Astrology of the Moon Signs Forecast for January 8 Through 14, 2012

Wolf Moon Monday

The Wolf Moon has a perfect astrological placement for good viewing. Astrological lore gives a word of encouragement on this due to the moon's placement in Cancer. The moon is ruled by Cancer, and is known for its better visibility than other signs.

Coming up is a great weekend for accomplishment because of the influence of Virgo and Libra together encompassing a generous five day period. This includes the early part of next week. The purist (Virgo) and the balancing scales (Libra) help with getting back to a normal post holiday routine.

Tuesday and Wednesday feature dramatic Leo playfully stalking the celestial skies. In any event, a good-humored element could overtake the most sincere efforts toward responsibility. Don't worry. The upcoming balance and purity effect will be with you.

About Moon Sign Astrology

More and more these days, I'm getting questions about the moon sign astrology. People wonder where it comes from, and how do I get the information. The story begins with a yearly publication called "Llewellyn's Daily Moon Sign Activities Guide." This is now out of print, but it served as a test launch for further astrological studies. Observing the recommendations in George Llewelyn's yearly publication began in 1972, and continued through 2,001.

Moon signs came in handy with self employment when I structured my own schedule. At first, I was skeptical, but it didn't hurt to arbitrarily follow Llewlyn's recommendations. These provided a basic structure for planning every day life. After so long, the concepts became committed to memory, from which a large part of this moon sign forecast is derived.

At the same time, I compared the characteristics of the different horoscope signs that I learned from my astrologer friend, John Poydock. Gradually, I collected a personal library of astrology books.

Observing the efficacy of the moon gardening forecast, I expanded to writing about these findings. But I wanted to know why they work. Curiosity led to more research, along with the desire to share both textual and experiential knowledge. In a sense, I picked up George Llewellyn's torch, as he fervently believed that astrology could save mankind from many ills.

The colors listed are unique to the sign that is associated with each two or three day period. The times may vary depending on the hemisphere, and charts for the time adjustment are available at the NASA web site.

Moon Sign Activity Suggestions for This Week

January 8, 9

Cancer - light gray, soft yellow, white

Sunday, Monday

Full Moon and Wolf Moon on Monday

Sunday is the perfect day for focusing on family. Preparing a good meal to share with loved ones is a great expression of Cancer, the nurturer. Continuing with the same flow of attention on Monday, the spotlight is easily focused on the home environment. Beauty treatments and shopping are also favored.

January 10, 11

Leo - red, orange, yellow, royal blue

Tuesday, Wednesday

Leo, known as a fixed sign, contributes to creativity with a dramatic flare. A fixed sign indicates placing together components that result in the production of a creative work. Sign contracts, and ask for favors when the noble and generous attributes of Leo are at hand.

January, 12, 13

Virgo - white, gray, navy blue

Thursday, Friday

Virgo and attention to detail go hand in hand contributing to anything that requires extra patience. Flexible by nature, Virgo's influence favors writing and sewing, or crochet, for example. The symbolism of purification ascribed to this sign known as the Virgin, indicates interest in cleansing either figuratively or literally.

The Astrology of the Moon Signs Forecast is a weekly publication.
