Now - since we're in a Void period, I'll tell you what that means:
Moon Void of Course
As the Moon orbits the Earth it passes through the signs of the zodiac. Every lunar month it travels through all twelve signs, passing through each sign in more than two, but less than three days. When the Moon gets near the end of each sign, it goes beyond its last major aspect, or connection, with another planet. From the time of the last major aspect until the Moon moves into the next sign of the zodiac, the Moon is said to be "Void of Course". This is a time when we can really feel unconnected and without direction. It is, therefore, an ideal time for centering ourselves.
The period while the Moon is void of course is really a time to "kick back," to let life flow, and to avoid difficulties. Judgement at this time is probably faulty. Decisions tend to be unrealistic and/or subject to unknown factors. New paths are likely to be plagued with false starts, errors, and unanticipated hassles and delays.
The important guideline for Moon void of course periods is to not be involved in concerns beyond your spiritual center. Moon void of course is a time for subjective, spiritual, non-materialistic concerns. Don't push the river!

Moon enters Sagittarius Sunday - Oct 14th at 2:58p EDT.
The Moon entered Sag today at 2:58p EDT and stays there until (wow) Tuesday at 8:32p.
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon passing through Sagittarius might bring an idealistic feeling, or a sense of discontinuity, restlessness, desire for sports and adventures, a love of change and motion, and the itch to travel. With Sagittarius being ruled by expansive Jupiter people will be warm and friendly and likely feel spontaneous, intuitive (even prophetic at times), and easily animated with a tendency toward superficial enthusiasm. However, they may also have a strong need for independence and feel unable to endure restrictions.
The Moon in Sagittarius brings a philosophical influence and stimulates our higher aspirations for self-improvement. It is a good time for intellectual affairs, for dealing with institutions of learning, or for promoting our ideas through publishing, lecturing, or similar activities of expression.
The Moon slipped into Capricorn at 3:03a EDT today, and remains there until Friday 10/19 at 4:33a.
Moon in Capricorn
While the Moon is in Capricorn the vibrations of Saturn are emphasized. It is a time of material ambition and an awareness of work and duty. In the search for status and financial security, people might become insensitive, even unsympathetically cruel, but from selfish necessity rather than animosity.
The Saturn influence of Capricorn causes pessimism or negativity to creep in. Generally, while the Moon is in Capricorn energy is sluggish. It is a time for diligently applying yourself to tasks while living solely in the present.
Capricorn rules the knees, teeth, bones, and skin.
Today at 12:52p EDT - the Moon moves into Aquarius and sits there until Sunday 10/21 at 3:36p.
We're almost completely through the zodiac - Pisces is next and then we start all over again.
Moon in Aquarius
While the Moon is traveling through Aquarius, public affairs become more important as there is an interest in the welfare of others in a social sense. People will tend to be very friendly but in an impersonal manner. Aquarius is ruled by Uranus which brings the desire for freedom and a love for the innovative and unconventional. People are now operating from intellectual rather than emotional motivations and will be searching for freedom in expressing their thoughts and their personal uniqueness. They will also be demanding the freedom to come and go without restrictions.
Aquarius rules the ankles, the circulation, the electrical forces in the body and the nervous system.
The Moon goes Void today at 3:36p EDT and then enters Pisces at 7:02p, where she remains until Tuesday the 23rd at 4:17p.
Moon in Pisces
Pisces is ruled by Neptune which brings an inclination toward psychic impressions. Imagination is strong when the Moon is in Pisces. There is a heightened sensitivity to music and other intangible forces. Tendencies are to be emotional, spiritual, and self-sacrificing. The Moon in Pisces adds a developing impressionability which can create feelings of vulnerability, drifting into withdrawal as an emotional protection. People may feel passive, sentimental, gentle, kind, and cheerful, but too easily discouraged. Some might experience stirrings of vague memories (often identified as past lives) or insights into the spiritual meaning of current situations during this time.
The Moon goes Void today at 4:17p EDT and enters Aries at 9:24p until 5:46p on Thurs 10/25.
The Sun enters Scorpio today at 3:16p EDT. Hot cha cha cha.
Ah - Full Moon in Taurus on Thursday night - I'd better get the fire ready.
Moon in Aries
When the Moon passes through Aries, which is ruled by Mars, people are highly enthusiastic. It is a period of ambition and energetic activity. It is a good time for beginning projects and for instigating change. Be aware that the desire for change will more likely be based upon impulse rather than reason. Watch out for temperamental flare-ups and selfishness ("I am" is the key phrase of Aries). With all this forceful energy, it is important to be mindful of the rights of others. Aries, which rules the head, is known for its headstrong behavior and while the Moon is in Aries people are more susceptible to head injuries.
The Moon entered Taurus last night at 9:07p EDT. It's a short visit this time, leaving in the wee small hours of Saturday 3:16a. Really - only Friday to enjoy this one.
Moon in Taurus
When the Moon moves into Taurus, the aggressive, charging Aries ram mellows into the solid, placid bull. Remember the term "bull-headed", as people will now tend to be very cautious and unchanging. Be aware of these tendencies toward stubbornness. There is a feeling that it is necessary to protect the status quo or what one already has (key phrase is "I have"). The need for financial and material security is strong. When the Moon is in Taurus take time to continue or conclude projects already started. Taurus is ruled by Venus, so this would be a good time to enjoy and appreciate the earthly beauty which surrounds us. Taurus rules the throat.
The Moon remains in Taurus until the wee small hours of Saturday. Then it is Void of Course, for 17 hours or more and enters Gemini at 8:11p on Saturday.
Seventeen hours of Void of Course!! Please look back in this thread and review what it is good to use that for. Great time for 'Personal Power' work.
Moon entered Gemini 11/24/07 @ 6:29a EDT and stays there until 11/26 @ 2:37a. At 6:07a that same morning, the Moon enters Cancer. Peace.

Gemini is ruled by Mercury which makes this a time for communication. It is a good time to write, take care of tasks which resemble mathematical puzzles, make speeches, or just let ideas fly through the clouds. Intellectual pursuits and mind games may become more prominent than practical concerns. People begin to feel restless and there is an inclination to rationalize emotions. A spontaneous tongue may hastily express things which are only true for the moment.
Gemini rules the lungs, arms, hands, and nervous system.
