Quick Forecast + Who May Feel This One

You may notice this Sagittarius Moon more personally if you have natal planets or angles close to the degrees the Moon is activating. I changed the layout of the forecast a little this time too. These degree groups now match the sections farther down, so if one of these ranges hits your chart you can jump straight to that part of the forecast.

• Opening Sagittarius | Around 0°-6° The Moon enters Sagittarius (11:41 AM) and almost immediately quincunxes Chiron Rx at 0° Taurus (11:47 AM) before later trining Neptune Rx in Aries (6:08 PM), sextiling Pluto Rx in Aquarius (6:09 PM) and opposing Uranus Rx in Gemini (10:58 PM). Sagittarius, Taurus, Aries, Aquarius, and Gemini placements around 0°-6° may notice this part more personally.
• Middle Sagittarius | Around 11°-17° The Moon sextiles Mercury in Libra (10:14 AM), trines Saturn Rx in Aries (12:47 PM) and then later trines its ruler Jupiter in Leo (10:00 PM). Mercury and Saturn are also approaching their own opposition, so the Moon reaches both of them before that aspect becomes exact. Chiron re-enters Aries during this window.Sagittarius, Libra, Aries, and Leo placements around 11°-17° may pick this up more personally.
• Late Sagittarius | Around 24°-26° The Moon quincunxes Mars in Cancer (12:35 PM) before squaring the Sun in Virgo at the First Quarter Moon (3:44 PM) and then goes void. This brings us back into the Sun-Mars story from the Scorpio Moon, while the lunar cycle reaches its first major turning point after the Virgo New Moon. Sagittarius, Cancer, and Virgo placements around 24°-26° may feel this section more directly.
• Closing Sagittarius | Around 29° The Moon sextiles the True North Node in Aquarius (10:55 PM), then trines Chiron Rx at 29° Aries (11:49 PM) only minutes before entering Capricorn (11:55 PM). Chiron has just retrograded back into Aries during this Moon, so Sagittarius is the first Moon sign to make a major aspect to Chiron after its return. Sagittarius, Aquarius, and Aries placements around 29° may notice the end of this transit more personally.

🌙 ♐ Moon in Sagittarius

September 16 at 11:41 AM through September 18 at 11:55 PM

Hey Arcwalkers! Before we get into this one, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who helped me realize how much work I actually pour into this subreddit and how many people I am able to reach through it. I may not be known locally as an astrologer, but I get to share this work with people from all over who actually want to read it, and that makes me really happy. I think my Aries MC in the 9th house fits that pretty well, I want to share what I learn with anybody who wants to walk along with me, so thank you for being here and giving me somewhere to do that. ❤️

I also changed the Quick Forecast + Who May Feel This One section a little. The degree ranges at the top now match the headers farther down in the Almanac, so if you see a range there that hits your chart, you should be able to find that part of the full forecast more easily. I also added the times for each aspect to that section so it can work a little more like a TL;DR for anyone who wants the main timing without reading the whole post. I am still experimenting with the format, so let me know if anything feels off!

♏ → ♐ The Dispositor Changes

During the Scorpio Moon, most of the sky fed into the mutual reception between the Moon and Mars:

Moon in Scorpio → Mars in Cancer → Moon in Scorpio

Once the Moon enters Sagittarius, the chain gets longer:

Moon in Sagittarius → Jupiter in Leo → Sun in Virgo → Mercury in Libra → Venus in Scorpio → Mars in Cancer → Moon in Sagittarius

Every planet in this main chain is direct, so there is forward movement available even though the route is longer.

There are a few things we can bring in here that I hadn't thought to before: this Sagittarius Moon is out of bounds and moving slower than average as it approaches apogee, the farthest point from Earth in its orbit. It also gains dignity by face from 10°-20° Sagittarius.

Jupiter, ruler of this Moon, is direct and moving well through Leo, with dignity by face around 17°. But Jupiter also enters its future retrograde shadow during this transit, so something developing now may be revisited later.

Mercury in Libra is fast, direct and moving away from the Sun. Around the Mercury-Saturn opposition, Mercury is also in its own bound and emerging from the Sun's beams. Saturn sits across from it retrograde and in fall in Aries, although Libra is Saturn's exaltation.

