Transcript
- 0:00Hello and welcome back to our weekly astrology podcast where
- 0:03we light our candles. I've got a success candle today,
- 0:06which is so astrology good for the Aries New moon we're going
- 0:10to get into. We also have our blankie.
- 0:14And of course, we're going to talk all things cosmos.
- 0:17I am your host, astrologer and coach Sarah Posh in today's
- 0:20episode is the big Aries freaking new moon.
- 0:24The kick off, the jump start to the training, the boot camp that
- 0:28is this Aries new moon, this Aries lunar cycle.
- 0:31We've got Mars in Aries, Saturn in Aries, Mercury in Aries, the
- 0:35new moon in Aries. There's a lot of Aries and
- 0:38there's a lot of Saturn and there's a lot of Pluto.
- 0:41So shit's about to get real. It's about to get intense and
- 0:44we're going to get into it. We're going to get into why
- 0:46April 2026 and this new moon is legitimately one of the biggest
- 0:52actual starting points, turning of the corners, the big pivot
- 0:56before everything feels like it's actually starting to
- 0:59change. So buckle up and get your
- 1:02candle, get cozy and let's jump into the astrology of this week
- 1:05and this Aries new moon. And I'm oh so curious, did you
- 1:09watch last week's episode? Did you watch the Mars Saturn
- 1:13focus topic episode on malefic that I mentioned in last weeks
- 1:16episode that's on this channel? Do you feel like you did your
- 1:20work, your dirty work of getting prepared and learning and
- 1:25reading the full instruction manual of how to work with Mars
- 1:28and Saturn, the malefic or the difficult, challenging planets
- 1:32that we say in astrology? Because if you've been putting
- 1:35something off, if you didn't do your work, if you don't come
- 1:38prepared, this week might feel even harder than it already is
- 1:41going to feel potentially. It's exciting, but it's hard.
- 1:44And we're going to get into all of those details in this week's
- 1:46episode. But I want to hear from you.
- 1:48If you've been here and you've been on the channel, please drop
- 1:51that comment below. Tell me your rising sign.
- 1:53Tell me how you rounded out that final week of the Pisces lunar
- 1:56cycle. If you had any sweet surprises,
- 1:59restocking some supplies with that Venus sextile Jupiter that
- 2:03happened right before this new moon.
- 2:04What clarity are you standing in and what are you excited for as
- 2:08we go into this week into this Aries lunar cycle in this new
- 2:11moon, I want to hear from you. Drop that comment below.
- 2:13And also if you like this video, you like any of this content, it
- 2:15really helps me out. It helps the channel out.
- 2:17It helps the channel grow. If you hit like maybe share this
- 2:20video with your friends or your family, you can also subscribe
- 2:24and turn your notifications on. We know that if we do that, then
- 2:27we're always going to know be in the know when a new video comes
- 2:31out versus having to check the channel or make sure that you're
- 2:33looking because new videos can come out and it might be on a
- 2:36day that's not a Thursday. So anyways, thank you everybody.
- 2:39Thank you for being here. I think that I think we're
- 2:41ready. Let's get into this episode.
- 2:42Let's get fired up and fearless like a true Aries new Moon would
- 2:46want us to. The main player of this week's
- 2:48astrology and baked into this Aries New Moon is the Saturn
- 2:52Pluto sextile playing out. Remember, this is a super rare
- 2:55transit. Saturn and Pluto only come into
- 2:57this sextile once every 20 years or so.
- 3:01For instance, the last time that they had the sextile was in 1989
- 3:05when Saturn was in Capricorn and the next time won't be until
- 3:092047 when Pluto's not even in Aquarius anymore.
- 3:12So in 2026, this outer planet transit and sextile between
- 3:15Saturn and Pluto is one of the most important, significant and
- 3:18impactful transits in astrology for all of us playing out this
- 3:22year. And it's especially active and
- 3:24heightened during this Aries new moon and that previous Libra
- 3:27full moon. So I talked in that Libra full
- 3:29moon and all of the horoscopes about the relationship between
- 3:31the Saturn and Aries area of your chart and life, and then
- 3:35also the Pluto and Aquarius. And like those two houses and
- 3:38the sextile that's happening, the places that are shaking
- 3:40hands and how to work with these planets.
