It is encouraging endings, and making plans for the new beginnings that will arise at the next new moon cycle. However, it isn't all cut and dried. The progressed balsamic moon is very helpful with making plans, doing research, laying down foundations. It's all about summing up, but it's also about getting inclinations about where we will go. Three years is a long time--your moon is far away from the progressed new moon. Take advantage of this powerful phase of the moon to lay down foundations for the way you want your life to be in the future. Not everything dies with the balsamic moon--it's only a phase. Everything will be reborn again in the light. (PS: If your Moon is ahead of the Sun at birth (at a higher degree) it is a new moon. If it is behind the Sun (at a lesser degree) it is a balsamic moon. If it is exact, it's an interesting type that takes on the qualities of both the new and balsamic moons.) Hi RJ–A progressed balsamic moon is very much about closure.

Natally, I was born right when the sun and moon were conjunct so I'm not sure if I would be considered born on a new moon or a balsamic moon but right now, my personality is very balsamic. I had a question, and I was wondering if anyone can give me some advice. I've been writing a book for the past year (since I started my progressed balsamic phase), and my book is very prophetic and spiritual and I want to publish it through my own independent publishing house which I want to start and I want to start a counselling business (which I feel like I have been working the last 30 years of my moon cycle for). But the thing is, I don't want my business/book to wane into dissolution like the light of a balsamic moon - so I was wondering if I should wait until my progressed new moon in 3 years to start? All help is appreciated. I am currently experiencing a progressed balsamic moon and everything that you have written relates heavily to me.

It is extraordinarily meaningful! My Balsamic Moon is in the 12th house. This Capricorn Moon is the apex of a Yod and is presently being visited by a powerful Pluto transit! My Moon is one arm of a Grand Cross and opposite Saturn my chart ruler. I'm holding my own currently; working extremely diligent at getting my lessons right. Oh, North Node is in Cancer, South Node in Capricorn conjunct my Moon. What a life I have had. I feel strong, focused, productive and determined to be a shining light for others. Thank you again!

Lots of first house emphasis here, with Aries SN. But this really helps. Well, that explains it! Lots of first house emphasis here, with Aries SN. But this really helps.

Those of us with Balsamic Moons and planets in the 12th (also me--Sun/Jupiter conjunct and Pluto) seem to have an easier time with it. Balsamics with a first house or heavy Aries influence seem to have the hardest time, often fighting nodal extremes. Interesting, lots of Balsamic Moons here (me included).

I was told by astrologer, David Pond, essentially I was here to tidy up loose ends and help others - not so much a "last chance" but rather a sense of actively choosing to come back. 2007 was the year my progressed Moon was Balsamic to my progressed Sun in Capricorn. That was a very transitional year in many ways when I left my day job and started seriously developing my online presence as an astrologer. Now my progressed Moon will be moving into Aquarius by the end of January - clearly a new phase!

this is an excellent post – as a Balsamic Moon type with a prominent N Node, I find your analysis accurate personally too. If I had to retain only two factors for interpretation of an unfolding life through the Horoscope, these would be the transitting Saturn cycle and the progressed Soli/Lunar cycle….

The time before the Progressed Lunar return is an important one, a summing up of the 28 years that have come before. We're always asking ourselves, consciously or unconsciously, if we've done what we're here to do. Time to jettison the old and re-orient to the future. I've heard it said that the North Node represents an impossible dream for most people, but I've found that Balsamic Moons cannot escape nodal development, try as they might. The North Node comes through in the end when the soli-lunar phase is a later one. It's almost as if we're born with Balsamic Moons to make sure the nodal work gets done. One of the things I mean to address, or redress, on this site is the fact that both the Sun and the Moon, the two most important factors in the chart and the main indicators of soul development, have been largely ignored, if not demoted, in modern astrology. If we get back to the soli/lunar basics (which includes secondary progressions), the rest of the chart makes so much sense.

You always seems to write from a perspective I'm not used to seeing and/or of things I've never really considered before. I have a Balsamic Moon, which has been mentioned to me in passing, but I haven't known what it meant so ignored it. What you've written here really resonates. Maybe because my progressed Moon has just moved within Balsamic phase of my natal Moon I'm finding this now. Anyway, yes, lots of emphasis on my nodes, I think, throughout my life. One example: my mom had a reverse nodal axis with me, which pushed me earlier in my life to my Libra North Node. Have been learning to better (more consciously) try to balance that in more recent years. Also North Node ruler Venus conjoined Pluto has pushed me into awareness! Wow.
