It isn't difficult to understand, but doing so takes practice and intentionally working with the Moon. From Full Moon to Full Moon or in a month's time, the Moon travels through all the astrological signs (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, etc). By visiting each astrological sign She effects our daily lives with the properties associated with that particular sign. Her visit may be for a day, one hour, two days - She's fickle.
The Void-of-Course Moon, this very important phase occurs when She travels from sign to sign. You may see it written VOC, V-C or V/C. Her attitude is such: She's quiet - She takes no calls - She completely ignores me and my wishes. And, She does it for as long as the trip make take - it's never the same. She hangs out the "Do Not Disturb" sign.
For some time now, I've noticed that those that do live their lives by the phases of the Moon, will tell you that the Moon is the sign of Libra - when I know for a fact that she has hung out the "Gone Fishing" sign and is preparing for Her visit in Scorpio. Irritating. You've not checked the calendar and taken that person's word and believed the Moon is in Libra and not intransit to Scorpio and you open your new business. Ooops. Besides, that's just sloppy crafting - you always check and validate.
Why is this so important. As I mentioned, Ms. Luna has clocked out. She ignores my wishes...She ignores my Spells...She ignores my candle magickal pleas. If I persist, my magickal pleas may not go according to plan. Let me rephrase that - they will not go according to plan.
I find it best to follow by Her example. I refuse (if at possible) to sign any new contracts - start any new ventures - schedule important appointments - make definite plans - purchase major items. As I'm writing this, I look up at my calendar and notice that yes, She will be V/C today (Monday) starting at 4:15pm CDT - traveling from her time spent in Cancer and preparing to spend Her time in Leo. She will be Void-of-Course all day Tuesday. I probably won't publish this blog until later today or maybe even tomorrow, allowing myself the time to edit and avoid the computer glitches now occurring. There are web sites that offers this information or purchase a calendar with the VOC times listed.
My point is...If I do any of the above during a VOC Moon - appointments can fall through the cracks - new contracts will falter in some fashion, new ventures will take an interesting twist and not go according to plan. "It's unavoidable!" you say. Well, do a protection spell around your next request or add a clause at the end of your spell that this spell will in no way come back to harm. Or...hold your breathe and hope for the best. Don't say you've not been warned.
The Void-of-Course Moon is the perfect time to take a step back and re-evaluate your plans; meditate, go into neutral, day dream, live your life or take this time to see what comes your way, or prepare what to plant next in your garden.
