New Moon in Aries – New Beginnings

  • March 26, 2016

On April 7th, we have a New Moon at 18 degrees Aries.

Only a few months after the Paris attacks, shockwaves resounded around the world with the explosions in Brussels airport and metro station. It’s not only Europe experiencing these atrocities, but many other countries too innocent lives are being lost.

What planetary aspects could be triggering all this unrest?

At the time of this New Moon, Uranus is conjunct the Sun and Moon and square to Pluto.

Pluto in Capricorn is all about keeping the status quo where banks are ‘too big to fail,’ and rescued even though they are bankrupt, where 1% of the people own 90% of the world’s wealth. Pluto is associated with the underworld and darkness.

Uranus in Aries, on the other hand, is all about freedom, people taking control of their own lives and breaking free from the controls of governments and authorities.

And gradually, this is happening. On YouTube, there are people who have millions of subscribers who could never have attracted such huge audiences before under the restrictive structures of the giant TV networks. Now, with the freedoms of the internet, people are finding their own voice, independent of the existing structures.

With 6 out of 10 planets in Fire signs, this is time to step out and to be yourself and to speak up for what is important to you.

The old Plutonian model of control is being questioned everywhere. For example, doctors used to be like gods. They would prescribe medications or a course of treatment and like lambs, people would obey their instructions. Now, with Uranus in Aries, people are not conforming, they are finding new solutions for themselves.

Structures are crumbling and there’s a strong desire for a new start playing out in US politics. Who would have thought that Donald Trump would be a forerunner for the Republican nomination when I posted my video about him 6 months ago?

Why are people voting for him?

Nassim Taleb, author of The Black Swan, states:
‘People are not voting for Trump (or Sanders). People are just voting, finally, to destroy the establishment.’

Aries is a very physical sign. Venus is in Aries encouraging you to LOVE YOUR BODY.What does your body want? Are you listening?I’ve been learning yoga for the last few months and my body is telling me that some of the poses don’t work for me. So I adapt them to suit my body. I do ‘Barbara’ yoga, and not a prescribed format.

“There is more wisdom in your body than in your deepest philosophy.”

Friedrich Nietzsche


When I think of Aries, I think of taking a risk, being courageous and brave.

I was so uncertain about posting my last video about the Lunar Eclipse in Libra. Time and again, I looked at it and I wasn’t sure. Then I decided to throw caution to the wind, and to trust my intuitive voice telling me to ‘JUST DO IT!’ And the same is true of the video for this New Moon, and yet again, quaking in my boots, I posted it!

What can you do at the time of this New Moon that stirs you up and exhilarates you at the same time?

Lunar Eclipse in Libra – Do You Love Me?

On March 23rd, we have a powerful Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 3 degrees 17 minutes Libra. With the Sun opposite the Moon, this is an important time to look at your relationships.

Libra is the sign of marriage, partnerships and relationships in general. With several planets in Aries, this Lunar Eclipse encourages you to look at the relationship you have with yourself. 

‘You’ve got to love yourself first. You’ve got to be okay on your own before you can be okay with somebody else.’ – Jennifer Lopez 

Many of you have commented about my new hairdo, most in a positive way. However, one person said that it made me ‘look like an old lesbian.’ This shows me that I am never ever going to please everyone.

Libra is always seeking balance and tends to contort itself in order to keep the peace and to make other people happy, often leaving themselves out of the equation.

With the Sun, Mercury and Uranus in Aries, it’s time to wake up to who you are, to learn how to be comfortable in your own skin.

I had some professional photos done last week and the photographer wanted to whiten my teeth, take out my wrinkles and make me look like a younger Barbara. I told him NO! I am happy the way I am.

Are you happy and thankful for the way you are?

After colouring my hair for many years, keeping it at shoulder length because ‘other people’ thought that was best for me, wearing ‘proper’ clothes to present my videos, Uranus in Aries gave me the wake-up call to do what I want to do, what works for me.

Is there anything about the way you present yourself that you want to change? With all this Aries energy in the heavens, this is the perfect time to throw caution to the wind, to take a risk and to break out of old patterns that have had you pleasing others and not yourself.

With Venus square to Saturn at the time of this Lunar Eclipse, there can be a tendency to find fault with yourself. For example, ‘I’m not good enough, ‘I should have done it differently’ etc.

If Venus is conjunct, square or opposite Saturn in your natal chart, chances are you didn’t feel very nurtured and you have had disappointments in love.

This eclipse gives you the opportunity to nurture and to love yourself. 

LIBRA whose ruler is Venus, is all about beauty.

Can you see your own beauty, regardless of the odd wrinkle, blemish or scar?  


‘Beauty is about being comfortable in your own skin. It’s about knowing and accepting who you are.’
Ellen DeGeneres

Judi Dench, world-renowned actress who I greatly admire, is now in her 80’s, and to me, she looks beautiful.

Here’s the video I did about her:

Don’t forget that old things can be very valuable and  beautiful. For example, a Stradivarius violin made in the 17th century can fetch millions of dollars in auction.

Can you come up with at least three things that you find beautiful about yourself?

‘Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world. Lucille Ball.
Libra tends to look for other people’s approval. Since I have become less and less attached to wanting others to like me, Wayne Dyer’s quote comes to mind:

‘People who want the most approval get the least and the people who need approval the least get the most.’

In education we are constantly comparing ourselves to others. She beat me in Maths, I did better than him at History………but really, you are unique. There will never be anyone like you again. So can you love yourself exactly the way you are?
