Tarot Horoscopes are back, starting with this 2024 Aries New Moon eclipse! Going forward, I will be releasing tarotscopes on every New and Full Moon. This will hopefully allow me to rest and not burn out. Speaking of rest and burn out, how are you feeling with this New Moon eclipse in Aries? Tired, overworked, underpaid, scared, and confused? Welp, you are not alone. Eclipse energy is heavy and I am here to guide you through it.

2024 Aries New Moon Astrology
Total Solar Eclipse
What is a total solar eclipse? I could sum it up for you, but I’ll admit – I’m tired and have a lot of Astrology to cover this week. So let’s let NASA cover the Astronomy part of this lesson, shall we?
As for the Astrology and tarot horoscopes, it’s worth noting that this 2024 total solar eclipse is happening because the New Moon (in Aries), is near the North Node. The North Node isn’t a planet, rather it’s a point where the Moon crosses from the south to the north side of the Suns orbit. In Astrology, the North Node represents our karmic paths and where our souls are headed.
Okay now in English… From my perspective here in St. Louis, the Moon is covering up the Sun on Monday April 8th, 2024. With this eclipse happening in Aries – the sign of independence, passion, and self assurance – now’s the time to look within and be proud of yourself. Although, eclipse energy is heavy, and it’s likely you have been beating yourself up these past few days… Don’t focus on big life goals during this time. Focus on internal healing and taking it easy. Rest, rest, rest.
Mars conjunct Saturn
Mars, the planet of war and action is bumping into Saturn, the planet of boundaries and restriction, on Wednesday April 10th, 2024. Think – hard braking, stop and go, push and pull. These planets are connecting in Pisces, the sign of mystery and delusion. So you can expect to frustrated with this energy, especially with Mercury retrograde and eclipse season in the mix.
Moving forward is not the goal right now. Surrender to Saturn and reinforce your boundaries. Whether it’s with people or work, take time for rest and block out the people/things that are contributing to your exhaustion.
Mercury (Retrograde)
Mercury stationed retrograde on Monday April 1st, 2024. I was writing a post about Mercury and the Fool tarot card, but I didn’t finish it. Rather than push through and produce crap, I realized I needed to truly take a break and rethink my writing. With Mercury retrograde (until April 25th, 2024), don’t be ashamed of having to redo your work. This doesn’t make you less than. In fact, redoing something, or re-evaluating the need for something is key in making content worthwhile.
Sun in Taurus
As fire season ends and earthy Taurus season begins on April 19th, 2024 – we reflect on the “volcanic” eruptions that occurred. Although fire energy can be overwhelming, fire is essential for discovering what we’re passionate about, what makes us move forward, and why we get angry about certain things. This Taurus season is a great time for bringing your passions to life, taking steady movement towards your goals, and planting your feet firmly into the ground as you stand up for what your believe in.
*Disclaimer – Taurus moves slowly, and I still don’t think Mercury retrograde is a great time for pushing forward. Move at your own pace. Slow and steady wins the race.*
Jupiter conjunct Uranus
Jupiter meets up with Uranus in Taurus on April 20th, 2024. For my 420, stoner pals – this will be an especially exciting day. Jupiter is the planet of evolution and expansion, while Uranus is the planet of unpredictability and freedom. The weed industry has come a long way, but there is still more work to be done. Although marijuana use isn’t free in all states here in the US, I say we take this day to celebrate the slow and steady growth of this industry.
And if you aren’t into all that, I still say you should find a way to celebrate growth on this day. We don’t always know how and when we’re going to grow and change; however, the Universe always provides.
Tarot Horoscopes
Disclaimer: This is my opinion formulated by intuition and astrological terminology. Astrology is a complex system and horoscopes are not “one size fits all”. Look to your chart to see what other planets may be affecting you at this time. If you don’t know your rising sign, or what I said doesn’t resonate, look to your sun sign and see if that resonates more. Always Keep In Mind: You know you better than I do. Take what works for you and leave the rest! Humans have free will after all 🙂
Aries

Aries, you got the King of Wands and Waxing Moon. Step into your power! This total solar eclipse is happening in your sign for a reason. It’s your time to shine.
This song, Bird Set Free by Sia, is coming to me. “Shout it out like a bird set free.” You’ve been fighting to be heard, but not anymore. You know who you are – deep down in your soul, and you don’t have to prove that to anyone. When you speak with passion, people will listen.
Taurus

Taurus, you got the Seven of Pentacles and New Moon Eclipse. So you got the New Moon Eclipse card on a New Moon Eclipse. Woo!
Waiting on the world to change? Well, keep on waiting. The world changes rapidly, yet hardly changes at all. Isn’t that funny? If you look around, things are constantly moving. Yet if you look at history, us silly humans keep repeating the same cycles.
If you look at the bigger picture that is your life, you may not see change. Yet if you look at your life through a microscope, you will see lots of change. Yes, you may not have the life you desire, but you are taking baby steps each day to tend to your needs. Be proud of the little things you have accomplished and keep moving forward.
Gemini

Gemini, you got The Sun and Blue Moon. What a wholesome pull you have this week, Gemini!
As a child, I despised the question “what do you want to be when you grow up?” In fact, I was the only kid to cry and say “I don’t know” then run off the pre-school graduation stage.
If you’re a realist like me, then I know it can be hard to imagine your wildest dreams coming true. But I want you to try. Even if you don’t know what you want to be, it’s likely because it hasn’t been invented yet, or isn’t accepted by society. Let your imagination get buck wild and someday you will see that you are becoming the person your inner child has always wanted you to be.
Cancer

