About this episode

This episode discusses the New Moon in Ashwini, emphasizing new beginnings, energetic intentions, and the importance of mindfulness amidst impulsivity.

In today's segment we discuss the New Moon in Ashwini, which marks new beginnings and a fresh perspective.

This nakshatra is fast-moving and action-oriented, so there may be a strong urge to begin something new or make a quick decision. It’s a good time for energetic intentions, but it’s important to stay mindful of impulsivity. Akshaya Tritiya is coming up on April 19th, which is traditionally associated with long-term growth and lasting results. Actions taken now are believed to have staying power. Akshaya Tritya lands on a day of intensity this year, so be sure to focus on Dharma, Service, and Sincerity. We are still working with Yama Yoga (through May 11) keeping an environment of intensity. This combination can feel restrictive or frustrating, as Mars pushes forward while Saturn slows things down.

On a more exciting note, Venus will enter Taurus on April 19th, which will provide stability and sensuality. This is a strong placement for Venus and can help with grounding…
