Full Moon in Aries & the rise of the new Equality

In order to blaze a trail it’s important to travel light.  Let go of your ‘baggage’, you were born free.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ouch that one was a doozy!  Did anyone find this Full Moon particularly testing/messy/tense?  I know I did. There were a variety of difficult aspects and very few easy flow aspects.  Now that the show is over I feel a lot of tension has released, and we can enjoy what an Aries Moon has to share… how about you?

With the Full Moon joining radical game changer Uranus in Aries, squaring up with Pluto, and forming a ‘t-square’ with the Sun in Libra this Moon opens our eyes to the old institutionalized ways of power (Pluto Capricorn) and it’s mis-use, beckoning us to blaze a new way (Aries Uranus) and create positive change.

The last time Uranus was in a Fire sign was the 70′s.  Feminism and consciousness raising groups made a huge impact on change for womens roles in society.  It looks like Uranus in Aries will be picking up where that left off and pushing the agenda with veracity once more.   Women need to respect and value them selves, to take up the standard for themselves, take responsibility and demand their rights.

Hobbling about in heels, being indirect about what we want, or giving away our power, looking for a man to be or do for us just wont cut it anymore.   This Full Moon may have bought a lot to the surface to force consciousness, change and release….especially in the area of your natal chart indicated by the placement of the full Moon.

Less talk, more walk, it’s time for ACTION.

For Men this means integrating those parts of yourself considered unacceptable and usually assigned to women or what you seek in a partner that you may have been projecting. It means valuing those parts of you culturally considered feminine.

For all of us, regardless of gender, it’s ok to be a whole person and express the entire spectrum of your unique self.

Moon in ARIES…

Aries/Taurus Sun+Aries Moon = An Active Routine

This Aries Moon takes us through from the solar season of Aries into the season of the Taurus Sun. This could mean routine activity, like going to the gym every morning, walking home from work..what ever it is, kick off the Taurus solar season by planting the seed of activity now.

When the Moon is in Aries it’s time to take action, get moving, just do it!

Been wanting to get more active?..do it now..out on your bike, or using that gym membership..exercise, it’s just a walk in the park ; )

Action any plan you have been cooking up or procrastinating on..it’s always a good time to strike the first foundation post on ideas you’ve been mentally tinkering with, just make a move, make the call, get.the.ball.rolling.

Natally – Aries ruling a cusp of your natal chart indicates the area in your life where you may need to express a warrior energy, where you need to take the initiative, forge ahead and take risks.  Challenge is imperative to growth, and you’ll always try to out do your personal best.

Sun in ARIES…29 days

Game On!...21 March – 19 April

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Aries is the 1st sign of the zodiac, which means this is the beginning of our new solar year energetically.  Since the zodiac was designed for the northern hemisphere this time speaks of the Sun crossing the equator from the South back to the North, bringing the spark of new life after a long cold winter.  For us in the South, it’s as if we are now facing the Libran time of the Sun being opposite us, so that we are objective and able to see and contemplate what lies ahead, as well as plan as we leave the activity and achievements of the Summer behind.

Never the less we are working with the original zodiac, albeit from a rather distant perspective, Aries…and a new solar year..This month the Initiating fire of the Suns energy urges us to push forward with new plans, while both Mercury and Mars are retrograde, halting the natural instincts of that fiery energy.  This month is a battle best delivered with a lot of forethought and planning.  Do your research and make sure you’ve noted every detail, as more info may come to light when Merc and Mars return to a direct motion.

When the Sun is burning with Aries energy, this can be a great time to rediscover that spark with in yourself that is all about you..what drives you forward, what feeds your spark of life..where and how do you need  to cover new ground and burst forth regardless of anyone or anything else?

Our culture doesn’t often reward this energy in women,  it can be suppressed, subverted, or projected onto someone else to express for us.  Therefore it’s important to draw back the energy, own it and appreciate it.  If you think of it as your sword, do you wear it or have you hidden it..have you given it away, is it sheathed and rusting, or is it shining, at your side and ready to clear the path ahead and push through obstacles? What does this sword look like? What does it feel like at your side, or is it at your back?  Men can also be afraid of this energy in themselves, as the metro masculinity has come into favor..the same meditation applies to the guys.  If you have planets in Aries or Mars strong in your chart, this is particularly relevant to you. High voltage planet of revolution and change, Uranus, is transiting Aries so prepare to be hot wired, like it or not..I’m sure you’ll love it!

Your Personal Birth Chart - Aries on the cusp of your natal chart indicates the area of your life where you need challenge, competition and room to move.  You may fight the good fight in this area and need a lot of space to do so.  Any planets in Aries will naturally be located near this cusp, so this is also the area of your life they will need to express, eg, if you have the Sun in Aries this is the area of your life where you need to shine, express your warrior spirit and incredible strength of will.  Moon in Aries faces emotional challenges head on and directly.  Aries can have a slash and burn, take no prisoners policy..no fuss, a simple, clean, direct and sometimes naive approach to life.  Aries is the baby after all and hasn’t learnt the cunning and foresight of the older signs.

