New Moon in Aries — A New You Beckons!
The placement of this New Moon in Aries, gives it an assertive quality. This is strengthened because it is joined by Uranus, Venus and the Sun. As the Sun is in its most powerful position in the zodiac, this means it anchors the Moon.
All four planets are in the first house of the natal chart. Therefore, they create a strong emphasis on you developing a definitive, self-assured core identity. This is particularly so because Uranus shines the light on life patterns that you’ve outgrown. Consequently, you are faced with a dilemma namely, do you remain attached to regressive behaviours? Or, are you prepared to walk across unfamiliar terrain?
To help answer these questions, you may want to take advantage of the retrograde energies that are ebbing and flowing during this month. Currently, the North Node, Jupiter and Saturn, are calling on you to become introspective. During this moment, think about whether your expectations and beliefs might undermine your future identity. It you feel they could, then it’s time to make changes.
The potential for the ‘new you’ maybe further weakened because Pluto forms a challenging aspect to Moon, Sun and Uranus. Consequently, you may experience a tension between two perspectives. Firstly, the desire to retain your positions of power. And secondly, the striking urge to forge ahead with an authentic identity.