- 3:42I mean, let's be honest, Saturn is a heavy hitter.
- 3:45And then we got Pluto. Everything that Pluto and Saturn
- 3:48reward us with is some of the most rich rewards that we can
- 3:53receive in the effort that we put in.
- 3:55We put in our effort, our blood, sweat, tears, usually like a lot
- 3:59of tears with Pluto for sure. But when we put in that effort,
- 4:02both of these planets, they deeply reward us.
- 4:05And there's like this no going back reward.
- 4:07And nobody can take that away from you because you've earned
- 4:10that. You've earned whatever it is
- 4:11that the consequence is for better or worse.
- 4:14But if you do the work, you're in good standing with Pluto and
- 4:16with Saturn, basically in good standing with yourself and
- 4:19honest living, then those rewards are the best that any of
- 4:23the plants can give us. So this is a very impactful,
- 4:26important time and everything that we start right now at the
- 4:29time of this Aries new moon. As we get into this week's
- 4:31astrology, the decisions that are going to be coming up, the
- 4:34information that we're going to have to be reviewing the
- 4:36conversations we might need to be having, all of that is having
- 4:40a much greater deeper impact for the long term.
- 4:43So we want to make sure to take ourselves seriously, not too
- 4:46seriously that we missed to remember what it's all about.
- 4:50I think the Sun and Taurus is going to help us stay a little
- 4:52bit softer in just the right time or in just the right way we
- 4:56need to, but it won't be till after the Sun completes that
- 4:58square to Pluto in a couple weeks.
- 4:59So the first couple weeks of this Aries new moon cycle, this
- 5:02shit is intense. So buckle up and let's dive in.
- 5:05We're going to start on Thursday, April 16th with the
- 5:08Moon in Aries. It's balsamic.
- 5:10And on this day we have Mars and Aries sextiling Pluto and
- 5:13Aquarius at 5° and Mercury is making the conjunction to
- 5:17Neptune at 2° of Aries. So when Mars styles Pluto, it's
- 5:21activating that Saturn Pluto sex style like we talked about, and
- 5:24this is precision power. Mars is shaking hands with
- 5:27Pluto. This is like a controlled
- 5:30release formula being implemented or taking something
- 5:34that instead of having just the Aries Sprint that Mars is known
- 5:38for and great for, Pluto's giving some sort of insight,
- 5:41some sort of motivation, some sort of system or connection
- 5:46that's taking that Sprint and making it repeatable,
- 5:49sustainable, deepening its power, its power to initiate,
- 5:53initiate with impact. That's what this Mars sextile
- 5:56Pluto is really doing. It's saying like whatever
- 5:58decisions, whatever moves we're making right now, they carry a
- 6:00lot of potential. And the more we can stay
- 6:02connected to the Pluto and Aquarius of teamwork makes the
- 6:05dream work kind of mentality, then Mars can be the team
- 6:08captain that leads us to the finish line.
- 6:10There's gonna be a lot of competitive imagery in this
- 6:12episode, by the way. Obviously it's so Aries, Mars
- 6:15heavy, and then the Mercury making the conjunction to
- 6:17Neptune. On the other hand, this is like
- 6:19super confusing Mercury conjunct Neptune and Aries could be like
- 6:22your opinion, your sense of self-confidence, your sense of
- 6:27self assertion or agency, your willingness to courageously just
- 6:31confront or call something out. It's like it just got a
- 6:34microphone. And with the conjunction to
- 6:37Neptune, you might want to be careful what you broadcast.
- 6:39Remember, if you go back to last week's episode, I talked about
- 6:42to make planets drunk and getting drunk on Mercury and
- 6:45Aries is like getting drunk on a super heightened emotional state
- 6:51of like being super worked out and you're so passionate and you
- 6:53just want to say it and you want to scream it.