Great for surging ahead with ideas dreampt up during Mercuries stay in Pisces.

There will be a Retrograde from 14th March..seeing Mercury re-visit Pisces from 24th March to 17th April, when it re-enters Aries once and for all.  Decisions are best left until 23rd April when Mercury is out of the shadow zone and back at the point it began its retrograde.  Retrogrades are forays back over plans, bringing to light information you may have missed the first time over..so get your ideas out there as a trial run, or continue to plan and brainstorm, then lock them in after the 23rd April.

MOON in ARIES…for 2.5 days

Sun in Pisces + Moon in Aries = fearless romance enthusiast

The Moon in Aries always brings a warrior energy to the general mood.  It makes now a great time to step out in areas you’d normally shy away from.  Barbs or hazardous ploys from others are fended off much more easily as you’ll either be in the mood to take them on or simply be too hell bent on your own pursuits to notice the gripes of others.

Since this is an early stage waxing Moon, and in Aries which holds the ‘initiating fire’ energy, this is one of the best times to begin a project.  You can start by laying the first stone so to speak..if it’s a business, register the name today..if it’s an assignment, draw up the title page…make that first call etc..

Celebrity Poster Girl Rhianna is a Sun in Pisces with Moon (and Venus) in Aries.  Like the energy of today she is fearless and bounds effortlessly over limitations imposed by others.

Since Pisces is always seeking to merge with ‘the source’..via art, spiritual ecstasy or a bottle of sauce (old slang for alcohol)..Aries Moon adds rocket fuel ambition to this months Sun Moon combo..The urge to merge is on hyperdrive, knowing no fear or boundaries..falling on a weekend the energy could be spent at the disco seeing the divine in the mirrored lights, or it could be spent cycling up a mountain, swimming Bass straight..you get the picture, add some vigor and sweat to find your godhead today…GREAT night for a party that could really go to the next level in feeling the group connection.

Natally – Aries ruling a cusp of your natal chart indicates the area in your life where you may need to express a warrior energy, where you need to take the initiative, forge ahead and take risks.

VENUS in ARIES…

Aries Venus = Thrills & Spills!

Pleasure principle Venus is the nature of our love, attraction, flirtation..Aries is direct, impatient and always willing.  With enthusiasm to burn, this Venus will fan your flames, igniting your sense of adventure and conquest in love and beauty.

Every love is a new love.  Keeping things fresh, exciting and new is the key to plugging into this energy.  Take the opportunity to try new things with partners or friends, meet new ones-friends I mean..and do something strictly for yourself that you’ve been meaning to in terms of pampering..that may include less characteristic pursuits, whatever tickles your fancy really.

Take the lead, go after what you want, and put yourself first.  If these things don’t come naturally to you, this is the perfect time to practice..if they do, you’ll be in your element and over the top..With high ideals firmly in the center of your breast plate, which ones are worth fighting for?

Natally – The house of your natal chart where Venus is found shows the area of your life where you seek as well as impart Venusian qualities..the sign it is found in indicates your style. This will also be an area of life that brings you pleasure, as well as where you like to impart it.

MOON in ARIES…

Aquarius Sun + Aries Moon = Don’t even try arguing!

The Moon begins it’s 2 1/2 day sojourn through Aries under the broad ranging yet focused eye of an Aquarian Sun.  The two energies combined encourage an independent spirit teamed with lashings of leadership..or is that, ‘if you don’t follow my lead I’ll lash you!’

Aries Moon knows what it wants, usually a fast red car..so the mood during this lunar phase is for action and speed..show how you feel, as actions speak louder than words.

Natally – The house cusp of your personal birth chart bearing Firey Aries is an area where you need to strike out on your own, be independent and basically forge new ground..think the wild wild west…go go go!

Which area of your life is ruled by Aries?

MOON in ARIES…

Strike a blow!  Dashing from 2011 to 2012 in a fiery mood, this Aries Moon puts the accelerator to the floor as we hurtle into the unknown, afraid of nothing and wanting for nothing other than movement and action…this is set to be a fast paced year so hit the ground running..enjoy the New Years revelry which should continue for the next day or so until Taurus Moon finally takes us into the chill out zone..until then,  take your best shot and this year, if you go down, go down fighting! ..

Since revolutionary planet Uranus is also in Aries for the decade, I’d say this would be a fight for freedom, a fight for your rights, no matter how much or little you feel they may have been trampled on.  It’s time to stand up and be counted.
