Love and War: 2019's Vernal Equinox and Full Moon in Libra
We may celebrate the New Year on January 1st, but did you know that wasn’t always the case? Really, January 1st is an arbitrary date in the middle of Capricorn season. The New Year was once celebrated in the month of March (a month named after Roman War season; also, a month that corresponds with the Sun’s entrance into Aries, a sign ruled by Mars). Think about it: Why is December the 12th month? Shouldn’t it be the 10th? Why is October the 10th month? Shouldn’t it be the 8th? Well, it was once, until a new calendar was formed by Julius Caesar on January 1, 45 (only to be replaced later by our current Gregorian calendar).

Good Vibrations: February 2019's New Moon in Aquarius
The next New Moon, occurring at 15'45 degrees of Aquarius, will be exact at 4:03 PM EST on Monday, February 4th. Eclipse season may technically be over, but that doesn't mean that the revolution and evolution brought on by the last two eclipses has come to an end. The effects of an eclipse, in general, are said to last up until six months, and the upcoming New Moon in Aquarius will be a continuation of the eclipses' themes. Themes of revolution, evolution and social change.
