"As the Moon orbits the Earth,
it passes through the signs of the zodiac. Every lunar month it travels through all twelve
signs, passing through each in more than two, but less than three days. When the Moon gets
near the end of each sign, it goes beyond its last major aspect, or connection, with
another planet. When this happens, and until it moves into the next sign, the Moon is said
to be 'Void-of-Course.' This period is a time when we can really feel
unconnected and without direction. It is, therefore, an ideal time for centering
ourselves.""The void-of-course condition may occur for only seconds
or minutes of time or it may last for a day or two. It all depends on the locations of the
planets and their interactions at the time."
"While the Moon is void-of-course (v/c) it is wise to avoid making
important decisions. Judgment at this time is probably faulty. Decisions tend to be
unrealistic, subject to factors unknown at the time. New paths are likely to be plagued
with false starts, errors and unexpected hassles."
"During Moon void-of-course, actions produce unexpected results. Creative
efforts go in unexpected directions. Contracts, promises or new laws bring on
difficulties. Purchases prove to be unsatisfactory or the object simply does not fulfill
its intention. Routines involving no decisions will usually go well but often require
corrections later. Delays and frustrations are common. Moon void-of-course is a time to
'kick back,' let life flow and avoid difficulties."
"Presidential candidates Dewey, Nixon (vs. Kennedy), Goldwater, and
McGovern were all nominated while the Moon was void-of-course. Nixon was elected in 1972
while the Moon was void-of-course. And President Ford was sworn in with the Moon void-of-course."
"The important guideline for Moon void-of-course periods is to not be
involved in concerns beyond your spiritual center. Moon void-of-course is a time for
subjective, spiritual, non-materialistic concerns."
"Once the Moon enters the next sign, if we have taken time off from
business to give attention to relaxation and to our spiritual growth, then we can more
effectively go back to dealing with the affairs of the day-to-day material world."
