DAILY ASTROLOGY IN FILM: OCTOBER 24

MOON IS VOID OF COURSE ALL DAY from 7:21am EDT until 10:10pm on Monday October 24. MOON ENTERS VIRGO at 10:10pm. (See Oct 25th) When the Moon is Void of Course it has passed the LAST ASPECT it makes to a planet in one sign and remains in that sign before it enters the next sign. This signifies the importance of planetary aspects. At this time, it is as if nothing is happening to influence the Moon. This is why when an action is initiated during the Void of Course Moon period, the resolution is likely to be 'no resolution' or 'nothing happens as a result of the action. This is also why the advice is not to begin a practical action during this period if your desire is for it to take form in a positive resolution. It is a great time to initiate something for which you'd like no result, or no reaction. For example if you engage in a prank for which you wish not to get caught, it behooves you to do it during a Void of Course Moon. I've read that it was during such a time that the press was alerted to the fact that the Reagans used astrology. There were, evidently, relatively little repercussions for them. This is also a perfect time for inner creative work when the imagination is freer than usual to draw new ideas from the unconscious mind.

SCENE FOR THE DAY: Scent of A Woman, 1992; Director: Martin Brest. This is the wonderful courtroom scene when Pacino's character, Lt. Col. Frank Slade, defends prep school student Charlie Simms, played by Chris O'Donnell, and Simms is released from his school 'arrest' with no reprimand by the board. We can imagine that the Moon is retrograde when judgment day begins. No penalties for the accused. No consequences for their actions. Note: Please forgive the subtitles; this was the only clip that played the scene through to end!
