🕯 void of course moon: what it is & how to navigate it 🕯
the universe hit “pause” and forgot to tell you.
what is a void of course moon?
a void of course moon is the period of time after the moon makes its last major aspect (conversation) in a sign… and before it enters the next one. it’s a period of in-between. a liminal hallway. nothing really “lands.” actions don’t have roots. it’s the sky’s version of airplane mode.
✨ it’s not dangerous. it’s mostly floaty, glitchy, weird.
✨ plans fall through. people forget. energy feels off.
✨ it’s not a good time to start anything new. however it is a great time to nap, clean, journal, do nothing on purpose.
it’s the universe’s equivalent of: “let me get back to you on that.”
how this feels depends on your modality (cardinal, fixed, or mutable) because the universe doesn’t treat everyone the same.

cardinal signs
(aries ♈︎ cancer ♋︎ libra ♎︎ capricorn ♑︎)
you like to get things moving. but when the moon is void, the energy says sit it down. try not to Hulk out, trying to make things happen will just frustrate you. instead of trying to bulldoze through, this is your moment to plan like a chess master.
🕯 let your “doer” take a nap.
clean out your bag. journal, don’t text. just because nothing is progressing doesn’t mean you’re failing.
fixed signs
(taurus ♉︎, leo ♌︎, scorpio ♏︎, aquarius ♒︎)
you love control, consistency, and knowing what the plan is. a void moon interrupts your groove and you spiral trying to fix it. avoid making any decisions that feel rushed or reactive. you’ll thank yourself when the energy shifts and clarity floods back in.
🕯 don’t force anything, if you have excess energy go do something tactile like scrub the tub, brush your hair, water your plants.
mutable signs
(gemini ♊︎, virgo ♍︎, sagittarius ♐︎, pisces ♓︎)
you live in the in-between already, so void moons hit extra crazy. it’s easy to misread the vibes as a divine sign or existential warning. don’t try to lock down anything solid; this is creative free play
🕯 ground yourself. re-read your last text before you send a novella. you don’t need to solve your whole life today. wait for the fog to lift.
also: don’t flirt with ghosts during void moons.
general reminders:
• don’t launch anything
• don’t confront people
• don’t make big promises
• don’t start a situationship
• don’t assume you know how anyone feels
🤍 do rest.
🤍 do reset.
🤍 do slow down enough to feel what’s actually true.
🤍 do make tea, light a candle, stare at the ceiling dramatically.
🌙 for future reference:
• the last void before march 31, 2025 was march 30th from 9:17 am to 8:16 pm edt — that’s when the moon ghosted aries and slid into taurus. from “let’s burn it down” to “let’s chill and nap.” (hello, grounded energy).
• the next void of course moon occurs on sunday, june 1, 2025, beginning at 11:38 pm edt and ending on monday, june 2, 2025, at 3:00 am edt — the moon leaves leo (drama and glamour) and enters virgo “now, clean up the glitter, sort your inbox, maybe drink some water.”
so if you’re feeling stuck or things feel a little “off” during these windows now you know why. perfect time to lean into rest, creativity, or just slow down a bit. ✨
