What is Moon v/c?

The Moon moves through all 12 Zodiac signs every 28 days. One sign every 2 1/2 days. The Moon is void once she has finished forming aspects to other planets. The void period ends when the Moon enters a new sign. It can last as little as a few seconds or more than two days.

What happens during Moon v/c?

First, it’s not a terrible thing! So do not moan and gnash your teeth about it. It happens every 2-3 days. If you can read this, then you have survived it thousands of times. It’s not worth moaning about, but it is worth knowing about.

While the Moon is void, our energies dissipate easily, and we tend to feel more spacey and disconnected. Stick to routine tasks. It is not advisable to initiate important conversations, make major changes, decisions, purchases, or announcements while the Moon is v/c.

Void of course = off course. It’s like the train has left the tracks— and it will tend to go in the same direction and back onto the right track if you just leave it be. But if you push it in any way, it can go off the tracks and end up on another track, one you didn’t intend. Typically, you have little power to influence which track your boxcar ends up on (no steering mechanism). So take a “time out” from the bigger decisions, and stick to routine during Moon v/c periods.

If you’re tricky, you can use the Moon v/c period to make plans that you don’t really want to keep.

How do I know when the Moon is void of course?

A good astrological calendar will have that info. My favorite are the Celestial Guide calendars from Quicksilver Productions. You can get a wall calendar, pocket sized calendar, or spiral bound weekly planner. My forecast calendars also include Moon v/c info.

I recently found a free Moon v/c calendar for iCal here: Check this out! If you know of any other good tools, let me know and I’ll post links here.
