This week the Moon wanes through Aquarius and Pisces toward an Aries New Moon on Sunday April 11th. We are on a visceral journey of releasing as we prepare to rely on our instinct, intuition and spiritual connection to guide us under a darkened sky. In Aquarius, the Moon asks us to let go of that which does not allow us to make radical changes in our lives. During the Pisces Moon, we have the opportunity to cut energetic cords to past emotional baggage. Through the process of following the Moon’s journey (and with a little intention) we can arrive at the Aries New Moon ready to break free on our new path with the support of the Universe.
We are nudged by the planets to put our unique blend of Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energy to work together toward a shared goal as Venus aspects Mars in a sextile. With Venus in Aries, the mission is self-love and fighting for our desires. With Mars in Gemini, the mission is learning, connection and communication. How can these two energy streams co-exist in a way that fuels our soul’s evolution? How can we express these paradoxical facets of ourselves without alienating ourselves?
Energy levels may be lower than usual this week as Mars squares Neptune exactly on Friday April 9th. Mars represents our physical drive and Neptune tends to throw a blanket of haze over us to slow us down as Spirit works its wonders. Do not attempt to force your body to do more than it is able to sustainably do — make lots of space for rest! On the same day, Mercury meets with Chiron in an attempt to help us heal our beliefs about what it means to be autonomous in an authentic way that still allows us to experience connection with others. We may have conversations that help illuminate wounding related to codependency or abandonment issues. Saturn will trine the North Node the same day, signaling cosmic structural support that will help us grow into a higher version of ourselves.
Just before the New Moon, Mercury will sextile both the North Node and Saturn. This can bring a serious tone and strict mental focus on what may need to be adjusted or reconsidered. Use this energy to write down realistic goals and then break them up into smaller action steps. A Venus-Jupiter sextile can help lighten the seriousness of the day if we can feel accomplished in simply having put plans into motion in a small way before allowing ourselves time for recreation. Celebrating our resilience and how far we have come is a great use of this energy.
The Aries New Moon occurs on Sunday April 11th at 7:31 pm PT / 10:31 pm ET. Intentions set at this New Moon will carry more power if they are spoken into being, as the Moon meets with Mercury. A sextile with Saturn tells us that this Moon is speaking to us of desires that are possible to achieve, if we are willing to forego instant gratification, stay committed and work hard. Another signature of this New Moon is the Venus-Pluto square which indicates major metamorphosis in the context of relationships, values, desires and/or finances. With Pluto involved, there can be endings and/or new beginnings that are quite intense. Keeping faith that the Universe is helping us clear out what we no longer need for the journey ahead is the task at hand as we plant seeds of hope in the fertile soil of our soul.
