Aries season bursts into our lives with energy and enthusiasm that is unmatched. On March 29 we experienced both a solar eclipse and a new moon in the sign of Aries. This is the final eclipse in the Aries and Libra nodal axis, closing out a two year cycle that began in April 2023. Eclipses in this nodal axis will not be revisited for almost a decade.
“Within astrology, eclipses are times of release and truth-telling.” Said New-York based astrologer, Lisa Stardust.
The combination of a new moon and eclipse is significant because in astrology, the moon represents our inner world, while eclipses represent a monumental end to areas of our lives. The theme here is quite literally a beginning to an end. Aries is asking us to walk through fire and emerge as a better version of ourselves.
Aliza Kelly, astrology and Cut contributor, said “the new moon is about turning inward and focusing on what you want to cultivate in your life.”
You can expect an eclipse to shine on the areas of your life where you may need to purge in order to pave the way for a more abundant life.
Aries
The focus for Aries during this eclipse and new moon is reinvention. You are stepping into a time where you are redefining who you are to align with your personal goals and self-identity. In order to spark this area of your life, you will have to let go of dynamics that have drained you or forced you to shrink yourself for the sake of harmony. Now is the time to make bold moves with your appearance and to seriously think about the power you want to claim. You are embarking on a new era, Aries!
Taurus
Taurus, this is a time where you may want to embrace your spirituality and prioritize rest and isolation. Pay attention to your subconscious, especially dreams. Focus on journaling and meditation. You are most likely dealing with something no one is aware of and need to trust your instincts when it comes to your healing journey.
Gemini
New social connections are on the verge for Gemini. Ask yourself if your current community aligns with your interest. If not, be open to new friendships and let go of inauthentic ones.