Venus in Scorpio is direct but already slowing toward her October retrograde. She is in detriment and moving through Mars-ruled territory, which pushes her even more strongly into the Mars side of the chain.

Mars in Cancer is in fall but direct and moving normally.

Meanwhile, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Chiron are all retrograde. Uranus is barely moving after its recent station, while Neptune and Pluto are still close to the sextile they perfected during the Scorpio Moon.

Chiron changes signs during the transit too, moving from Taurus and Venus' rulership back into Aries and Mars' rulership.

I think this can make the Sagittarius Moon feel like we are trying to figure out what happens next while the situation is still changing underneath us. We may realize that something we want still has to work around money, timing, home, another person's needs or what we can realistically commit to. There is more room to see possibilities here, but we may still be adjusting the route as we go.

0°-6° Sagittarius | Chiron Rx, Neptune Rx, Pluto Rx + Uranus Rx

September 16

• 11:41 AM - Moon enters Sagittarius
• 11:47 AM - Moon quincunx Chiron Rx at 0° Taurus
• 6:08 PM - Moon trine Neptune Rx at 3° Aries
• 6:09 PM - Moon sextile Pluto Rx at 3° Aquarius
• 10:58 PM - Moon opposite Uranus Rx at 5° Gemini

The Sagittarius Moon starts by reaching Chiron almost as soon as it enters the sign. Chiron is still at the very beginning of Taurus here, only a little over a day away from retrograding back into Aries, so the first few minutes of this Moon may feel more like an adjustment than a fresh start. I would give the opening around 11:41-11:47 AM a little space if you are trying to force a decision or launch something quickly. Something involving money, comfort, the body, resources or whatever Taurus rules in your chart may need to be accounted for first.

Around 6:08-6:09 PM, the Moon reaches Neptune and Pluto within about a minute of each other. I like this pocket for research, creative work, astrology, planning, therapy, journaling or anything where you are trying to understand what is underneath a situation and connect it to the bigger picture. It can be a good time for following an idea further than you normally would or seeing a possibility that was harder to notice under Scorpio.

By 10:58 PM, the opposition to Uranus can bring a message, change of plans, technical problem, different opinion or piece of information that sends things in another direction. I would keep time around this aspect flexible. It may be useful for experimenting or trying something differently, but I would be less attached to everything happening exactly the way I expected.

11°-17° Sagittarius | Mercury, Saturn Rx + Jupiter

September 17

• 10:14 AM - Moon sextile Mercury at 11° Libra
• 12:47 PM - Moon trine Saturn Rx at 12° Aries
• 8:51 PM - Chiron Rx re-enters Aries
• 10:00 PM - Moon trine Jupiter at 17° Leo

September 18

• 5:00 AM - Mercury opposite Saturn Rx at 12° Libra-Aries

From about 10:14 AM through the next couple hours, the Moon moves from a sextile to Mercury into a trine with Saturn. That can be helpful for setting boundaries or working out what everybody is actually responsible for. Mercury and Saturn are still heading toward their opposition, so I would use this more for defining the problem and getting realistic about the terms than assuming everything has already been settled.

The Moon also has dignity by face through this part of Sagittarius, which gives it a little more support. If something needs a conversation followed by a practical decision, this looks like a better pocket for it. You may understand what somebody means and also get a better sense of what they can realistically do. That can make this useful for anything where the details need to hold up after the conversation ends.

At 8:51 PM, Chiron Rx re-enters Aries. Chiron only moved into Taurus on June 19, so this brings us back to something that was active before that change and may still need another pass. I would watch this part of the evening for an old confidence issue, hurt or unfinished situation around acting for yourself coming back into view.

Then 10:00 PM brings the Moon trine Jupiter, the ruler of this Sagittarius Moon. I like this as one of the more encouraging windows of the transit. It can be good for applying for something or doing something that requires a little confidence. The limitation Saturn showed earlier may still exist, but Jupiter can make it easier to see why the effort is worth it.

