Steady yourself before moving forward and clarify what is important to you. While Aries may support us in being fearless, be mindful not to become reckless and overbearing. There is a utility in being big and small at the same time. We can harness our fiercest power with the grace of the Peaceful Warrior. We lead with love, and we do not compromise ourselves. These energies can coexist. In fact, when we learn to hold these polarities in tandem, we expand. The peaceful warrior does not irresponsibly wield their sword. The goal is not to cut others down because the situation may justify a battle. The peaceful warrior knows their power and yet chooses solutions based in love. We get to choose what path is right for our journey but know that consequences will follow. We have a choice - conflict or neutrality.

We have a stellium combination of Chiron, the Moon, the Sun, and Mercury, all in the sign of Aries. Chiron is the wounded healer, while Mercury is about communication. What is your inner healer trying to communicate to you? If you locate where 11-12 degrees of Aries is in your chart, this could illuminate where this growth is happening. 

• Reflection: What needs to be thrown in the cauldron of the Moon to be released and transformed? 
• Incantation: I evoke the essence of the Peaceful Warrior. Steadfast and courageous, I lead with love.