- 6:54Like maybe do some like driving, listening to music, screaming in
- 6:58your car, like out the window before you actually say
- 7:01something. Give this astrology on Thursday
- 7:04the 16th. Give it a day and instead
- 7:06channel more of your focus into working with and making the most
- 7:11of that Mars sextile instead of having to clean up the mess that
- 7:14is the Mercury conjunct Neptune. And then of course, the star of
- 7:17our show, the star of our week is going to be on Friday, April
- 7:2017th when we have that Aries New Moon at 27° of Aries 4:51 AM
- 7:26California Standard Pacific Time.
- 7:28So my tagline for this Aries New Moon is basically ready or not,
- 7:34this is the moment this Aries New Moon like I said in April
- 7:362020. Sixth, there is so much heat and
- 7:39dryness. There is so much Mars and Saturn
- 7:41and Pluto. We are getting to work and we
- 7:44need to get to work with decision and precision if we
- 7:47don't want to waste this moment, waste this opportunity to really
- 7:50start something in a solid way. I encourage you, if you haven't
- 7:53already, go back and watch last week's episode.
- 7:55I went into depth about the Mars being in Aries and dignifying
- 7:58Saturn right now and also the timeline of that and why this is
- 8:01so important to pay attention to because Saturn is not going to
- 8:04have Mars back in Aries to help him out until 2028 when he's
- 8:09actually leaving Aries leaving Mars home sign.
- 8:12So again, go over to that episode.
- 8:14Check it out on the channel into more depth.
- 8:16But for this Aries New Moon, the song that I have chosen and yes,
- 8:20babe, you can check out the Spotify playlist.
- 8:22It is available. It is linked below.
- 8:24I have curated this playlist. It has been so fun to curate and
- 8:28it's also been like I have to take breaks from it because it
- 8:31gets kind of intense. I mean, it stirs the emotions
- 8:34for sure. It stirs the passion.
- 8:36Check it out if you're interested.
- 8:37But the song for this Aries New Moon is Everybody wants to rule
- 8:40the world by Tears For Fears. Okay, even the name of the
- 8:45artist is so good. But I'm going to read you some
- 8:47of these lyrics. Welcome to your life.
- 8:49There's no turning back. Even while we sleep, we will
- 8:53find you acting on your best behavior.
- 8:56Turn your back on Mother Nature. Everybody wants to rule the
- 8:59world. It's my own design.
- 9:01It's my own remorse. Help me to decide.
- 9:04I mean, what more perfect of a song could there be for this
- 9:09Aries new moon with that Mars, soon to be Mercury right around
- 9:13the corner, Saturn and the sextile the Pluto.
- 9:16I mean, this is so good. Definitely go check out that
- 9:20song. Listen to the playlist, read the
- 9:22lyrics and also think to yourself like everybody says
- 9:26they want to rule the world or their world.
- 9:29What is it that you want to rule?
- 9:30Like what world do you to have power?
- 9:33Do you want to create and why do you know your why do you know
- 9:38your starting point? Do you know if you have what it
- 9:41takes to become the person that makes it a reality?
- 9:43Because everybody says they want to rule the world.
- 9:46Everybody says they want to create something manifest.
- 9:49Big things have big impact. But there's a the reason why not
- 9:52everybody does. So I love the song.
- 9:55And I hope at the time of this Aries New moon, you were feeling
- 9:57like, yeah, I do want to rule my world.
- 10:01I do want to make this real. And I know why.
- 10:05And I'm ready to do what it takes to make it work.
- 10:07All right, let's go ahead and keep going.
- 10:08On Saturday, April 18th, we have the moon in Taurus.
- 10:12This is a little bit gentler than Friday's Aries New moon,
- 10:15where the moon was new. And then as it was waxing, the
- 10:18first thing you did was hit that square to Pluton, Aquarius.
- 10:20Ouch. Land lines, trigger zones,
- 10:22anybody? But on Saturday with that moon
- 10:25and Taurus, now it's going into that sextile to Jupiter.
