Aquarius season persists, and the Water Bearer’s evolutionary work of seeking and sharing truth is just beginning. With a strong planetary emphasis on progressive ideas and humanitarian pursuits, we continue to feel the pull to claim ourselves more fully. As the Sun and the Moon align perfectly, the New Moon in Aquarius calls us to reach beyond what is and imagine what could be; to break the emotional fears that bind us to outdated conventions that no longer represent us and courageously reinvent ourselves and our future.
Aquarius, the fixed air sign is freedom loving and boundary breaking. Aquarius helps us “wake up” to who we truly are and hold on to that knowledge, even if we are out of step with those around us. Saturn in Pisces and Uranus in Taurus co-rule this Aquarius Moon with a message of commitment to spiritual guidance and compassion as we navigate the ongoing, sometimes sudden changes in our personal and collective reality.
With the addition of Mercury and Pluto in forward thinking Aquarius, our thought process and psychological focus dives into our depths. With soul searching honesty, conversations with ourselves and others can reveal important insights about genuine needs and desires that can no longer remain below the surface, especially as we consider our individual truth.
Adding stress to this lunar phase is Uranus, the great awakener, in the sign of Taurus. Challenging our foundations and pushing us to question where we stand and where we are headed, we are compelled to find balance between innovation and stability; to seek out novel solutions without losing sight of what is truly valuable. This dynamic aspect is a catalyst for growth that demands courage to change, to adapt, and to reinvent ourselves in the face of uncertainty.
During this Moon we are invited to become the alchemists of our own lives, to blend the ethereal with the tangible, the revolutionary with the reliable. Aquarius teaches us to think in terms of energy. Life is a constant give and take of energy. We are constantly absorbing and reacting to the energy around us. This is a heartfelt calling to break free from the unnecessary limitations and fears of our past and forge a future that reflects our highest ideals and most honest selves.
Ask questions of yourself and truthfully examine the why of what you’ve always done; your patterns, behaviors and emotional responses, and the satisfaction of those choices. Are there areas of life where you feel stuck or unmotivated? Is there something outside of your “norm” that you’ve always been drawn to or desired? This is the time to seek inspiration to write your own narrative, your own unique story of change. With wisdom and courage, navigate this tumultuous time of transformation and emerge with your heart and soul realigned with your truest desires for happiness and wellbeing. As we continue in this time of evolving stability, may you find the emotional fortitude and vision for a new beginning. One that allows you greater authenticity for yourself and your life.
