Spring Equinox / New Moon in Aries

The upcoming New Moon on the 20th March marks the first day of Spring, and the beginning of the astrological new year, as we move into Aries season, aligning perfectly with a New Moon in Aries at 0 degrees, signifying a blank canvas, a fresh start and an opportunity to re-write your book of life. This is the most potent New Moon of 2023 and will be the biggest catalyst for change and growth, this is the start of your new journey, and the other lunar events to follow will be budding chapters in your brave new story. 

We are blessed with two Aries New Moons during Aries Season, the first rising on the 20th March and the second comes in the form of a Solar New Moon Eclipse on April 19th/20th.

These two Aries New Moons will work together, helping bring a cycle into completion. With the March New Moon falling at the start of Aries at 0 degrees and the April Solar New Moon Eclipse falling at the end of Aries at 29 degrees.

Whatever is rising for you during the first cycle will only be part of your story, and the rest will be revealed to you as we close out the second half of the cycle during the potent and powerful Solar Eclipse.

To have two lunar cycles in Aries is a profound gift from the Universe, offering you a second chance at pulling your dreams through into this reality. It is charging you up with its fiery and bold ability to shake things up and get shit done. We are being encouraged to take the leap of faith and to trust that the Universe is guiding us and supporting us through such challenges and transformations. 

Tap into this magickal gift of fire and creation to birth yourself and your dreams out into the world, to take bold action on all that is rising and falling away in your life, and take the leap of faith in knowing that it is ok to let go and make space in your life for new things to bloom. Happiness awaits for you on the other side of fear and the unknown. 

 We are experiencing the powerful energy of the spring equinox, and the awakening of the earth. This is a time of renewal, rebirth, and new beginnings, and the energy of Aries is perfectly aligned with this theme.

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and is known for its bold and brave energy. It is a fire sign, symbolising passion, inspiration, and creativity. During the new moon in Aries, this energy is amplified, making it the perfect time to take action towards our goals and dreams.

The Spring Equinox / New Moon in Aries is the time to start taking action on the seeds that were planted during the wintertime between Yule and Imbolc. The goals and intentions you planted during these colder months and tend to during the spring season will bloom into fruition ready to harvest during the coming summer months and the Sabbats of Beltane, Litha and Lammas will be where you reap your bountiful rewards.

The spring equinox marks the beginning of a new astrological year, and the energy of rebirth is all around us. The trees are budding, the flowers are blooming, and the world around us is coming back to life. This is a time to let go of the old and embrace the new. We can take inspiration from the natural world and use this energy to make positive changes in our own lives.

As we move into this new cycle, it is important to tap into our own inner fire and embrace our own boldness and bravery. We can take risks, try new things, and step outside of our comfort zones. This is a time to let go of fear and doubt and to trust in our own abilities.

The energy of Aries is also about individuality and self-expression. During this new moon, we can embrace our unique qualities and express ourselves authentically. We can let go of the need to conform to others' expectations and embrace our own passions and interests.

To make the most of this energy, it is important to set clear intentions for what we want to manifest in our lives. We can use this time to focus on what we want to achieve and take action towards making it a reality. We can visualise our goals, write them down, and take small steps towards achieving them.

The new moon in Aries and the spring equinox represent a powerful new beginning. Something powerful initiates around the significations of Aries. It is a time to let go of the old and embrace the new, to tap into our own boldness and bravery, and to express ourselves authentically. Let's make the most of this energy and use it to create a beautiful and fulfilling life for ourselves and the collective.

The New Moon in Aries also marks a turning point for the collective shift in humanity and the collective consciousness. Just 2 days after this lunar cycle, Pluto the planet of death and rebirth enters Aquarius on March 23rd, for the first time in 228 years since the French Revolution. Pluto represents transformation and power. It can bring about destruction, endings of cycles, and has the power to birth new creations into existence.

Take note of the massive shifts and awakenings that play out across our planet during this time. Pluto moving into Aquarius is a once-in-a-lifetime energy that is an incredible opportunity to harness powers of change, community, unity, revolution and innovation. These shifts are you to be felt from deep within us, and on a collective level.

It is time to rise, is is time to stand together and dismantle the old ways, we can no longer live in a world that doesn’t serve humanity in a healthy and loving way, there is no room for the old paradigm and social hierarchies. It is time to stand together to co-create a new earth.
