On Wednesday, January 29, we welcome the New Moon in the fixed air sign of Aquarius, the Water Bearer and Truth Teller. Aquarius is also known as the outsider, the outlier, and the odd one out. The energy is trendsetting and frontrunning, forcing us to look at things in a fresh manner.
The symbolism of this lunation calls for shrewd self-honesty and a necessary detachment. It is about differentiating the reality of a person’s character from an ideal that we have put upon them. More than anything else, it requires courage to admit the truth.
We are getting clarity on the people in our life, personal and public. Are these individuals a part of your emerging tribe, or are they remnants of an old idea? Are we willing to break away from the pack in order to honor our own needs and nature?
Uranus, the ruler of this Aquarian New Moon, turns direct, which helps us pull out of the collective sludge of stuckness, giving us new vision and oomph to get moving.
It’s a potent time, with many gifts on the horizon; but these evolutionary offerings are not for the faint of heart. They require deep listening and “the courage to know one is already free and to act on it.” Therein lies your authentic genius. So take a few moments to drop in and receive.
