New Moon in Aries 29th March 10:58 GMT
Solar Eclipse
Full Moon in Libra 13th April
This New Moon in Aries on the 29th March is also a powerful solar eclipse. Under the eclipse, Uranus, Saturn and Mars connect with harmonious energy, ensuring that this event occurs in the form of definitive action which allows for revelations and clarity. This Lunar event is definitive. What unfolds now is how the future plays out.
The energetic fingerprint of this eclipse is condensed in Pisces and Aries with both aspects and planets clustering in this region of the chart.
In Pisces, Saturn, Neptune and retrograde Venus, as well as the MC and North Node, sit between 20 and 29 degrees. Neptune, Lord of Chaos and ruler of the oceans is readying itself to transcend the pull of Piscean waters and to emerge through into Aries for a brief stint. It is no wonder then that things feel a little otherworldly and emotions are all over the place.
The planet Neptune is the master of illusion. But mastering illusion does not just enable Neptune to pull the wool over our eyes, it also means that it has the power to dissolve delusions and to wash away barriers to higher understanding. To trust in Neptune’s power is to surrender. To allow yourself to roll with the ever-churning tides and be tossed high and swept low. Life can feel merciless and brutal. Succumbing feels like the only option.
But you do not have to immerse yourself in this process with no hope or anchor. Focusing on practical, grounding activity allows you to weave a rope. The threads of your life which are good, solid and real are the ties you can use to harness Neptune’s power now and to allow it to pull you through the chaos of endings towards a life filled with greater meaning. To transcend that which drains you and deliver you to a place where you are able to receive the blessings from the Cosmos with open hands and heart. To arrive at a point where your feet connect to the ground beneath you and you can stand, certain in your own strength and vitality and raw power.
If you have been feeling lost, weak and exhausted know that by going through these emotions you are overcoming them. Being lost leads to finding yourself. Very soon you will see that hitting the floor of your functionality is what allows you to rise back again, renewed and ready for a bright new start filled with blazing moments of joy and abundance.
In Aries, just a few degrees away, the Sun, Moon, Mercury and Chiron gather. Aries is a future forging sign – ruled by the element of Fire, it creates new life with unapologetic enthusiasm. The first New Moon of the new astrological year promises a point for regeneration and a shedding of ‘before’. The Sun rejuvenates the power of the Moon with pure Aries fire now. The light leaves no room for dingy, outdated draining situations and dour circumstances. This is a moment of high contrast – a cosmic refusal to be bound to anything which leaves room for bleakness. Aries energy fights for what is right and strives to become. To inspire us with the raw power and energy of simply being alive, grateful and filled with zeal for every breath. Thoughts are direct and powerful – forging new ideas in the flames. Chiron cauterises wounds with truth. When there is truth and definition, there can be healing.
Uranus in Taurus makes a sextile to Saturn in Pisces and to Mars, in Cancer. This energises the flow of change and prompts innovative action. Uranus, the planet of shocking revelations, makes its presence known throughout this eclipse insisting unequivocally that things must now change. The markers are clear – a release point paves the way for renewal. The tides are now turning and what is being revealed is shining with the promise of a new way.
Short Guided Meditation
Within you, the whole world exists. The world within you is pure. It is truth. It is light. Take a moment to connect to that inner sense of peace now. Breathe in deeply and as you gently breath out, allow yourself to release anything difficult you have been carrying. Take your time. You have all the time you need.
As you breathe in, let your breath take you to your heart. If there is resistance, let it be. Know that you will get there when the time is right. As you breath out, release.
The world may feel chaotic and overwhelming. It may feel difficult and dangerous. As you breath in, feel yourself rise above all of this. Let yourself float in a space of light and peace. Allow this peace to infuse your being. As you breath out, release any negativity you may be carrying. You have a filter which allows you to control what you take in. You may feel like your filter has not been working properly. That’s ok too. Let it be and watch as it repairs itself now. Your inner light is always there.
Within you is the purity of light and truth. It is simple. It is abundant. You have all that you need. And, in letting your inner light shine brightly, you allow the world around you to become a little brighter. You are ascending. You are divinely protected in this process of change. You have all the love of the universe surrounding you. It is woven in the simple golden threads of your life which fill your heart with a sense of peace and security. As you let your light shine, watch as these threads illuminate and anything frayed or damaged is dissolved. What is left behind is the strength you need – pulling you through.
New Moon Blessing
May you stand in your power
with courage and enthusiasm
