Moon – past, Intuition, unconscious, emotions, nurturing, feelings
Aries (Fire) – Leader, impatient, risk taker, action-oriented, outgoing, courageous

This NEW moon is all about action and initiation. You will be pushed along into passionate action from this point onwards, so look out.  Allow your adventurous side to come out and do something today that you have never done before… create the magic that resides within your heart.

Watch your thoughts, intentions, actions and emotions at this time as everything is very much heightened. You will strongly create in your life that which you focus the energy on.

This Moon is a powerful time for creating new beginnings in your life. In the knowledge that as you work towards your soul’s highest potential, you are working toward the higher good of all. Aries will present the ‘feeling’ of anything is possible.

Honour your own truth during this Moon and remember that every move you make is an opportunity to be authentic. Get grounded in what you want and remember that everything that “appears” to draw you off course is an illusion waiting for you to see through to the truth of why you are here.

Be COURAGEOUS to walk your truth, own your LIGHT and break free from the meme of social conditioning… don’t let others define you.

Make a commitment to live your own life and not live the life of the wishes and dreams of another – be it loved ones, family, your community of the world at large.

This Moon to honour the cycles of creation within YOU and lead from your Heart-n-Soul.

Moon in SCORPIO

Moon – past, Intuition, unconscious, emotions, nurturing, feelings
Scorpio (Water) – Passionate, emotional, willpower, psychic, determined, fearlessness

This FULL moon is a very personal time, a time to go within and view your issues with power.  Do you own your own power, do you give your power away to others, do you mis-use your power to control – and in acknowledging the truth we have the power to transform and change.

The moon in Scorpio heralds a time of self-reflection… owning your intuitive senses/gifts for the greater good of all.  When you take ownership of how you ‘FEEL’… you are then speaking the language of the Universe, and authoring your life’s experiences.

Adding extra depth, desire and intensity. Secrets, truth and loyalties are highlighted.

Scorpio energy helps you transform on the inside, where your experience may be hidden from anyone with whom you do not have a deep level of intimacy and trust.

This inner transformation moves in mysterious ways. You may find yourself needing more quiet time and sacred space. It is important to honour the energies that are moving inside you that may not have words yet.

When you trust and honour this process and open to what can be felt but not yet described, you are investing in the energies of transformation that will help you become something new.

Chiron in Aries – April 2018- 2026

April 2018 the asteroid Chiron has moved from Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, where it has been for the last 7 years, into Aries, the first sign of the zodiac. Chiron symbolizes wounding and healing.

CHIRON in PISCES themes
•    without boundaries
•    self-destructive
•    intuitive
•    disillusion
•    victim / saviour complex
•    empathy
•    telepathy

Chiron will spend 8 years in Aries, this energy is highly individualistic and warrior-like. Chiron in Aries is a much less passive and accepting energy than Chiron in Pisces.

Chiron in Aries may symbolize a time of recognition and anger about the wounding of the Earth and a renewed passion, vigour and willingness to fight for causes related to the survival and healing of the planet.

As we transition into Aires in Chiron, you’ll be learning new skills…
Own your right to be here, giving you an opportunity to getting your needs and wants met, particularly in your relationships, and moving through the wound of life is passing us by and everyone else is getting ahead in their relationships, career and life – except you.

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, for Aries life is about strong will power and loads of self-belief. Courage to go for what you want and trusting it will happen.

It’s all about self-agency, self-belief, and innate self-confidence. Let’s go for it.

This shift into Aires, will bring up issues to work through around healing the blows to your self-worth growing up, and learning how to do healthy self-assertion.

Chiron in Aries can play out:

1 People pleasing
Growing up you never felt you had a right to even be here, growing up in an argumentative, adversarial home life. People pleasing became your “normal’ way of life to stay safe. You became an expert at appeasing others, focusing on their wants and needs to stay out of the firing line. It’s also how you received approval.

2 Disappearing the real you
It’s hard to relax and just be yourself when you’re growing up around conflict. It feels way too vulnerable to let people see the real you. When you did reveal your true self growing up you most likely copped it. Maybe you were shamed, ridiculed or even bullied. You were just being spontaneously you, but the environment you were in didn’t support this. So, you learnt it wasn’t safe to be who you really are.

3 Not having a voice
Not speaking up when you need to, whether that’s in your relationships or career. You’ve settle for far less than you deserve and end up feeling resentful. Defaulting to passive aggressive vibe manoeuvres that basically get you nowhere.

4 Not making the money you deserve
This often plays out as always falling short with money. Or getting stuck in feast and famine cycles around money and abundance. Because on the inside your main expectation is one of lack and never enough. The feast and famine cycles play out continuously in your life.

5 Getting taken advantage of financially because you can’t stand your ground
Deep down your self-worth is wounded you don’t feel you deserve to be well paid or well off financially, and work too hard to prove your worth. Then you’re taken advantage of because other people sense your lack of self-esteem and self-value. Only to discover that other people at work who are doing far less than you are being paid more than you are.

6 Picking partners who just aren’t good for you
The messages you got growing up were that you weren’t good enough, or okay just as you are, you interpreted this as there being something wrong with you, feeling you were lacking or defective in some way, so you jump into relationships too fast.

By engaging in a relationship, who shows you a bit of interest, because you’re relieved that someone is interested in you, there’s no preselection process or due diligence going on. Then the honeymoon phase ends and you realize you’re with someone who’s emotionally abusive, self-serving, or just totally the wrong fit for you. Because you’ve been emotionally starved growing up and don’t love yourself enough, you tolerate all sorts of stuff until the whole thing blows up.

7 Staying stuck and not knowing when to move on
Moving through the wound of developing the capacity to fully self-actualize and not knowing when it’s time to move on and get yourself out of situations that are toxic. So, you cling to people and situations where your emotional, relational and security needs will never be met.

Hoping that one day things will come good, until things come to a head and you’re forced to move on. It’s only then that you can see how bad things really were. You then wonder WHY you stayed and endured with gritted teeth and clenched fists for so long.

Saturn retrograde (Capricorn- Earth) – Boundaries 17th April – 6th September
Saturn turning retrograde will slow down activity, so that better methods and strategies can be developed. Saturn rules the physical and psychological. It produces the rules and regulations by which we guide our lives, our sense of responsibility, and our limitations.

At this time, it’s essential to go back, assess commitments made, relationships, responsibilities and projects started undertaken in the past. It provides the opportunity to reassess what we have taken on, to define boundaries, to finally say NO, to back out of a commitment and to improve the organization of a project. Time to process past karma.

It gives us the opportunity to go back and reorganize, or renegotiate, or commitments that seem to be a source of frustration. Don’t start any new business activity at this time!

Pluto retrograde(Capricorn- Earth)- Regeneration 22nd April – 28 September

Pluto retrograde produces the greatest powers of regeneration. People can have a tremendous ability to overcome major illnesses. The Pluto transit, helps us to eliminate and release the old, outdated and obsolete in our lives. We are urged to let go of attitudes, thinking or communication patterns, security drives, and rigid emotions. It’s a time to undergo an internal form of house cleaning. Many people do seek some form of internal cleansings, detoxifying diets, and disciplines that connect with the inner self.

There is an intense power for investigation. Use this time to assess what reoccurring patterns makes us feel out of control, especially personal. Where and why do we continually give our power away, and under what circumstances do we react so defensively that we elicit attacks from others? When Pluto goes direct, the focus is for gaining control over professional and financial areas.
