NEW MOON IN PISCES How can we see clearly? There will be a New Moon at 09°41’ Pisces (antiscion 20°19’ Libra), a Mutable, Water sign ruled by Neptune (modern) and Jupiter (traditional). This is the fourth of five New Moons on the same degree of the relative signs. New Moons are notoriously the best moment to set fresh intentions for the month ahead. This one falls on the 12th-6th house axis (Pisces-Virgo) so themes such as chaos vs order, compassion vs criticism and wholeness vs perfection come to mind. The New Moon is part of five-planet (Sun, Moon, Saturn, Mercury, [...]
NEW MOON IN AQUARIUS “It was my letting go that gave me a better hold.” Chris Matakas There will be a New Moon at 09°51’ of Aquarius (antiscion 20°09’ Scorpio), a fixed, Air sign on the 29th January, this is the third in a series of five New Moons in a row at 09° of the relative monthly sign. The lunation has Moon peregrine in Aquarius and Sun in detriment in the sign, looks like neither head nor heart know exactly what to do (leaders and people). The two lights are separating from a conjunction to Mercury (also peregrine) perhaps there might have been some arrogant [...]
OOB NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN How much longer must we cling to the past? The OOB New Moon at 09°44’ Capricorn (antiscion 20°26’ Sagittarius) is the 2nd of a series of 5 on this degree of the relative consecutive signs. This is the last New Moon of 2024. The lunation chart is rather interesting for its paucity of longitudinal aspects. The New Moon in fact stands alone, without aspects to the other planets. The King and the Queen of the chart (or the leaders and the people) together, on-lookers at the state of the world. Maybe it’s a WTH moment, wondering what’s happened or [...]
NEW MOON IN SCORPIO Will confusion trump obsession? The New Moon will occur at 09°35’ Scorpio (antiscion 20°25’ Aquarius) and will be the 1st of a series of 5 at that degree of the relative ensuing signs. New Moons are the time when we are encouraged to set our intentions for the month to come regarding the house where it falls in our natal charts. The New Moon is applying a trine aspect to a retrograde Saturn in Pisces, emotions won’t be easy to keep under control this coming month. Mars and Pluto (traditional and modern dispositors of the lunation) are in exact [...]
NEW MOON IN VIRGO Are all the details out in the open? On the 2-3rd of this month (depending in which part of the world you are) there will be a New Moon at 11°04’ Virgo, a Mutable, Earth sign ruled by Mercury (antiscion 18°56’ Aries). A lunation chart with only one planet (Mercury) in the Fire element and heavy (6 planets) in the Mutable signs. This may indicate a lack of optimism but a need to have one’s opinions respected at the same time (Mercury in Leo) together with being overyielding and too malleable (Sun, Moon, Jupiter and Mars in Mutable signs – as well as Saturn [...]
NEW MOON IN GEMINI 6 JUNE 2024 keeping calm may be a problem.... The New Moon will occur at 16°18’ Gemini (antiscion 13°42’ Cancer). This is a very inquisitive, intellectual Moon, hard to pin down emotionally due to its constantly changing feelings caused by its tendency to over-rationalise everything. Under pressure this Moon is not very reliable and commitment issues may surface. New Moons are times when we are invited to set our intentions for the month to come regarding that area of our life which the Moon is illuminating in this lunar phase. People most affected by this [...]
NEW MOON IN TAURUS feeling comfortable isn’t always the best thing…. It’s time to set your intentions for the New Moon at 18°02’ Taurus (antiscion 11°58’ Leo). The Moon is exalted in this Venus-ruled, Fixed Earth sign. A tight applying conjunction to Uranus and Jupiter will add volatility to this Fixed sign lunation, the dispositor of which, rules, among other matters, finances, so expect more disturbing events in the global stock markets as well as news of earthquakes around the world too (Taurus is a Fixed, Earth sign). There is also a separating sextile of the lunation [...]
NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN How long must we cling to the past? The New Moon at 01°32’ Capricorn (antiscion 28°28’ Sagittarius) is the 2nd of a series of 4 on this degree of the relative consecutive signs. With the New Moon making part of a five-planet stellium in Capricorn (Moon, Sun, Venus, Mercury and Pluto) and Uranus R and North Node both in a trine aspect to Venus and Mercury, this New Moon has definitely got an Earthy feeling to it. Cardinal energy is also the most prominent, forging ahead yet keeping doggedly to the rules and whatever they may represent seems to be the theme [...]
