The Symbolism of the New Moon

The New Moon is commonly known as a time to initiate beginnings. Something to also be mindful of is that when the new Moon occurs, it not only begins a new cycle, but also ends the previous phase. We are reminded to reflect on the cyclical nature of reality, to see that every beginnings and ends are in a constant relationships, because every beginning is an end, and every end is a beginning.

In astrology, Sun represents spirit whereas Moon represents  physical and emotional body

 What does it mean when these two conjunct? One of my teachers speaks of the New Moon as a gestation period. It is the right moment when the physical and emotional body can rest and reset in the womb of one’s spirit. No separation exists during this phase.

There is significance in any sort of conjunction, which is when separate elements join one another in order to continue on their path of perfection. The Sun and the Moon, which were recently in union during the full phase of the lunar cycle and then separated, join one another in order to continue on their path of perfection. The Sun and Moon combine and separate themselves, only to recombine in a continued and an everlasting cycle.

This is the relationship - the alchemy - between spirit and matter that can be consciously attuned to if we take heed of the magic of the New and Full Moon cycles.

From a psychological perspective, the Sun represents awareness and the expression of light that emanates from Source. The Moon represents our emotions that reflect our experience of that light. The new Moon can bring us into a careful investigation of how our emotions continue to ebb and flow within the steady light of awareness.

Why Every Next New Moon is Different

Well, \every Moon cycle is in a different sign of the zodiac, which means not only will have its own particular flavor, but it will exist somewhere different within your personal birth chart. Each iteration of the new Moon brings a specific invitation wnd energy in your life.

Why the New Moon Affects You

The Full Moon is characterized by the Sun which opposes the Moon and which illuminates "what is going or not going well" explains Zaza, in your new intention, your new start or your projects. When the New Moon increases in energetic power for 15 days, the Full Moon has its full power as soon as it opposes the Sun, on the evening of the Full Moon, then gradually descends in terms of energies, over the following 15 days.

What to Do During the New Moon

For centuries, the new Moon has been considered an ideal time for seeding things. As such, it is often talked about as the time to set intentions for the lunar cycle that is being birthed. Lesser known is the fact that in many cultures, the Moon wasn’t considered to be “new” until her light returned from the phase of observable darkness.

This by no means implies that we should discontinue setting intentions during the New Moon. However, this knowledge enables us to experience the dark phase as an invitation to feel into the cycle from a more embodied perspective.

New Moon Rituals

The New Moon is "a new beginning" and it is also an opportunity to take stock of our intentions, desires and projects. You can write them down on a sheet of paper, “fold it and keep it under our pillow,” . We can also take advantage of the New Moon to recharge our crystals in order to “launch all our projects” specifies the astrologer.

You should return to this orientation with the New Moon every month. This time is like being in the womb, the place of gestation, receiving the nourishment of being in the dark, and connecting with something more than myself in order to go on the journey of actualizing at the next Full Moon.

Full Moon of March 25, 2024: how will the Moon and the eclipse impact astrological signs? (III)

(continuation of this previous post)

Virgo: trust yourself

The Full Moon in Libra gives you the opportunity to obtain tangible and visible results on choices correlated to your dreams. However, there is still a long way to go and you are invited to continue to focus on your qualities. All your stagnation or reversals often come from a little imposter syndrome that this eclipse wants to send back to its home. Free yourself with full confidence.

Libra: a rethinking is necessary

On March 25, 2024, your powerful annual Full Moon is an eclipse and plunges you into a momentary fog that requires you to rely on your inner compass, spirituality and intuition to get through it. If your relationships are still toxic, unbalanced or secretive and the other person is hiding the truth from you, you will have no choice but to find out. These achievements may be difficult but they are necessary. Your view of the world changes and you increasingly accept its flaws and imperfections, as well as your own. Not everything has to be beautiful, but everything has to be true.

Scorpio: the start of a beautiful story?

The Full Moon of March 25 destabilizes you with its eclipse but it is an energy of renewal that you appreciate. Much more optimistic, you will be able to show your best side to others and seduce with your most beautiful smile without being stingy with attention or compliments. A seemingly light flirtation could be the start of a long and beautiful story and, if a reunion with an old love happens, you will be more open to forgiveness and discussion. You now know which foot to dance on.

Sagittarius: you are in luck

The Full Moon in Libra intends to permanently distance you from anything that harms your development. A new meeting, a passion that is revealed and even the formalization of an already existing relationship towards the next stage, will be topical. Luck in love is also determined to push you towards your most joyful and rewarding tomorrow. Take your desires for realities as beautiful as the colors of the rainbow.

Capricorn: you become stronger

The Moon in Libra is an eclipse. It teaches you to compromise with your authority figures. Your bosses, your dad or somewhat dominant partners will not resist your new tact and sense of constructive dialogue. You learn to negotiate and split the pear in two without devaluing yourself. All your old ways of communicating and acting melt away like snow in the sun and you strengthen your bonds, associations and partnerships.

Aquarius: there is still tomorrow

The Moon in Libra and its energy suggest that you lose your memory in order to reset all your counters. The planet Pluto and its great transformation are with you to help this eclipse illuminate the areas of your unconscious which still had limits. Now, like the hermit's lantern, a light guides you. By moving forward slowly but surely, you are leaving a very toxic bond. Empower yourself because the best is yet to come.

Pisces: you change

On March 25, the Moon is in an eclipse that makes the changes in your life more and more palpable. This time you are not dreaming and a big decision has to be made. This return to the material world is only good for you if you maintain confidence in yourself. Follow your desire to move or redecorate and this other who offers you a peace agreement. If you feel the need, don't hesitate for a second to get help from a psychologist or a professional. You create your reality.

