Sun in Aries. Moon in Aries.
I bet you can feel the sky has gotten hot. Double Aries arrives, and of course, new possibilities have begun. In North America, we are in spring. So exciting.
I can feel the spring in my step: Aries has happened to me too. Truth be told, our whole world is consciously or unconsciously feeling it.
Personally, I have had a big change of late. I started dating someone. The Aries in my chart just charged through my stale patterns of thought. I had said, “No more dating.” Then, as Aries would have it… an opportunity arrived. What Aries would let an opportunity go by?
I jumped in, knowing full well I can carry my own in pretty much any situation. Truth be told, my male side (Aries) can be trusted to protect and hold my tender heart safely. I can be impulsive while still protecting my tenderness. I do this by keeping my Observer nearby.
If you know me, you know I am available at the moment. I am ready to jump. Ready is the posture for any warrior. Stand up and be alert. Take responsibility. Be the leader. My Moon is in Aries- I am built for the job.
I jumped in the deep end without losing my awareness. After I opened my heart just a bit- because I was there looking from the Observer’s point of view- I could read the signs. Suddenly I heard: slow it down AND stay open. So I did.
It is so easy for Aries to be impulsive, with no concern for what happens next. Just take the risk. I get that. And then, as I teach, I practice the Observer, and went up to the balcony to reflect.
And, as I age, I realize how important it is to consult those I trust- sharing out loud what is happening, being transparent. This is not typical Aries- the low road of Aries is to be ultra-independent, act strong, not listen to advice until everything goes wrong, and then they come, sore and flustered, to gather wisdom.
The wise Aries knows when to stop right at the beginning. To go slowly while moving.
Ok, enough about me. Let’s talk about us. At this time in our zeitgeist, it is true: we all need to be impulsive and stand up, holding our own male side intact, remembering to go up into the balcony for reflection at any time.
Our world is waking up: we are remembering our role on this planet- to simply be ourselves while keeping our hearts open. To be alert enough to react to the news. To get upset. And then to stop.
Too many people I know have given up on the news. Too much. Their Fire has gone out from exhaustion. This is why the balcony is so important. What will it take to keep your heart open? To take chances, get it wrong, get upset, and then calm down?
Now more than ever, we must be in our Aries. Don’t worry if you can’t find that part of you. On the 16th this month, there will be 6 planets in Aries! And seven including Chiron. Surely we will all enter into this conversation one way or another.
Which is it: either you are running hot and need to know how to stop, or your Fire is out and you need to know when to start? You are upset and angry, or passive and losing hope.
Wherever you are in the cycle, please try to keep your heart open. Go ahead, feel the discomfort. Reach out to those you go to for comfort, and then come on up here, in the balcony where Astrologers love to hang out. Bring your friends with you. Community is so important right now!
What if we all knew how to open our minds like a child after being hurt- and not shut down? Try again and again. The mantra of double Aries is: never give up. NEVER.
Without fear… if you know how to hold your own heart, to do self-comfort, to go find your faith, and recommit.
Do you know that your male side is strong and independent, not afraid of trying new things? Go ahead and experience (I said to myself, “go on the date”). We have to walk past our comfort to grow, right?
This is how we maintain hope inside this existence. How many single people give up on dating? How many married people let their marriage get stale in fear of rocking the boat? In either case, if you are running dry, feeling depressed, without motivation- meet with one of my Astrologers. Ask what is holding you back. We all need reflection.
This is the season to just take a risk and get it wrong, in big and small ways. Our governments are all doing the same, taking crazy risks. This is how we learn- by getting it wrong. Just the truth.
The jury is out on this interesting man that I have been dating. It’s all good. I am safe. My male side has my back. I can afford to take risks. I trust myself.
How about you and your Aries energy? Can you trust yourself to get it wrong, get up on the balcony, and be gentle no matter the results?
Dear Debra,
Good for you! Keep it up.
MAZEL TOV!
Yes Debra! I love it! Stand tall with courage and an open heart! Take whatever steps forward for a new beginning with trust in your heart! Charge ahead like the Ram with confidence and a full heart. Stand tall and bright for truth…in the world and in your life! I’m so in love with this energy! I feel optimistic for my path and for the world even in the middle of this turmoil! A’HO friends and family! It is time to channel the courage to be your best self!
Ohh la la!!!!!!
Rising sign in Aries with Gemini Sun and Taurus Moon. I was never one who cries easily. Lately it’s been waterworks. Over a week ago I began attempting to locate my ex-husband from over 30 years ago. I had lost all documents verifying my name change in a fire in 2003. Suddenly I felt an urgency to contact him to see if he could help. Although we had parted as friends, I felt enormous anxiety at reaching out. After many attempts, I finally heard back from his wife yesterday. She informed me that he had passed away the previous week. and she was in the process of clearing out his files and planned to also cancel the phone number. She found the file I needed and is mailing it today. Grateful for that divine nudge while also experiencing a serious case of woulda-shoulda-coulda. He was a good man with a brilliant mind and I needed decades of therapy.
