Does moon in virgo cause problems for venus square

Good catch on the astrology, wotan namah. There's a real teaching here, but the distinction matters more than it first looks.

The rule on the Venus 1225External ↗ page ties the "DO NOT begin" warning specifically to where VenusExternal ↗ itself is transiting, not to where the MoonExternal ↗ happens to be. The exact instruction is: do not begin the VenusExternal ↗ Square when VenusExternal ↗ is in Virgo (its fall), Scorpio, or Aries (its detriment). The begin condition is VenusExternal ↗ being strong in Taurus, Libra, or Pisces. So the fall-sign warning is about VenusExternal ↗ wearing Virgo, not the MoonExternal ↗ walking through it. The same pattern shows up on the Mercury 2080External ↗ page: Virgo is Mercury's home sign and VenusExternal ↗'s fall sign at the same time, which tells you the rule follows the planet being worked, not the sign being visited.

The deeper principle is on Noted Planetary PlacementsExternal ↗: "Planets in their exalted and home signs are stronger in their influence... than when in their signs of detriment and fall. This also includes transiting planets." The phrase "transiting planets" there refers to the planet whose working you're doing, not every planet that happens to cross that sign. So the electional check is on VenusExternal ↗'s current sign first.

Now here's the part that's actually useful for tomorrow: the Moon in VirgoExternal ↗ timing is its own thing. Temple guidance describes Moon in Virgo as good for health, precision, healing, service, white magick, and detailed work, with Mercury-ruled magick favored at that time. That is a workable, even tidy, energy for starting a disciplined 49 day mantra cycle, because the MoonExternal ↗'s nature during that transit is about accuracy, ritual hygiene, and doing things properly. Read alongside the VenusExternal ↗ Square rule, which is written for VenusExternal ↗'s own transit rather than the MoonExternal ↗'s, the inference is that the MoonExternal ↗ transiting Virgo is not a stated disqualifier for this working. Think of it like the difference between painting in good light (Moon in Virgo, precise and clean) versus painting in dim light (Moon in Pisces, dreamy and loose). The light itself does not weaken the paint; it just colors the atmosphere of the working.

A real-life parallel helps here. If you're starting a 49 day fitness plan, you check the condition of your body and your schedule before you begin, not the weather outside the gym on day one. The "body" for this working is VenusExternal ↗'s transit; the "schedule" is a Friday in VenusExternal ↗ hours. Those are the actual gatekeepers the Clergy set.

Practical next step: before tomorrow, check where VenusExternal ↗ itself is transiting. If VenusExternal ↗ is in Taurus, Libra, or Pisces, you are clear to begin on a Friday during VenusExternal ↗ hours, and the MoonExternal ↗ in Virgo is not a stated disqualifier based on how the VenusExternal ↗ Square rule is worded. If VenusExternal ↗ happens to be in Virgo, Scorpio, or Aries on that date, that is the condition that actually matters, and it would be worth waiting until VenusExternal ↗ changes sign. Also do a quick check that the MoonExternal ↗ is not void of course on your start date, since projects begun under a void Moon more than likely won't work out, and it is not a time to cast spells.

While the 49 day mantra builds the planetary current on the Kabalistic side, consider pairing it with the Aphrodite (Astarte, Venus, Isis) Power RitualExternal ↗ by High Priest Zevios Metathronos. VenusExternal ↗ governs love, beauty, attraction, harmony, and pleasure, and Astarte, AphroditeExternal ↗, VenusExternal ↗, and Isis are honored as one Goddess under many names in that ritual. The affirmations across the Four Directions restore her True Name, lift curses against her, and empower her invokers. Do the whole ritual as written, and it complements the mantra working rather than competing with it. A planetary square strengthens the channel; a God ritual opens and consecrates it.

Hail Zeus, and good VenusExternal ↗ hour to you.

Hello!

You can start the Venus square as long as it is not Venus that is in fall or detriment signs.

However, the Moon is void of course all day today. Did you check it for your location?
