When Sun and Moon join, the conscious and unconscious selves merge. There's a powerful alignment between identity and instinct, between what you show the world and what you feel inside.

This is the aspect of the New Moon—a time of beginnings, of planting seeds. The clarity that comes from this alignment can feel like knowing exactly who you are and what you want, even if you can't fully articulate it.

The challenge is that with both lights so close, it's hard to see yourself from the outside. Self-awareness requires some distance, and this aspect provides none. The gift is integration; the shadow is blindness to your own patterns.