- 10:28There's a conjunction to Venus and Taurus.
- 10:31And on this day on Saturday, Mercury and Aries is making the
- 10:33sextile to Pluto and Aquarius at 5°.
- 10:36So we're just tethering, weaving, whatever came up,
- 10:39whatever was started, whatever passions were recovered or like
- 10:43resurrected when Mercury was conjunct Neptune and Mars was
- 10:48sextile included the day before this Aries new moon.
- 10:50So Thursday, now today on Saturday, Mercury is here.
- 10:54So we are ready to communicate or to come into sort of exchange
- 10:57with other people. Mercury is trade.
- 10:59Mercury has to do with the trade of information through
- 11:02communication and conversation has to do with travel.
- 11:05So this might be a today if we're putting our money where
- 11:08our mouth is when Mercury sextile and Pluto.
- 11:10Yes, do that. And also make sure to use your
- 11:14mouth to help make you the money to make your dreams come true,
- 11:19to make these potential new things starting a reality.
- 11:23All right then on Sunday, April 19th, we've got that Moon in
- 11:26Taurus making that conjunction to Uranus at 29° and then
- 11:30entering into Gemini. And I just have like 1 tagline
- 11:33for that Moon. You're honest.
- 11:35Entering the Gemini threshold is the plot twist isn't the
- 11:38problem, it's the update. So just keep that in mind.
- 11:42What if whatever plot twist you're honest shakes up or
- 11:46breaks up? What if that isn't actually a
- 11:47problem? It's just the update or the
- 11:50start to the updates that are about to come in full force when
- 11:53you're honest actually gets into Gemini.
- 11:55Yes, this cycle and then on Sunday, the other two things
- 11:58happening is we have the sun entering into Taurus, which does
- 12:01feel like a helpful slowdown in the astrology because everything
- 12:06else in Aries is doing everything but wanting us to
- 12:09slow down. So that's on in Taurus.
- 12:11It's also keeping our focus and our intention on the quality of
- 12:14things, making sure that we are measuring twice, cutting once.
- 12:20We are researching our investments before we're just
- 12:24throwing our money, our investments, our time, our
- 12:27energy, our yeses and our Nos. They are being weighed.
- 12:30They are being highly, deeply, thoroughly considered with that
- 12:34Sun in Taurus, If you ask a Taurus every Taurus, no,
- 12:37sometimes less is definitely more if the more has better
- 12:41quality and brings you greater peace.
- 12:44And then of course, like the heaviest hitter of this week's
- 12:46astrology that's playing in to this Aries New Moon.
- 12:49And this week is on Sunday the 19th, we have Mars making the
- 12:53exact conjunction to Saturn at 7°.
- 12:55So the song for my Mars Saturn conjunction is work it, the soul
- 13:00wax remix by Marie Davidson. And if you've never listened to
- 13:05this song, it's like an EDM dance song.
- 13:07It is so fun. And it's also like as a
- 13:10Capricorn Mars Saturn girly. It's like no bullshit.
- 13:14And it's so funny. It gets me going.
- 13:16But I'm going to read you these lyrics.
- 13:18You want to know how I get away with everything?
- 13:20I work all all the fucking time from Monday to Friday, Friday to
- 13:26Sunday. I love it.
- 13:27I work like there's more to it, but it's so funny.
- 13:31Even the part it says now I don't want to see any fake ass
- 13:35workers. I need real builders work it.
- 13:38It's so good. OK, go listen to the song if you
- 13:40haven't already. It's so good.
- 13:41And so Mars Saturn conjunction in Aries.
- 13:45It's time to get to work. And the other thing about this
- 13:47Mars Saturn conjunction is remember it's not just a
- 13:49conjunction to Saturn. Mercury's also right there and
- 13:52that sextile to Pluto and Aquarius is happening at the
- 13:54same time. And Pluto by itself.
- 13:56An Aquarius is the power to know that you can only get so far or
- 13:59achieve so much on your own talents, your own personal
- 14:02desires. That fuel of Mars and Aries.
