to join us. It’s far more than Astrology, it’s connection, curiosity, and a place of self-care, self-compassion and an opportunity to find YOU.
Today Mars meets Chiron in Aries at 22˚ 9’ Aries and, even though we are in the waning Moon phase and moving ever inwards towards the Gemini New Moon on June 6th, only two days after the new Venus Star Point™, the explosion of possibility, ideas, and creativity is palpable when combined with the influx of Gemini energy.
I talk about this more in my Gemini New Moon podcast at
Remember that Chiron was exactly conjunct with the April 8 Aries Eclipse and will return to that 19˚ mark and will in fact, station direct at that degree on December 29 2024. Aries is also Mars' home sign and Mars is at the most driven and pioneering in this sign.
We are on a journey of self-discovery and self-actualization supreme. Aries is the ‘I AM’ energy, the divine child archetype of which Carl Jung said
“You open the gates of the soul to let the dark flood of chaos flow into your order and meaning. If you marry the ordered to the chaos you produce the divine child, the supreme meaning beyond meaning and meaninglessness.” C.G. Jung, The Red Book.
In this big flip that we are experiencing within ourselves and the world, we are invited to individuate, to find our core sense of BEing and our innate potential, and to then co create from the inside out. A rebirth of sorts. The conjunction with Chiron, the Shaman, medicine person, and crack where the light gets in, reflects this big pull to let go of our old wounds and traumas. Of course we can’t magic events away by any means, but the Centauric healing process we are experiencing is one of learning how to come into the center of BEing and let go of how those wounds have held us until now. Just as Chiron, the Centaur sacrificed his immortality to be relieved of the pain of a wound that would not heal to be reborn as a constellation so that Prometheus was released from his punishment and could continue to teach humans.
Of course, I am not saying you have to sacrifice your life, these are mythical archetypes. Perhaps this myth is inviting you to let go of the attachment to old stories, beliefs, and wounds that have kept you from finding your core self and writing a new story.
As we bask under this Mars/Chiron conjunction, the Aquarius Moon squares the creative intelligence asteroid, Pallas Athena in Scorpio and opposes way-shower and crossroads guide, Hekate, in Leo asking you to begin to plan and mind map your way forward.
The Moon then enters the sign of sacrifice and letting go, as well as the Cosmic soup of creation, Pisces at 8:32 PM and squares Jupiter in Gemini and Asteroid Lilith in Sagittarius bringing a big sense of possibility and hope that if you begin to change your perspective, you can co create a more beautiful world from the inside out.
This brings a sense of experimentation and the potential for using your free will to change how you respond to the world and that you CAN write a new story and manifest your dreams.
The symbols add to this sense of birthing something from the inside out.
The Sabian symbol for 23 Aries is “A Pregnant Women in a Light Summer Dress” which has also been worded as “A woman in pastel colors carrying a heavy and valuable but veiled load”
For where we are at right now, I see this as the energy of birthing from the inside out, with a lightness of BEing, however, the second version of the symbol by Marc Edmund Jones, suggests that it’s a lot and the “veiled” speaks to the inner journey of the waning Moon.
We are carrying this sense of rebirth inside still, it’s still forming and creating, as a baby is still fully forming in the womb. Carry this metaphor to everything that we are co-creating in this time.
John Sandbach’s symbols also reflect the sense of experimentation and co-creation. I love that the Omega symbol suggests that if something isn’t working in the picture you are painting, you can paint over it and find what works for you.
The Chandra symbol is one of my favorites because I adore Alice in Wonderland. Take a risk. Try something new. If it doesn’t work, try something different!.
“Aries 23. A painting with countless layers of paint. (Omega Symbol) Interacting/Receptive
(Degree Angel: MELAHEL (MAY-la-HEL) Sharing the Flame, Healing Capacity)
You have a great ability to keep experimenting with a situation until you have found a way to make it work. You’re always open to the potential of change, knowing that nothing is set in stone, and even if it seems to be, stone, too, can be re-carved. Everything is open to modification and experimentation, and knowing this is your strength.
The Chandra Symbol for this degree is “A bottle labeled 'drink me.'” The bottle asks you to try something whose results you won't know until you do it, just as the painter applies successive layers of paint to see what will happen. We tend to think it's good to be careful – but not always. This degree has a refreshing lack of caution that most often carries it to surprising and wondrous places.”
I hope you feel as inspired as I do today.
A reminder :)
I am beyond excited to be a part of this FREE three-week summit starting June 10 with other big-name astrologers, for the second year. My friend and colleague Suzanne Gerber has gathered together 21 top astrologers to teach you how to use the wisdom of the stars to find your sacred purpose—and more. Sign up for free here! Register at https://starsandstoneshealing.tiny.us/louiseedington
Suzanne runs a fabulous summit (which is why I didn’t wait to be invited, I asked her if I could be included again - don’t ask, don’t get right?) and some of those names are a MUST NOT MISS for me! I hope you will join us!
See you tomorrow.
Love to you.
INVITATION TO YOU:-
Join me in Utah in October
I am a Peer Group leader at the wonderful OPA Retreat in Park City Utah in October. I LOVE OPA Retreats. They have a certain intimacy and connection lacking in some events (the other events have different strengths).
I would like to invite you to the Retreat on October 16-21. There are fabulous speakers (and a day pass for just that day is also available) but what’s unique about OPA Retreats is the opportunity to do an in-person Peer Group, a track to learn a new technique or an in-person Consulting Skills class. At the core of all those options is becoming an ethical Astrologer or learning more Astrology. Plus we would get to meet!
The Retreat is called “Celebrating the Aquarian Shift”
And the theme is “Connect and Learn”
Payment plans available! Check it out and register at this link.
REGISTER for the OPA retreat now!
Have a good one.
I know I will
