Maybe 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 I overeat each time the Moon (the heavenly body in charge of eating and the stomach) passes by Jupiter (the big exaggerator). 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 the dates for 2012: Jan. 2, Jan. 29-30, Feb. 26, Mar. 25, Apr. 22, May 19-20, June 16-17, July 14, Aug. 11, Sept. 7-8, Oct. 5, Nov, 1, Nov. 28, Dec. 25; and to get you ready for 2013: Jan. 21.

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.

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 in 2012 when the Moon is in Scorpio for 2+ days are: Jan. 16-18, Feb. 12-14, Mar. 11-12, Apr. 7-9, May 5-6, June 1-3, June 28-30, July 26-27, Aug. 22-23, Sept. 18-20, Oct. 16-17, Nov. 12-13 and Dec. 9-11; and to get you ready for 2013; Jan. 6-7.

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 2012, the Taurus New Moon is Apr 21.

New Moon, Full Moon and Eclipse dates are listed in my Janet's Plan-its Calendars, or you can download my free 2012 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. Please do quote me as the source and reference my website: www.AstrologyBooth.com.
