Moon 3 degrees Leo, 11th House

At 1:22 PM, the Moon was sighted on the 3rd degree of Leo in the eleventh house. Self-confidence should receive a boost now as the Moon makes her way into Leo, and that’s always a good thing because sometimes society can place so many restrictions upon us that the atmosphere can be suffocating.

Suffocation, people will tell you that it’s from asthma or anxiety, but there’s something else that shouldn’t be ruled out. Suffocation is a sign of death. When something ceases to grow, it begins to die. Tyranny, fear, restrictions, limitations; if you’re living in fear or allowing others limit your choices, growth, or your potential, you’re body is going to send you warning signs.

God gave you the breath of life, breathing is life. If you’re experiencing bouts of suffocation, then you need to take a look at your life, and remember something, it’s your life.

This leads me to my second point; we can’t place all the blame on society. At some point, we must take responsibility for the things we did or didn’t do.

The eleventh house is the place where all of our wishes and dreams manifest. It’s a futuristic house, meaning that it represents the things we want, what we hope to have one day, and ultimately, the kind life we’d like to live someday. In a way, it can also represent what we’re aspiring or working towards.

Leo in the 11th House and because the Sun rules Leo, the Moon is pushing us towards a big-bright future that’s full of light, life, and abundance. Sometimes, loose ends don’t need to be tied up, they can just be cut off.

Not knowing what you want and not having a plan is okay, it means you aren’t done. And honestly, some of us are in that situation because we’re unsure about what’s out there.

The 3rd degree of Leo is about doing things in our own way, and we’re clearly shown that that’s the best way of getting all we hope and wish for. The MC is on the zero degree of Gemini (the sign of personal expression) conjunct Jupiter (abundance and prosperity). The Moon is pushing you towards being yourself, originality, authenticity, and speaking up for yourself.

Leo in the 11th House represents a big bright future for the bold and the exuberant. You cannot be a follower, submissive, or refuse to speak up for yourself.

The 13th and the 14th, today and tomorrow, are the last two nights before the first quarter moon. You’re running out of time. Get all your errands done, get your running-around done, and get all of your homework done before the 15th. After Wednesday, we can take a step back and see what rises to the top of this bubbling cauldron.

Lucky numbers are 8,9, and 17. Gold is also highlighted now.

Before I end this Moon Scope, I would like to mention that house eleven is the place of long term pleasures. Think about that in terms of the fifth house, which is short term pleasure. The fifth house is all about experimenting, having fun, being creative, sexual, and it represents an early and more immature time in our lives. Smoking weed on a Friday night is fifth house thing-short time pleasure, enjoying the moment.

In our personal charts, the eleventh house represents our future, and the sign there shows us how to go about making it the happiest and most fulfilling. Long term pleasure is about personal enjoyment. It’s about real true joy and personal satisfaction.

Good Morning Beloved!

Thank you visiting Nooz Buffet, and welcome to this April 19, 2024 edition of Moon Scope.

So, the first quarter moon was on the 15th of this month, and today, April 19, this evening’s moon will be lit up at 84%. Basically, the night of the full moon hasn’t arrived yet, but it will on the 23rd in the astrological sign, Libra.

There’s a lot of deception involved with the Moon, like for example, we say that a full Moon is illuminated 100%, but don’t forget about the dark side. On the night of a full moon, the moon is actually only 50% illuminated, and it should be called a half moon. It sounds funny, but it’s true.

I don’t want to confuse anyone, but that’s just the nature of the Moon as it represents emotions and subconscious thoughts within all of us. As the Moon relates to us in astrology, it symbolizes all the stuff others can’t see, and some of the stuff we ourselves really need to dig for.

This morning at 9:46 I spotted the Moon in Virgo on the 11th degree. And, while the Moon in Virgo can have us feeling argumentative and high-strung, displaying those emotions could be an indication of something deeper.

You care!

