Moonsigns
Today: February 20, 2009
Waning moon in Capricorn. Good for removing unwanted items from the home or grounds. Also, for reviewing what you want to do with your garden. If you are wrangling with authority figures, subtlety goes out the window. Speak plainly. Capricorn, don’t overextend yourself, especially for those who are capable of fixing their own situations.

Finish, finish, finish — especially those of you who are air signs. Strange new ideas get traction all month. Throw things out, particularly if you’re an earth sign; you folks are so acquisitive, it takes great effort for any kind of discarding activity. And if you need entertainment, visit apod.nasa.gov/apod for the picture of the day. This is the one astronomy site I visit over and over for inspiration in this craft and the art I create. Amazing patterns here for graphic-arts folks and weavers (both of whom get special focus Thursday through Tuesday).

About MoonSigns
This horoscope traces the passage of the moon, not the sun. Simply read from day to day to watch the moon’s influence as it moves through the signs of the zodiac.
When the moon is in your sun sign (e.g., you’re a Taurus and the moon is in Taurus), you are beginning a new 28-day emotional cycle. Expect increased insight and emotional responses during this two day period. The moon changes sign approximately every 2.5 days, so it’s influence is intense, but ultimately brief. Now, when the moon is in the sign opposite your sun sign, expect some ups and downs. Here are the oppositions: Aries, Libra. Taurus, Scorpio. Gemini, Sagittarius. Cancer, Capricorn. Leo, Aquarius and Virgo, Pisces.
As the moon between signs, it will sometimes become "void of course," and make no major angles to planets. Consider this a null time and try to avoid decision-making or implementing decisions if you can. It is an excellent period for creativity, unexpected encounters, and quirky outcomes.
