On 29th April, we have a New Moon Solar Eclipse in the sign of Aries.
A solar eclipse happens when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, so that the Sun is blocked from a part of the Earth.
The New Moon usually indicates a new beginning and fresh energy for the coming month. It is traditionally a time for either ovulation or a menstrual bleed, depending on what the woman is in alignment with. For example, ovulating at the new moon is a sign of fertility alignment and calling in a new life form for a new cycle. New Moons classically have great manifestation potential! In keeping with New Moon traditions we should write down intentions and keep our thoughts clear and high vibrational.
With our thoughts, we have the power to manifest and co-create our reality.
Solar eclipses do not happen monthly at every New Moon, but when they do occur every 6 months, this always aligns with a New Moon. This means that the upcoming New Moon in Aries is special. Aries and the Sun are both masculine energies (Yang) and will be temporarily blocked on 29th April. This means that we may want to move forwards quickly, take action and 'fight' for what we want, but the forward momentum will be slower than our intentions.
What is the Relevance of the Sun Being Blocked?
This may remind you of the energy of two weeks ago at the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, when the Full Moon's feminine Yin energy was blocked. This whole time period is called Eclipse Season. In between these two eclipses, we have had the Spring Equinox, which is a day of the year when light and dark, Yang and Yin, masculine and feminine energy are in perfect balance and the new season of Spring is welcomed in. We are called to focus on balance within ourselves, between men and women and relating to the Yin and Yang of our organs and bodies at the Equinox and during Eclipse Season.
How Does This Relate to Aries?
Aries is a masculine, fire sign known as the warrior. It is ruled by the planet Mars, which is also masculine and named after the Roman God of War. As Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, it is associated with fast moving energy, taking action, following your own path and fighting for the highest good. We are being called to step into our masculine energy and be more assertive, whilst also tempering this with the feminine energies of flow and trust in Divine timing. This is because astrological events do not occur in isolation.
During March in the eclipse season, we are experiencing an accumulation of energies.
For example, firstly during the Full Moon eclipse, when the Moon was blocked, we were asked to focus on feminine energy healing.
At the Equinox, we focused on balance within ourselves and in relationships.
And this week, at the Solar Eclipse, when the Sun will be blocked, we should focus on healing the masculine. This might be our own masculine (Aries) traits or within a relationship, whether with a partner or perhaps a father or father figure.
Ending a Two Year Cycle and Beginning Afresh
This Solar Eclipse is all about endings and beginnings. The last time that we had a Solar Eclipse in Aries was on 20th April 2023. Therefore, in order to close out this two year cycle, we should reflect on what we have learned regarding the Aries masculine traits over the last two years.
When we journal or reflect on what limiting beliefs, negative traits or patterns of behaviour we are willing to leave behind, this New Moon will bring in the new energy and begin a new cycle that has the potential to be more fruitful, more aligned with your destined path and brings in your manifestations.
What to Reflect On:
What happened in April 2023 in your life or fertility journey?
How have you developed spiritually, emotionally, mentally or physically during the last two years? Be proud of how far you have come.
How have the Aries themes presented for you over the last two years? Have you taken action, fought for what you believe in, been self directed and assertive?
Do you need to do more of the above or less of the above? Do you need to take more action and be more assertive? Or do you need to step back and trust?
Have a great week!
