New Moon in Aquarius: An alchemical invitation
29th January PST 04:35 | EST 07:35 | GMT 12:35
The new moon in Aquarius arrives to embolden and inspire us. Unconventional and unapologetic, this new moon sparkles with the potential of doing things differently. Recognising our place in the universe and how we contribute to it is part of her transformational invitation. Will you accept? Let’s consider it together…
A new moon symbolises fresh starts and marks the beginning of the lunar cycle. In a future focused air sign like Aquarius, the new moon is asking us to pick up the pace and consider the change we’d like to see. The question of how we define ourselves and how we serve the collective is key to embracing Aquarius energy. This is about being real, showing up and moving forward.
Whilst we are still contending with retrograde energy in other parts of the sky, Uranus, the modern ruler of Aquarius, will end its retrograde the day after the new moon, underlining a change of momentum. We’ve also got Jupiterian energy in the mix suggesting that new ideas and connections could be abundant under this moon. On a more intense note, Pluto and Mercury, also in Aquarius, are deep in conversation. A potent, alchemical mix!
So how can we embrace this new moon and all she brings?

Ways to work with the new moon in Aquarius:
● Think outside the box: If the way you have been viewing a situation feels stagnant, take some time out. Try approaching it creatively and view it from a fresh angle.
● Seek inspiration: Who or what feeds your imagination? Try listening to a motivational podcast or visiting a place that inspires a sense of freedom.
● Strengthen your connection to the cosmos: Take in the night skies. The new moon isn’t visible, but you can follow the lunar path throughout the month. January and February are fantastic months for star gazing.
● Recognise authenticity: Send some gratitude out to the special people in your life who bring honesty and genuine connection to your world. Celebrate these VIPs!
● Keep your mind open and feet on the ground: As we navigate this new moon and changeable Aquarius energy, breathwork and meditation are helpful in honouring both air and earth elements.
Let the insights land…
New moon energy is potent for exploring and setting intentions. We can help this process by journalling, meditating or simply finding some quiet time to visualise achieving our goals. As this is an airy new moon with mixed energy, my suggestion would be to capture any insights as they land and get them down on paper. This should prove fruitful as the month continues.
