Our ancestors knew that the Sun burned and the Moon did not: she carries light, they said. The New Moon is the phase in her monthly journey when she is completely herself, dark and tidal.
In this first installment of our monthly salons, astrologer Carol Ferris will offer insights into the astrology of the month around the ritual of recognition of each month’s New Moon.
In January, the New Moon is in Capricorn. If we think of light as yang, energy without form, and dark as yin, the form that holds the yang light, then the New, Dark Moon in Capricorn is yin within yin. It is the darkest Moon in the darkest time of year. It's a time for deep conservation of energy, cultivation of form/body, and the rest that leads to motion as the light returns.
But Carol wonders: will that deep rest be possible as the Sun and Moon feel the embrace of Pluto, also in Capricorn? It is Pluto who brings the lights deep into the underworld.
In this salon, we'll explore the implications for the month and offer insights for your month ahead.
If you have a copy of your own horoscope, it will be possible to trace these currents to your own experiences.
About Carol Ferris
Carol Ferris is a full-time consulting astrologer, teacher, and private tutor of astrology with four decades of experience. She completed her Masters in Interdisciplinary Studies at Marylhurst University. The title of her thesis, The Sky's Body: Constellations and Medicine reflects her ongoing interest in nature-based medicine and governance thinking of the ancient Near East and Chinese philosophers and astrologers. Carol's work with the multivalent symbols of astrology is interwoven into work with dreams and active imagination. Over the years, Carol has seen these two frameworks —astrological mapping and Jungian imagery —as mutually beckoning guides to understand how all life, in its exquisite specificity, rises from a unified field.
