Aries Season – A time of new beginnings and reinvention

As the Sun moved into the sign of Aries on the 20th of March, it is a time for realising aspect of our life that has been outgrown. It is time for growth in how we are dealing with the world. People and resources will be drawn to to us to recognise and take advantage by establishing a win-win situation for all involved. When the sun enters into Aries it begins a whole new astrological cycle for everyone. Mercury also moved into Aries and with this, the accuracy of our perception returns. Now it is easier to focus, get clear on our goals and take the necessary steps to move forward. 

Be decisive, focus on your ideas and if something needs to be said, then say it! You might feel an incredible desire to change something about your life. Perhaps you change your looks, your image, your job, your residence or whatever you have been thinking for a while. It is certainly a time for allowing you’r independent spirit to shine, being courageous and believing in yourself that you can achieve whatever you set your mind.

There are a lot of energies at play and as Pluto moved into Aquarius on 23rd March 11.24pm (AEDT) we are moving toward a dynamic change and at times the pace can and will be overwhelming. It is very important for each of us to follow our path regardless of whether others judge or encourage. On our heart level I believe we know that humanity is pushed toward change and transformation! What we don’t know is how these changes will plan out in our individual life and how it will impact us on a personal and collective level.

Contemplating on the changes you wish to implement, you may have deep conversations with partners, friends or trusted advisors. On the 26th of March, Mars moves into Cancer, Mercury joins Chiron and deep feelings can bubble up. You are likely make decisions based on your instincts. While Mars is in the sign of Cancer actions will be based more on your emotions. Knowing, honouring and nurturing yourself will be very important. You can only build a successful future for the long term if you are willing to attend your own personal needs first. Build outer success from nurturing and honouring your “whole inner being” on the physical emotional, spiritual and heart level. On the 29th March, Mars joins the Moon that can stir up your emotions, so have clear boundaries, because Uranus semi-square Mars can produce some sudden actions!

6th of April, the Libra Full Moon can bring unrealistic expectations as the Moon quincunx Uranus. This can make us a bit aggressive “flying off the handle” while the Sun joins Chiron can magnify some insecurities that we thought we already have dealt with. Our self expression will amplify on the 11th of April as Venus moves into Zero degree Gemini creating a flow with Pluto. The compatibility of air signs – Aquarius Air builds on the Gemini curiosity – brings opportunity for transformational conversation that you may need to have with someone. There are subtle spiritual energies happening behind the scene between Neptune, Uranus and Mars that brings deep intuitions and higher awareness.

These will intensify for a day or two, then on the 14th April Pluto and the Moon joins in for an even higher inspiration that can assist creating from a higher source. 

20th April Pluto collides with the Sun, Moon and the North Lunar Node. Can be an intense emotional experience that tests your strength, where you may need to turn inward for answers. Try to tune in what comes up from “within your inner self” and  this will only be possible if you know and understand your essence. If you not sure who you are, these alignments will bring up tensions that create a need to look deeper within yourself and to bring major changes in your life. You will need a kind of self control and a “live and let live attitude” otherwise power struggles can make quite a dent in your psyche and in your physical body. 

When something does not work on the outside you must turn within for answer and rebuild from within. If you don’t know where to begin, physical exercise is usually a good start. Something that you enjoy doing. Remember that breakthrough’s comes after breakdown! Life is a continuous rebuild and rebirth. Some things must die, allowing room for new things to be born. And reflecting back to where we have started, let the Aries energy bring in the new cycle and create from the desire and your will a life that you know you deserve.
