New Moon and Solar Eclipse in Bharani

New Moon and Solar Eclipse in Bharani nakshatra, in Aries

Saturday April 30th, 22:30 CET

This New Moon will be in the nakshatra Bharani, called ‘the star of restraint’. Bharani also means bearing, or ‘she who bears’ is the second nakshatra of the zodiac, symbolised by the yoni, the female reproductive organ. Bharani deals with transforming the creative impulse into physical manifestations, it represents the birthing of ideas into creations. The ruling deity here is Yama, the god of death, representing the necessary cycle of life and death that makes creation possible.

The ruling planet of Bharani is Venus, within the sign of Aries ruled by Mars, that together represent the interplay between the active force and passive receptivity; creating the impulse of manifestation. Bharani is also said to harbor the divine feminine power, Shakti, or the receptive principle. A lesson of Bharani is temperance, there is a tendency toward indulgence with this nakshatra.

New Moon and Solar Eclipse in Bharani

This New Moon In Bharani will also be closing in to Rahu (12° apart), which means that there will be a partial solar eclipse happening during the New Moon. This is starting off this eclipse season, preparing us for the coming Full Moon that will be almost in exact conjunction to Ketu (within 4°).

Eclipses bring out things from the shadow, unconscious patterns or behaviours that we need to face and heal. The nodes in this way deal with confusing aspects of our mind, things that we are not seeing clearly, and fittingly they are called ‘shadow planets’ due to this fact. The luminaries are what provides wisdom in that they are the ones providing the light, ‘enlightening us’ whereas the nodes are the ones responsible for encasing them in shadow, creating confusion.

The eclipses can also surface deeply rooted ideas or attitudes we have about things, that we may not have been aware of, and any discrepancies between our truth and how we deal with these things on a day to day basis. If our habits or actions aren’t aligned with our inner truth or values, there can be issues rising in regards to those things, providing us with the opportunity to become aware of and transform any misalignment.

On the day of the eclipse is when these energies are activated – an initiation of a process – but the changes they can bring about usually manifests over the cycle of eclipses with the next one later in the fall. It’s a process of evolution emotionally you might say.

The eclipse on the Aries/Libra axis can surface shadow behaviors in our relationships; in how we express our wants or needs; in how we express our individuality or with our self image, generally speaking.

Some questions for reflection:
❧ Am I clear about what I need from my relationships?
❧ Am I able to compromise without losing my integrity?
❧ Do I stand in my power or am I stuck in limiting beliefs?
❧ What creations do I long to manifest into reality?

Every act of creation is first an act of destruction