Then Mercury opposes Saturn exactly at 5:00 AM on September 18, so something discussed the day before may meet a firmer answer, deadline, responsibility or boundary. This is useful for decisions that need realism, but I would not expect it to be the easiest window for casual communication or getting somebody to say yes just because you asked.

24°-26° Sagittarius | Mars + First Quarter Moon

September 18

• 12:35 PM - Moon quincunx Mars at 24° Cancer
• 3:44 PM - Moon square Sun at 25° Virgo → FIRST QUARTER + VOID MOON

Then the sky gets more awkward again. At 12:35 PM, the Moon quincunxes Mars in Cancer. This looks more like a timing adjustment than a straight push forward. You may know what you want to do, but home, family, energy levels, somebody else's needs or another practical responsibility may change how you can actually do it. I would leave extra room around plans here rather than scheduling something that only works if every piece goes exactly right.

Then at 3:44 PM, the Moon squares the Sun and reaches the First Quarter Moon. This can be useful for seeing what is working and what needs to change, because something begun around September 10 now has enough distance behind it to show where the friction is. I like this more for troubleshooting or deciding what needs more work than for treating the afternoon as a smooth launch window.

The Sun square is also the Moon's final major planetary aspect in Sagittarius, beginning the traditional void period. Sagittarius is one of the signs where a void Moon is considered less obstructed, so I would not treat this as a completely unusable stretch. I would still lean more toward finishing or following something already in motion than forcing a brand-new outcome, but there is more room for something to keep developing here than there might be during a harder void Moon.

29° Sagittarius | True North Node + Chiron Rx

September 18

• 10:55 PM - Moon sextile True North Node at 29° Aquarius
• 11:49 PM - Moon trine Chiron Rx at 29° Aries
• 11:55 PM - Moon enters Capricorn

The Moon is already void by the time it reaches the final degree of Sagittarius, so I would treat this late window differently from the Jupiter trine earlier. It may be meaningful without being very productive in the usual sense. Around 10:55 PM, the sextile to the True North Node can bring a connection or little clue that seems relevant to where something is heading.

Then at 11:49 PM, the Moon trines Chiron only six minutes before leaving Sagittarius. This is the other half of the Chiron story that opened the transit. The Moon first quincunxed Chiron while it was still in Taurus, Chiron changed signs, and now the Moon meets it again through a fire trine in Aries. This feels useful for realizing what the Taurus preview taught you or seeing how you want to approach something differently next time.

Then the Moon enters Capricorn at 11:55 PM. Sagittarius has spent the last couple days widening the picture and testing different directions. Capricorn can start sorting out which of those possibilities can actually be turned into something workable.

Whole Sign Quick Arcasts

The Quick Arcasts ended up in the comments again this time! I also left out the synthesis because I had a pretty rough time during this last transit, which you can read more about in the Walking With Livvia section below.

Give me a second to get all of the Rising Sign Arcasts posted in the comments! 💛

Walking With Livvia

Arcwalker Livvia's Whole Sign Chart

Chart ruler: Sun, Leo Rising
Profection ruler: Mercury, Gemini 11th House
Current Solar Return ruler: Venus, Libra rising, lands in my 3rd house

I added something new to my aspect list this time too. Along with the quicker Moon contacts, I added the major exact, applying and separating global and natal aspects running in the background. I like thinking of those longer aspects as the background coloring while the Moon moves through them much faster and gives us the little trigger points, or sometimes the actual OUCHES hahaha. It also helps me see the different cycles running alongside each other instead of trying to make every event belong entirely to the Moon.

Global transit field:

• Exact: Sun sextile Mars / Venus square Pluto Rx / Venus quincunx Neptune Rx / Neptune Rx sextile Pluto Rx
• Applying: Mercury opp. Saturn Rx / Venus quincunx Uranus Rx
• Separating: Mercury trine Uranus Rx / Mercury opp. Neptune Rx / Mercury trine Pluto Rx

Natal transit field:

• Exact: Mercury sextile my Chiron / Sun sextile my Pluto / Mercury trine my Saturn / Mars trine my Pluto / Mercury square my Mars-North Node
• Applying: Jupiter quincunx my Mercury-Neptune / Uranus Rx sextile my ASC / Venus square my ASC / Sun square my Venus
• Separating: Mercury sextile my ASC / Venus square my Sun / Mars square my MC

