Has clarity, certainty, hope, or faith eluded you in recent weeks? That’s about to change. Friday’s new moon can feel like the unofficial push/start to what is sure to be a history-in-the-making month. It will be life-altering for some.

First a pressure buildup, then a release. This new moon in Aries hits a critical turning point with heavyweights Saturn and Pluto. It is the first of three acceleration triggers regarding the reshaping of the reality. (Saturn and Pluto intensify all matters to do with taking control, accountability, self-governance, parenting, relationship to external authority, empowerment agendas, and career development.) As of the middle to the end of next week, the Aries sun will also hit fast-forward, first with Saturn (Wednesday) and then with Pluto (next Saturday). Both are significant dates regarding the EU and Brexit. Both planets will begin retrograde cycles later in the month.

Saturday/Sunday, the Taurus moon holds it steady while also providing fresh stimulus to keep hearts, minds, and wallets in action. Monday/Tuesday, the Gemini moon is mobilizing.

Late Tuesday, Venus/Neptune launch a new cycle holding significant creative potency. This fertile and resources-rich planetary pairing sets optimal conditions for dreamers, creators, lovers, spiritual seekers, and chosen ones. Early Wednesday morning, sun/Saturn makes it real. (Divorce for England is imminent.)

Coinciding with the two aforementioned transits, Ceres in Sagittarius turns retrograde on Tuesday; Jupiter in Sagittarius turns retrograde on Wednesday. Both are tide-turning and trendsetter influences. Just when you think you know the score, something additional or multifaceted is tossed into the equation. Watch these few days for big news, a watershed moment, or, at the very least, a fresh insight, perspective, opinion, or option.

Aries
March 20 - April 20

Where there is a will, there is a way. Friday’s new moon in Aries gets the ball rolling. Consider it an initial springboard. The sun in Aries will gain more significant momentum as of mid–next week. News, an insight, a revealing conversation, or something else: Tuesday/Wednesday puts you in the know or on the go in some unforeseen and opportune way.

Taurus
April 20 - May 21

Friday night through Monday, the stars are in your favour. Your timing is good—especially Saturday/Sunday while the moon transits Taurus. On the way to next Wednesday/Thursday’s action peak, Tuesday can go either way. The evening can be good for socializing, performing, shopping, or romance, but also know there’s a propensity to splurge, overshoot, or overindulge in food, drink, or what have you.

Gemini
May 21 - June 21

The workweek ends with a new moon in Aries adding fresh fuel to the fire. Mercury in Pisces is still trying to sort through what’s real and viable and what’s not. Despite two major planetary influences turning retrograde, mid–next week puts you or it into full swing. It can be a matter of exposing, relinquishing, taking on, or gaining more than anticipated.

Cancer
June 21 - July 22

A new reality is setting into play. The most difficult parts are getting past the past and getting started. You can face a few firsts or hurdles in the month ahead. Having said that, Friday night to Monday runs along a mostly smooth and productive track. The future shifts course starting Tuesday and hits full steam ahead from Wednesday onward.

Leo
July 22 - August 23

A new moon in Aries ends the workweek on an energy surge. It’s a hint or a first flint strike regarding what’s already building steam. Make the most of your weekend while your time is yours to own. As of mid–next week, Ceres and Jupiter are on a rerouting mandate. They assist the sun to cut to the chase and cover new ground with reality-check Saturn.

Virgo
August 23 - September 23

Ready for your next page to begin? Whether you have been building up to it, it springs on you, or you pounce on it, everything changes as of this Friday’s new moon, the cluster of transits happening next week, and also over the weeks that follow. While no pain/no gain is in the mix, once you go live, you’ll be glad you did.

Libra
September 23 - October 23

It’s the right time to put yourself out there in some new way, to test-drive a new you. Friday’s new moon and a host of dynamic stars over the next couple of weeks help you to do exactly that. A change of conversation, opinion, or heart could get the ball rolling. It’s important to consider all options or points of view.

Scorpio
October 23 - November 22

Friday’s new moon is well timed for taking on a new job, work project, employee, agent, study, or health regimen. Challenge is in the mix, but that’s not going to stop the necessity or what’s already building steam. Saturday to Monday, you’ll stay the course well. Wednesday onward, the lid comes off. You’ll know, see, feel, do, and have more to go on.

Sagittarius
November 22 - December 21

Jupiter in Sagittarius turns retrograde next Wednesday within 12 hours of Ceres in Sagittarius. You’ll feel it as a major shift of momentum and perspective. You may feel the need to regroup, to distance yourself more, to rethink your plans, intentions, and goals. At the same time, the Aries sun is on a breakaway track and providing you with ample cut-to-the-chase incentive.

Capricorn
December 21 - January 20

Whether it’s a feel or something real, new-moon Friday can signal the start of a lot more to come. You can hold to a steady pace through the start of next week but as of next Tuesday to Thursday and the week that follows, the brakes come off. Your new reality hits full steam ahead.

Aquarius
January 20 - February 18

Friday’s new moon in Aries can launch a new conversation or whole new line of thinking. Along with next week’s transits, it is an ideal time to go exploring and to sign up for something new. Jupiter retrograde can redirect your objective, goal, or social involvement. A goodbye or hello can be said. One thing changes everything.

Pisces
February 18 - March 20

A new reality (financial, emotional, career, personal) gains a strong headwind as of next Tuesday to Thursday and through the week that follows. Whether noticeable or subtle, Friday’s new moon in Aries could kick-start the action. Potential is ripe for the taking. Choose new, not old. Risk is in the mix, but when is it not?