When we’re meticulous, focused on details, and trying to do something that’s important to us, when can become quite defensive and standoffish when our efforts are blocked or interrupted by others.

Since the Moon is naturally a 6th House sign, service is highlighted now. Our health, and health routines are also highlighted. When it comes to rituals and consistency, Virgo is the place to be. Joining a gym or starting a new class in cardio exercise might be the way to go. The summer is coming, and we like to look good during the summer months, plus it’s a fact that your overall mood can be improved with physical exercise.

Allergy season is upon us too, so just keep that in mind.

Other than that, it Friday! The weekend is here finally!

Lucky Numbers: 5 and 3 and 8

Highlighted Activities: Dancing, reading, writing, and baking.

Moon Scope

December 12, 2023

Thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet, and welcome to Moon Scope. With the Sun on the 20th degree of Sagittarius and the Moon on the 18th degree, we get a double dose of fire. Emotionally right now, we’re open, adaptive, and willing to go with the flow. There’s an unidentifiable excitement felt within, but with both the Sun and the Moon in Sag, the inside should be like that of the outside, and the outside like that of the inside.

Sagittarius bestows energetic ambition. It’s a freedom-loving sign that absolutely cannot stand being tied down or shackled to responsibility.

With the Moon in the 6th House, service is highlighted. That means service to ourselves, to our country, to our families and children, to god, and to our co-workers. Getting out of old ruts and seeking new ways to bring back a thrill to your life is the theme. For the service to yourself, you may find that you were having better luck when you were in better health.

It’s not a secret anymore, people will treat you the way you treat yourself, so believe me, if you have doubts or insecurities, people will play on them. I noticed when I spent time in the gym I not felt better from a health standpoint, but I felt better about myself, and people treated me better.

Think about it, service. How can you be a better father or mother, a better wife or husband, or how can you treat yourself or others better. This is all the stuff going on deep within the subconscious of our minds, but the Moon’s conjunction with the Sun will grant more will power to make your thoughts and inner emotions a reality.

Tonight’s Moon will be new, that means a fresh cycle is now beginning that will culminate the day after Christmas. From tonight until the Moon is full, it’s a good time to draft a plan that you can put into action. It should be a plan that allows more freedom in the areas of our lives that are highly restrictive.

It’s a challenge, we’re definitely challenging ourselves, but Sagittarius is not only a seeker of challenges, he loves them. Feed that emotional fire that’s burning deep within and let the spirit of freedom guide you to a more exciting life.

Lucky Numbers are 5 and 7, and Purple is the special color.

Moon Scope

November 27, 2023 Edition

Welcome to this November 27, 2023 Edition of Moon Scope, and thank you for visiting N.B. What we have going on at this time is a full moon in the astrological sign of Gemini. Constellation Gemini, for those who don’t know, got it’s more popularly used name, ‘The Twins,” from the two brightest stars in the group, Castor and Pollux.

Gemini is mutable air, which makes this an extremely adaptable sign. It has been said that Gemini’s live in their heads, which is why the phrase, “I think,” is so fitting.

Gemini is also the sign of communication, and it’s ruled by the Messenger God, Mercury. Adaptability is good at this moment because a lot of information is going to be coming our way. Some of it we may like, some of it may disturb us, and some of it is absolutely necessary, but either way, we take the good with the bad because we’re an open people.

We take in all forms of information, and decide what’s useful to us personally, but that’s after we’ve stood through the barrage, and standing through the barrage is important.

Gemini is the sign of communication, and it’s super-important to remember something about communication. Communication is like a two-way street, it goes both ways. If you and I were having a conversation, it wouldn’t be much of a conversation if only one of us was talking.

There’s an important message coming to us at this time of the full moon. If we’re going to have a conversation and communicate, both parties must be willing to listen and speak. In order to solve some of these distracting, and frankly, aggravating issues, we must be willing to listen to one another. Listen to what you’re partner is saying, and be honest with yourself about what you hear.