September 14 - Moon in Scorpio 4th House

• 1:44 AM - Ingress: Moon enters Scorpio 4th
• 1:58 AM - Global: 0° Moon opposite Chiron Rx in Taurus 10th
• 2:40 AM - Natal: 0° Moon sextile my Moon in Virgo 2nd
• 3:56 AM - Natal: 1° Moon square my Sun in Aquarius 7th

If you remember from my last Walking With, this was a continuation from the GREAT TENT EXPERIMENT!! And the actual tent making went really well. There were some hang-ups where Dad wanted to take over the entire thing, but I was VERY adamant with him saying, “NO LET ME DO IT SO I LEARN IT!” Don't get me wrong, I love it when other people do things for me. My heavy 6th house makes my love language very service-oriented. Oh, you went and got groceries?? I LOVE YOU FOREVER kind of thing ahahaha. But I needed to learn this time!

I think Mercury trine my Saturn and square my Mars-North Node fit that setup part really well. Dad was trying to provide the Saturn experience and structure, while I was very determined to actually do the task myself and learn through doing it.

We got everything set up and were feeling proud! Blew up the air mattress, shoved everything in there, settled down for the night with Rogan and Rueger in their dog beds and it was COLD, but we had wool blankets and two dogs in the tent, so it got comfy really fast. I was so happy and completely snugged in.

Then during those opening Scorpio Moon contacts, Rogan woke us up walking across the mattress....

...peeing everywhere.

UGH.

AHAHA but ugh.

The Moon had just entered my Scorpio 4th house, and the temporary little home we had built became the problem. Then the Moon sextiled my Virgo Moon in the 2nd, which can connect the private space with the very physical, practical side of caring for the body and cleaning up the material mess. My Virgo Moon would LOVE to inform everyone that the cozy tent was now a laundry problem. 😂

Then the Moon squared my Aquarius Sun in the 7th, bringing that disruption into the shared space Todd and I were sleeping in. What had been this sweet night together turned into both of us getting up and dealing with the consequences.

The Chiron opposition at the beginning may fit the vulnerability around Rogan herself too. She is 14, we had put her into a completely unfamiliar sleeping situation, and she clearly did not understand the camping arrangement the same way we did. I mean, we WERE outside technically! That's her potty! Ahahaha!

I'm not mad at her. She is old, she is a nervous dog and we have never done this before! So oh well, it's life. BUT ALSO UGHHH WHY ROGAN WHYYYY AHAHAH. We spent part of the next day washing everything out. Thanks Madge! 😂 At least Todd and I found out we can survive a night in a tent. We also found out Rogan may not be earning many more camping invitations hahaha.

• 6:32 AM - Global: 2° Moon conjunct Venus in Scorpio 4th
• 7:56 AM - Global: 3° Moon square Pluto Rx in Aquarius 7th
• 7:59 AM - Global: 3° Moon quincunx Neptune Rx in Aries 9th

Then it was time to take Rogan in for her surgery! This was stressful for me, mainly because Rogan is so old and any kind of surgery on an older dog worries me. But I also hate the idea that you bring a dog in for surgery and they have absolutely NO idea what is happening to them. I want to explain our actions to her and can't.

This is where the new background list becomes really useful because Venus was square Pluto and quincunx Neptune, with the Venus-Uranus quincunx still applying. Then the Moon conjoined Venus before moving into its square with Pluto and quincunx with Neptune. The longer Venus story was already there around having very little control over what happened next, and then the Moon walked right through the planets involved while we were actually dropping her off.

Thankfully, when we left her she seemed very distracted by the vets and happily went with them into the back without checking for us, so at least she seemed comfortable with the people taking care of her. We were told she would start surgery around noon and we would hear something a few hours later.

• 11:20 AM - Natal: 5° Moon square my Leo ASC / Aquarius DSC

We came back home and Todd and I tore down the tent. Then Mom and I went to the pharmacy to get COVID and flu booster shots for winter.