Cancer, you got Queen of Swords and New Moon. The Moonology guidebook mentions this card as the most auspicious card in the deck. This is because New Moons start new phases. And life, like the Moon, is cyclical. When a new phase begins, we get the chance to start fresh.
Whether it’s a new job, home, partner, or something else – lean into the new “honeymoon” phase. Speak positively about this change, even if you are unsure about it. Let the positive energy flow through you and be confident that things will work out for the better this time around.
Leo

Leo, you got the Tower and First Quarter Moon. Will you jump ship, or will you be like the captain and go down with the ship? Neither is dishonorable, but a choice needs to be made. Unfortunately, you won’t know what your options are until the universe decides to send the storm. So…buckle up, and be prepared to make decisions on the fly.
Virgo

Virgo, you got the Hierophant and Cardinal Moon. It’s interesting how you, a mutable sign – got Cardinal Moon, while Capricorn, a cardinal sign, got the Mutable Moon card. There may be something you can learn from each other this week.
Like your fellow Earth sign, Capricorn – be bold and bossy during this new moon phase. Stop shying away from leading roles. The people need to hear what you have to say. For those who don’t want to listen, fu** em’. There are people out there who need your guidance anyway. Ignore the haters and keep speaking from your heart.
Libra

Libra, you got Two of Wands and Waning Moon. “I’ve got the whole world, in my hands” It’s funny how I remember this song as “I’ve got the whole world in my hands”, but it’s actually “he’s got the whole world in his hands.” Dang church trauma flashbacks!
With the whole world in your hands, where do you wanna go? What do you wanna do? No limits.
This New Moon eclipse is not like other New Moons, though. You might not feel like setting new goals and intentions right now, and that’s okay. Try releasing what doesn’t serve you instead. Once you release your baggage, traveling to your dream destinations will become easier.
Scorpio

Scorpio, you got the High Priestess and Balsamic Moon. The High Priestess is attuned to the Moon, just look at her feet. The crescent Moon beneath her, grounds her in her beliefs. The crescent Moon symbolizes health and inner wisdom.
These cards are telling you to focus on healing right now. Don’t dissasociate and don’t push through the pain. Take care of yourself.
If you need help, seek therapy. If you need connection, find group support. And if you need spiritual guidance, then check out my offerings. 😉
Sagittarius

Sagittarius, you got the Devil and Gibbous Moon. Who’s holding you back? I’m gonna let you in on a secret… it’s you who’s holding yourself back. You may think it’s the people around you, but ultimately, you are responsible for your actions.
You know what you want, so go get it. No excuses, no set backs – only hard work will propel you forward at this point.
Capricorn

Capricorn, you got the Wheel of Fortune and Mutable Moon. You may be feeling like the ground is missing beneath your feet. As an earth sign, you don’t love this feeling. However, your challenge is to lean into uncertainty right now. When things are uncertain, that means the possibilities are endless. Shapeshift, go with the flow, adapt to your new surroundings. As you test your options, the best option will eventually present itself.
I’m also thinking, now is a good time to lose yourself. Get lost in art. Engulf yourself in your favorite fantasy world. Succumb to delusion. You don’t need to have everything figured out all the time.
Aquarius

You got Strength and South Node. In Astrology, eclipses happen when the Sun and Moon connect with the North and South nodes. Monday’s solar eclipse is happening in Aries (opposite the South Node in Libra). What house is this happening in for you?
- Aries Rising – The eclipse is in your first house of identity.
- Taurus Rising – The eclipse is in your twelfth house of the subconscious realm.
- Gemini Rising – The eclipse is in your eleventh house of networks.
- Cancer Rising – The eclipse is in your tenth house of career.
- Leo Rising – The eclipse is in your ninth house of spirituality.
- Virgo Rising – The eclipse is in your eighth house of other peoples resources.
- Libra Rising – The eclipse is in your seventh house of relationships.
- Scorpio Rising – The eclipse is in your sixth house of routines.
- Sagittarius Rising – The eclipse is in your fifth house of fun.
- Capricorn Rising – The eclipse is in your fourth house of family.
- Aquarius Rising – The eclipse is in your third house of communication.
- Pisces Rising – The eclipse is in your second house of finances.
Lean into the themes of your Aries house. Even though there is pressure in this area of your life right now, be strong and tackle the challenges that arise – head on.
Pisces

Pisces, you got the Empress and Supermoon. Venus just left your sign and entered Aries on April 4th, 2024. Stereo-typically, people equate water signs with high emotions; however, Aries/fire signs can be just as emotional.
With all of this Aries energy in the sky, anger and passion are amplified. Don’t shy away from this energy. Lean into your passions, cry for your causes, and feel everything. But as you open yourself up to these feelings, take extra time to care for yourself – or you’ll burn out.
Summary
Eclipse season is no joke. Especially with a total solar eclipse in the mix. Some of these 2024 Aries New Moon tarot horoscopes asked you to move forward, and some asked you to rest. Whatever the advice was for you this week, go easy on yourself. Do not beat yourself up for the heaviness and chaos surrounding you. We’re all feeling it along side you.