Full Moon of March 25, 2024: how will the Moon and the eclipse impact astrological signs? (I)

The first Full Moon of spring, that of March 25, 2024, occurs during a lunar eclipse. Powerful energies, coupled with that of Libra, the moon sign par excellence. An explosive combo we will explain in details.

Spring has arrived with the equinox and Ostara on March 20, but already a first Full Moon coupled with an eclipse has reshuffled the cards. The Moon will be full on March 25, 2024 at 8 a.m. Paris time, the energies the strongest will therefore be present during the night from Sunday to Monday. What does she have in store for us?

What does this Full Moon in Libra have in store for us?

This Full Moon of March 25, 2024 is placed in the opposite sign of Libra (the Sun is in Aries, it is the start of the zodiacal year), in "a penumbral lunar eclipse". According to our observations, it encourages “new relationships, pushes us to move forward and break free.”

During the last days of this rising Moon, you will feel the wind of revelation, awareness and the unexpected arriving. We see in this lunation a conclusion, a last goodbye to “everything we have left, released, liberated, cried, finished over the last 6 months, since October 2023”.

With thidss Full Moon in Libra, new desires and new relational choices open up. You can help and love another, but more at the expense of your personal love. The sacrifice is over. You now know how to set your limits.

The negative effects of this Full Moon: watch out for breakups!

First eclipse of the eclipse season of 2024. “It sheds light on and in our relationships” by shedding light on problems, particularly relational ones, Zaza develops. Placed in the sign of Libra (in the South Node), it invites us to let go and let go of the past.

We no longer seek to be validated by the other, this is what this Full Moon in eclipse changes and which could produce sparks. But who says sparks can also mean meeting and love at first sight! Whatever the case, our relational patterns are intended to change during this lunation; it is the time for renewal, especially in our hearts and our feelings.

Full Moon Eclipse: why is the Moon red?

What exactly is a Full Moon eclipse? From an astronomical point of view, a lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is placed between the Sun and the Moon. In these moments the lights emitted by the Sun are obstructed and do not reach the Moon, except the color red, the color with the longest wavelength is the only one to pass through the Earth's atmosphere and reach the Moon, thus tinting it red.

Starting March 19, 2024, 5 zodiac signs will see their relationships improved, as the Sun enters Aries (I)

The spring equinox signals renewal in the northern hemisphere. 5 zodiac signs will see their relationships improved in the coming days:

1. Libra

For Libra natives, I invite you to give yourself more time in the coming days to refocus and anchor your soul. Incredible opportunities for growth and newness are on the horizon in the weeks to come.

However, a big part of this involves making sure you are clear about where you are in your life and what you want and need in love now. You have come a long way making different love decisions.

It's not always easy, especially when you're still working through your feelings about trying to keep the peace and make others happy. In the coming days, a breakthrough will occur as you find yourself in a moment of calm before the storm, finally realizing that the fresh start you have been seeking has always been available to you.

On March 20-21, the Sun will move into Aries, highlighting your romantic sector, while Pisces energy will activate themes of determination and well-being. This is a pivotal moment for you, but you need to give yourself time to experience it. With the lunar eclipse in Libra just a week away, followed by the solar eclipse in Aries, you naturally know that major changes await you.

In the coming days, you can begin to see how to prioritize your growth and healing as concrete steps to attracting and creating this great love. Don't be afraid to shake things up, because it's likely that whatever you choose will create waves, but it will also help take you to where you're meant to be.

2. Virgo

For Virgo natives, a great desire awaits you as you get used to this new energy. This will help bring about some important moments of realization in your love life, allowing you to create more of the commitment you are looking for. Even if you are very clear about what you want from love, you may need to give yourself time to absorb some lessons going on in your relationship.

If you're feeling frustrated or wondering why certain themes keep cropping up, this is the sign to step back and see what the universe is trying to reveal to you. By being open to lessons from the heart, you will be able to direct your relationship in a more committed direction.

The combination of Aries and Pisces energy focuses on your romantic life, intimacy, and transformation. This can help you not only attract someone new into your life, but also navigate the growth moments needed to get you and your partner feeling on the same page again.

On Friday, March 22, Mars will enter Pisces, joining Saturn and Venus. This will create a powerful surge of energy that unites action, intention, and wisdom to help you fully understand what you need to do to feel more peaceful and satisfied in your union. Although it may tempt you to look beneath the surface of things, it is also the only way to create the solid foundation of love that you desire.

8 Different Types of Soulmates Everyone Will Meet and Love in Their Life (II)

Soulmates serve as our mirrors. What we see in another soul reflects our own soul.

When we are able to see other souls as "companions", (including our enemies), as members of our family who are there to teach us life lessons, our entire perception and relationship with others other people changes entirely.

Different Types of Soulmates

In our language we have the word “friend”, and the word “soul mate” which is essentially romantic in nature. But how would you describe someone who falls somewhere in between? Someone who is more than just a “best friend,” but lacks the romantic attraction of a “soul mate”?

We need to create new words to express these relationships we have with others. Here are some words that help distinguish these deep connections we have in life:

1. The soul mate friend.

No, not all soulmates will be romantics. A soulmate friend is essentially your “best friend,” but for life. You never lose track of them and they never lose track of you. They are your soulmate friend.

2. Spiritual soulmate.

This is someone you connect with on a spiritual level more than others for no apparent reason. He is often also a platonic soul mate. You feel like you've known each other for ages, but it's not a romantic, intimate relationship.

3. The foreign soulmate.

The foreign soulmate is a soul mate who leaves as quickly as she came. The relationship is brief and often completely platonic. It's a new friend, a best friend, who moves away a year later, who simply loses all contact with you.