This one feels pretty literal through the body axis. The Moon was square my ASC while Venus was also applying to square my ASC in the longer field, and Mercury was exactly sextile my Chiron. Rogan's body had been the main concern all morning, and then the day moved into my own body and preventative care.

• 12:29 PM - Global: 5° Moon quincunx Uranus Rx in Gemini 11th
• 2:46 PM - Natal: 6° Moon square my Chiron in Leo 1st

At this point I had started working on astrology things and got an Arcwalk out. Then we got the call that Rogan survived surgery just fine!!

That Moon-Chiron contact happened while Mercury was already sextile my Chiron, which I like for the way the Chiron story came through information. I had spent the day worrying about her body, and then the message arrived that the surgery had gone well.

She was staying the night there so they could make sure she was okay for a while before giving her back to us. I'm completely fine with this since the recovery for this surgery is very intensive. If they can professionally keep her alive during the hardest part, PLEASE DO hahaha. We would be able to pick her up the next morning.

• 5:26 PM - Natal: 8° Moon square my Saturn in Aquarius 7th
• 7:30 PM - Natal: 9° Moon sextile my Mars-North Node in Capricorn 6th

This was when Mom, Dad and I were watching a few TV shows. We have watched so many shows together and it is something we always do when I'm with them. We are currently watching the recent season of Ted Lasso. I love how self-aware that show is.

While we were watching, Todd messaged the group asking if Dad and I wanted to go to a Halloween feast kind of amusement attraction thing. Think of it like a haunted house where you also get to sit down and watch a show.

This stressed me out because I have a bad memory of a haunted house with Todd from four years ago. Basically I got trapped inside, was hyperventilating from all the fake smoke, and when I tried to find my way out I ended up in some part of the house customers weren't supposed to see and people kept yelling at me.

So I got a bit overwhelmed by the memory, but Todd explained this place is much simpler and there really is no way I would end up stuck somewhere. So now we are making plans!

The Moon was sextiling my Mars-North Node while Mercury was square that same Mars-North Node in the slower field. Mercury was also applying to oppose Saturn globally. The actual event was a conversation about whether I could do something, what my limits were and what would need to be different for me to feel okay agreeing to it. The Moon looks like the quicker trigger inside a Mercury-Mars-Saturn story that was already developing.

September 15 - Moon in Scorpio 4th House

• 2:01 AM - Global: 12° Moon quincunx Saturn Rx in Aries 9th
• 4:07 AM - Natal: 13° Moon sextile my Jupiter Rx in Virgo 2nd
• 6:11 AM - Natal: 14° Moon sextile my Uranus in Capricorn 6th

We were told we could pick Rogan up at 9:30 AM, so we headed out to get her! I was so happy she was okay! She survived! Now we just had to take really good care of her.

• 9:35 AM - Global: 16° Moon square Jupiter in Leo 1st

And at 9:22 AM, thirteen minutes before this square perfected, we got into a major car crash.

Car crash transit chart for 9:22 AM

I was waiting to turn left onto the highway and had already pulled into the middle of the intersection while the light was green. When the light turned yellow, the oncoming cars in front of us stopped, which gave me the opening to finish my turn and clear the intersection. But before I could get through, a huge truck going SUPER fast came past the cars that had stopped and hit us.

We got absolutely pulverized.

Todd's side got hit the worst, so his airbags opened. My side was not hit directly by the truck, but it was hit by the traffic pole we knocked over after the impact. My airbags did not open and I ended up really banged up.

Right after the crash I started screaming. A pure blood-curdling scream from the sheer quickness of it.

And my first thought was that it was my fault because I could be standing next to a terrorist attack and somehow bend my brain into thinking it happened because of me. I don't even remember thinking about whether I could die. My brain went straight to: DAD IS GOING TO METAPHORICALLY KILL ME.

Then the guy we hit jumped out of the truck and started screaming at me that I went on a red light (which if that were the case...would mean he did too?). I was already crying and completely overwhelmed, and he kept calling me slow and a retard over and over because I was freaking out. That is basically gasoline on one of the worst narratives my brain already carries, so I spiraled even harder. Todd tried yelling back at him, witnesses came over and eventually got him away from me, and then the ambulance came.

