The New Moon

When your feelings about the past, memories, and your sense of security

conjunct or meet up with

Your confidence,  purposefulness, and your hopes for the future

A profound impression is made.

A note on the harp of the soul.

A seed moment in celestial manifestation.

The Horoscope for the New Moon is for the exact moment of the New Moon.

There are no houses in this chart because the Moon is in all 12 houses at the same time when viewed globally. So this is the true New Moon chart for anywhere on earth. You can add the houses to it according to where you live.

Most computer printouts will draw the horoscope with the houses as appropriate for where you are on the planet. This was not done here in order to focus on things valid for everyone on the planet.

New Moons are the peak  points of subjective impressionability in the month.

Receptivity to core insights and to God, are accentuated.

Chanting (or even drumming) on a New Moon will give an extra vitality to your efforts over the following month,

until the next New Moon.

A holy  environment and spiritual companions are a great blessing.

The New Moon accumulates and reflects on all of the experiences of the past month. On the New Moon the conglomerate of experiences past, creates a high tide of intuitive impressions. At the moment the Moon meets the Sun, light is  shone on these impressions creating a new sense of purpose. It is the Sun than effects the Moon.

From our worldly consciousness we cannot see the combination or aggregate of memories, but we can certainly feel it.

Unfortunately our habit patterns are too gross or physical to allow us to attune to this phenomenon consciously, but we certainly can feel it.

Only the initiate or one established in spiritual disciplines can clearly witness the New Moon within.

Zodiac Pattern Types

THE BOWL TYPE:

All the planets on one side of a chart, within an opposition. One half to almost two thirds of the chart is empty.

The Bowl Type has a deep sense of being separated from one half of existence. Half seems to be with you and the other half not. Because this pattern is based on the op­position there is an inherent awareness of duality. You will embrace your concerns strongly. You will also be powerfully aware of what does not concern you. You clearly see who you are, and who you are not! You tend to champion causes and will usually go out of your way to give to others on one level or another. Your sensitivity to duality will find you questioning the purpose of existence.

Gemini New Moon – Bowl:

New Moon in Gemini – Bowl NH

Spring is getting warmer by the day in the Northern climates and the last New Moon of the season occurs in freedom loving Gemini.

As the Sun and Moon connect in a moment of complete darkness during the New Moon, the potential for deep spiritual contemplation and intuitive insight are created. Your feelings about what ‘has been’ connect with what is ‘to be’. Although not visible to the naked eye, the Sun meeting the Moon is an energizing time. If you are able to quiet your mind and spirit enough you may feel the moments of heightened impressions followed by a new sense of purpose.

Gemini is colouring this new beginning with an urge for communicating a multitude of ideas. You may feel eager to project any and every thought at the speed of light. Aim to slow down to catch the moment.

What you think about your experiences of the last 30 days will affect your sense of independence and the intuitive impressions about to unfold.

Positive impressions of last month’s actions and interactions will result in a pleasant New Moon. If you dislike your impressions, let go of some mental concepts, quiet your mind.

The Gemini New Moon is being channeled into the duality conscious Bowl Pattern magnifying Gemini’s inherent inquisitive mind to investigate anything that catches their attention. Your quest for exploring the other half of the bowl will be rewarding.

Seeds planted during this month’s moment of New Moon stillness will have a cerebral and projective quality. Allow thoughts to mature into wise action.

For your greatest benefit, use this New Moon moment to quiet your mind and spirit. Chanting, meditation, candlelight and yoga are all empowering while embracing the silent darkness and the voice within.

 

WANING CRESCENT MOON PHASE

45° – 0°, 3 1/2 to 0 days before the New Moon.

            This is the last phase of the lunar cycle before the new moon. It is often called the balsamic moon phase and it lasts for three and one half days from the crescent to the new moon. The light finally disappears into the mystery of silence and darkness. Completion becomes important. Your own projections seem to disappear in the vastness of all that is happening around you.

            You are searching for something new but are unsure of how to end the old attachments. Your awareness of others begins to lose relevance as you approach renewal. Try to understand what needs to be left behind. This should be a daily meditation. You have the uncanny ability to know when anything is ending or about to fall apart. Unfortunately it is not usually wise to tell others about it. They would probably consider you to be too negative. You need to learn why things come to an end. It is important for you to mind your own business or you will keep seeing everything that is going to collapse on everyone. Learn to look within for the new vision. Trust silence. Take steps to move towards your vision. Be very selective. Listen and wait.

