I just came across a brief article on John Frawley's web-site that I find intriguing. Apparently, William Lilly said that, with the Moon VoC, "things go hardly on." Frawley opines that modern astrologers have misinterpreted the word "hardly," equating it with its modern definition of "scarcely," and have concluded that Lilly meant nothing happens until the Moon makes its first aspect in the next sign. Frawley points out that "hardly" in Lilly's time would have meant "in a hard way," so what Lilly really meant was that there would be difficulties during this period. I've seen it written elsewhere that the Moon becomes something of a "free agent" when VoC, but not that it is particular challenged. The general idea seemed to be that it's "taking a breather." Any thoughts on this?