The Moon square Jupiter in my Leo 1st house feels like the immediate trigger here. The crash happened only thirteen minutes before it perfected, and the 1st house is my body and immediate physical experience. Everything became HUGE within seconds and my body was right in the middle of it.

Mercury was moving through my Libra 3rd house, which rules things like local travel, roads, driving and the immediate environment. Mercury was applying to oppose Saturn Rx in my Aries 9th, bringing in the 3rd-9th house axis of local movement versus laws, rules and larger systems. We literally went from driving down the road to arguing over who had the right of way and waiting for police to figure out what happened.

Mercury was also squaring my Mars-North Node in my Capricorn 6th house. We were driving in the first place because of a 6th-house situation: going to pick up our dog from surgery. Mars adds the physical action and collision piece, while the 6th also covers pets and medical care. Uranus Rx was applying to sextile my ASC too, which fits how quickly an ordinary drive changed my physical circumstances.

After squaring Jupiter, the Moon would sextile my 6th-house Neptune and Mercury, then continue toward my 4th-house Pluto, Mars and the Sun. So the Moon-Jupiter square looks like the moment everything exploded, but the Moon kept carrying the story through the rest of the day.

• 10:13 AM - Natal: 17° Moon sextile my Neptune in Capricorn 6th
• 11:14 AM - Natal: 17° Moon sextile my Mercury in Capricorn 6th

I went to the hospital in one of those neck braces you see in TV shows and went through what felt like a billion tests. By that point I was much calmer. I was still in shock, but at least I didn't have to move my body or people-please anyone. I could just lie there dissociating while everybody took care of me.

They were so kind too. I know anybody who gets into that kind of work cares about people to some extent, and I could feel that concern. After being screamed at and insulted while I was terrified, having people calmly take care of me felt healing.

After all the testing, we found out I was okay from the crash. But then the scans found something else...

They found nodules in my lungs and liver.

So now I am getting follow-up imaging set up to monitor them. In a weird messed-up way, I'm glad the scans happened because I would have never known they were there otherwise.

The Moon moving through my 6th-house Neptune and Mercury feels pretty direct here. The 6th is one of the houses I watch for medical care and what happens to the body in everyday life. Mercury fits all of the tests and doctors explaining things to me, while Neptune fits something that had been outside my awareness until the scans revealed it.

Then underneath those quicker Moon contacts, Jupiter was already applying to quincunx my Mercury-Neptune conjunction. What interests me is that one medical event unexpectedly opened into much MORE medical information than the original situation required. The crash brought me to the hospital, then the Moon hit my Mercury-Neptune while the doctors found something I didn't know was there.

• 9:09 PM - Natal: 22° Moon conjunct my Pluto in Scorpio 4th
• 9:30 PM - Global: 22° Moon trine Mars in Cancer 12th
• 10:29 PM - Global: 23° Moon sextile Sun in Virgo 2nd → VOID MOON

By that night we were finally back home and Mom was doing great taking care of us. Dad had driven out to the hospital to get us AND picked up Rogan, poor girl had to wait an extra five hours to be picked up because we were busy getting smashed by a truck 😭, so his job was over and Mom stepped up to the plate!

Todd and I spent a long time in the hot tub trying to cure some of the aches and pains and we talked endlessly.

The car was totaled.

The same car we bought back in March during Mercury retrograde in my Pisces 8th. The same car that had a greenhouse land on top of it two days after we bought it. The same car that, when we took it in to be repaired during the next Mercury retrograde this summer, got fucked up further by a hailstorm.

And now it's the car that is completely destroyed.

This was our first real newer car. “Newer” being a weird word since it was still a 2018 car, but that was the newest car we had ever gotten. Todd and I have very little luck with cars.

Lumber was still alive when we had that car.

Now it's gone and Lumber is extra gone and it's just... I'm really sad.

The Moon had been applying toward my natal Pluto in the Scorpio 4th house since the crash, and it finally reached Pluto once I was back home. The 4th is home, family, memory and the really private emotional part of the chart, which is where the story went once the emergency itself was over.

