We are building up to the Aries New Moon which will fall in full shadow on Friday the 1st of April for us in Australia.
The Aries New Moon makes aspects to the planet Mercury and the minor planet Chiron. So, the spiritual meaning of the Aries New Moon Astrology is related to the sharing of painful memories and experiences in order to heal.
The close conjunction with Mercury, the planet of communication who moved into Aries on March 27th, brings in a more straightforward, unfussy, and heated, possibly even combative, tone to the way we deliver our thoughts. And on the day of the Aries New Moon, cerebral Mercury will pair up with La Luna, combining emotion and self-expression in a fearless, direct Aries way.
It’ll be easier to own our voices and share a bold game plan with friends and colleagues or to speak right from the heart with a loved one. At the same time, there may be a tendency to steer a bit too far into argumentative territory, as Aries is innately competitive, has a desire for a good debate and, occasionally, fierce verbal aggression.
Jupiter, the planet of fortune, and Neptune, the planet of spirituality, are closing in on a conjunction in dreamy, ethereal Pisces, which will be exact on April 12th. This aspect, which hasn’t occurred since 1856 and won’t again until 2188, marks the beginning of an emotional, empathic, and mystically charged cycle. Its effect will heighten intuition, spirituality, and a longing to move through life wearing rose-colored glasses.
While other aspects around this new moon are so action-oriented, this pairing can infuse the moment with more creativity and a desire to swim in our emotions a bit before diving into our next adventure.
With the beginning on the Astrological year turning since the Equinox and as we arrived at the first sign of the zodiac, Aries…. Aries energy is all about new beginnings. As the New Moon brings the start of a new lunar cycle, it is also about beginnings. This combination of energy makes the Aries New Moon one of the best opportunities in the year for thinking about what new beginnings or new chapter we wish to start in our lives.
Along with the beautiful creative manifestation energies that this New Moon provides, there is another energy that is rippling through the cosmic skies currently thanks to the asteroid Chiron.
Chiron is known as both the wounded healer and the rainbow bridge. As the wounded healer, Chiron is able to take its wounds and struggles and use them as powerful portals of healing and wisdom. It is Chiron’s wounds that allow him to work his magic, heal others, and be a source of psychic knowledge.
As the rainbow bridge, Chiron helps us to shift to a higher state of consciousness, allowing us to move from one state of awareness to the next.
With Chiron energy strong under this New Moon, we all have the power to take our wounds and find the beauty in them. We all have the power to acknowledge how our wounds, even though painful, have shaped us into better and more compassionate people.
Sometimes we get so caught up in trying to fix our wounds, bury them, or pretend they didn’t happen, when sometimes all we need to do is allow our wounds to show us a new way forward.
Discovering this state of being for ourselves is what Chiron’s energy can help us to do. It reminds us that some wounds will never heal, and rather than being buried by this idea or overwhelmed by it, we instead, accept it as a part of who we are.
When we allow and create space for this way of being, it helps us to find the strength and wisdom that our wounds can hold. It also allows us to take our wounds and put them to work to help guide others.
That is the magic of Chiron, and if it feels applicable to your life right now, know that this energy is present and ready to serve you.
Along with the generous healing energies that Chiron offers, we also have Jupiter and Neptune inching closer in our cosmic skies.
Jupiter and Neptune coming together is a rare event that will shape the rest of the year to come.
Together, Jupiter and Neptune represent collective awakening and heighten our psychic senses. A New Moon also can enhance our intuition, so we are likely to feel extra sensitive and very connected to higher worlds.
If you have been looking to start a new artistic/spiritual practice or return to one, know that this New Moon will heighten the call. If you have been wanting to explore your spiritual gifts or have been ignoring your own intuition, this New Moon will offer the push you may be needing.
As we are likely to be feeling closer to the veil and extra sensitive under these energies, be sure you take steps to protect and recharge your energy field.
Know that when the night sky is without a Moon, that is our time to retreat within, to listen to our inner voice, and to trust what we know to be true in our hearts.
It is worthwhile remembering that often whatever is troubling us around the time of the New Moon is something we have the power to work through by going within and working on ourselves first.
Going within also allows us to connect to the power that lives inside. We all hold great power within ourselves. Claim this power. Stand firm and true in who you are. Know that you are worthy of a beautiful life, regardless of what wounds you carry. Know that your wounds are portals to wisdom, to helping others, and to creating a more beautiful world.
Walk the rainbow bridge as it unfolds from the depths of the dark moonless sky. Let yourself be carried to higher states of being. Know you deserve whatever fresh start you are looking for.
Love and Blessings ♥♥♥
