April 18/19 is the New Moon in Aries, writes Kim Falconer from her 11th House Blog when it will be all systems go…
Until then, chill with dark moon. You know the drill! Self-nourish, quiet reflection, release anxiety through mediation, dance, yoga, the sea, nature, gardening, martial arts, animal familiars and note down intentions to state aloud on the new moon.
Aries is all about taking action and pushing forward. Where do you want to advance with your life? Rev up your excitement? Check out the house with 28 degrees of Aries and light a fire there! *reference for all 12 houses below*
This New Moon forms no major aspects to any other planets; the emphasis is very much on bringing your yin and yang, your anima and animus, into alignment and moving into a NEW phase of your life. The minor, 40 degree novile aspect to Venus adds charm, curiosity and grace to whatever you focus on.
Note also, this Sagittarius decanate of Aries – robust, independent, feisty and commanding. A basic ‘don’t fence me in’ attitude applies! Ask where you want to EXPAND your life!

LEO: There’s a course of study, a degree or travel (mind, body or spirit) that has your attention.

SCORPIO: Intentions around health, fitness and body awareness are transformational with this New Moon. It’s the perfect time to initiate a new exercise routine, adjust nutrition, drop non-nourishing habits and create fresh rituals that support the life you want to live. Play with this!
SAGITTARIUS: With your ruler Jupiter trine Uranus, and linked to the New Moon by sign, you’ll want a super-size rocket for this fuel! Focus on your desires for romance, art, creativity, play and the joys of the heart be they books you write, pictures you paint or children you raise. Find enthusiasm, and fun!
CAPRICORN: Your question this month is, are you happy with your home? The house itself, the location, the occupants are important, but on a deeper level, think about your sense of roots, connection, sanctuary and tribe. This is where you set intentions for what you really want! Make them true.
AQUARIUS: Ideas for the future roll in at a rapid pace, sparking vivid conversations, proposals and projects. Write everything down! Not all will make it to the drawing board immediately, but they might be perfect for brainstorming a little further down the track. Be ready to speak, pitch, debate and rave!
PISCES: Whatever is happening in your financial world, you will want to tune into your highest excitement and launch from there. That means find your deepest core values and make certain they are expressing in all your money making projects. Above all else, to success, your heart must be in it!