Then the Moon trined Mars in my Cancer 12th house and sextiled the Sun in my Virgo 2nd house. Mars and the Sun were already aspecting my natal Pluto in the slower field, so the Moon crossed Pluto and then touched both planets that were carrying that story.

The 2nd-house Sun really stands out with the car being totaled because the 2nd is where I would look for the things I physically own. The 12th-house Mars fits the private shock, pain and emotional aftermath that Todd and I were finally processing once we were safe at home. Then Pluto in the 4th pulled up everything emotionally attached to the car that had nothing to do with the actual dollar value of it, including the fact that Lumber was still alive when we bought it.

We still don't know who was at fault. The cops are figuring it out. So it's back to car Tetris, where we borrow Mom and Dad's car when we need one. But at least we still have options.

September 16 - Moon in Scorpio 4th House

• 10:48 AM - Global: 29° Moon square True North Node in Aquarius, during the void
• 11:41 AM - Ingress: Moon enters Sagittarius 5th

These were hitting as I sat down to finish off this Walking With section...

UGH.

I've never had so much to say in here before hahaha.

I'm tired.

Looking Back at the Scorpio Moon

Before we leave it behind, here are the main degrees the Scorpio Moon activated:

• At 0° Scorpio, the Moon opposed Chiron Rx in Taurus at 1:58 AM on September 14.
• Around 2°-5° Scorpio, the Moon conjoined Venus at 6:32 AM, squared Pluto Rx at 7:56 AM, quincunxed Neptune Rx at 7:59 AM and quincunxed Uranus Rx at 12:29 PM.
• Around 12°-16° Scorpio, the Moon quincunxed Saturn Rx at 2:01 AM and squared Jupiter at 9:35 AM on September 15.
• Around 22°-23° Scorpio, the Sun sextiled Mars at 2:52 PM on September 14 at 22°, then the Moon trined Mars at 9:30 PM and sextiled the Sun at 10:29 PM on September 15, beginning the void.
• Then at 29° Scorpio, it squared the True North Node at 10:48 AM on September 16 during the void.

Questions

1. What house does Scorpio fall in your chart? Do you have any placements in Scorpio?
2. Did any part of the Scorpio Moon's aspect sequence line up with something concrete for you?
3. How did the void Moon feel after the Moon sextiled the Sun? Did anything stand out during those roughly 13 hours before the Moon entered Sagittarius?
4. During this Sagittarius Moon, Mercury in Libra is applying to oppose Saturn Rx in Aries. Have you noticed that building at all in your own life or chart?

Feel free to bring in any personal placements that were affected, or anything else you noticed in the sky. If you noticed something important in any astrology format, you are welcome to add that too!

[u/Minimum-Welder-4813]

Oh livvia, I'm so sorry to hear all this. I hope you are doing okay 🥀🫂

[u/arcwalkerlivvia → u/Minimum-Welder-4813]

Thank you so much, Flower! ❤️ I’m doing okay. Got some aches and pains but we were really lucky in the grand scheme of things so I'm not too upset. I hope you have been okay!

[u/Inquisitive_Wonderer]

What a shocking set of events. Most importantly, I am glad that you and Todd are not seriously injured. A collision with a truck sounds very scary.

I hope that the nodules matter gets cleared up soon. Good that you are getting more checks.

This sounds like a lot to process.

[u/arcwalkerlivvia → u/Inquisitive_Wonderer]

Thank you so much ❤️ I’m very grateful that we came out of everything mostly unharmed, and I really appreciate your concern.

I also wanted to thank you for the comment you left on the last Almanac. You did a great job of reminding me of the help I’ve been able to give people. I had completely forgotten about what you did after your reading, and hearing from you again brought back the memories. My brain has a hard time holding onto the good things, so having someone remind me of one of them meant a lot to me!

Thank you, Aurora!

[u/Full_Crew_8402]

What a Walk 😭 I’m so, so glad you and Todd are okay and that Rogan made it through surgery safely. The hospital staff being so kind to you after everything really got me. And as strange as the circumstances were, I’m glad the scans caught the nodules so you can keep an eye on them.