If you’ve been in a situation where you ended up as the shoulder to cry on, and the person who sits quietly while the other dumps all their shit out on you, this full moon is going to provide the power to bring that to an end, if that’s what you desire.

At the time of this full moon and for several days after, be on alert for the people in your circle who constantly talk about themselves, people who dominate a conversation and refuse to let you get a word in, and people who only seem to be concerned with themselves.

Also, be on alert for the people in your circle who get upset and verbally attack you when you either speak the truth or call them out on their lies. Being positive is fine and good, but “being positive” shouldn’t be used as an excuse for ignoring the truth or the real issues at hand. Being positive is approaching your problems head on.

There’s a lot going on here, but like I said, Gemini is the perfect sign for this moon placement because it’s intellectual and mutable. We’re going to have to make adjustments, and get rid of a few people who’ve been like a wet blanket on our backs, but sometimes the things we enjoy the most can be the worst things for us.

If you feel like you’re not being heard, or your partner has been inconsiderate towards your wants and needs, or the communication between the two of you has been a one-way-street, let them know. If they can’t respect how you feel, and at least talk through your issues until a conclusion can be reached, they’re not worth keeping around. Trust me.

The last thing I’ll leave you with is this. Gemini is the sign of communication, but actions speak louder than words.

This Moon Scope is coming straight from my heart.

Moon Scope; The Quality of Virgo

September 14, 2023 Edition

Welcome to the September 14, 2023, edition of Moon Scope, and thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet.

In three more days, on Thursday, the 14th, we get a new moon in the astrological sign of Virgo. At the same time, the Sun should be crossing over into the last 10 degrees of his transit through the same sign.

With a brand-new and fresh moon cycle beginning in Virgo, we receive not only a new start but a new start with a bit of uniqueness to it.

Photo by Joonas ku00e4u00e4riu00e4inen on Pexels.com

My intuition reveals a current scenario where someone is trying to achieve something, trying to make something work or trying to do something the “right way.”

I see a continuous effort being made, and the wonderful thing about the new moon phase starting in Virgo is that it blesses us with the tools to make things better, or exactly how we want or think they should be.

Virgo is a sign of the time. It’s telling us exactly how to navigate through this cycle of time in our lives, and when it comes to crossing your t’s and dotting your i’s, Virgo is the best placement.

The interesting thing here is that Virgo is the sign of perfection, however, we as humans aren’t perfect, and we don’t live in a perfect world. We’ll, that’s what we’re told, and if that’s true, then perfection as it relates to other people and places, may in fact, be an unreachable ideal. The key phrase being, “as it involves other people and places.”

Virgo, partially because it’s an earth sign, is not supportive of abundance or expansion, which makes sense because the more we add on and branch out, the more we realize the need to let go because we can’t control every little thing.

But, just like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, perfection, as it applies to you personally, becomes reachable. The world might be imperfect, but your world doesn’t have to be.

Some of us might not have a choice now when it comes to change, meaning the end of something soon only to begin again might happen despite our efforts to prevent it. We might not be able to preserve or extend the life of something because it’s out of our control.

A house, for example, might continue to crumble over and over again until we figure out the secret to an indestructible foundation. Why do you think every empire in human existence that rose to power eventually crumbled and fell?

The clock-time itself is a test. Things that aren’t real, natural, true, or created with sincerity will not last. They won’t stand the test of time, and believe me, time will not hesitate to show us this lesson over and over until things are done the “right way.”

The advice I’m giving for this new moon is to start small. Pick up whatever pieces the last moon cycle left you with, and move forward. Research, gathering information, and truth are highly favored now.

Virgo is mutable earth, which should be a reminder that the way through this time is with an open mind. Listen more instead of talking and sort of feel your way through.

I never had a lot of friends because I never wanted a lot of friends. I didn’t want to be around fake, pretentious people. I’d rather have a small group of 5 people who I know are good and who I know will be there when I need them the most.

It’s quality over quantity.

