Hi all Maybe this will help, maybe it won't. It's from one of my fave books, "Secrets from a Stargazer's Notebooks." The author is first quoting Al H. Morrison:
"Every couple of days comes a time which is best used for subjective, spiritual non-material concerns, like prayer, yoga, play, meditation...It begins when the Moon in transit makes the last major aspect it will make before it changes from one sign to the next. It ends when the Moon enters the next sign. This is called Void-of-course-Moon. You may call it silly season, or vacation from normal living.
Decision making in such periods turns out later unrealistic. Creativity diverges into unplanned directions, improvisations, false starts, errors. Business moves fail to generate profits or meet unexpected difficulties. If you buy any object it usually fais of its intended use. Human judgement is more fallible..."
Personally, I always carry a little astrological calendar in my purse so I know when the VOCM is!
Oh, and here is something else interesting! I knew Al would lose his run for President, when he made his Democratic acceptance speech on a VOCM:
"In every major Presidential election from 1900 through 1972 one of the two major party candidates was nominated with the VOCM. Every one of the dandidates nominated with the VOCM lost. Jimmy Carter's 1980 nomination came with a VOCM."
The author goes on to say that things just aren't 'normal' during the VOCM, and people born during the VOCM, well, they aren't normal, either. They're special.
Hope this helps a bit.
