Heads UP! The New Moon in Aries will rise on April 1st, 2022.
Every year Ostara (or Spring Equinox) is marked when the Sun swings into the first sign, Aries.
And shortly after, the Moon, our sacred luminary Goddess of the skies moves in closer to join him, ready for her own renewal. This Zodiac sign comes first. Its astrology re-births the cycle, forging ahead without a backward glance.
Brave, daring, fearless + foolhardy Aries energy is unmistakable. And whether or not it shows up prominently in your personal chart… it lives within you.
Aries is more than the “I am”
It’s the pure conviction in a future as you believe it. It is intention x 10, plus something else a little bit special.
Aries energy is human will…
This Zodiac sign is the star-lit expression of future inevitability… without the inevitability. By which I mean, you, yes, YOU, get to direct your will.
Pause here, and now for a sweet second, and settle into that knowing. YOU are calling the shots.
What does it feel like?
This knowing is an energy that holds the pure conviction that you can bring into being whatever the aim of your will. No question. Think about the word – why do people write a “Last Will and Testament?” It’s because this document sums up the absolute inevitability of death, plus the very last act of certainty it’s possible to make, before passing from this world.
But of course, the New Moon is all about the beginning, not the ending.
Aries is ripe, poised, absolutely ready for ignition
Seeped in cardinal fire, all this New Moon needs is to be told where to aim. Are you ready?

For now, if you want to Use Aries’ potent New Moon fire to ignite YOUR life… here’s how:
1. Tap into your passion
The breath of this New Moon is passion…
Passion contains a red-hot force that’s creative, sexual, determined, and yes, just a little bit reckless.
THIS is Aries New Moon energy to the core, and it’s powerful.
BUT you know what? Passion is worthless without direction.
It needs to be moved. That means not just scrolling through a social media feed, feeling all the feels. But doing something with those feelings.
And not just planning, intending, and Pintresting your ideals. But breaking away from normal to make it so!
Passion means acting on something you love. For something (or someone) you love. Meeting it head-on and running with it.
Your passion may not be obvious at first.
For a lot of people, they’re not taught to tap into this when they’re young (in fact, they’re determinedly taught to “tap out” of it, instead, filling up on a one-size-fits-all school curriculum).
So if you can’t feel your passion, don’t worry. Go slowly. Start with an inkling of desire, a lift of the spirits, or upturn at the corner of your lips.
…And one of the absolute best ways is to ask.
Ask yourself.
Ask the Spirits to show you what YOUR passion looks like. Make that your new project, your passion project: “What is my passion?” What better way to start?
2. Move your body
Movement….aaaahhhh. Do you do enough of it? Movement (under an Aries Moon, hell, under an Aries anything) is non-negotiable! YOU will heal, you will grow, you will transform… if you move your body. Get up. DO it now.
3 Connect to the Spirit of FIRE
Aries is the first fire sign in the Zodiac, and fire is a potent ally.

4 Take a RISK
The energy of the New Moon in Aries feels like not just pushing an edge, but leaping right over it.
Sense that cortisol level rising in your mind’s eye, can you feel it?
THAT is the fire of Aries, that’s the lifeblood running through this astrology’s archetypal veins.
It doesn’t suit everybody – some folks love its rush, whilst others panic and run the other way. But whatever your initial reactions, understand that Aries is an aspect of you – it’s an aspect of us all. And playing with it, pushing it, testing its (our) limits is potent medicine.
Is there something you’ve been pushing down to the bottom of your to-do list every day for the past couple of weeks, because it’s just a little bit too far outside your comfort zone?
- Maybe it’s calling to make an appointment…? Because you know, deep down, it’ll open up opportunities that will ask you to expand juuuuuust a little bit further than feels safe?
- Maybe it’s showing up in greater vulnerability in a relationship, knowing that once you’ve gone there, there is no going back.
- Or maybe it’s leaving, saying no, and walking away….
The energy of this New Moon begs for bravery. But it’s a window. A fertile patch of dark earth, so dive inside it.
5. Believe anything is possible
The summation of all the above!
…And the catalyst to making it so, is the belief that anything is possible.
Aries energy IS the child. It’s the babe, the unconditioned, unprogrammed fresh, and wide-eyes soul that gets to start again. We are all manifesting the world into existence with every breath, every thought and every belief we hold onto in each awakening second. And it’s a feedback loop – your perception of what you create informs the next decision you make, and this affects your creation.
Yet the energy and initiation of Aries breaks out. Its passion, movement, fire, and risk creates the shift that creates the spiral…. Which can lead to anything new. If you believe it is possible.
Setting intentions?
The New Moon intentions that you set at this lunar phase will follow the spirals of time, reaching their culmination on the Full Moon in Aries in six months’ time.
This means that the seeds you sow now at the Aries New Moon – the kindling you are setting alight to under THIS Moon – will be moving through six whole moon cycles with you. THIS is how long it will take them to root down and become your normal.
If you do the work.
The Full Moon in Aries will peak on October 9th, 2022.
