Total Solar Eclipse in Aries wants you to have courage to be you!
We are building up to the biggest Eclipse of the year and for next few years until we have a Total Solar Eclipse in Leo on August 12, 2026. This Total Solar Eclipse in Aries is life changing and invites us to have courage to upgrade our lives with courage, enthusiasm, passion, and action! More significantly, it encourages us to face old wounds and heal ourselves and others.
We already experienced the Penumbral Lunar Eclipse in Libra on March 25, 2024 at 5 degrees and 7 minutes. This was a South Node Eclipse — it was fairly faint in that the Earth’s outer shadow falls on the moon’s face.
The Lunar Eclipse in Libra was not a strong Eclipse; but, in order to have a Lunar or a Solar Eclipse, the Nodes of the moon — otherwise known as the Nodes of Fate — need to be within 18 degrees of the Sun and the Moon. That is why they are like full moons and New Moons on steroids. Often fated opportunites, invitations, meetings, departures, breakups, and news come in a way that can change our lives forever.
The Total Solar Eclipse in Libra is more likely that type of an Eclipse, and its effects could linger through the remaining part of the year. The Nodes of karma are only within four degrees of this New Moon Eclipse, and that means that this is a very fated moon.
There have been several earthquakes recently: The biggest in Taiwan in 25 years, two eclipses in Japan, and a 4.8 Eclipse in Lebanon, New Jersey, which happens to be the date of the Total Solar Eclipse! My friend in California said to me, “We don’t even get out of bed for a 4.8.” It reminded me of that famous quote from the supermodel Linda Evangelista in the early 90s, where she said, “We don’t get out of bed for less than $10,000 per day.” Okay, now!
This Total Solar Eclipse occurs on April 8, 2024 at 2:21 pm EDT at 19 degrees and 24 minutes of the Cardinal fire sign of Aries and is exactly conjunct Chiron, the wounded healer. The moon immediately meets up with Chiron at 2:21 pm, and the Sun follows suit at 2:28 pm EDT. The Sun is strong, exalted, brave, and passionate in the Cardinal and action oriented sign of Aries.
Chiron represents wounds — mostly deep seated wounds that may have been there for years or all of your life. This is a cosmic opportunity to heal those wounds and to initiate a new you with drive and focus! Dive in to facing those wounds and feel allow yourself to experience it. Chiron in Aries is wounds around identity, personal vulnerability, and ego.
The chart has several points in both the signs of Pisces and Aries. Venus, the planet of love, beauty, relationships, and value, entered the sign of Aries on April 5th, where it will transit through April 29, 2024. Venus in its detriment there and is on the chase; but, it is also very enthusiastic. Venus ruled the first Eclipse on March 25, 2024. That was a South Node Eclipse and a Lunar Eclipse, in which the focus is much more on completion and letting go. The South Node represents that which no longer seves you.
This is a North Node Eclipse in Aries and wants you to upgrade and supercharge! It is in Aries where it wants you to believe in yourself and be a peaceful pioneer that wants to make new dreams possible. Mars, which rules the sign of Aries, currently transits in the sign of Pisces, where it is in a pretty passive placement. There is still a lot of Aries to overcome that, though.
In this Solar Eclipse chart, there are six points in Aries and three points in Pisces. The North Node of Karma is at 15 degrees of Aries, which is where you are meant to grow and be fearless; The Moon, which is how you get your needs fulfilled; the Sun, which is how you shine; Chiron, the wounded healer; Eris, the goddess of discord, which fights for justice and inequality; Mercury, the planet of the mind, thoughts, and ideas.
There are also three points in Pisces. Saturn, the planet of constriction, restrictions, rules, and karmic lessons, is merely a degree away from Mars, which rules this VERY powerful Total Solar Eclipse in Aries. That takes away a little bit of the steam. However, it urges you to work harder with the dreams that you feel are unobtainable. Do some of spiritual practice: yoga, chanting, meditation, participating in sound baths, manifesting on your own or with others, prayer, etc. The Nodes of the moon form a quincunx to Saturn, planet of lessons and strucutre. It may feel hard to harness what you are meant to do, but this Eclipse opens many doors.
With Eclipses, there are always endings and beginnings. I have already heard of several layoffs, new job offers, moves, and breakups. I have heard of some very exciting new opportunities, and dreams that people have decided to conquer.
