What to do during Void of Course..

If you're at home, use the void of course period to get some sleep or to rest, you'll have a very good and deep sleep. Clean the house, eat, watch television, pay a visit to someone sick. Do those tasks and activities that you usually don't have the patience to perform.

Pray, meditate or go for spiritual pursuits. The mind is naturally turned inside out. Unwanted thoughts come in this period and hence a spiritual bent shall save you from unwanted troubles and deviations. It is not a proper time to do astrology, at least not those branches of astrology that require one to reach a very specific goal in life.

Void of Course in Natal Chart

When an individual has a Moon void-of-course in his Natal chart, that Moon is placed late in the sign. Late degree planets are indicative of qualities, characteristics and traits that are well developed, honed almost to perfection. The emotional responses of a void-of-course Moon individual are almost those of a saint or monk or sage or similar religious person learning the art of detachment in order to find enlightenment. With less attachment it is easier to navigate through life and to form fewer bonds.

In Horary Astrology it is represents a person without any objective purpose, one who abandons himself to aimless endeavor.
