I’m no expert in astrology but even my favourite masters consider today’s auspicious New Moon in Aquarius one of the most powerful lunations of 2021. It’s a day for ritualising intentions for a cycle that is likely to bear rich fruit, with some enormously supportive planetary influences assisting this growth over the next 18 months.
Not only is this New Moon occurring in the midst of a massive alignment of planets in Aquarius - the first time since 1962 that so many have gathered together there at once - initiating a supercharged cycle of forward thinking energy, it’s also amplified by the magnificent influence of a conjunction between Jupiter and Venus - the two luckiest planets - who are exact when the New Moon forms at 6:06am AEDT. Pretty epic. This lunation also begins the New Chinese Lunar Year of the Ox - 恭喜发财 🌞🌑🐂 and interestingly, its slow, disciplined, dependable hard work that promises eventual prosperity, is also reflected (in my thinking) in the strong Saturnian and Taurean influences of 2021.
The lead up this week has been charged with both tensions and grace. Mercury retrograded into the heart of the Sun and the Aquarian planets continued their square to Uranus, Mars and Black Moon Lilith in Taurus. But now Mercury emerges as the Morning Star with more vitality and vigour and continues into a conjunction with Venus on Saturday Feb 13 and with Jupiter on Valentine’s Day. He stops, auspiciously, before running into Saturn, still the most powerful planet in our skies, and the one to whom all planets with the exception of Neptune currently answer. Mercury will eventually cross back over Jupiter and Venus again in forward motion, further stimulating the growth of whatever we choose to plant on this Moon.
So plant courageous seeds of intention today beautiful friends with faith in the possibilities unfolding.
