NEW MOON IN ARIES: BOLD

You know that old quote “Fortune favors the bold”?

 Well, Virgil wasn’t lying.

We’ve got a white-hot New Moon in Aries happening on Thursday. I’m sure that you can hear the sizzle already.

This isn’t hard shift energy wise; in some ways this New Moon is taking the path that Mercury took last week; a trine to Saturn, a square to Pluto and a conjunction to Uranus (in that order). Never the less, we spent most of March living in the Pisces haze, which buffered some of the blows that the Eclipses may have dealt us. Now we need to be wide-awake and present. This New Moon is serious business; we can wake up and make moves, or get dragged along.

Because of the fact that this New Moon makes a square to Pluto and a conjunction to Uranus (yes, bringing up THAT old cardinal cross combo) it could make most of us feel wary and cynical. Yes, I know we are used to the whole shake and break thang. However, this New Moon feels different now. I think perhaps because we are all different now. I think rather than Pluto f*#@ing with us, I think Pluto is involved, desperate for us to walk away from what just doesn’t fit anymore. How can we live out the promise of this New Moon if we are doing the same old thing, living out the same old story? I think Uranus here will be the usual wild card, but I think by reveling to us our super power, the bolt of divine energy that can rev us up.

The real ace in the hole here is Saturn’s involvement. Saturn is going to lend us the tools, and give us the patience to move ahead, and to pay attention.

In a nutshell, this New Moon is all of us on the brink. We are washed clean. We can do anything.
