Something Nubian

As we gather under the celestial umbrella of the New Moon in Aries, accompanied by a Solar Eclipse, we’re ushered into a vortex of transformation. This cosmic alignment, marked on April 8th at precisely 1:50 pm, is not just another celestial event. It’s a profound invitation to embrace change, transformation, and the fiery energy of Aries. This period is about finding clarity, purity, confidence, and acting on impulse for your well-being, all while navigating the complexities of our loving relationships, boundaries, and all things we find beautiful.

Lunar Insights

The New Moon in Aries, a cardinal fire sign, known for its energy, confidence, and intuition, aligns with Mercury in Retrograde, Venus in Aries, Chiron, and Aris. This alignment brings an intensity and impulsiveness, prompting us to focus on personal growth, healing, and transformation. The conjunctions highlight how change will manifest through love (Venus), communication (Mercury), nature (Aris), and inner healing (Chiron). Harness this energy by focusing on healing old wounds. Give genuine offerings to the earth to improve how we love, communicate, live, and grow. With the Solar Eclipse’s energy impacting us for over a year, start a journal to document your journey and growth during this time.

Plants and Crystals for Aries

Plant Spotlight:

Sunflower and Ginger: Embrace the sunflower for its vibrant energy and love; ginger for igniting success. Incorporate sunflowers into your space, real or faux, to beautify your environment. Add ginger to your meals or drinks as a dietary boost for success (internal and external).

Crystal Focus:

Bloodstone and Clear Quartz:

Bloodstone enhances energy, while Clear Quartz brings clarity. Keep these crystals close, meditate with them, or place them among your plants to align with the Moon’s energy.

Reiki and Energy Healing

Embrace Aries’s fiery energy with Reiki practices that focus on the themes of Mercury and Venus. Use symbols and mantras that resonate with these celestial bodies to enhance your connection to the universe. Meditation practices focused on embracing change, loving communication, and personal growth are particularly powerful during this time.

Here are some tips:

• Imagine a swirl starting from your heart, moving outward, signifying the expanding energy of love. For communication, visualize this symbol at your throat, glowing brightly, enhancing your words with clarity and power.
  • Imagine sending a light beam from your heart to a loved one or to your future self, facilitating healing and understanding.
  • Envision a radiant light at the crown of your head, connecting you to the universal energy.
