Welcome to a Moon which is opening up a new path in our lives…it’s time for beginnings

When: 18th of July at 6:31am (NZ), 4:31am (AEST), 4:01am (ACST); 2:31am (AWST + CST), 12:01am (IST) + 17th of July at 10:31pm (GST), 7:31pm (BST), 2:32pm (EDT), 12:31pm (MDT) + 11:31am (PDT)

HONOUR YOUR CONNECTION

We live in a world where the maya (the society + illusion we live in) is heavily steeped in individuality. Even to the point where we see astrology as entirely personal. This New Moon is calling for us to remember our connection back to each other - not so much in physical form (as this is full of traps for the mind) but in the way we are all children of mother nature and the Cosmos. It's time to consider that the feelings you have aren't yours, but are part of the great ocean which flows through all of us. They are simply borrowed from this energy. You get to experience them, grieve with them, feel joy with them and then let them go. This is a Moon reigniting your connection to the larger organism which is the soul. There are no individual higher selves - rather at that level of consciousness there is only one. An energy we all share.

UNDERSTAND YOU ARE ETERNAL

This New Moon represents a portal of pure potential which is begging for you to lay your intentions as a part of the communal network which is mother nature. These intentions will start to flourish with the Cancer Full Moon on the 27th - 28th of December this year, and grow further through to the begining of 2025. As the New Moon will be aligned with Pollux, which is part of the Gemini constellation, it asks for you to consider what is eternal within you. Pollux represents our soul, our immortal natural and asks for us to remember that although the world may look fleeting in front of us, beneath that is the world spirit which is all there has ever been. Physical appearances may change, seasons may shift, and yet there is something within you that will never diminish. Something that was never created and can never be destroyed. This is a Moon to touch this.

IT'S ACTIVATING LUMERIAN ENERGY

The New Moon will be in beautiful tension with the asteroid Mu - which holds within it the energy of Lumeria. Lumeria was a place on earth intimately connected to the divine mother and to nature - a place of paradise. You might already know that you had a past life in this world - and so this New Moon can feel like you are coming home. This energy is here to remind us of our relationship with the earth. It's calling for you to connect with the deep ancestral knowledge that lives within you and whispers to you that you are not separate from her. This is a New Moon to lean into this connection and start to step back in to deeper conscious resonance with her. Honour her, love her and in doing that you bless yourself.

THIS IS CALLING FOR RELEASE + THE AWAKENING OF PATH

The New Moon will be aligned with the asteroids Hekate and Shiva. Two incredibly powerful energies. Hekate is calling you to trust your intuition and allow it to awaken a new path for you from this New Moon. It's time for you, with the help of Shiva, to let go old hurts + wounded patterns of behaviour and embrace a path that will take you into realising more of what you deserve. That's easy to say, but with the added energy of the North + South Nodes moving signs, it truely is the universe opening a new door for you in your life. Think of it like a pathway which will take you into greater surrender, love and flow. it's time to step into a new consciousness - to back yourself, know your worth and move from this place.

THIS IS THE RETURN TO LIGHT

In Vedic Astrology this New Moon will be in Punarvasu Nakshastra (Lunar Mansion). This is calling for a return to the light and to the source from which all emerged. Within this is the energy of regeneration and acknowledgement that it's time for you to reconnect + get to know your true nature. This can manifest as you wanting to protect the natural world (maybe planting trees, walking in her wildness, lying on her sand or soil). There is so much optimism coming from this energy, that if you've been having a bit of a hard time of late it can help you look up and just bask in the possibilities of the future - as well as see the blessings of what you have been through. This energy is truely boundless, it is clearly marking that this is a big new beginning for you. So pay attention the house this New Moon is in as this will give you hints as to where this is happening. (If you want to know where this is check out the Cancer New Moon Ritual + Reading.