Thanks again for visiting Nooz Buffet, and I’ll see you all at the next full moon.

Blue Moon Scope

August 30, 2023 Edition

Friends, Fans, and Followers..

Thank you for visiting N.B. and welcome to the August 30, 2023 edition of Moon Scope.

Wow, so, there’s a lot going on with this lunar cycle, but we’ll start with the Blue Moon. There was a phrase people used to say, and I can remember my grandmother specifically saying it. Instead of saying, once in a while, she would say, “Once in a blue moon.” It was another way of saying something barely happens, or rarely happens.

As far as astrology or astronomy is concerned, a blue moon is the second full moon in a month. It’s rare that we have two full moons in the same month, and it won’t be until May of 2026 that it will happen again.

Is it really rare though?

Well, our calendar, which is also called the Julian calendar, is based on the solar cycle (365.25 days per year). We have 12 months, and each month typically has one new moon and one full moon, so, it’s rare and kind of a big deal when that extra full moon shows up. However, a lunar calendar has 13 months, so naturally, it’s accounted for.

Anyways, the Moon won’t be turning blue tomorrow night.

If you remember, this moon cycle began in Leo on the 16th of this month. I published a post titled, Dear God, I wrote it on the night of the new moon, and if you want, you can go back and read it.

The current moon cycle culminates tomorrow night in Pisces-a blue full moon in Pisces. The Moon represents the subconscious mind, and since it’s in Pisces, we could experience thoughts pertaining to mental institutions, prisons, rehab centers, and karmic justice.

The new moon in Leo gave us a fresh start and an opportunity to create a new life for ourselves, and if you took advantage of that energy, this culmination should provide some major revelations. As much as it hurts, we sometimes need to let go. Perhaps, we tried to kick a bad habit ourselves, and it didn’t work. So, you come to grips with the reality of your situation and respond with, “I tried. I need help, and I’m going into a rehabilitation facility.”

Maybe there’s someone in your family, or a friend of yours who’s a habitual law breaker. He/she might be a criminal, and you as the parent or the close friend, have been downplaying their situation and covering for that person. Sometimes, it’s the loss of freedom that wakes people up to turn their lives around.

Pisces is the natural ruler of the 12th House, and the 12th House is full of mystery. It’s the end of the road (wheel) and it deals with issues involving karma, the law of return, and cause and effect.

Here’s a great example. I caught chickenpox when I was in kindergarten. Now, here I am, it’s almost 40 years later and I just had an outbreak of shingles last week. I had know idea shingles lies dormant in your body once you catch chickenpox. It’s cause and affect. Anyway, I’m feeling better, kind of, but that’s a great example.

Intuition and spirituality are definitely highlighted now because the sign is Pisces and Pisces is a water sign. Pisces is also mutable, which means we are going to be more open minded and more receptive than usual.

Suddenly, we gain the ability of being molded by the energy of our environment, if that’s what we chose to do. As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. It’s not a time for confrontation or conflict. Ride the waves and let your intuition guide the way forward.

2 and 6 are the luck numbers.

Moon Scope; It Begins in the Sign of the Lion

August 15, 2023 Edition

Thank you for visiting N.B., and welcome to the August 15, 2023 edition of Moon Scope!

Leo is a creative sign, and it’s the sign of Leadership. There’s a proudness and regal nature about the Lion, and it was said once that Leo would rather be the kingpin of small group than a follower of large one.

The new moon tomorrow brings a fresh start with it, which I feel, is exactly what we need right now. It’s the middle of August, the summer is beginning to wind down, and there’s about 138 days left in the year.

In the grand scheme of things, I think we received all the information necessary at the time of the last full moon, which was on the night of August 1st. In Leo now, the reflective and reactive moon takes in the emotions dealing with love and creativity and leadership.

Let’s not forget that Leo is expansive, that means it covers a lot of space. However the Moon choses to react here, the arena will be open to great distances and heights. That could be the top of the corporate ladder, that could mean starting your own business, or it could mean traveling to new territories. Think expansive, think branching out, and think bigger.

