Aries New Moon

The New Moon at 4:23 AM Pacific Standard Time, will be in Aries.  As it comes into close contact with the Sun, it springs forth anew, ready to begin its 28 day cycle.  As Aries is the 1st sign in the zodiac, it hallmarks additional reinforcement to the theme of “new beginning”.  So what do we make of this New Moon and “New Beginning”?  We look to the other Planets in the mix to answer that question.   Saturn is lending a helping hand if we choose to take the time to get clear about what we believe in.   In the spirit of optimism and adventure, Saturn garners stability if the hard work is done to determine that which we can stand behind.  Uranus is playing a heavy role in this New Moon as it also resides in Aries.  As the Moon and Uranus interact, Uranus encourages us to be our truest self, whether we find societies approval or not.  We all have that part of us that is unique and core to who we are as individuals.  In tribal cultures, young ones are played a song at birth.  This song becomes their song for life and when played, it gives the person a feeling of being home.  As each song is different, it inherently celebrates the individual, yet also recognizing the source of the musical instruments is the same for all.  The all is the tribe of connection and unity, as we say “it takes a village to raise a child”.   Pluto is also chiming into the conversation and asking us to really look at how we can transform if we tap into our roots to see what is stabilizing us and what we may be holding onto out of fear of change.  It no longer serves us to go along with societal expectations and just “go through the motions” like robots performing out of duty.   With Mercury’s recent move into Taurus, when we become clearer about our message, we may choose to deliver the information from a place of calm as our true essence bubbles to the surface.  May you all find the courage to sing your song!
