Merging with the Sun at 2.26° in Leo the new Moon of August takes counsel of the divine ancestors, in the lunar house of Magha. The fight for what we need and what we want is on with all the fire signs activated. Mars will make us more reactive and Jupiter will exaggerate this, we can feel shaken into action.
A tremendous force to birth new things, an urge to make manifest what has laid dormant within our minds and in our hearts.
The days around the new Moon, we can be frustrated there will be some confronting information to process within the next two weeks. The combination of a combust Mercury with the dark Moon and Sun activates a need for us to express what we feel, what we think and what must be said before we are overflowing with fire. It brings a feeling of frustration that time is working against us.
The consciousness depositing the New Moon, Sun and Mercury is Magha nakshatra a place ruled by the Pitris our divine ancestors, ancient forefathers, our guides where we receive great counsel and guidance. A deeply mystical nakshatra connected with the in-between realms, where records are kept and wisdom is found. It’s fiery and hot and not soft in any way, it’s agenda is to remind us of our sovereignty, individual strength, and the inheritance we’ve received from those who came before us.
In it most simplistic essence Magha deals with our past to shape our present, a place we can access our ancestors help to guide us, as Ketu the guardian of our past karmas releases what is ripe to be experienced into the present.
Be mindful of family connections, your relationships and what you’re endorsing over the coming weeks, this will play out in the bigger picture of your life now. Each brick we lay in the wall of creation, each stitch we sew in our tapestry, says something about our character, our morality, our humanity and ultimately our spiritual selves. What will your legacy be? What will be the throne you sit on?
Communication is key in the new Moon cycle, to express ourselves before we explode. Remember to be compassionate, flexible, adaptable, to have an open-mind this will lead to the resolution of a deep-seated problem, personal growth, and a profound transformation.
We are all assessing how we can be reborn, how we can be regenerated, beginning now to accept that things will never be the same. The first step to empowerment is to accept we are not victims, in this, we can broaden our view of life and what the true meaning is. Becoming more aware of what we thought reality was and what we see was now is the dream, without blaming the outside world, taking responsibility for how we contributed to the dream and fantasy.
Stand Up and Be Counted! Don’t let the magnitude of troubles outside extinguish the ability for love, kindness and positive change that lies within you.
Give form to the Intangible! Get creative. Everything that has ever been created started as a small seed of potential nurture yours.
You’re Stronger Than you Know! Take some time to value yourself and your experiences. Remembering you came here to live fully.
Remember your Roots! Magha is about identity on a personal level, but bigger than that, it is about the generations that came before us living through us now. It is the tree of life, the primordial energy, that we ultimately all originated from.
It’s a great time to book a reading and see what’s in store for you and see how you can best navigate these unparalleled times.
I send you lots of love and luck with the New Moon Cycle
