Highlights of 2024

The longest void period of the year begins on January 25, 2024 at 20:46 and lasts 46h 25m; the Moon is in Leo and made its last aspect as a square to Jupiter. The shortest period starts on January 20 at 13:57 and lasts only 1m. The average void lasts 13h 25m.

Long voids happen when the Moon completes its last major aspect early in a sign: for the rest of its passage it forms no exact aspect with any classical planet. In electional astrology these stretches are considered unfavourable for new beginnings; when planning a signature, a proposal or a journey, checking the table and moving the hour outside the void is usually enough.

Calculated by the classical method: the five major aspects (conjunction, sextile, square, trine, opposition) that the Moon forms with the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn; outer planets are not counted. The void begins at the moment the last aspect becomes exact. Rows with a purple background mark periods longer than 24 hours. For live calculation and month-by-month browsing see the Void of Course Moon calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Void of Course Moon mean?

The Moon is void of course from the moment it completes its last major aspect in a sign until it enters the next sign. During this interval the Moon forms no new exact aspect with a classical planet, and in traditional astrology its course is considered "empty".

How many Void of Course periods are there in 2024?

There are 161 void of course periods in 2024, covering roughly 25% of the year and about 2160h in total. The average length is 13h 25m, and the longest single period is 46h 25m.

What should you avoid during a Void of Course Moon?

In traditional electional astrology these periods are considered unfavourable for new beginnings: signing an important contract, making an offer, a major purchase, marriage or starting a journey. They are fine for routine tasks, rest, finishing pending work and review. If a critical action is needed, simply schedule it outside the void.

Which time zone are the times in, and can I see my local time?

All start and end times are given in UTC. Use the time zone selector above the tables to switch every time to your own zone, or choose your device time automatically.

How is the Void of Course Moon calculated?

By the classical method, only the Moon's five major aspects (conjunction, sextile, square, trine, opposition) to the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are considered; the outer planets (Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) are excluded. The void begins the exact moment the last major aspect perfects and ends when the Moon enters the next sign.

Is the Void of Course Moon a bad thing?

No. Being "unfavourable" does not mean unlucky; it only means that new ventures expected to produce results tend to fizzle out during this interval. These periods are valuable for rest, meditation, art, reflection and continuing work already underway.
