Aries Initiation Moon
Art @vagabondwho
Aries new moon, thy name is initiation. We rise to observe the cycle incoming, the new astrological year and the next season of our lives amid the strains of wider revolution. The noise is not going away and neither its challenge to our well worn out status quo. This year of transformation is incremental, relentless and deeply personal. None of us still here can avoid, outwit or ignore its urgent imperatives.
The moon rebirthed amidst the deep broiling of solar flares as she met with her lover the sun. We are wired to feel these blasts whether we choose to observe them or project them - or not. Increasing in frequency and power, their discombobulating rays are disrupting our regular programming as well as the tech we depend on. None of it works without the alternating currencies of electricity and power. Check your connection to the grid and the matrix alike. Its disruption will only continue to force our hands and crackling hearts.
Aries shouts about inception and charges the field. It leads by its own example. Calling to our deepest I am, the true self that is not borne of imitation or cheap facsimile and does not play at pleasing systems beyond its own. Authenticity begets personal power provided you can claim your full spectrum of shadow and light. There is no more turning away from its whole truth.
Sandwiched between Merc and Chiron, this new moon conjured the tales we tell about ourselves and the ones we come from. Forget the shiny reframe or wholly fictitious accounts, none of that self serving shit sticks for long. Instead cultivate your growing tip and know that you cannot tend its unfurling while ignoring your roots and stem.
This new cycle conjures courage from fear, rewarding brave bold leaps of faith and a commitment to future focused learning. Everything is teacher and everyone is on the sharp trajectory of this curve. Forget what you think you know. Listen to the song of your bones and the deeper humours within. Orient yourself to the future and your twinkling north star.
There is nothing so brave in the whole world as a candle daring to live on in the wind
