A New Moon of Fertile Courage March 27-April 5

 

What are you waiting for? This New Moon in Aires is a call to arms, a time to take action, in spite of fears.  It is a moment to engage ‘beginner’s mind.’  The lunation is the first seeding of the Astrological New Year, goading us toward more conscious choices, in spite of uncertainty.  Last week, you had my poetic take on ‘not knowing,’ this week you have Stephanie Austin’s* description of ‘not knowing’ as “The threshold of creation; only by suspending our opinions and beliefs, judgments and concepts, can we create something new.” (*Stephanie Austin is a knowledgeable Astrologer, with the blog- EcoAstrology.)

As we head outwardly into this new life, we continue re-winding the inner dimensions of the heart. With Venus Retrograde in Aires, you may notice your energy unexpectedly dancing with old relationships, reviewing partnership expectations, and re-working decisions that have held your value in check. Expect aha moments of intuitive sight into these areas as Mercury aligns with Uranus.  These two planets, working in tandem, support the personal, smaller mind to connect to the larger, universal mind, taking us outside of habitual thought. Make this part of your Spiritual Warrior tool-box.

As your thinking leaps out of old boxes, renegotiate your commitments to yourself. The philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer wrote, “Talent hits a target no one else can hit.  Genius hits a target no one else can see.” Only you can see your genius, and execute it the way it is to manifest. Commit to yourself in ways you have never allowed before.  Feel the extra cosmic support in your genius-execution this week; again April 28, and May 9. Follow your passion as you would the North Star.  With the on-going T Square of Uranus, Jupiter, and Pluto, we have support for major consciousness shifts. It may not be an easy time, but with wit, wisdom and patience every step you take will be a blessing for those who are yet unprepared to make this journey.

Your Practice This Week:  Do some groundwork for a new pose.  Choose one that challenges and intrigues you.  Ask what you need in order to execute it well.  Does it require more arm strength? Elastic hamstrings? Open hips? Start the prep, remembering that’s why we call it a ‘practice.’ Break it down to its physical components, its mental and emotional demands.  Conquer fears by moving into it slowly.  Use support systems of walls, blocks, straps, and friends. This is the Yoga-Journey that changes our lives, enlivens greater consciousness, and reveals the intimate heart.

Your Birthday Week: Signals new life, one where you take on deeper stewardship, and courage.  Your faith has been quietly expanding in facing the unknown, and as a result-you stand extra tall. Acknowledge what you have been crafting, despite difficulty. With Sun and Moon in Aires, ruled by the Warrior God, Mars, and Saturn close to the Galactic Center, you will feel the power of inner structures broadening a deeper consciousness. Think Spock of the Enterprise… “Have peace and Prosper,”
