How do you fight for justice when it feels like we’re living in the age of the autocrat? When the Aries new moon (supermoon and partial solar eclipse!) arrives on March 29, 2025, that question can be tackled.
Our Aries new moon rituals can help you tap your inner freedom-fighter and defend what’s sacred, without burning out in the process.
We are living in a time when power feels increasingly centralized. Narratives are tightly controlled. Individual voices are drowned out by fear or uncertainty.
Yet, Aries—the zodiac’s fearless warrior—teaches us that rebellion isn’t always about brute force, but rather resilience, strategy, and refusing to shrink in the face of oppression.
Whether you’re dealing with a toxic leader at work, injustice in your community, or fearfully witnessing the rise in authoritarian governments, the March 2025 Aries new moon (supermoon and solar eclipse) gives you the cosmic fuel to fight back, and these Aries new moon rituals are action-oriented to give you results.
Remember: Aries doesn’t always fight with fists; sometimes it fights with focus. In the age of autocracy, your sharp mind, unrelenting heart, and willingness to act—even in small, consistent ways—are radical in themselves.

Aries new moon rituals for 2025
Try one of these Aries new moon rituals to confront anything with intention, intelligence and an unshakable inner fire.
1. Rebel with a blueprint
Aries is all about first moves and fearless momentum—but this new moon asks you to pause just long enough to sketch your battle plan. Where are you feeling the urge to break free or challenge the status quo? Before you charge ahead, get clear: What’s the outcome you actually want? Who needs to hear your voice—and how can you deliver it with both impact and intention? This isn’t about silencing your fire, it’s about aiming it with precision. Aries energy thrives on bold beginnings, but lasting change comes when instinct meets strategy.
Social change research from Erica Chenoweth, a First Amendment professor at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, shows that sustained, strategic nonviolent action is more effective than aggression.
How to make your blueprint:
For this Aries new moon ritual, start by naming the source of your tension:
- Is it a power dynamic at work? A pattern in your relationships? A system or structure that feels limiting? Aries energy will spotlight where you’re itching for change.
- Once you’ve zeroed in, define your desired shift—what would freedom or balance actually look like in this situation?
Then, reverse-engineer the steps:
• Visualize the ideal future! If you had already achieved your end goal, what would it look like? Write out a scenario in your journal as if that has happened.
• Map out a plan, moving backwards from your end goal to where you are now: What are some milestones you’d have to achieve along the way?
• Act: What’s the smallest, first action you could take to push the needle? Maybe it’s a candid conversation, setting a firm boundary, or rallying allies to a shared cause.
• Mantras: Once you have your blueprint (which is a living plan that will change over time), make a mantra for yourself. You could try filling in these blanks:
- “I’m ready to disrupt _______ by taking bold action on _______.”
- “I claim my power by _______ and ignite change by _______.”
- “I refuse to stay silent about _______; my next fearless move is _______.”

2. Refuse to normalize injustice
“Desensitization creep” is the psychological term given to becoming numb to escalating injustice over time. When we heard this term it really hit home to describe how we’ve been feeling. You may have heard the analogy of a frog in a boiling pot of water that doesn’t realize it’s getting hotter and hotter since the temperature is turned up slowly. The March 29 Aries new moon (during Aries season) is our wake-up call to stay clear-eyed about what matters. Here’s a ritual to keep you aware before things get too hot to handle.
Aries new moon ritual: A Red Flag Journal
• Document injustices: Keep a log of the moments that feel off—even subtle ones.
• Reflect weekly: Where are you rationalizing what once outraged you?
• Reclaim your outrage: Anger is your ally. Let it catalyze intentional action, not helpless scrolling (see Ritual 1 above!)

3. Build your ‘Courage Council’
No one fights alone. Collective resilience is armor—and research has shown that social connection lowers cortisol and sharpens problem-solving under stress. At the same time, being around stressed out people can stress you out. Regulating the activities you do with others can be helpful. How about meeting for yoga or a sound bath, cooking a meal together or singing karaoke? Soothing each other’s nervous systems, with the help of endorphins and bonding-hormone oxytocin, is just as important as attending a town hall.
Aries new moon ritual: Courage Council
• Find your allies: Who challenges power alongside you? Who’s quietly rooting for change?
• Create space: A monthly meeting, text thread, or safe physical gathering for mutual support, idea-sharing and venting (with action items to direct your energy).
• Fortify each other: Celebrate wins, grieve setbacks, and stay emotionally fueled to resist together—and rest together!

4. Tell a better story
Authoritarian systems—whether in the world or your own mind—feed off disempowering narratives. They survive by convincing you that your voice is too small, or your power too limited to make waves. Aries energy won’t stand for that. This new moon is your call to flip the script, reclaim your agency, and reframe your role as the lead character in your own revolution. The stories you tell yourself shape how you move—and how loudly you roar.
Aries new moon ritual: The Narrative Rewrite
• Write your “I’m done playing small” manifesto: Draft one bold page that says exactly what you’re no longer tolerating—and what you’re stepping into instead. Use language that feels sharp, direct, and undeniable. Think declarations, not apologies. Where are you done shrinking, settling, or second-guessing?
• Shift the lens: Now, challenge yourself: Where are you already resisting the old narrative, even in subtle ways? Name how you’ve shown courage, defied expectations, or chosen self-respect over silence. Aries asks you to honor the rebel you already are.
• Make it real: Read your manifesto aloud—either to your Courage Council (see Ritual 3) or simply to yourself, out loud and unflinching. Keep it visible—a reminder taped to your mirror, tucked in your journal, or saved on your phone—as your private battle cry.

5. Desire as strategy (it’s not selfish)
Desire isn’t reckless—it’s a blueprint for impact. Aries energy reminds us that wanting more isn’t indulgence, it’s leadership. Studies show that people who own and articulate their desires tend to be more effective changemakers. Why? Because clarity creates momentum. When you ask for what you want—whether it’s wealth, influence, freedom, or recognition—you carve out space for yourself and model possibility for others. Your boldness isn’t just personal; it can be a catalyst for collective growth.
Aries new moon ritual: The “Prosper to Share” Map
• Name your unapologetic desires: What do you deeply crave—but hesitate to admit? The things that feel too much, too ambitious, or too bold. Write them down without softening the edges. Wealth, power, visibility, leadership—let it all out. Aries energy thrives on directness.
• Expand the ripple effect: For each desire, trace how it can empower both you and your wider ecosystem. If you gain influence, who else benefits? If you earn more, how could you reinvest in your community or inspire others to claim abundance? Aries leads the charge, but true leadership pulls others forward too.
• Anchor the vision: Close your eyes and visualize these wins fully realized—personal and communal. Picture the tangible impact: the doors opening, the energy shifting, the people rising alongside you. Let that dual focus of self and collective fuel your drive and give your desires deeper roots.