I feel like the mood right now is light hearted and fun, and that’s what the creative in us needs to blossom.

Let’s talk about the Moon for a second. In ancient Greek mythology and religion, Artemis, as the personification of the Moon, was known as the Goddess of the hunt, nature, wild life, and wild animals. In an emotionally charged fire sign like Leo, it wouldn’t be surprising if the sacred feminine in all of us decides to embrace the hunt. It’s a hunt for a better life, a hunt for fun and enjoyment, and a hunt for all the things our lives are lacking right now.

Either way, I don’t think there could be a better sign to have a new moon in at this moment, and we should learn to trust in the divine timing of things.

Moon Scope

August 7, 2023 Edition

Welcome to the very first Moon Scope of August, and thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet.

Moon position: 3rd degree, Taurus, 8th House

Moon Phase: Tonight’s Moon will be a waning gibbous with 60% illumination.

There is no connection between the Moon and the Sun as of 8:49 this morning, but the Sun’s position in Leo in the 11th House highlights the future. With Virgo marking the location of the ascendant, Mercury becomes the chart ruler.

Theme: Communications Regarding the Future

With the Moon’s conjunction to the North Node, there’s a concentrated focus on the here and now and the chosen purpose for this lifetime. Both are in the 8th House, and the 8th House governs all issues related to other people’s money, legacies, and transformations through death and rebirth.

🌖As the Moon sits calmly in the sensual and earthly sign of the Bull, she gets a penetrating look at her current purpose (North Node) as it’s related to the self (Aries). With the 8th House ruling other people’s money, and Taurus being the sign that rules money and possessions, we must guard against the trap of comparing ourselves to others.

It’s not a bad thing to see what others have accumulated if that’s what you chose to do, so long as it doesn’t affect the opinion you have of yourself. We all have something special to offer, and the whole purpose of being the best person you can be or becoming the best version of yourself is so that you can maximize the potential within. When you look at it this way, there’s no competition and there’s no comparison-you’re in a league of your own.

But, as the North Node indicates in Aries, this is specifically about you. It’s time to take a look in the mirror and reassess your current situation. Are you doing what you came here to do? Do you have the things you need or want? Are you happy with what you have?

If no is the answer to those questions, there’s good news ahead. The current alignment of the Moon and the North Node in sign and house indicates a fresh start and the beginning of a brand-new cycle related to money and possessions.

The good thing about Taurus is that it bestows dependability and trustworthy-ness, but as a fixed sign, we can also be stubborn and resistant to change-and Taurus is probably the most stubborn of all the fixed signs.

However, with the North Node in Aries, the cardinal quality there should not only open us up to change, but grant us the power to forge ahead and go after what we want.

With Venus, the goddess of love and beauty and the ruler of Taurus in Leo in the 12th House, we gain the insight of knowing our current situation karmically charged.

Right now, all things point to favorable connections concerning love and communications, and a blessing is dropped on us if we decide to restructure our lives in an orderly way.

This is actually quite wonderful because not only are we getting a fresh start with luck in love and communication as indicated by the astrology, but the Moon is also waning down and getting ready to become new again.

Prepare yourself for the New Moon coming up on the 16th of August. There’s a wonderful opportunity ahead.

Lucky numbers are 6,4,1, and 9.

Moon Scope

Thursday, June 22, 2023.

Dear friends and followers, welcome to this summer kickoff edition of Moon Scope, and thank you for visiting NB!

The current moon cycle began on June 18th with a brand-new moon in the astrological sign Cancer. We’re now four days in, and tonight, pending clear skies, we should see a beautiful waxing crescent illuminated 19% in the sign of Leo.

The nights of the waxing crescent, which are the first seven nights of the new moon phase, is a time of new energy. It’s an exciting energy, and we’re supposed to be active.