Bear in mind that Mercury, planet of perspective, communication, transportation, and commerce, retrograded on April 1, 2024 at 27 degrees and 10 minutes of the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries, which is the sign of this Eclipse.
It will pass the degree of the Eclipse and Chiron and will station direct on April 25, 2024 at 15 degrees and 59 minutes of Aries, which is the degree of where the North Node is currently transiting in Aries. This is an excellent opportunity to reset, refresh, renew, redo, reconsider, reapply, and reasses how you can really shine with all of this powerful and inspiring energy.
Remember to set new intentions with this truly powerful and invigorating New Moon Eclipse in Aries. Remember that Eclipses bring things to light and make us see things in a way that we never have before. Sometimes, there is shocking news or an event that rattles us and changes our lives forever. They are also excellent for evolving your consciousness and bringing it to a whole other level. I have seen major endings on New Moon (Solar) Eclipses, and I have seen major beginnings on Full Moon (Lunar) Eclipses, as they are very unpredictable and are like wild cards.
You know a lot will happen in a very short period of time, and it can feel pressured and overwhelming. This is not a time to usher ultimatums unless you are willing that there is potential that you can eclipse that person or situation out of your life. If there is something big that you have planned, use Mercury retrograde to assess how you can achieve your goals in the best way possible.
The Solar Eclipse is a great time to do write down your intentions and do The Law of Abundance. Take care a blank check and date it for the day of the Total Solar Eclipse, which is April 8, 2024. Where it says, “Pay to the order of, write down your full name. Where you typically write down the dollar amount, write down, “Paid in Full.” Leave the numeric box blank. At the bottom of the check where you would normally sign your name, write down, “The Law of Abundance.” I wish you much luck!
New Moon in Pisces: Dream the night away!
Hi, Everyone,
It is Pisces season, and it is very important to pay attention to your feelings, intuition, and dreams. At present, there are four points currently transiting in the highly sensitive and psychic sign of Pisces: Saturn, the planet of structure, limitations, and karmic lessons; the Sun, which represents ego and how you shine; Mercury, the planet of communication, thoughts, and information; Neptune, the planet of dreams, imagination, and the subconscious mind.
Mercury, the planet of the mind, changes signs on March 9th, 2024 and enters the Cardinal fire sign of Aries, where it has a fast mind and picks up on ideas quickly. Mercury in Pisces is in its detriment, as it rules the opposite sign of Virgo; therefore, it is dominated by emotions and not logic. Before Mercury changes signs on Saturday, it meets up with Neptune, the planet of dreams, on March 8, 2024 at 10:06 am EST.
Mercury in Pisces is all about how you feel. Your intuition is amplified — particularly with four points in Pisces, which I feel is the most psychic of all of the signs. Saturn in Pisces wants us all to carve a dream and to focus on spirituality and kindness in a broken world. Saturn takes approximately 28.5 to 30 years to transit.
Saturn and Neptune have not been copresent in the sign of Pisces since 1848 when “The Communist Manifesto” was published, and it was just two years after the two planets met up at a closer orb in 1846.
Saturn and Neptune meet up approximately every 35 to 36 years, and the last time they met up was in the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn when the Berlin Wall came down in November of 1989. Neptune can dissolve, and Saturn represents structures. Saturn was in its own rulership of Capricorn at that time.
It dissolved old government restrictions that brought down communism. The Berlin Wall kept the West from having further influence on the East and was the biggest iconic image of the Cold War in Europe. Saturn can represent rules, regulations, walls, division, and structures. Neptune is the dream, and it can also dissolve and wipe away things. It dissolved an old way of being, and the cosmic combo established and manifested a new dream of home and reunion.
At the moment, communication can feel very confusing, and it could be easy to misinterpret people or be unclear in your own communication. Neptune represents the fog, and it can fog your vision and make you not see things clearly. Yet, at the same time, you could get very vivid dreams that are full of psychic messages. Make sure to keep a journal near your bed to remember your dreams.
This is an excellent time for manifesting, as you really need to connect with the theta part of your brain in order to truly manifest. It is important to visualize and have an idea of what you wish to magnetize, but it is important that you connect with the feelings of what the process would be to obtain your goal, and what it would feel like to have it. The more you meditate, sing, chant, and release that side of your brain, the more you will open it to boundless dreams that Neptune in Pisces does offer. Pisces season truly connects you to your dreams and day dreams.
