Happy Lunar New Year - Be The Change!

Happy Lunar New Year!

​The new moon in Aquarius marks the start of the Lunar Year Year in many Asian traditions. In the Chinese zodiac this is the Year of the Monkey. It is one of the biggest holidays of the year for many people around the world!

The new moon in Aquarius is a good time to ask yourself what you can do to create a more harmonious life for not only yourself but for the larger community. Aquarius is known for being the humanitarian of the zodiac and this is the chance for you to ask what your own humanitarian mission will be. I am a firm believer that we must “Be the chance we wish to see in the world” as Gandhi so famously said. With that idea how can you embody the change you wish to see in your own life?

New moons are powerful and often overlooked, people tend to pay more attention to the full moon. But the new moon is when the sun and moon are joined in one spot, giving the power of the luminaries to that area of your chart. An infusion of energy, or a spotlight on that area of your life. Looking to see where this falls in your own chart is a powerful way to harness this energy and use it to further your own personal development. The new moon occurs at 19 degrees 16 minutes of Aquarius. The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “A Large White Dove Bearing a Message”. This image does represent peace, with the dove, but it also brings news, as the message. What message do you bear? Where do you find peace? How do you communicate your peaceful intentions to the world? These are just some of the questions to consider under this new moon.