The crescent moon symbolism, along with the spear, bow and arrows, the torch, and the lyre have all been attributed to Artemis, the ancient Greek Goddess of the hunt, the wilderness, wild animals, sudden death, and childbirth.

In general, the Moon represents a feminine energy; it’s receptive, reactive, and responsive. The moon also represents the subconscious. In our astrology charts, the moon can represent female figures, like your mother or your wife.

In the fixed fire sign of Leo, we find the emotional power and energy needed to set ablaze an otherwise passive moon. Fixed signs are known to be a bit stubborn, and there’s nothing wrong with that as long as we’re not intolerant, boastful, or pretentious.

Subconsciously, thoughts of having children may have been circulating, or perhaps, you’ve been feeling the urge to get started with a new creative project. All of that will surface now, and during the crescent phase, the time is perfect to finally get the wheels turning and move towards drafting or planning. We are taking thoughts or ideas from deep within us and using Leo’s fire to bring them to life.

Leo is always theatrical and loves being noticed, so, however you respond now, you’re sure to catch the eyes of others. Discern between those that can be of help and move you in the proper direction, and those that are a hindrance or just plain old jealous.

Leo rules the 5th House, a house that governs short-term pleasures. There’s nothing wrong with trying new things. I mean, how else are we going to find our heart’s desire or what we truly enjoy? As long as you know when to let certain short-term pleasures go so they don’t become habits, it’s all good.

Whatever you create now will be near and dear to your heart because Leo’s ruler, the Sun, is in the sign of the protector, Cancer. This is serious stuff, and you’ll want to keep an eye on it.

On a lighter note, it’s Thursday; one more day and the weekend will be here. Go out and enjoy yourself tonight. Add hints of yellow and orange to your attire! Hey, it’s the Leo way!

Leo rules the heart, back, and spine, and if you’re experiencing issues with any of those body parts, it might be time to get looked at.

As always, have a blessed evening, and thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet!

Moon Scope; Follow Up

Yesterday, I just published my recent Moon Scope here on Nooz Buffet dot com. Just to refresh your memory, this current moon cycle reached its culmination on Wednesday, April 5th.

We had a full moon in Libra in the 3rd house (short trips, school, the neighborhood, and all forms of communication).

The full moon represents a time of revelation, so my advice was to keep your eyes and ears open because the information you were looking for and needed to balance and bring harmony to third house issues was coming your way.

Well, today, two minutes ago actually, I just came across the article that can be found at the link below.

https://nypost.com/2023/04/08/leaked-pentagon-docs-show-russian-intelligence-compromised-by-us/

This article mentions the leak of Pentagon documents, which reveal just how far and how deep the United States infiltrated Russian Intelligence.

Unbelievable! This is exactly what a full moon in Libra in the 3rd house can bring about. You’re sitting there, and all of a sudden, a revelation of information smacks you in the face out of nowhere!

I was shocked, and I had to post this link because it was the perfect example of what the current alignment showed. The 7th House (known enemies/competitors, marriages, and partnerships) had Pluto on the “zero point” of Aquarius in trine with the moon in the 3rd, in trine with Venus in Taurus in the 11th (hopes, wishes, the future), and in sextile with Neptune in Pisces in the 9th (higher mind, higher education, long-distance travel, philosophical).

Venus rules Libra, so whatever manifested from the 3rd house had the ability to affect the future since Venus was in the 11th. Pluto the planet of death, rebirth, and regeneration, told us that something manifesting in the 3rd house was coming to an end. The information contained in the leak is covered under the domain of the 9th house.

In addition, this Pentagon leak is definitely going to change the relationship between the United States and Russia (7th House known enemies), and Russia will need to go back to the drawing board. Russia needs to figure out how they’re going to move forward, and their intelligence systems will eventually undergo a total rebirth.

Is it a coincidence that this happened at this time? Did the astrological alignment create the possibility for this happen?

I don’t know, but the stars were aligned and the energies were in place. So..
