JUNE 7-9: FAIR ARIES MOON

Redon's L'ange Guerrrier (Angel of War)

MOON ENTERS ARIES at 5:26pm EDT on Thursday, June 7 after a VOID OF COURSE DAY. MOON REMAINS IN ARIES until Saturday, June 9 at 3:37pm. LAST ASPECT OF MOON: Moon Square Venus in Cancer. Actions initiated during the V/C period will tend not to work out as planned. It's better to use the time for inner creative work - don't expect to get much practical work accomplished. Ruled by Mars, this Cardinal Fire sign Aries Moon is likely to be a force with which to reckon. The naturally nurturing feminine Moon will now fight for what it wants to protect. It will also probably see some feelings get hurt. Aries likes direct honesty in its actions and communications; often this can be pretty blunt, impulsive and unconsciously hurtful, especially to emotionally sensitive water signs. Just know from whence it comes and toughen up your skin as best you can. This is a good time for being active and passionate about your endeavors. While Aries is skilled at beginning projects, it's best to find support in others for completing them. The square to Venus in Cancer may see some conflicts with women. Breathe through them while finding Aries' courage to speak your truth. Remember Mars carries the Warrior Archetype and we should now have access to the strength that this symbol indicates. Remember also to use this power wisely. Actions initiated during this Moon period tend to have FAIR RESOLUTIONS.

ARIES FILM SCENE: RGB, 2018; Directors: Julie Cohen and Betsy West. The world never imagined that this demure and physically tiny (5'1") Pisces woman, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, would have become the Aries-like 'badass' legend-in-her-own-time that this film documents. But you never know what accompanies the Sun sign unless you do the natal chart. In fact, Ginsburg's courageous voice, which has formally advocated for gender equality and women's rights since 1970 (when she co-founded the Women's Rights Law Reporter the first law journal in the U.S. to focus exclusively on women's rights) is symbolized by her Mercury in Aries. RGB, which premiered this January at Sundance to rave reviews, is a survey of her profound impact on the American legal system. As the second woman to be named to the Supreme Court, when Sandra Day O'Connor retired in 2006 and Ginsburg was the sole female among the other eight justices (for three years - before Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan were named) she felt compelled to make her oft- dissenting voice heard. She says, "I did feel like kind of a kindergarten teacher in those days because the judges didn't think sex-discrimination existed." Some say the best part of the film, however, is her tender and mutually supportive relationship with deceased husband, tax lawyer Martin Ginsburg. While the feminine Moon - which, by its archetypal nature, nurtures and protects - is in the fiery sign of Mars-ruled Aries, we honor this "Notorious RGB" (as she's known by Tumblr folks to link her to rapper "Notorious BIG") for being one of the best blends of Masculine and Feminine energies we've ever seen on a movie screen...for real. She opens the trailer with: "I ask no favors for my sex. All I ask of our brethren is that they take their feet off our necks." A polite soft-spoken Aries Badass!
