New Moon in Aquarius - Healing and Transformation

 On Friday February 09, 2024, we have a New Moon at 20 degrees of Aquarius. New Moons occur when the Sun and Moon are in the same sign together, so are a great time to set intentions, as the Sun is our consciousness and focus, and the Moon our emotions and subconscious. The sign of Aquarius is a forward thinking and humanitarian sign, it is also inventive and loves the unusual and avant garde and the rebellious. This is a great time to set intentions around larger humanitarian issues, global issues, or any new creative or intellectual projects. This is also a good time to focus on friendships and community involvement as Aquarius also rules these issues.

 This New Moon is the first New Moon in the sign of Aquarius since Pluto ingressed into the sign on January 20. This New Moon can be a great one for setting long term goals as Pluto will be in the sign for the next 20 years (except for a brief step back into Capricorn in autumn). What do you want to transform over the next two decades? Pluto is the god of death, hidden treasures, transformation and power, so he asks us what we need to let go of in order to be able to access our power and unearth our gifts. If you know your birth chart, take a look at your Aquarius house to see what areas of your life may need to be transformed. Even if you do not know your chart, it can be helpful at this time to set goals in areas where you feel that you need to empower yourself.

 

The Aquarius New Moon is sextile Chiron in Aries, so provides us with an opportunity to heal some of our old wounds about being seen for the unique individuals we are. How do we maintain our individuality while being part of a larger community? It is also forming a square with Uranus in Aries, which points to being challenged by sudden changes and disruptions in the world around us. How can we roll with the changes and adapt to a rapidly changing world. Me might feel like thins are moving too fast and want things to slow down so we can find our footing and stay grounded.

 

The Sabian Symbol for this New Moon is “A Woman Disappointed and Disillusioned.”  This Sabian Symbol speaks to not letting pessimism take hold when faced with difficulties and disappointment. It can be easy to lose our courage and hope when we have been let down. With the aspects of this New Moon there may be developments that leave us discouraged, but we are being asked to keep optimistic and carry on even in the face of these. We are asked to think of the long term, after all Pluto will be in Aquarius for the next two decades and a lot can happen in that time.
