Moon transits - стр. 1

The transiting Moon has the ability to influence everyday events in a person’s life as it moves through all the signs of the Zodiac within a month (the Moon has the fastest speed compared to other planets). Thus, in about a month (approximately twenty-seven calendar days), it passes through all the planets in a person’s natal chart, triggering various events.

The lunar calendar provides the exact times when the Moon transitions from one sign to another. A lunar month can begin on any day of the calendar month.

When transiting through fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), the Moon brings a surge of energy. People become more active, aggressive, and prone to conflicts. Blood pressure, body temperature, and stomach acidity may increase (especially in those with existing health issues). Fires are more likely to occur on these days. It’s important to be cautious of burns.

When the Moon transits through earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), work of any kind—even the most mundane—gets done efficiently. Even those who typically avoid work feel inclined to be productive. These days are ideal for organizing things and affairs. People become more practical, logical, and rational.

When transiting through air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), the Moon makes people more active, mobile, and sociable. However, nervousness tends to increase during these periods.

When the Moon moves through water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), individuals become more relaxed and emotional. Delays are more common on these days. Memories, often unpleasant ones, resurface, and past grievances come to mind. Professional activity slows down. Vision may deteriorate temporarily, blood pressure might drop, and fatigue levels increase.

Moon transits are considered favorable in the first, third, sixth, seventh, tenth, and eleventh houses from the natal Moon.

The Moon stays in each sign for about two and a half days. It is never retrograde, forming cycles (a full cycle is 27 days).

In the sign of Taurus, the Moon is exalted, where it has the greatest potential.

In Cancer (its own sign), the Moon is slightly less strong than in Taurus but still retains significant strength.

In the signs of Gemini, Leo, and Virgo (friendly signs for the Moon), the Moon is less powerful than in its exaltation or own sign but still retains considerable strength.

Aries, Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces are neutral signs for the Moon, meaning it neither gains nor loses significant strength in these signs.

The sign of Scorpio is the Moon's sign of debilitation, where it has the least potential.

Unlike other planets, the Moon has no hostile signs.

The transiting Moon directly aspects the seventh house from its position.

When analyzing Moon transits, it is important to consider not only the sign it occupies and its ruler but also the aspects formed by other transiting planets and natal chart planets to the Moon. Special attention should be given to planets located near the transiting Moon.

In the natal chart, the Moon reflects how emotional, sensitive, vulnerable, and responsive a person is. As the transiting Moon moves through the signs, it influences our emotionality, sensitivity, and responsiveness, making us more or less expressive of these qualities. The stronger the Moon, the more pronounced these traits become.

A waxing Moon symbolizes growth, activity, expansion, initiation, creation, and acquisition.

A waning Moon represents letting go, reduced activity, completion, release, and expenditure of previously accumulated resources without acquiring new ones.

The days when the Moon is in Aries can be described as the most conflict-prone. An excess of energy creates conflicts and quarrels. People lose self-control, leading to emotional outbursts. It is beneficial to channel this energy into important tasks requiring activity and inspiration. During this time, individuals may complete a significant amount of work, only to feel exhausted afterward.