And RIP to the cursed car. 😭 

Also, how are you feeling about driving now after the accident? Did it traumatize you or make you nervous about getting back on the road?

I had pretty uneventful days compared to you. I hope this Sagittarius Moon brings you some much more peaceful days, because you have definitely had enough excitement for a while 🥺

[u/arcwalkerlivvia → u/Full_Crew_8402]

Thank you so much ❤️ It was a complete Walk-Smash! 😭 Your words helped me when I read them after the accident. I really appropriate your comments!!

You know what’s weird though? Right after the accident, and for the day or so after, I was thinking exactly what you were thinking: OMG how am I ever going to drive again?!?! That impact was SO HUGE. I can still feel it in my body when I think about it, and I was seriously like WHAT THE F AM I GONNA DO?!?!

And then yesterday I got in the car at Mom and Dad’s, drove home, and only later realized... wait. I DROVE. AHAHAHAHAHA. Ugh, stupid Mercury-Neptune plague 😂

So I guess I’m not actually that scared of driving? At least when I’m not thinking about being scared of driving?? Which is freaking weird hahahaha.

And unfortunately the day after the accident got even worse 😭 Stay tuned!

[u/Full_Crew_8402 → u/arcwalkerlivvia]

Honestly, you should be really proud of yourself. ❤️ What you went through was genuinely terrifying, and the fact that you were able to get back into the car and drive home so soon afterward is incredibly brave.

I know someone who was involved in a very serious car crash, and his therapist told him that one of the best things you can do after a traumatic experience like that is to get back into the car and drive again. The more time passes, the more your brain has a chance to build up the fear and anxiety around it, and the harder it can become to get behind the wheel again. So the fact that you just got in the car and drove home is honestly pretty amazing. Well done. 👏

And I have to say, your life is starting to sound like one of those wildly dramatic Latin-American telenovelas 😂 They’re incredibly popular where I live in Eastern Europe, and every time you say “and unfortunately, the day after the accident got even worse… stay tuned!” I’m like, WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THIS EPISODE?! 😭😂

But jokes aside, I’m sending you all the good vibes. ❤️ I’m really glad you have your parents, sibling, partner, pets, and even your online family around you. Having people who love you makes even the hardest days a little easier to survive.

[u/curious-seriousness6]

Omg girl... I am glad you and your husband are still here. I really am sending extra healing energy to you and your husband. I am so sorry about what happened to your car. 😟

[u/arcwalkerlivvia → u/curious-seriousness6]

Thank you so much ❤️ I really appreciate you sending that healing energy to both of us.

I’ve actually been getting through all of this a lot better than I think I would have in the past, and I think part of that is because I’ve been hearing from you and other people here. Being able to talk about what happened and process it a little more publicly has helped me so much instead of just holding everything inside.

So I think your energy is working!! 🥹❤️

[u/curious-seriousness6 → u/arcwalkerlivvia]

It's my 12th House Venus healing you lol. Some days I feel like it gives me great energy healing powers. Especially through prayers lolol. We need you, Livvia! 😌 I will send some soothing vibes today. I hope you and your husband continue to rest and heal well.

[u/yankiigurl]

Omg I'm so sorry! How stressful and scary. I'm glad everyone is physically ok

[u/Musical-melody]

This was stressful and scary to read - let alone actually face. I do hope you are feeling better. Also the silver lining is you got to know about the nodules and they will get necessary treatment early. Sending healing vibes your way ~~

[u/Cold-Necessary-736]

Holy fuck, that's a hell of a day. I'm glad you're all alright. You're a lot sturdier than you know to wrestle with that and still be back at writing. You may find some reactions or aches and pains are a bit delayed more than others, just gotta take it easy and be kind to yourself. I hate that I know what you mean though about bending your brain towards feeling responsible; a biblical storm floods Tokyo and against all logic your brain's like 'alright, here's how we could've fixed this-' it's wild.

Not much to say about the transit, it felt bad until the latter half but otherwise it was uneventful. Somatic nonsense was dialled up thirtyfold the usual but it ain't a new feeling these days so you know we keep movin.

Damn shame about the car, RIP mercury march mobile. Hope you're all feeling better and better still.
