Moon transits

Preface

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.

About Moon Transits

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.

Moon Transit in Aries

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.

Work involving technology, metal, and fire progresses well during these days. Planned trips are likely to be successful. It is a good time to approach superiors, make an impression, and start tasks that need quick completion.

During this period, many people crave more meat. Those with high acidity should be cautious, as there may be a strong desire to consume spicy or salty foods.

Athletes should be careful as this is a period prone to injuries. However, exercising during these days can yield good results, provided one does not overexert themselves. There is also an increased risk of accidents and fires, so caution with sharp objects is advised. Surgical procedures on the head should be avoided.

Parental feelings intensify, and children become restless and highly active. They may lose their sense of danger and exhibit heightened curiosity about new things.

Waxing Moon in Aries: People who are indecisive may find it easier to be assertive during these days.

Waning Moon in Aries: Individuals become less serious and responsible, often reminiscing about their youth.

Full Moon in Aries: Anxiety and a sense of danger increase. People actively seek adventures that might lead to trouble.

New Moon in Aries: Any conflict during these days may have serious consequences. Quarreling partners may feel the urge to separate permanently, and married couples might view divorce as the only solution to their problems.

Moon Transit in Aries through the First House (Ascendant in Aries)

This is not the time to assert oneself forcefully, aim for leadership, tackle complex tasks, or engage in struggles. Intelligence, creativity, and self-control tend to be unstable, and one might lose self-restraint. There may be a craving for thrills. Avoid overburdening the mind or head. Headaches and intracranial pressure fluctuations are possible. Surgical procedures on the head and eyes are not recommended, nor is hair cutting.

When transiting the first house (head, appearance, character, inclinations, health), the Moon aspects the seventh house (marriage or business partner). The Moon governs your fourth house (overall happiness, emotions, mother, property, family, and vehicles).

Moon Transit in Aries through the Second House (Ascendant in Pisces)

This is a favorable time to focus on material aspects of life, make home purchases, and buy gifts for loved ones.

When transiting the second house (parents, family income, speech, nutrition, savings), the Moon aspects the eighth house (unexpected money and events, inheritance, partner's money, secrets, sexuality, and esotericism). The Moon governs your fifth house (creativity, romantic relationships, children, education, and hobbies).

Moon Transit in Aries through the Third House (Ascendant in Aquarius)

This is a good time for long-distance travel and negotiations. Spending time in nature will also be beneficial.

When transiting the third house (short trips, younger siblings, surroundings, neighbors, writing, art, and handmade creations), the Moon aspects the ninth house (long journeys, education, spiritual growth, father, guru, luck, dharma, courts, and laws). The Moon governs your sixth house (enemies, debts, illnesses, hard work, and cousins).

Moon Transit in Aries through the Fourth House (Ascendant in Capricorn)

This is a suitable time to strengthen financial stability, visit relatives, and organize the home.

This is a favorable period for making important decisions. Individuals become less impulsive, make fewer mistakes, and focus better on significant matters, allowing for successful outcomes. It is a good time to complete previously started but postponed tasks.

Treatment for the spine, tendons, and kidney stones is effective during these days.

When transiting the fourth house (emotions, overall happiness, mother, family, property, and vehicles), the Moon aspects the tenth house (work, career, and father's reputation). The Moon governs your seventh house (marriage or business partner).
