After being diagnosed with emphysema and having smoked for over 40 years I have decided it is time to quit. I don't understand too much about astrology but I have read that the best time to get rid of unwanted habits is when the moon is waning and in Aquarius. Can you please tell me when this is? Please? I have an Rx for Chantix and need to start it 5 days before that date. I would really appreciate the information.~Donna

Hi kitchen. Aquarius is between jan 21 and feb 19. You must look at the calendar and see if the moon will be waning in this date. I am Aquarius so I know when it is. Thanks for share it with us. I never heard it about quit bad habits. I will try too. Have a nice day.

The dates you quote are those when the SUN is in Aquarius. The only time the moon will also be in Aquarius that month AND waning will be the day before new moon. Whether or not it will happen at all depends on the relative position of the Sun in Aquarius at that point. The moon progresses through all the signs in approximately 28 days (the lunar cycle from full moon to full moon), so it is less easy to say what sign it is in on a particular day than it is to give the Sun sign (which is virtually fixed from year to year).

Well friend, i appreciate your belief in astrology. But you can try, else its otherwise is the determination with which you can stop bad habits.

I don't know the answer but I did want to stop by and offer my support on quitting smoking. I did it almost 2 years ago, If this old hag can do it. You can do it. I discovered freeze pops, and cough drops. I had one of those when I wanted a cig. When I decided to quit, I started off putting off the first cig of the day. I waited a long time. I also waited for that cig after eating. Here is another hint, change some of your routines. If you always sit in a certain chair, have your coffee and a cig. Don't sit in that chair having your coffee, change that routine, etc. You have an addiction plus its part habit smoking. Good luck you cn do it. I am sorry to hear about the emphysema, like you need more problems.

There's a table of when the moon is in certain signs in 2008 here: http://www.findyourfate.com/astrology/moon-astrology/moonsigns-2008.html Remember that when it is full moon, the moon is in exactly to opposite sign to the sun, so when it is on the wane, will be the next fourteen days (approximately) after full moon. To find when the moon is waning AND in Aquarius, look up the day of full moon for the month (many calendars or diaries have this information or you can look here: http://www.moonphases.info/full_moon_calendar_dates.html ) then look at the next 14 days in the first table to see what day(s) it will be in Aquarius. Good luck. I hope that the waning moon (and Champix and your own determination, of course) makes it easier for you to kick the habit!

Hello Donna...hugs to you. Please get hold of the book Alan Carr's Easy Way to Quit Smoking. I know it's more money but it really works. Read it before your quit date. Best wishes. xxx
