The moon in Aries can be impulsive and bold. Some of us may feel more energetic than usual,  if this is the case use your energy wisely, but be aware of jumping to conclusions or into situation before knowing all the facts… :)

This can be a great time to begin new projects, especially ones that are “me” related… or to bring about a change for the better in your present situation… 

For those who may be shy or find it difficult to speak up… use this time (with the moon in Aries) to be your own “hero”… 

Those most affected by this months New moon will be those who have one or more of the following… 

Sun in Aries: Moon in Aries: Mars in Aries:
