It's a Woman Thing--Transiting Moon and Menses« on: 01.05.2007 at 21:21 [UT+1] »This might gross out the guys, so I just wanted to give everyone a heads-up in the title of this thread. I
haven't seen anyone discuss this yet, but I'm sure it's legitimate to discuss amongst the women here.
I just noticed today (since I started menses a few hours ago) that the Moon is transiting right at my MC at thismoment in time. I went backwards in time by one lunar month, and saw the same transit conjunction the lasttime my menses began. Has any other woman seen the same thing in her Lunar transits?
The chart I'm able to make here must be set at a certain time that is not now.

I'll also share a window image from Kairon that shows the exact conjunction at this moment in time.

Then again, I only looked once and that was because I read your post.

Re: It's a Woman Thing--Transiting Moon andMenses« Reply #2 - on: 02.05.2007 at 18:29 [UT+1] »I'll show you the transit chart for 28 days earlier than the time my current menses began. Perhaps going backfor as many days as there are in your cycle might show patterns, but that's just a guess on my part. Since theLunar cycle (however it is for you personally) tends to complete itself after 28 days, it makes sense that awoman's personal cycle would end up at the same place at the corresponding moment as was the times before.

I also know that there are fertility charts that can predict the right times for conception that are also based on
the Lunar cycle. Since each woman's cycle is unique, it would depend a lot upon her natal chart--at least, that's
how I see it.

I already got my tubes tied,so it's not like I'm going to use this data to conceive. Still, as far as a relative predictor for future menses, it
could be useful in relation to how much a woman knows her own body and is comfortable with these cycles.

I don't know if you are using an oral contraceptive or not. Any artificially moderated periods (and The Pillcauses what doctors call a pseudo-menses) will end up defying the usual chart. If you are not on The Pill,
perhaps there could be a Mars square Moon or something like that which may indicate the possibility ofshortened periods.
I know this is getting into details here, but I tend to have a few very heavy days that could be described as"inconvenient" to say the least. Also, if a whole bunch of women are living together, their periods tend to sync
up to about the same time for everyone. I did notice that when I was on the Great Peace March in 1986.
Everyone had her period the same time as everyone else.
There must be many variations that could happen with the combination of modern medicine or evenenvironmental factors. Still, this is an interesting concept...at least for women.

I have just had my first period in April after having a child in November (During new moon) I worked out I
would get it again on the 13 of this month.

Re: It's a Woman Thing--Transiting Moon andMenses« Reply #9 - on: 03.05.2007 at 01:43 [UT+1] »Okay my new moon theory didnt work out - It was full moon when I had my period - new moon when I
conceived.
Maybe I am just aware of when my period is when the moon is in a certain phase lol.
Sunday 19th of Feb = when I concieved. (valentines weekend haha TMI sorry lol = we played golf and stayed at
a resort lol and I had my period on Vday which was a tuesday and I was tired, crabby and working)Tranists for the day I conceived (19 Feb) T.moon conj. Sat/Plu in the 6th. (pluto on 5th cusp) T. Sun conj. MC,
Mars conj. Asc.
Transit moon for my LMP = 15th Feb, T.moon 4th house Virgo.
So there you go. I had fun pulling apart my charts and looking at my dates - I hope I am not blabbing on
about random stuff or is off topic - I have Merc RX lol!
As for the period side of things I do notice I have a strong period then a light one then a strong one. I wonder
if that has anything to do with the mars/venus aspect. Hmm. I'll mark it out on my calendar.

I've not looked at this info before - I have charted my cycle for timing/temperature/fertility and lunar phase,but not specifically astrologically speaking (house/angle/sign, etc)...
Posts: 14

But to answer your question (kind of!), I noticed with my most recent menses that the moon had crossed theMC and was in the 10th at around the time it started (not sure of exact time). Will keep an eye on this andwatch for a pattern.
Also interested in the Astrodienst charting facility thats been used in this thread - will I find this in "extended
chart selection"? Also, how can I determine a woman's lunar fertile phase (the exact moon phase at her birth)?
An astrologer/naturopath told me mine (disseminating: 4 days after full moon) many years ago. I now practicenatural medicine (and amateur astrology) and would like to know so I can inform women hoping toconceive/avoid conception...
Thanks for bringing up the topic, Cynthpoet

I'd also look for any challenging aspects with the moon regarding those other planets. Please let me know if
there's anything in that regard--or, better yet, you can share your natal chart. That would be great if you arewilling to do so.

As noted, women living together or working closely together will synchronize in their cycles. In a naturalsociety, the cycle would follow the moon and all the women would be cycling together. The dark of the moon
would be when the menses begins. Two weeks later, with the full moon resembling an egg in the night sky,would be the time of greatest fertility, ovulation.

That's exactly what happened on the peace march I was on in 1986 as soon as we got into the California desert
away from major cities. Even though we had a bit of artificial light, the lights went out at bedtime--since we all
had to wake up early, bedtime was early as well. Very few of us would stay up, but for the most part we cycled
together until we got to Colorado. There was a couple of days we did spend in Salt Lake City, but most of thetime we were out in the "great outdoors" which helped all of us with monthly cycles to sync up together.
This personal experience did show to me the reality of your comment. (I don't think they'd tackle this one on
Mythbusters, though.

correctly during those times. Many started describing cravings for high-fat foods like ice cream. But once I left
the situations with a lot of women, my cycle would go back to its normal schedule.
My menses started at age 11 and I suffered terribly from uterine fibroid tumors, which were not correctly
diagnosed until nearly 30 years later. Prior to the correct diagnosis, I had surgery for a condition- endometriosis - - that I did not even have! I figure this is my Scorpio Neptune in the 6th house, making it
hard to get a correct diagnosis.

I am having a hard time getting a correct diagnosis as well. My dr is board certified fertility specialist and she
doesnt know whats wrong with me either. Was reading another thread on here where a poster was asking was
she pregnant. We have our Gemini moon almost in the same placement and she is having problems getting
pregnant as well. A psychic once told me i had a chemical imbalance that would correct itself over time. Not in a
big hurry to get pregnant but if i cant i would like to know that now not later.

now I am convinced that they must be actual Hot Flashes.

That is a definite 28-day cycle. No doubt about that.

I was having three-month courses of injections to stop me getting pregnant for 10 years, but decided to stop

Gender:having them because I was getting these terrible black moods I call 'the black dog'. My husband and I decided
we didn't want children, (he has a daughter from his first marriage and between us we have 19 nieces andnephews , so we can always borrow one!) so he had a vasectomy and I stopped having injections. On theinjections I had no periods.
I found (before I started having injections and now that I'm back to a normal cycle) that I ovulate around the
New Moon each month and menstruate at Full Moon. So it's a regular 28-day cycle with no worries about
getting pregnant. I started my periods around the time of my first Jupiter Return, at age 12, and I always
suffer from terrible pain for the first day. I don't have a chart with a heavy Water influence, so I'm not sure why
it's so bad.
I'm an Aries with an Aries Moon, Virgo rising and Venus in Taurus.
I have Saturn in Cancer and Uranus in Scorpio, but they are the only Water influences in my chart. Could they
indicate anything?
Since I returned to my normal cycle, there have been no 'black dogs' and I'm even-tempered.

I always wondered why i started my periods so early at age 9. Was an overweight child but not obese i got myfirst training bra about 9 months before my first period. As a tomboy i was very upset to learn i would be
bleeding every month.
