THE NEW MOON    —     LAW OF ABUNDANCE

APRIL 05, 2008 11:55 PM EDT
16 DEGREES ARIES 44 MINUTES

HOW:
 
 
THE SIGN:

ARIES
The sign of the pioneer and new beginnings. Springtime. Fire signs are goal oriented, and concerned with future opportunities. Often described as inspirational, fire signs, more than all others, show where you need goals. Aries never forgets the fact that they were born to lead the way. Born directors and organizers. This sign represents the need to become a more well defined individual. The house Aries is on in your chart shows where instinctual activity, freely operating, gives you the opportunity to become more conscious to add to your development as a separate entity. This sign rules the head.
 

THE SABIAN SYMBOL: TWO PRIM SPINSTERS
This is a symbol of what ultimately becomes an entirely private sustainment of reality, or a characteristically personal creation of his world in its varying aspects on the part of each participant in its events. There are here the two sides of self in an eternal pro and con, rejecting all outside judgments in the issues of everyday living and rejoicing in a complete insulation from the passing rewards as well as the unprofitable and self-diffusing superficialities of normal relationships. The keyword is DIVORCEMENT. When positive, the degree is an utter fidelity to self and all its special idealizations of its own capacities, and when negative, and increasing exaltation of shallow interests and a witless pretense of distinction and great virtue. "Sabian Symbols" Marc Edmund Jones.
 
THE DECANATE:

LEO
This is the sign of integrity, recognition, romance, affection, creativity, and play. When this sign is emphasized, we show kindness and generosity to others. We fall in love, and put our heart into whatever we are doing. Time for ambition, independence, and leadership. People may refuse to recognize their limitations under this influence. This sign can be known for its overly dramatic behavior. It rules the heart and the upper spine.

This is the most dramatic of all the twelve signs. The ego development of Leo is powerful. It can be used to overpower others in an attempt to prove your importance; or, it can be directed toward achieving a purposeful goal. Where Leo is in your chart is where you have the power to create, and to make things happen by using your will. Leo is a fixed, determined, fire, goal-oriented sign; all the ingredients needed for success.
 

THE DWAD: LIBRA
The power to relate to others is this sign's greatest concern. Beauty, balance, harmony, equality, and justice are important where this is in your chart. This is the union or marriage sign of the zodiac; and, the soul can no longer function in the 'me' consciousness. It has to become the 'we' consciousness. This New Moon will let us know where we need to bring things into balance. What about relationships? Are we being fair? Is this area one-sided? All lessons of Libra involve the realization and integration of opposites, particularly those contrasts found within personal relationships. The primary purpose of this sign is one of sharing-sharing ideas, sharing experiences, sharing your life---with others. The house that Libra is on in your chart is where you need to develop a healthy balance between personal goals and respect for the goals of others. Libra shows where you need relationships, which offer feedback, which, in turn, help you develop into a more objective, "other-oriented", individual.
 
RULERS:

MARS\SUN\VENUS
At the time of this New Moon, Mars is in Cancer at 13 degrees. This is a critical degree, meaning that any Planet sitting on a critical degree has more intensity. Therefore, the meaning of this New Moon in Aries, ruled by Mars, has a little different tinge than the normal Aries quality. Aries is "I AM". This Astrological year begins with, "I AM Family". I think it is asking us what we care about. What about security, lifestyle, eating habits, and all the things that make us feel safe? This New Moon sets our intentions for the year. We are going to be more concerned about the economy, our homes, and security. It is not going to be a Me! Me! Me! year. This goes along with Saturn in Virgo for the next couple years. Settle down, and fix the situation that you are in. Make your life better with what you have. Venus is in the last degree of Pisces, and we have to come to terms with our values. What will make you happy? That comes from within. This may be the year that you find the happiness you want, not by external measures, but by an inner journey. That is the message from Venus at the last degree of Pisces.
