The new moon in Aries officially peaks at 2:25AM est on 04/01, 11:25PM est 03/31 ptd. Being the first new moon of the new astro year, there seems to be a lot of pressure and expectations sitting on this moon! Taking place in cardinal sign Aries, this moon is in conjunct to the sun, Mercury and Chiron. This stellium highlights that communication, shadow work and inner child healing are themes we can expect to see this moon cycle. Chiron is nearly at an exact conjunction with this moon, sitting at the 12° of Aries while the sun and moon are at the 11°. These degrees highlight the energy of unexpected turns that may take place, and throw us off our path as it was “out of the blue”. This sudden shift can trigger us, as we may start to question our stability. This tight conjunction to Chiron provides us the opportunity to face these fears by accepting that they are real, and that’s okay! Ownership gives us back our power and ability to re-write the story.
Aries is ruled by Mars, who currently sits in the fixed sign Aquarius. Mars is almost in an exact conjunction with Saturn, which heightens the pressure we are feeling to get things done urgently. However, Saturn doesn’t enjoy tantrums the way Mars does. Saturn desires structure, so when things get tough, Saturn cuts off the supply! This conjunction highlights how we may be feeling collectively; strengthening our boundaries and minding our business. Mars squares off with Uranus and the north node in Taurus, under this moon. This energy brings in the unexpected turns to future plans, but are for the better!
This moon is the wake up call, it is Divine intervention.
Blessed Nu Moon!