YES! THANK YOU DEBRA for reminding me that we must NEVER GIVE UP! I just wrote it in big letters across the top of my wall calendar. Yesterday I had a brief meltdown when I discovered that my business checking account went from $98 to $5 due to an overdue auto payment that found the ample balance and took it! I was so outdone that I began to cry and fuss with myself — and it was totally my fault! Then a calm came over me, realizing that it was most likely for the best that that overdue bill was finally paid, and that it’s okay and I’m okay, and that I must never give up, even when things seem a bit bleak! I went out for a walk at twilight to a local park. When I got there, I sat down under a tree and meditated on the wondrousness of an early evening in L.A. and my capability to walk to this particular park in my neighborhood. It was so soothing and reassuring. I was then able to walk back home peacefully, knowing that I am blessed and a child of the Divine, and that it’s all part of the onslaught of Aries-Aries energy which comes to completion on this Thursday. I don’t have any planets in Aries in my chart — EXCEPT FOR MY NORTH NODE in Aries in the 10th house of CAREER! That’s what all my anxiety is about these days. And I recognize that the Universe is reminding me of who I am and of what I’ve come here to accomplish! I am grateful! I so appreciate your teachings and your example of such a beautiful human being who is truly here to serve and remind us of WHO WE ARE! Thank you Debra!!!
Thank you, Debra, this is so insightful! I’m afraid I’m pretty low on my fire. I’ve been dealing with my son’s mental illness for a year now, my dog was just diagnosed with a lesion on her brain, and my best friend was just diagnosed with cancer! I’m tired from worry and sadness. I will try to find my fire again.
Oh, and by the way, I’m sure I’m not alone in saying that I’m so happy to hear that you’re enjoying dating again and that I love reading about the new man in your life!
Vulnerability. It’s difficult when you’re an independent thinker, actor, genuine to your strength to lean into the vulnerable. Play for me is difficult. How to play again at 70? After so much life we know ourselves. Yes it’s easy to not take a friend on as a partner because we know how to roll without interruption. But to understand our vulnerable side and let another lead us into spontaneous joy? That’s the lesson. That’s what having someone in our lives means. Time to understand the flip side of strong and reliable to self.
You got this, you know. Enjoy the softness for awhile. 🐣
Hello Debra I have a stellium of Mars- (on the cusp of Aries) then Venus – Mercury – Sun and North Node. All in 8th house. Imagine with all those actual transits in Aries. Does it mean my death is near? I have Virgo rising and Neptune/moon Libra in 1st.
An astrologer (Carole Devine) years ago did my chart but she said she didn’t know how to interpret it because she had never seen a chart like mine before.
Do you have a hint? I am in your group
Preciousness to be experiencing a guy!! Wishing it to be a pure and positive, just supernaturally wonderful, reciprocated, deeeelightful and long connection!! Two calibrated, centered Souls meeting up to make life double the fun! These are absolutely the days just as you described, to get upset, re-center, then proceed forward remaining open.. no more rushing; so much less urgency with a focus on true connections!
I be loved this post. I especially liked the fact of never giving up!
Hi Debra,
I love your energy. My husband died of a heart attack 11/28/2025. I am slowly recovering. Hopefully I will be able to find love again in the midst of everything. I’m so happy for you! Keep love alive!!
Janet
Debra, so happy for you. You give so much to everyone. It is long overdue for you to play and have some fun. Enjoy every minute. I hope it works out, but if not, get your Aries to say NEXT, not never again and play some more.
I LOVE YOU THANK YOU
How exciting! And (in my opinion) anxiety inducing. I haven’t dated since my divorce, but I can’t say I’ve ever been a fan. The experimental “let’s try each other on for size” random pick off the rack vibe. Except clothing doesn’t come with expectations or baggage from previous wearers. And it doesn’t mind if you return it because it didn’t fit. I need to know someone well before I cross that line. Because I end up all-in when I do. But as I just had a birthday, this ♈️ trine (Sun, Moon, Mercury) is channeling all her chi into her son getting through high school and can’t afford the distraction. I’ll be in the balcony, but I may crowd dive someday.
Dear Debra
Hello there, I would like to say first that Debra is an amazing person, and I am so lucky to have come across you on Facebook, and youtub . Since I have been following you, I have learned so much about myself and my husband who I have been with as of yesterday 25 years and I really think that I have found my soulmate.

I would love to see if I have anything that is blocking me from moving forwards in life and just why can’t I go forwards and feeling like I am at a stop and just doing the same thing over just a different day, time, month, year same two people doing the same thing over and over every day it is like we are stuck in the same pattern and doing this for 27 years SOMETHING has to change cause this has become BORNING !!!!!! so please Debra can you and your team help a girl out with this I want to make things fun and exciting not this same thing every day for all these years together so far . Thank you for all your wise thoughts and I really hope to find out just what is doing this for me and good luck with your date. thank you so much
