Moon nodes shifts to Aries, Venus in Leo
A Moon node’s shift occurs on July 17.2023. It moves from Taurus to Aries. The Moon node comes to the same sign once in 18 years. It happens to be at the same day when the New Moon ascents on the horizon in the sign of Cancer. It is going to be powerful shift. If you want to have idea in which area of your life it can place, go back 18 years, as the Moon nodes cycle is 18 year. This time, it will be compelling and stronger, as the North node make clash with Pluto, conjunct the New Moon and opposites the south node in Libra. It is not going to color only the actions in July, this shift will take 18 months to develops. It depend, if you have planets near by 29 degrees, plus, minus 5 degrees, it can influence strong in July and August. If you have planets at small degrees, it can influence at the end of the year or even next year.
The Moon nodes moves to Aries at 29 degrees. Here are the characteristic of Aries: Ruled by Mars, Aries is positive, adventurous and energetic, pioneering and courageous, passionate, enthusiastic and confident; dynamic and quick-witted. He is also impulsive and impatient, sometime selfish and quick-tempered. Pluto is also in 29 degrees, in Capricorn, South node is in Libra, also at 29 degrees. The 29th degree in astrology is the Leo degree – the sign of expression, creativity, love and passion.
Keep in mind, the New Moon on 17 in Cancer occurs at 26 degrees, it also opposites Pluto in Capricorn and squares North node and south nodes. You can imagine, a cross square of 4 important astrology points and planets clash between each other.
As Aries is ruled by Mars, it is quick, passionate, impulsive, pioneer, we will be pushed to move quickly, to take fast decisions, as Pluto, called “evolution of the soul” return for the last time to Capricorn to finish it’s job there, to release what is no longer used or corrupted. It is a fated, karmic event that we can not pass, we will be pushed to take decision and to shift in order to get to the righ direction. Something big is going to happen, it can not be postponed anymore, since the North Node presents the head of the dragon, it aims to the best, higher prestige, best skills, triumph effect, it take us with fast elevator to achieve our desire or goals. Aries north node motivates us, it is ambitious, independent, it asks for new beginning, to create new karma. Pluto plays big roles, as he brings karmic events, transformation, cleansing, life or death, ending, in order to be able to be reborn and raise again stronger than ever. South node in astrology is our past action and life, we must forget about the past, we can not go back to where we were, if we want to get big plunge into the future. Well, there should be some sacrifice, something from the past that give us security, convenience, old feeling of happiness, you have to to let it go, to create new karma, you have to start something new that will uplift you, energize you, helps you to grow and be passionate, to be alive again. This is happen when the eclipses change the signs, they shake up us, especially when there in our sign or major houses: 4th house- home family, residence; seventh house- partnership and 10th house- career, social status.
At the same time, we have help from Venus that is in the sign of Leo now, as it stay usually 25 days, now, it will be in the sign of Leo for 4 months. Venus will play role in the shift, as well, as it moves Retro and bring us to the past event, ex-friend, boy-friend or employer, even old places, old question. There you may have some problem to solve, there you should see if you can accept and see the old in a new light, it is up to you if you are able to workout the old problem, and you may decide to start from the beginning with new enthusiasm. Or you just learn your lesson, repeat old mistake and decide to to end once and forever. One way, or other, it is for your good, as the universe crates events to examine where we are and to make the right decision, to move to the higher place, with higher consciousness, renewed and stronger, to grow up develop. Again, Pluto has the best in store for you, even now you may have to say bye to something or someone, you will be in the right direction for success. There is no way you can go back. This is what eclipses do, they shake us up and push us in the new direction and they don’t give us many choice. Aries is fast and enthusiastic, you have to accepted quickly and move into the new direction, or you lose it. Remember, Pluto is the evolution of the soul, he creates crises to wake us up. We need to make our choices, we need to decide where to go, but, unfortunately, we don’t have many choices, but to move forward, because the road to the past is broken or burn, physically or mentally.
