New Moon in Aquarius 2024

On February 9th at 2:59 PM PST the Sun and Moon align, creating a New Moon in Aquarius. As the Sun and Moon share the placement of 20 degrees Aquarius 41 minutes, we have some lessons set out for us to learn about humanity and our place in it.

Aquarius is a Fixed Air Sign. Fixed because it lands in the center of the Winter season, when its energy is strong and stable. The quality of Air brings new thoughts and epiphanies as Uranus rules Aquarius. Uranus is the planet of activation, sudden change, realizations, and freedom. Here we have the chance to rethink our existence, and the energy the planets and luminaries provide helps us to do just that.

Because this is a fixed sign, the issue can arise where we are stubborn, persevering in one direction that in prior years hasn’t worked. Thinking outside the box is necessary for change, and to include others in our goals, as this is a sign of friendships that work in harmony for the betterment of humanity. We must rely on opening our minds to something new in order to not feel the shock this planet could provide. Looking outside ourselves to what our world is experiencing touches our very soul and beckons us to join in in the revolution, creating the new Earth through love. It begins in our own heart.

The Sun and Moon are squared by Uranus at 19 degrees Taurus. The square inspires us to be impulsive, restless, and spontaneous, as your life is apt to be somewhat unstable and full of sudden changes now. You feel extremely independent and crave excitement, adventure, freedom, and discovery. You cannot tolerate a routine or lifestyle that offers little in the way of surprise or challenge. Emotional freedom is very important to you now. This is the New Moon’s goal, to free yourselves now.

The planets Mercury and Pluto are also in Aquarius now, giving us even more reason to think more broadly and to be ready to clear the decks and begin again. They are square Jupiter in Taurus, giving us an abundance of ideas, interests, and plans for the future, and you may find it difficult to focus on any particular area. You are not a specialist now, for you seek to get the broad overview, to see the whole picture rather than closely examining any of its component parts. Philosophy, religion, or other areas of theoretical speculation will interest you now, and this is where you can find answers to long lost questions. You can aim high, have great vision, and won’t be satisfied

with yourself unless you can achieve your goals in a big way. You can be very opportunistic and ready to capitalize on a good idea. You may utilize contacts with prominent and successful people to your advantage, and are likely to win yourself an important and lucrative position in life.

So with everything pointing to change, just what needs a fresh start in your life? Whether it’s relationships, career, where you live, how you spend your time, it’s clearly time to assess what brings you joy or where you feel stuck. These planets are encouraging us to align our energies with those who share the same values. We are stronger in numbers, and can support each other through our transformation. The Earth is ready to support those who love her, protect her and her inhabitants. The Earth is ready to reinforce the abundance she has for all of us, and with courage and wisdom we can access the power to receive it. The key to changing now is to open your heart and mind to new possibilities without fear. To look into progressing on the path to enlightenment. We are all here for a reason, and through the study of astrology with our own natal charts we can see who we are and why we came. I invite you to reach out and allow me to help you in understanding through your own “blueprint” what you hope to accomplish in this lifetime.

Full Moon in Leo 2024

On January 25th at 9:54 AM PST the Moon is Full in the sign of Leo. As with every Full Moon, we look in the past to see what we were hoping for when the Moon was New in that sign. This occurred August 16th of last year, 2023. Just what were you hoping for?

Leo is a Fixed Fire Sign; it occurs as the second month of the Summer season, making it “Fixed”. It means when the sign is solid, pure to its energy. Not coming or going, it indicates that it reflects the true energy of the sign. The Fire element is powerful, igniting our senses and will. The energy is strong, regal, with a sense of authority, usually well deserved. Or so they think. Leos are the heart of the zodiac, and can be very loving and generous. Leo‘s energy is very creative, ardent in love, full of drama and uninhibited behavior at its best. It can be over the top, when too bold and pushy. At its worst, Leo‘s energy can be fickle, selfish, and touchy. At its best, shining bright like the Sun in everything they do.

While it was the sign of the New Moon, wishes and hopes for all things Leo were available. It rules romance, creativity, strength and passion. It controls the 5th house of all of our charts, and shows us personally how we feel about ourselves in these areas of our lives. At this time of the year we are either generous or jealous of other’s success. We can be involved in our greatest creations and wish for recognition, or wounded due to lack of appreciation. So a typical wish during this New Moon is one that our ego puts forward. Look back and see what you were trying to accomplish. Has it come to fruition?

That is what we learn now, how did we do? Did we succeed, or do we need to look at the situation with a fresh take? Some might feel their will was blocked due to the state of the world at that time. The truth may be things on planet Earth are changing so rapidly that our efforts were from another time. A time prior when life wasn’t so challenging. It is important now to elevate our activities into a new format, one of seeing things as they are now versus the past.

And with this Full Moon we have planets setting us up. The first is a square to Jupiter at 6 degrees Taurus. You will have a lighthearted and cheerful disposition and reach out to others in a warm, open, friendly way. Your emotional generosity and lack ofpettiness will serve you well among your circle of friends, and people may seek you out for help, sympathy, or advice. You will be willing to overlook others' faults, and you may overdo your charitableness. Keep this in check at this time and make sure it isn’t manipulation.

There is opposition to Pluto at 0 degrees Aquarius. You’ll have intense desires and

feelings at this time, and your personal relationships can feel deeply emotional, passionate, and often stormy and painful as well. There are powerful magnetic ties between yourself and those you care about, and you could become emotionally obsessed with another person. Your feelings can become so urgent and compelling that you do things that are not rational. You may undergo emotional upheavals and purging, where you must break all ties, release the past and begin anew. This is the planet of transformation, so you won’t likely just sit idly by.

Look at your goals and don’t play the blame game. It is easier to hold others or situations responsible for your lack of success, but remember we are all here together on the playing field, and we need each other to win the game. Take your place in the line up, see clearly what your strengths and talents are, and don’t try to do it alone. We need each other to support our fondest wishes, a little give and take. Stubbornness is rampant with this sign, so consider becoming more open minded and hearted. Seek the recognition you deserve for a job well done, and put your best foot forward. We all are special in some way, and now is the time to celebrate that.

Always grateful to Judy for her guidance and wisdom! For a 1:1 session email and follow her accounts!!!!
