NEW MOON IN ARIES AND MERCURY RETROGRADE - "THE MIND SPINS" - POSTED 3/25/17.

Watch the Entire Video

Welcome to the Musical Astrologer.  My name is Christina Malone and this week we're going to be speaking about the New Moon in Aries, as well as a Mercury Retrograde.
 
So a New Moon, as we've always said, is a time of new beginnings, and it's when the Moon and the Sun come together in the same sign, of Aries this time, and here is the symbol for Aries.  But to make matters more intense, this time we also have the planet Venus, and the planet Mercury in the sign of Aries, so we've got a lot of planets in the sign of Aries. 
 
And this particular New Moon in Aries will take place on Monday, March 27 at
approximately 10:57 PM Eastern Time.  And then at that time, because Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac, it's the Ram, and its statement is "I AM", it represents the first spark of life, the first breath of anyone's chart, the time of birth is so important, because the first house, which Aries rules, is about the first breath, and first spark of life.
 
And just like Aries also rules the Spring -- we just had the Sun go into the sign of Aries on March 20th, which is the beginning of Spring, and if you notice, in Springtime, you see little buds everywhere, and blooms coming out of the earth, but it's not full expression of the flowers yet in Spring, it's just the spark of life, the beginning of life, so that's what Aries represents -- it's a fire sign and the cardinal sign, which means it like start things, and in the body, Aries rules the head, so it's about the sinuses, and the jaw and face,  And so this is a time to be careful running around, and make sure that you're protecting your face from overdoing yourself, because there's so many planets in Aries, and there's so much fire in the sky, it's like people just want to keep going and going and going, and that's a lot of what fire energy is about.
 
What else is going to be happening is Mercury, the planet which rules the Mind, and Communication, will be going Retrograde on April 4th, and it will be starting the Mercury Storm on April 4th, but it actually goes Retrograde on April 9th through May 3rd and then the end of its Storm will be May 12, so I always count the Storm, which is the time when the planet starts slowing down. 

And it's not actually going backwards, but from our perspective, we're passing the planet, so in the ancient times, you can imagine what that must have been like, to look up at the sky, and suddenly see a planet that you've been watching go forward all this time, and all of a sudden, it's going backwards!
 
Well Mercury is the planet that relates to the "Messenger of the Gods", and if you look at the symbol for Mercury, it looks like a guy with a satellite dish on his head, or you could say he has horns on his head, so sometimes people consider Mercury relating to the mind being the devil, because the mind creates so much problems for us, so that we can consider it the devil.  So when Mercury is Retrograde, or when any planet is Retrograde, it causes everything to turn within, and there's alot of energy that is keeping us from
going forward.
 
So therefore, it's not an easy time for doing any new projects, or trying to sign a contract. or buy any kind of product that relates to communication -- so cell phones and computers and cars, anything that is related to travel, those things are problematic during Mercury
Retrograde.  Mercury Retrogrades are great for anything to do with the word Re - Re-view, Re-connect with Spirit, Re-flect, Re-charge your batteries, going back into the past and maybe looking at old projects, Re-visiting old projects this is a time when a lot of
people find that people come back to them from their past, so it's not all bad.
 
But since Mercury is Retrograde, and Venus is Retrograde, and Jupiter is Retrograde, and Saturn is Retrograde, there's a lot of energy turning within right now, so it's more of a time of reflection and review and to recharge your batteries, and as always to Meditate.
 
So, I'm going to play this song, "The Mind Spins" and I wish you all a good New Moon and Mercury Retrograde and as always, all of these songs can be found on my website, Musical Astrologer.com.  And if you want to find out where the Mercury Retrograde is taking place in your chart, you can also go to Musical Astrologer.com and find out, by
contacting me to get a reading, to find out what is the energy going on in the planets and how it is affecting you personally.
 
So, anyway, this is the song "The Mind Spins".

God Bless You All!
 
Lyrics
 
THE MIND SPINS              
Verse 1

Sometimes I think I know you
Sometimes I think I don't know
The mind spins, the mind spins
 
Sometimes I think I love you
Sometimes I start to wonder
The mind spins, the mind spins
The mind, the mind, the mind spins again
 
Chorus 1                                
Thoughts come up and thoughts go down
Worlds keep turning round and round
Where is joy then to be found
When the mind spins again?
Verse 2Try to hold on to one thought
Try to hold on to one time when
The mind spins, the mind spins
 
Try to find out who you are
Everything starts where you are
The mind spins, the mind spins
The mind, the mind, the mind spins again
 
Chorus 2
Peace and Joy are in your heart
Restlessness will soon depart
Calm the storm before it starts
When the mind spins again
Verse 3Let go of all the old thoughts
Let go of all the hard times where
The mind spins, the mind spins
 
You can be free of all thoughts
You can be free of all time
Love ends the mind spin,
Love ends the mind spin again