Although all of this Pisces influence can feel very emotional at times, it can also connect you to magic that you wish to bring into your life! If you are an artist, musician, or you want to do something creative, this is such inspiring energy to create! Your intuition will be speaking to you in so many ways.
We are building up to a New Moon in Pisces, and this is an ideal time to work with your intentions, dreams, goals, and plant new seeds. You may feel really drained and tired with Mercury approaching Neptune, and that energy does linger through the weekend in spite of Mercury leaving the sign of Pisces on March 9th. This is energy that connects you to your feelings, and that makes it prime manifesting material.
Bear in mind that there could be misunderstandings, as Mercury does rule communication, and Neptune can be very misleading. Think twice before you speak and realize that others may not be acting clearly. Mars, the God of war, sparks up with Uranus, the planet of the unexpected, on March 9, 2024 at 5:55 pm EST.
We often feel the influence of both Mars and Uranus cycles before they are exact, as they are already so amped up in energy. Think of the huge global outage with Facebook and Instagram that occurred on March 5, 2024. Uranues rules the internet and social media.
That type of influence could induce accidence, violence, impulsiveness, and arguments. That combined with the confusing Mercury/Neptune influence is a cosmic reminder to slow down in how you communicate, drive, interact with others, dealings in social media, etc. There could be power outages, explosions, and big blowups if not careful. It is great energy for brainstorming, but keep your eyes on the road.
The New Moon in Pisces occurs on March 10, 2024 at 5:00 am EDT at 20 degrees and 17 minutes of the mutable water sign of Pisces. This New Moon is a portent of many things to come. To begin with, this new moon is just a degree from where Saturn, the planet of structure and building blocks, stations retrograde on June 29, 2024 when Saturn retrogrades at 19 degrees and 25 minutes of the mutable water sign of Pisces.
Saturn only gets to 19 degrees of Pisces this year, and it will remain at this degree through July 22nd and close in degree through August 12, 2024. This New Moon gives a preview of the lessons with which we will be all be working; as well as the ways we will building at that time.
I cast the New Moon chart for Washington DC, and it occurs on March 10, 2024 at 20 degrees and 17 minutes of Pisces at 5:00 am EDT, as it is the first day of Daylight Savings. Mercury, messenger to the Gods, enters the Cardinal fire sign of Aries on March 9, 2024 at 11:03 pm EST, where it tours through May 15, 2024. Mercury retrogrades on April 1, 2024 at 27 degrees and 13 minutes of Aries. Mercury in Aries is about being courageous to express yourself and learn new things.
There is a stellium of planets in the mutable and fluid water of Pisces in the second house of worth, value, money, income, talents, resources, and creativity. This is a Dreamer’s moon. Saturn is close to the New Moon in Pisces, and it rules the chart with Capricorn ascendant. It reminds you to work with Saturn in Pisces, and it reminds us all of the restrictions of Saturn in Pisces. Yet, on the other hand, Neptune, the modern ruler of Pisces, is also on the other end of this New Moon and is only seven degrees away — urging us all to dream big and boundless! This New Moon says in spite of Saturn’s restrictions, you better work that magic and keep dreaming!
Saturn is the structure, and Neptune is the dream. That is what we are all working with for these next few years with Saturn transiting in the boundless and uncontainable sign of Pisces. Saturn transits in a sign approximately every 28.5 to 30 years; however, it is quite unusual that both Saturn and Neptune are dancing in the sky together, which they have not done while in the sign of Pisces since the mid 1800s.
They will get close together next March in Pisces and travel closely together from June through August of 2025 in the sign of Aries. Saturn urges you to structure and work with your dream while in Pisces. This new Moon is very creative. Mercury is at the world point at the very first degree of Aries and brings and initiating energy. Mercury is still working with Neptune — albeit out of sign. This is an energy where you can really write down and magnetize your thoughts and ideas and begin something new!
The New Moon is always a time to plant new seeds. Write down what you want to manifest. It is also an excellent time to do The Law of Abundance. Take a blank check and date it for the date of the New Moon, which is March 10, 2024. Where it say, “Pay to the order of,” print your full name. On the following line, leave the small numeric box blank.
Where you normally print the amount, print “Paid in Full. Where you normally sign your name at the bottom of the check, print, “Paid in Full.” I wish you the best of luck with this highly psychic, emotional, turbulent, and manifesting New Moon in Pisces! #astrology #horoscope #zodiac
