Moon Magic: Moon Void of Course

A void of course moon means that the transiting moon is not making any aspect to surrounding planets. The moon is literally between planets or signs. The energy of the moon is disconnected. It can be seconds, minutes, hours, or even a day.

When the moon is void of course it is a cosmic time out. You should not do any spell work when the moon is void of course. It is also not a good time to enter into any contracts or large projects or business dealings.

It is a great time to rest and recharge. Reflect and meditate.

Feed your soul.

Do some introspection.

Things can seem off and more difficult when the moon is void of course.

Historical Perspectives

The concept of a Void of Course Moon dates back to Hellenistic astrology, a tradition that has roots in the Mediterranean region. This concept has been refined and reinterpreted across various astrological traditions and remains an important consideration for both Vedic and Western astrologers.

The Void-of-Course Moon in the Zodiac Signs:

The Zodiac sign is defined by the sign that the moon is transitioning into.

Aries: AVOID starting new things. I know, I know. Yes, Aries energy “loves” to start new things, but wait until the moon is fulling in Aries. Your gut instinct may be hinky. When the moon is fully an Aries moon, you are free to start all those new projects and ideas you have been chomping at the bit to begin.

Taurus: AVOID dealing with money, hosting a dinner party, or updating your look. Your perspective of what makes things so special and timeless will be askew. When the moon is fully in Taurus, your investments will again be prosperous, your impeccable taste will be on point, and your parties will be epic.

Gemini: AVOID presenting your ideas to others, networking with next-tier targets, and even writing something important for public consumption. Instead, journal — and do it in a notebook. Because even tech won’t be your friend during the void moon. Just hold on until the moon is fully into Gemini then you can be your normal chatty Kathy.

Cancer: AVOID settling emotional situations with loved ones. It’s not the time to invest in family matters, bear your soul, redecorate your home, or even have people over. Use the void of course for some phenomenal self-care. When the moon is fulling in Cancer you can return to be the caretaker you were born to be.

Leo: AVOID performing. I know that is asking a lot. You’re a creative. You perform. But while the moon is void of course you will just be attracting the wrong kind of attention. The spotlight will be on the flaws rather than your natural talent.

Virgo: AVOID healing. Again, I know. You’re a healer at your core. So, the more selfless you are with your gifts and acts of service during this void moon, the more misinterpreted your powers will be. In fact, maybe don’t even go to the doctor yourself at this time. Turn the organizational gifts of the Virgo moon to quietly organizing your feelings.

Libra, AVOID mediating, debating, negotiating, and anything legal! Wait until the moon is completely in the sign of Libra to do these great things. In the meantime, don’t do any type of networking, just leave relationships as they are. While the moon is void of course you can journal or create a vision board about your networking goals.

Scorpio, AVOID any type of accounting, such as, doing your taxes, bookkeeping, etc. The numbers are going to be wonky and are going to make even less sense than normal. Research is another area to avoid during Scorpio void of course. While Scorpio loves to dig deep, during this time the truth uncovered could be confused. Instead dive into another area Scorpio loves and do something sexy.

Sagittarius, AVOID traveling, booking travel, or planning travel. Especially if that travel involves something spiritual. Wait for the moon to be fulling in Sagittarius. The you can plan all the things and they will result in deeper connections.

Capricorn, AVOID making business decisions such as hiring, firing, training, or even meeting with the team you’ve assembled to help you run your business. Instead, while waiting for the moon to fully come into Capricorn tidy up any lose ends on any business that is technically already done. Do those last finishing steps on your own.

Aquarius, AVOID spiritually enriching activities, group functions, and brainstorming of any kind. Yes, these are all great things to do when the moon is fully in Aquarius and no longer void of course, but ’til then, take to your journal, visit a cat café, go for a walk, or… you guessed it… nap!

Pisces, AVOID giving advice. During the void of course your intuition will be off. Once the moon is full in Pisces your gut will be at it’s prime and you will be back to giving the best intuitive advice ever.
