Void of Course Moon doubt
To this question earlier in the thread
"How do you spot a Void of Course Moon? As the Moon moves through the sign, of course the other planets are in motion as well, so I'm having a hard time with how one would figure out whether it will make aspects to other planets before it changes sign."

"The key is that the planet to which the Moon applies is either in an appropriate sign (that is one sextile, square, trine or in opposition to the Moon's current sign) and in a later degree than the Moon or in a very early degree of the 'next' sign and within the Moon's orb at it's current location. For example Moon at 20 degrees Capricorn will aspect any planet in Capricorn at a later degree, or any planet in Pisces, Aries, Taurus or Cancer which is also further on than 20 degrees."
hmm if the Moon is at 20 degrees Capricorn, surely a planet in Scorpio 27 (say) will also form a perfect sextile before the Moon leaves the sign, just as one at Pisces 27 will? Likewise for square and trine?
The above seems to consider only the along-the-zodiac aspects and not the reverse direction. Any reason for this? Lilly's VOC definition does not seem to include aspects in one direction only (could be I understood it wrong, corrections appreciated)
