
    • Aspects to the Moon or Mars:
    • Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Aries

  • Note: Pluto, the planet of death, sex, rejuvenation, destruction and what HAS to happen, turns direct on October 8th @5:56 pm (ET) @2:56 pm (PT). When a planet turns direct, it is still a little bit “wobbly”, meaning, that it doesn’t come fully back online until a few days have passed. When a planet is in retrograde motion, it usually means that as a species, we have the opportunity to look back, redirect our energy, fix some things, while letting other things go completely. It can also mean that in the area’s related to the planet may be slightly more fuzzy than we are used to. It can be challenging to see things clearly, or to accept some of the changes that are happening to us, our loved ones and to the environment around us. As Pluto turns direct again, it will be easier to see what must be done, what we must come to terms with, and the changes that we must accept in order for us to move on.
  • NOTE 2: October 9th, Sunday, sees our Lady become full in the sign of Aries, @4:55pm (ET) @1:55pm(PT). When the moon is full, it is said to be the best time to finish up projects, relationships, jobs, anything that can no longer “serve” us and which, we can no longer “serve”. With the energy of Aries, with his fire and “bravery” it can be a good time to move away from people and situations that have seem to drain our energy instead of compliment it. We can find that place within us, that prompts us to say NO, that prompts us to stand up for what we believe in. This wonderful energy, is also handy if we need to be getting something physical finished up, such as a DIY project, although Aries is not the best at completing projects, with a full moon at his back, it may be the push he needs… Happy High Energy Full Moon Everyone.