            Often people will not appreciate you until you have gone. Try to insure that your influence is a positive one. Watch what you say. Often you will seem overwhelmed by useless or futile commitments. Do not try to save face. Be honest and let go.

            The quality of ending will directly effect the nature of the new beginning just about to come. So be wise. No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. It may not make sense to others but if you trust your conscience, you will see the way. Hold on to your principles. Do not make promises that you cannot keep, especially long term promises.

            You have the tendency to lose yourself in others only to be left very insecure when they do not have the answers. You want to become completely involved with someone. You will constantly search for or wonder about the ultimate love of your life. Often you will feel that what you have is not enough, and then you will wonder why you bother to stay within it.

            You are looking for completion and fulfillment and are not likely to embrace freedom comfortably. You want to burn your past for future goals. It is amazing though how long you can procrastinate and wait. You want to help but often do not know what to do. You will probably not bother until somebody else cares.

            A little encouragement can have profound effects. To attract positive feedback you must be positive towards others. If you must end a situation, it is important for the reason to be correct, otherwise your problems will reoccur in the new arena.

THE WAXING NEW MOON PHASE

O°- 45°, 0 to 3 1/2 days after the New Moon.

This is the beginning of the lunar cycle and lasts for three and one half days. The light is emerging gently. From the depths of the darkest moment up to the first slim crescent of light, and a little farther until the crescent is smiling brightly.

            This is a highly intuitive time filled with deep impressions and new beginnings. This is a time of seed moments and powerful insights. There is a predominant undercurrent of anxious anticipation. A new moon cycle is born.

            Born under this phase you need to feel that your life is just beginning to open up. The challenge is subjective: are you prepared to advance your own cause? You should readily adjust your lifestyle to support any new sense of direction that you feel is emerging within you. You will be constantly having to make new starts in life. You will be sensitive to new beginnings and uncertain about your present surroundings. You are inclined to leave old attachments and memories behind. You want to move forward towards your goals and will be frustrated by any setbacks.

            When you begin a project it is important to advance with care and gentleness. Make sure that you nurture and protect the germinating seed; ie. the new you. It is usually easier for you to do things than to talk about them. Remember that you do not have to achieve everything right away, but it is important for you to feel that you are advancing toward your goals.

            You are the kind of person who plants ideas in the minds of others. You will reach out and impress others subtly. You will always be able to sense the new path that should be taken. As long as you are moving along this path you will feel relatively secure. Worries and problems will surface when you crystallize or stop growing. Do not look back or hold on to the past. Nurture the light within. Protect your own development and do not throw your good ideas out to fools who will not appreciate them. Neither should you follow the dreams of others. Trust your own inner sense of direction. Whenever you can make the effort to be creative, you should. Do not try to explain the process, just do it! Consistent effort will accumulate. Reach out. Rely on your instincts. Grow. Break out of old patterns. Move on. Move on. New beginnings always seem small against the vastness of life around you, none-the-less every journey starts with one small step. Try to find friends who will support and acknowledge your efforts. Always be cautious about what you say. Words can come back to haunt you.

            You will always be trying to start something. Make certain that you take time to water the flowers and plants in your garden of hopes and dreams. The end does not always justify the means so make your daily life creative. Take time to smell the flowers along your path. You will be able to draw encouragement and inspiration by listening to birds singing.

Some Gemini Considerations:

Gemini is a Mutable sign.

To be mutable is to be adaptable and perceptive.

Geminis live for their own independent perceptions.

They are free spirits who will indulge their curiosity to its limits.

The can usually find several ways to approach any situation.

They like change, they adapt quickly and they are easily bored.

They will embrace diversity rather than consistency.

They choose freedom and tend to avoid obligations.

Gemini is ruled by Mercury or the mind.

Ideas are empowered.

They pride themselves on their intelligence and their wit.

They are the champions of freedom

And the rebels of responsibility.

They act on their ideas without reflecting on the implications.

They can laugh in the face of adversity.

They will find their own way.

This is the trigram of The Creative, Heaven.

