Articles IndexMaking Progress - Astrologically Your Personal Moon Cycles | Musings on Moon Signs© 2003 Janet Booth, updated 2009Maybe it’s because I have Jupiter Retrograde in Taurus (translation: a planet of excesses requiring relearning of lessons about the love of the senses), but it seems like each time the Moon (the heavenly body in charge of eating and the stomach) passes by Jupiter in the sky, I overeat. Now I’ve decided I should mark my calendar so that when this occurs I can try to prevent endless repetition of this bad habit. Since anyone can have an urge to pig out when the Moon conjuncts Jupiter, I wanted to share this list with others. Here are those dates: (late 2009 through 2010): 12/21/09, 1/17-18/2010, 2/14 (watch out, chocaholics!), 3/14, 4/11, 5/9, 6/6, 7/3 (BBQ time!) 7/30, 8/26-27, 9/22-23, 10/19-20, 11/15-16, 12/13 and 1/10-11/2011,. It’s not a bad idea to be cautious the day before or after these dates, too. Visually, the Moon passing closeby big bright Jupiter is gorgeous to view in the night sky during those times of the year that Jupiter is visible at night star. And why stop at the Moon conjunct Jupiter? After spending a good deal of a Saturday purging my apartment of stuff that should have gone to the trash long ago - doing so with the help of the Moon going through Scorpio (the sign of getting rid of what’s no longer needed) - it occurred to me that you might want to know good times for that, too. I don’t get motivated to go through the piles very often, but I do try to make myself do it once a month when the Moon gives a push in that direction for a couple days. The dates from late 2009 through 2010 when the Moon enters Scorpio are: 12/11/09, 1/8/10, 2/4, 3/3, 3/31, 4/27, 5/24 (P) - 5/25 (E), 6/21, 7/18, 8/14, 9/11, 10/8, 11/4 (P) - 11/5 (E), 12/2 and 12/29. Our Moon list should include optimum times for something else Moon-related, too – habits. New habits are best begun just after a New Moon. The best New Moon each year for sticking to new habits is generally the Taurus New Moon. In 2010, that will be on 5/13. New Moon, Full Moon and Eclipse dates are listed in my Janet's Plan-its Calendars, or you can download my free 2010 On a Page pdf file. Eclipses are the strongest kind of New Moon and indicate periods for BIG changes. I hope you can make use of this information, and feel free to pass it along.