- 14:05It might get you somewhere fast, but it's not going to carry you
- 14:08as far as remembering that tagline.
- 14:10Teamwork makes the dream work. So my choice of example for this
- 14:14energy, this transit, really the series in the moon is this scene
- 14:18in the movie Miracle, which is based off the true story of the
- 14:21USA Hockey team. And there's this scene a miracle
- 14:24when the USA Hockey team loses to Norway, which they like
- 14:28shouldn't have lost to in this movie.
- 14:29It was like, you know, they're kind of falling apart as a team.
- 14:31There's a lot of really strong players, but they all come from
- 14:34different places and they have not learned how to work together
- 14:37cohesively as a team for one shared goal 1 shared unit.
- 14:42Like they're still kind of competing against each other to
- 14:44be the best because they're the best where they come from.
- 14:46And anyways, in this scene, a miracle when they lose, Kurt
- 14:49Russell, who plays the coach in the movie, does the legendary
- 14:52conditioning sprints. It is so hard to watch.
- 14:55It is depressing. It is sad.
- 14:57It is like these boys are just again, he he literally again,
- 15:03again, again until they shut down the lights and ice cream
- 15:06rink and he's like, again, again.
- 15:08People are like, I think we're done.
- 15:10I think we're done, coach. I think they get it.
- 15:12And he's like, no, they don't again.
- 15:16And he says something about how you can't win on talent alone.
- 15:19You don't have enough talent to win on talent alone.
- 15:22You're going to have to work for it.
- 15:24And then finally, after like getting literally beaten down,
- 15:28so Saturn, Pluto, one of the players finally calls out his
- 15:31name. They're all heaving.
- 15:33There's literally people melting on the ice on the floor.
- 15:36And for the first time in the movie and in any of the players
- 15:40on the team, he calls out his name and he declares that he
- 15:43plays for the United States of America.
- 15:46So this transit, this area cycle, it's like getting broken
- 15:50down so far by a coach that sees the potential in you so clearly
- 15:55and sees exactly what it's going to take, how far it's going to
- 15:59break you down in order to get you actually available to
- 16:04actualize that potential. This is that moment.
- 16:06It's like this day is revealing to us the places where we need
- 16:10to break down in order to have that breakthrough, where it's
- 16:14going to require more than just talent alone.
- 16:16And there's this weight in our energetic investments and our
- 16:21choices and the things that we're choosing to fight for the
- 16:24people that we're on a team with.
- 16:26We have to level up. Like this is this is just this
- 16:29no bullshit kind of day and kind of transit.
- 16:31And it's heavy and it's hard, but it's only through the
- 16:34humility of a Mars Saturn. Budo is in their transit that
- 16:40just like this team that went on to win the Olympics that year
- 16:44and then they had a movie called Miracle made about it.
- 16:46Like, I mean, just like that, that is born, that's born from
- 16:50the hard that begins on days like a Mars, Saturn conjunction.
- 16:54So definitely take note of what's coming up on the weekend
- 16:58following this new moon of what feels hard, what feels heavy.
- 17:01And it's testing you. It's testing the reality of how
- 17:03much it's going to take. And that might be a sobering
- 17:06wake up call that it's going to be hard and you have to decide
- 17:11if it's worth it. That's really what this is all
- 17:13coming down to. Let's go forward Monday, April
- 17:1520th. The Moon is in Gemini still and
- 17:18it's void of course, all day, which is interesting because on
- 17:21the 20th, this is the grand finale, the final conjunction
- 17:25between Mercury and Mars and that five part series that
- 17:29started back in October of 2025. I have a video on the channel
- 17:33linked going over the Mercury Mars conjunction series.
- 17:37I went through every single one of those five that have been
- 17:39playing out since October. So you can go back and watch
- 17:42that video and also track as these conjunctions were
- 17:45happening since October to now. What is it that's been
- 17:49developing? What story has been developing?
- 17:51What decision have you been researching, mulling over?
- 17:55What information have you been processing or integrating?
