During Aquarius season, the solar light of altruism energizes our evolutionary soul growth. As we delve into our emotional depths to understand our needs for continued happiness and well-being, the first New Moon of the year, in Aquarius, urges us to listen to the whispers of our hearts. We are in an era of profound awakening, releasing what we've outgrown and setting intentions that honor our innermost vision and personal identity while also contributing to the greater familial bonds of humanity.
Symbolized by the Water Bearer, a seeker of truth and knowledge, freedom-loving and inventive Aquarius naturally aligns with humanitarian concerns. Co-ruled by Saturn, currently in Pisces, and Uranus, currently in Taurus, a commitment to spiritual guidance, compassion, and integrity is essential for navigating the many chaotic changes in both our personal and collective realities.
With Mercury in Aquarius close to the Moon, our mental clarity is focused on innovative concepts and solutions. Conversations carry weight, as forward-thinking Mercury thrives on intelligence and originality, making brainstorming, collaboration, and visionary planning fertile ground for extraordinary breakthroughs.
With Pluto intertwined with Mercury, the transformative potential of this New Moon deepens, compelling us to look beneath the surface and examine our inner dialogue, recognizing the power of our thoughts in shaping our reality. Pluto's compelling influence on this Aquarian Moon requires us to confront the shadows within societal structures and ourselves with radical honesty. This requires releasing outdated ideas, beliefs, and fears that hold us back, allowing us to rebuild our lives with authenticity and purpose.
Jupiter retrograde in Gemini supports this New Moon, infusing it with optimism, curiosity, and reflection on our desire for change and growth. With increased information flow, Jupiter in Gemini expands our open-mindedness to possible connections between diverse ideas. Meanwhile, Mars retrograde in Cancer calls us to reflect on our emotional desires and inhibiting fears. It's best to consider and compare options, allow for adjustments, and, if possible, wait to set plans in motion until February 23, 2025, when both Jupiter and Mars will be stationed direct.
This New Moon calls us to explore themes of community and the pursuit of ideals that challenge old paradigms and spark meaningful change. What new visions are ready to take root? How can you align your goals with a greater purpose while remaining true to yourself? This is a time to boldly reinvent ourselves and revitalize our lives—to dream big and think expansively. Work with this New Moon with compassion and integrity, trusting that the insights and ideas emerging now are guiding us toward profound growth and transformation for all people and our planet.
During this time of global upheaval and unrest, this New Moon in Aquarius, under Pluto's persuasive influence, offers a powerful emotional reset and a humanitarian calling. It asks us to compassionately honor our individuality and personal perspective while considering how we connect to the world around us, recognizing that we are all here to be a meaningful part of the collective in our own unique ways.
This New Moon in Aquarius occurs on Wednesday, January 29th, 2025 at 7:35 AM, EST.
