Global Hot Spot: The Aries New Moon on March 31 – April 1, 2022

“…all is transformed, all is sacred, every room is the center of the world, it’s still the first night, and the first day, the world is born when two people kiss, a drop of light from transparent juices, the room cracks half-open like a fruit, or explodes in silence like a star…”

--From Piedra de Sol (Sunstone)


Octavio Paz, born March 31, 1914, Mexican Poet, Writer, Diplomat, and winner of the Noble Prize for Literature in 1990





Dateline March 30, 2022: The Aries New Moon happening Thursday March 31 – Friday April 1 can make an extraordinary impact in your personal life and for all of humanity – especially as this New Moon occurs in conjunction with the wounded-healer centaur-body Chiron. You can read more about the primary two dates from the Cosmic Kalendar in two key paragraphs further below.



For a wide variety of insights on both of these rather momentous days this month – particularly associated with the USA birth chart from July 4, 1776 – please listen to my recent podcasts in the Mark Lerner Astrology Radio AstroScope section on our website. Plus, in several of these podcasts I discuss the discovery on November 14, 2003 of the far-distant planet Sedna – which has an 11,400-year orbit around our Sun – and currently is making a rare, profound conjunction with the fate-destiny oriented Mean Lunar North Node in late-Taurus near the Pleiades constellation.


It is also important to note that the asteroid Juno – when negative – can signify terrorism, atmospheric storms, and rage by the disempowered. Vladimir Putin has just experienced his first Juno Return in four years – along with Saturn transiting on his fate-destiny oriented Mean Lunar North Node for the first time in 29 years. The combination of these astro-zodiacal energies, along with many others, is a key reason the violence and disaster in Ukraine is now taking place. Juno united with Saturn in Aquarius on Tuesday March 29, but their conjunction is still very much in force during this Aries New Moon.


For those of you who are now enjoying the Astrology Cosmic Kalendar one day at a time – but who have not yet subscribed to be able to look several weeks into the future – here are the calendar entries for two very significant days (Thursday March 31 and Friday April 1). Because every day – beyond the current 24 hours that we define as one rotation of our celestial orb on its axis – has astro-zodiacal magic, mystery and wonder is why thousands of people around the world have been tuning into the Astrological Cosmic Kalendar for the last 40 years and since it was at the heart-center of our Welcome to Planet Earth pioneering astrology newspaper/magazine during the 1980s and 1990s.


Future Cosmic Kalendar Entries for Thursday March 31 and Friday April 1 (All times are listed in PDT.)


Thursday March 31 It’s definitely not every year when a New Moon — the one that happens at 12 degrees of Aries at 11:26pm — clocks in either on the last day of March or the first day of April. Due to what’s known as the Metonic Cycle (discovered by an Ancient Greek astronomer named Meton over 2400 years ago), New and Full Moons have a repeating sequence close-to-exact every 19 years. Therefore, the previous New Moon of Aries energizing March 31-April 1 occurred in 2003 and the next one will happen 2041. Because the dark-of-the-moon vibrations become stronger all day long, finishing old business on a high note is a primary concern especially since there is also a void lunar cycle in Pisces that began last night and ends at 2:32am as the Moon darts into fiery Aries. Being too pushy or aggressive, particularly in affairs of the heart, is not advised as Venus in Aquarius forms a frictional square to the Mean Lunar Nodes in Taurus and Scorpio (10:19am and active for most of the day). Mind over matter is a better theme to connect with as the Sun makes a contra-parallel with Jupiter (1:24pm) and the lunar orb unites with Mercury (7:36pm). Get set for a rousing start to the fourth month of 2022 on April Fools’ Day when a wide array of celestial alignments can give you fantastic encouragement as the Moon will unite with healing-maestro Chiron and problem-resolver, mental strategist Pallas Athena while the Sun forms its annual union with Chiron. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Daylight Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]


Friday April 1 The fourth month of 2022 starts with a bang and not a whimper. Due to the fiery Aries New Moon — which arrived on the scene last night at 11:26pm — you can take a magic-carpet ride with plenty of dynamic momentum. The Messenger of the Gods planet Mercury is closing in on a union with the Sun to occur tomorrow, but it’s moving at top-speed of over 2 degrees per day. This energizes intellectual prowess in many ways and, throughout this 24-hour time-period, Mercury makes alignments with Vesta, Pluto, Venus, Neptune and Mars. Meanwhile, healing abilities and problem-solving skills flourish — thanks to lunar conjunctions with Chiron (12:53am) and Pallas Athena (11:10am). Adding to the cosmic vibrancy of this April Fools’ Day is the annual Sun-Chiron rendezvous at 7:58pm and activating 13 degrees of Aries. Learn more about esoteric subjects — especially reincarnation, time travel, pyramid power, mandalas, meditation, yoga, ETs and UFOs. Connections between Ceres and Pluto (a tense, 135-degree aspect at 4:36am) as well as Jupiter and Uranus (an inspirational, septile of 51+ degrees at 2:12pm) can help to make this first day of April 2022 a real doozy. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Daylight Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]
