Avoid Choosing Auspicious Days During "Void of Course" Moon

Whether you're getting married, starting a business, or moving to a new home, selecting an auspicious date is essential. Choosing the right time is believed to ensure smooth progress, a successful business, and a marriage filled with love and happiness. While every good day has its unique advantages, there are certain dates and times you should definitely avoid. In astrology, the "Void of Course Moon" is considered an inauspicious period.
Understanding the "Void of Course Moon"
As the Moon travels through a zodiac sign, it forms aspects with other moving planets. A "Void of Course Moon" occurs when the Moon, before exiting that sign, no longer forms any major aspects (conjunction, trine, square, sextile, opposition) with other planets. This void period can last anywhere from a few seconds to several days, based on the Moon's position and its interactions with other planets.
Activities initiated during the Void of Course Moon often fail to produce successful outcomes, may lack follow-through, or might not develop as expected. For instance, a business launched during this time might quickly go bankrupt; partnerships made during this period might ultimately dissolve; marriages begun during the Void of Course Moon might not turn out as anticipated; and meetings scheduled during this time may end up being canceled.
Activities to Avoid During the Void of Course Moon
According to the book "An Astrological Guide to Self-Awareness," it's best to steer clear of the following activities during the Void of Course Moon:
- Starting important meetings or discussions
- Launching projects
- Selling products
- Shopping (as it may lead to impulse purchases)
- Initiating new business contacts
- Starting a company
- Job hunting or starting a new job
- Signing important agreements or contracts
- Buying a car or a house
- Getting married or beginning a new romantic relationship
Activities Suitable for the Void of Course Moon
However, the Void of Course Moon isn't entirely without benefits—what matters is how you use this time. It's perfect for matters you wish to leave unresolved or hope will fade away. For example, if you need to submit a document and prefer no feedback or revisions from your supervisor, consider submitting it during the Void of Course Moon. Similarly, if someone complains about you during this time, the complaint is likely to be dismissed. Additionally, the Void of Course Moon is ideal for activities that foster relaxation and mental well-being, such as: taking a stroll, listening to music, resting, and engaging in meditation or contemplation.
