New Moon, 28 March 2017, Aries

Exact time & zodiac degree of this moon | Understanding New Moons |

Because this New Moon is in the zodiac sign Aries, the energy template for this month is ‘Aries’ – each zodiac sign is a uniquely themed energy template/ palette /archetype /meme /program. Let’s imagine that each of the 12 strands of your DNA is a zodiac sign… Since 2010/11, when Uranus went into Aries, the Aries strand has been getting an overhaul, and this renovation completes in May 2018. All through the 7 to 8 year period of Uranus in Aries, each individual human (Aries represents individuality, independence, freedom and free will) has been given free will choices about how humanity (Uranus represents the collective and technology) will evolve or devolve through the use of technology, i.e. the latest technologies have been the medium through which humanity has been electing its renovated Aries identity – selfishness (the lowest vibration of Aries) or self-honouring and self-integration (the higher vibration of Aries). Technology seems to be a cloak that many hide selfish choices behind, diminishing other people’s opportunities for living freely through imposing win-lose, control-submission dynamics including the increase in bullying, violence, terrorism, sex crimes and war, and self-pleasuring at the expense of others. Whatever happened to ‘for the good of all’?

This New Moon in Aries gives us a chance to turn this around. When we are out of alignment with our true inner power and our self-direction, we start to slide down the Aries vibration, sometimes even forgetting we are part of ‘the all’ in the words ‘for the good of all’. Aries is an energy of ‘me’ and ‘my life path’. Loved ones often do not necessarily like you walking your own path at first, if it means you must leave them momentarily or spend less time with them, but if they rise up like an army against you, pause a minute and check you are not inadvertently deserting them. If you are still finding ways to make time for the loved ones in your life, even if less than previously, with respectful consideration toward them, this New Moon in Aries helps you find a way to stand your ground and succeed, while keeping in mind ‘how can I develop my inner power to forge my way in my own life in healthy competition and/or collaboration with others and “the good of all”?’

When we sit in our heart of hearts, check and double-check our motives, stay committed to the good-of-all, including our own good, we automatically connect in with the hidden web of others who do the same. In May 2018, the renovated Aries archetype will become locked in for another 84 years, i.e. the next time Uranus (planet to do with renovation and technology) is back in Aries. There’s still a chance to make this current renovation an upgrade even though to date the majority choice seems to have driven the Aries archetype into downgrade. Humanity fought long and hard for human rights, women’s rights, an end to slavery etc… do we want past inequity laws back in again? Jupiter making an exact square to Pluto at the time of this New Moon cautions that much is going on behind the scenes by negative power brokers who slip through laws unseen. Do you really read all those Terms and Conditions to each technology upgrade? Reading the fine print is more important now than ever. And this goes for the subtle ‘fine print’ in your relationships with others, which is shown through tones of voice, slips of the tongue and energy dynamics etc… this New Moon in Aries helps open eyes to what’s really going on, both personally and politically, and bolsters inner power and courage to do what you need to do ‘for the good of all’, yourself included.
