New Moon in Mula, the Root of Renewal

Friday, 19 December 2025 at 8:43 PM EST.

The New Moon will be in Sagittarius according to the sidereal Vedic astrology view. Sagittarius is the archer who aims his bow and hits the target of his heart’s desire, aligned with what is most beneficial for the world. He is ruled by the most benefic planet, Jupiter, the Guru. Mula is the root of our galaxy and the portal to the central Galactic sun and so is where the highest consciousness enters our reality. It is also the healing root and represents deep inner and karmic transformation. Mula is a nakshatra or star constellation ruled by Ketu, the south node of the moon, who holds the deepest spiritual energy of all the planets and indicates what we have mastered in our past lives by his placement in our birth chart. The moon represents our deepest emotional psyche and our other, both worldy and divine and so the new Moon placement in this profound nakshatra is an initiation or birth portal that involves a transformation from the very depths of our being. You will see how the other planetary placements on the day of the new moon support this message of karmic reset.

Mūla literally means “the root” and is associated with uprooting, digging to the source, endings that birth new beginnings, and deep transformation; and linked with powerful, sometimes dissolving, clearing energy. (Use this for release work, shadow-cleaning, and planting new roots afterward.)

In addition e have a triple Mula

Triple Mūla Conjunction (Sun–Moon–Mars)

Mūla is not gentle renewal—it is root removal.

Sun (sovereign consciousness), Moon (collective psyche), and Mars (will/action) together here indicate:

Collective consent to dismantle false foundations

Courage to act where truth has been buried

The end of karmic root systems that fed control, trauma, and inversion

Ketu rulership + Ketu Mahadasha

Ketu governs timeless awareness, liberation from illusion, severing of false identity

A Ketu-ruled New Moon during a Ketu Mahadasha amplifies:

Timeline collapse

Sudden clarity

Withdrawal of energy from dead systems

Non-negotiable truth surfacing

This is not about fighting controllers.

It is about removing the energetic permission that sustained them.

Jupiter opposite in Punarvasu (Gemini)

Punarvasu = “Return of the Light”

Jupiter here restores true wisdom after a storm

Gemini + Mercury rulership = corrected narratives, re-patterned thought, restored communication

This opposition says:

After the roots are pulled, wisdom returns in a simpler, purer form.

Pluto in Uttara Ashada (2nd from Moon)

This is a collective value reset.

2nd from Moon = sustenance, speech, values

Uttara Ashada = final, irreversible victory

Ruled by the Sun → truth cannot be undone once revealed

Pluto here does not threaten—it finalizes.

Cancer Ascendant in Ashlesha

This is subtle and powerful.

Cancer rising = Mother, Earth body, collective emotional field

Ashlesha = the coiled serpent, kundalini, intelligence within the waters

Ruled by Mercury → awareness rises through discernment, not force

This is the serpent uncoiling, not striking.

Collective Message

This New Moon marks a sacred ending at the root level of our shared reality.

With the Sun, Moon, and Mars united in Mūla, we stand at a moment of collective consent to release what was never meant to endure.

Mūla does not destroy life—it removes what blocks life.

It uproots false authority, inherited trauma, and timelines built on fear.

Opposite this clearing, Jupiter shines in Punarvasu—the return of the light—reminding us that wisdom is restored after the storm, not before it.

Under a Ketu-ruled sky, illusion loses its hold.

What dissolves now does so because its time is complete.

This is not a moment for resistance, but for trust.

Not a call to fight, but to withdraw energy from what no longer has truth.

As the old roots are released, new harmony becomes inevitable.

We are not entering chaos—we are exiting it.

The Karmic Axis: Why it matters here (Ketu and Rahu, the South and North nodes of the moon are the karmic axis in Vedic astrology)

Ketu in the 2nd house (Leo, Pūrvā Phalgunī)

2nd house = values, voice, sustenance, self-worth

Leo = identity, sovereignty, rightful authority

Pūrvā Phalgunī (Venus-ruled) = pleasure, creativity, generative life force

Ketu here says:

Old value systems based on status, entitlement, and inherited authority are losing their energetic charge.

This is not deprivation — it is detachment from false worth.

Because the Sun (ruler of Leo) is in Mūla:

Authority rooted in ego or domination is being uprooted at the source

What remains is heart-centered sovereignty, not performance

Venus rulership softens this:

The new value system is based on harmony, beauty, and life-affirmation, not austerity

Rahu in the 8th house (Aquarius, Śatabhiṣak)

This is one of the most important placements in the entire chart.

8th house = trauma, secrecy, collective shadow, death/rebirth

Aquarius = collective systems, technology, future timelines

Śatabhiṣak = “the hundred healers”, radical medicine, truth through exposure

Rahu here means:

The collective shadow is no longer hidden — it is being brought into awareness specifically so it can be healed.

This is not obsession with darkness.

It is exposure for liberation.

Rahu in its own nakshatra is extremely potent:

Systems built on secrecy lose coherence

Healing becomes collective, not private

Knowledge once withheld becomes shared

Saturn’s rulership of Aquarius adds:

Accountability

Consequences

Structural correction (not chaos)

2. Saturn + Neptune in Pisces: the spiritual correction

This conjunction is subtle, sober, and deeply corrective.

Pisces emphasis (9th from ASC, 4th from Moon)

9th from ASC = spiritual authority, truth teachings, higher law

4th from Moon = emotional foundation, inner home, collective safety

This shows spiritual structures themselves being purified.

Neptune in Uttara Bhādrapadā

Uttara Bhādrapadā = the “fortunate feet”, the realized one who has crossed the waters

This is not escapism Neptune — it is quiet, embodied compassion

Mercury rulership gives discernment, not fantasy

This is:

Mysticism returning to humility, service, and inner knowing.

Saturn in Pūrvā Bhādrapadā

The ascetic, the one-legged sadhu

Jupiter rulership = truth through restraint, not excess

Saturn here:

Ends false spiritual authority

Grounds true wisdom into lived responsibility

Asks: What can actually hold?

Together, Saturn–Neptune say:

Illusion dissolves, but faith remains.

Fantasy fades, but truth deepens.

The Karmic Turning

Along the karmic axis, we see a profound reorientation of value and healing.

Ketu in the second house releases outdated definitions of worth, authority, and voice — particularly those rooted in hierarchy rather than heart. What dissolves now makes space for a gentler, more harmonious way of valuing life.

Opposite this, Rahu in the eighth house brings collective shadow into the light — not to amplify fear, but to catalyze healing. In Śatabhiṣak, the work is communal: what was hidden is revealed so it may finally be resolved.

Supporting this shift, Saturn and Neptune meet in Pisces, dissolving illusion around spiritual authority while grounding truth in lived integrity. This is not the loss of faith, but its maturation.

Together, these alignments speak of a world releasing false power, healing old wounds, and remembering a quieter, truer wisdom — one that does not dominate, but serves.

The old timeline unravels not through force, but through withdrawal of belief.

A new harmony emerges because it is finally supported by truth.

Practice

“We honor this New Moon as a turning at the root of time.

Under this sky, what was built on false foundations releases its hold.

Old stories of power, fear, and separation lose their nourishment.

We do not fight what is ending.

We withdraw our belief from it.

As the roots of distortion dissolve, wisdom returns in a gentler form.

Truth becomes simple again.

Authority returns to the heart.

What was hidden comes into the light not for punishment,

but for healing — shared, collective, complete.

Illusion fades. Integrity remains.

Faith matures into knowing.

We stand steady as the old unravels.

We welcome the new harmony already forming beneath our feet.

May what is not aligned fall away with ease.

May what is true take root now.

And so it is.”