- 17:58There's a deep thought process that we've been a deep review, a
- 18:03deep just analysis that now we're getting to this point on
- 18:07the 20th. It's done, we've reached it.
- 18:09The final pieces of the information have finally
- 18:11arrived. And now it's time to make some
- 18:14real decisions, some hard decisions, because this this
- 18:17time when Mercury makes the conjunction to Mars on Monday,
- 18:21that means it's also conjunct Saturn in Aries.
- 18:24So the final of this series that's been playing out over
- 18:27time and it's conjunct Saturn sextile Pluto.
- 18:30Like shit is getting real. And one way to think about this
- 18:34or like a tagline that was kind of coming up for me is there are
- 18:36things in life in a very Saturn Pluto way that are good to know
- 18:42and hard to know. Hard to know, good to know.
- 18:45For instance, when you wake up to realizing that the resentment
- 18:49that you were feeling in your relationship with somebody was
- 18:52not about what they were doing or not doing.
- 18:54It was actually a hard truth that you weren't setting proper
- 18:59boundaries, that you weren't being honest about your
- 19:00boundaries. You weren't being honest about
- 19:02your expectations. That's hard to know, and that's
- 19:06good to know because the second you know that, all of your power
- 19:09comes back because you have the opportunity to show up and make
- 19:11a different choice and to make a change to maybe set that
- 19:14boundary. So just pay attention.
- 19:16There's some final pieces of information of understanding.
- 19:19They're coming through on Monday the 20th and they're heavy,
- 19:23they're weighted, they're sobering, They're not easy to
- 19:26see or to look at these conversations that might be
- 19:29coming up. They're not fun, but they are
- 19:32deeply worth it. And also, again, it's about
- 19:36stepping into a greater state of maturity, ownership,
- 19:39accountability, and also having the courage and the conviction
- 19:45to see whatever you need to see, say whatever you need to say,
- 19:48hear whatever you need to hear. If it's all going to serve the
- 19:52clarity that's been building and coming through this Aries new
- 19:54moon. Of your intention, of what world
- 19:55you want to create, of what world you want to build, of what
- 19:58boot camp and training camp you're signing up for.
- 20:00You're saying yes to the assignment of being on that
- 20:04miracle USA winning team. Even though it's uncomfortable,
- 20:08it has to be worth it. And you're the only one that can
- 20:10decide that. So pay attention.
- 20:11To that and if you delayed doing any kind of Aries new moon
- 20:16ritual or writing down your intentions, don't worry, I think
- 20:19you could still do it totally on Monday and Tuesday, especially
- 20:23on Tuesday. The moon's going to go into
- 20:24cancer. It's growing in light.
- 20:25It can see that 27° place where this new moon happened on the
- 20:30weekend before on Friday. And also at this point, you
- 20:33might just have a little bit better clarity to actually write
- 20:37invoke, you know, draw up the actual contract that you're
- 20:41you're going to sign with that Aries new moon.
- 20:43All right, everybody, thank you so much for being here.
- 20:45And if you haven't already and you like this video, you like
- 20:48any of this channel's content, it helps the channel so much if
- 20:50you can actually hit like on the video, maybe comment on the
- 20:53video and tell me how you're doing, where you're at, what
- 20:55you're feeling, leave your rising sign if you comment,
- 20:58because it always kind of helps me give a little bit of
- 21:00orientation to maybe hear what you're going through and where
- 21:03all the astrology is happening in your chart specifically.
- 21:07And then also like I mentioned earlier, there's everything
- 21:09linked below this episode. So we've got the new Aries new
- 21:12Moon Spotify playlist. It's linked below all of my
- 21:15digital products, including that Saturn in Aries workshop that's

- 21:24astrology consultations. You can check all that below
- 21:27this episode. And I am rooting for everybody
- 21:30for this Aries new Moon. I'm rooting for our highest and
- 21:33our best. And even if it's hard, I hope
- 21:35that Mars and Aries coach gives you the speech and the punishing
- 21:39conditioning you need to step into your greatest potential.
