Happy Aries Ingress! It doesn’t have the same ring to it as, Happy New Year or Happy Chinese New Year now does it? Historically the first day of the astrological year though so if 2010 hasn’t been the year you dreamed and planned for then take out the list and revise your goals.
Aries loves new beginnings. They are enthusiastic and highly motivated. Their passion is inflammable but they tend to run out of juice before completion. That is why they attract earth or air signs as those signs give them a dose of rationale or encourage them to the finish line.
The Moon is in Gemini today. She compliments Aries nicely. Gemini is an air sign and Aries is a fire – air and fire – a good mix don’t you think?
The Moon is in my natal sign and that means it is a new lunar return for me. I like the new lunar months as it gives a fresh perspective for the week ahead. I become excited at the prospect of unchartered experiences and events. It’s always a buzz to star a new lunar month.
In contrast a number nine day suggests conclusions and or resolutions. It is not wise to start something new today. Although revising your resolutions and ending the habits and attributes that are holding you back from achieving your goals might be an appropriate way to embrace the energies of a nine day.
The Chariot is fast moving. The two stallions race at a cracking speed. They are fiery and impulsive both are pulling you in two directions. Which way will I go? You are focused on holding on tight to the reigns – it’s your way or the highway and you won’t be swayed. Steer the Chariot in the direction of your dreams – that’s the only way.
The Star is curious and coy. She is the protégé of Zeus. Her optimism is fetching and your confidence maligned. Her truth is transparent as she prepares for the next phase – spites and lines have come to earth and she doesn’t abide.
Her journey is the only concern – her experiences are like gold pouring from the vessel on her shoulder. I’ve overcome the devilish seduction and now I am poised to take the ride to liberation.
The Empress is our Earth Mother, Gaia. She has committed an unspeakable act of motherhood. He daughter, Persephone prepares for her descent into Hades as the seasons turn to autumn. Gaia promises us that it is a new phase and a new chapter of opportunities. I wonder why must they be founded on human torment?
It is believed that the best counsellors are the ones who’ve experienced, lived, learned and survived the most painful challenges. Empathy emerges from the darkness of life. How can we begin to heal others if we’ve not danced in the shadow lands of despair? Our wisdom becomes the escape route and we become the rescuer – if we dare!
Sometimes I accept those challenges as lessons learned which have taken place fear beyond the reach of theories or books. Those lessons of rejection, persecution and human suffering come with a price tag and transforms into the most valuable tools for self discovery and empowerment. Don’t you agree?
Put the books and theories away today and step outside and play. It’s Sun-day – the first day of the week. Set the tone for fun and enjoyment and give the academic tour a break.
Love, Peace and Happiness,
Julia Ashton-Sayers