Daylight is greater than darkness

And daylight is increasing to its maximum.

With daylight comes freedom and independence.

The power of creativity ascends.

Actions follow thoughts.

There is no room for sensitive reflection here.

One must put one’s ideas into action.

The Creative leads up to the longest day

And the greatest expression of light and individuality.

One must see how far one can take things

And how much one can actualize one’s ideas and dreams.

The power of creative thought is great!

The Eightfold Path of Right Thought is the path for Gemini.

On this path one is encouraged to promote thoughts

Of selfless renunciation and detachment.

One is advised to strive for thoughts of love and thoughts of non-violence.

These loving thoughts need to be extended to all beings.

Pentans

Pentans are five degree divisions of the Zodiac in which the zodiac repeats itself creating a sub-level  of meaning. Sub-pentans divide each 10 degrees of the zodiac into 12 sub-sub-signs adding a third level of meaning. The Zodiac sign is the Main Theme, The Pentan is the Special Focus and the Sub-Pentan is the Intimate Detail.

Zodiac Faces

Today we see

the Face of Abundance

Aries: There are opportunities that other people will bring to you, and there are opportunities that you will make happen by your own initiative. Follow your own impulses and what you can do for yourself. Hesitation will be the enemy.

Taurus: There will be an abundance of opportunities for personal enjoyment. Other people will appreciate your style. This is a day when you need to accentuate beauty. Charm will succeed where force will not.

Gemini: The more the merrier. This attitude could spell trouble for you today. You will be tempted to accept the questionable offers of others. If you try to preach you will be ridiculed. Follow your own good sense and not the desires of the moment.

Cancer: With a little charm you will gain an abundance of sympathy and understanding. The danger lies in the fact that as you get comfortable you will increase your level of indulgence. Little gifts will make a big impression!

Leo: The repercussions of abundance will begin to show on your waistline today. Do not flaunt what you have over others who are less fortunate. The is a right way and a wrong way to do anything. Be considerate of those in need.

Virgo: What the world needs today is less of other people’s good intentions. Unfortunately, there will be an abundance of those who know a better way and want you to follow it. Don’t compromise your style. Be content with what you have.

Libra: It will not take much effort to pull you of course. This is one of those days when you will overlook or forget things. Do not forget the names of people you meet. Don’t tell anyone what to do.

Scorpio: It will seem as if others are blessed with more abundance than you. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Envy is a negative and empty emotion. Let other people have their day. You are required to be considerate.

Sagittarius: Haste makes waste. This will be a disorienting day. You will have trouble determining your priorities. Most likely the truth will be stretched. Get the facts straight before you speak!

Capricorn: This will be a fortunate day. Not only will you be able to get what you want but you should be able to increase your fortunes. If you show consideration for the values of others, then you will be amply rewarded.

Aquarius: Be prepared to put your money where your mouth is. Unfortunately, your mouth will be abundantly vocal. This will likely cost you. On the one hand you will appear vain and on the other spoiled and lazy! Do not express contempt towards anyone!

Pisces: Abundance is yours today. Try to share the beauty that you find. Words will not be enough. You will have to do something practical to make life more comfortable. Give hugs and encouragement.

Uranus Conjunct Sun in Taurus – A Canadian Zodiac Coin

By Robin Armstrong

Zodiac Coin Canadian

In 2021 I was an adviser to the Royal Canadian Mint for the production of a Canadian Zodiac coin.

They had their own artists and production manager. My work was to make sure that the information presented was correct and inclusive of both astronomical and astrological perspectives in a lucid and informed manner. The artist for the Zodiac side of the coin was Jori van der Linde.  She created the Zodiac design. She used her own creative license to present the Zodiac images and the constellations.The effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the front of the coin was done by Susanna Blunt.

The Zodiac coin was minted and made available in May 2022 just as the Sun and Uranus were in Taurus. Innovative astrological money!  How appropriate! To add to the Uranus factor, the Zodiac side of the coin lights up under a black light and reveals the constellations. Without the black light the symbols of the Zodiac signs are seen.

The once  in 165 years Jupiter-Neptune conjunction, which is also happening this May 2022, enhances the acceptance and approval of astrology in Canada. It ushers in an era of renewed mysticism and understanding for the 21st century.
