With this Aquarius New Moon 2025, there is concern for humanity’s journey. We may reflect more on our fellow human beings & truly want to help, and so we work to assist those in our immediate environment because we can.
Aquarius New Moon

The New Moon on January 29, 2025, which is 9° Aquarius, marks the beginning of a Lunar Cycle.  Each New Moon occurs 29 ½ days apart and marks a time of new beginnings, fresh starts, change, and planting new seeds in the garden of life.  Sometimes we may not be too sure about where we are heading and so we set goals and turn inward for some answers.  All New Moons and Full Moons evolve much around emotional interaction although the sign that they are in and the aspects they receive from other transiting planets at the current time also have an influence.

 

When the Moon is in Aquarius, the emotions may be more subdued than say if the New Moon were in Cancer or Pisces. As a result, this time may not be overly emotional in nature.  This does not mean that we are cold emotionally under this influence, only that we react more from an intellectual level than an emotional one. 

 

There is concern for humanity’s journey and the ways of the world. On some level, we may interact, even if only from within, with the thought processing.  We may reflect more on our fellow human beings and truly want to help, and so we may try to assist those in need.

 

On a personal level, this is often a time of change and setting goals for the future. There is a great deal of contemplation taking hold in our lives under this influence.  The mood is generally hopeful especially since transiting Jupiter at 11° in the sign of Gemini is making a trine to this positioning of the New Moon.  This can lead to a furthering of our ideas and making plans that should tie into the Full Moon six months from now also in the sign of Aquarius.

 

We can clarify our goals during the energies of this New Moon (which is often during the first month of the new moon) and we may turn inwards for the answers or guidance that we seek.  This can be quite private as we pause and reflect on where we might like to utilize this energy.

 

The houses that are involved (New Moon’s position in the natal chart) and aspects with transiting Jupiter and any links we have within a three-degree orb of influence within our natal chart will help define the areas of life involved in the process.  An experienced astrologer can aid in uncovering what this might mean for you personally.

 

Much of the influence during this timeframe (the end of January 2025) has connections with Venus, Neptune and the North Node all of which are in the sign of Pisces rendering in emotion and sensitivity as well as, in some cases, psychic intervention. Saturn is also in Pisces (although not connected to the previous planets and North Node) and does initiate stability in the process. 

 

We also have transiting Mercury and Pluto making a tight conjunction in the very early stages of Aquarius suggesting transformational interaction creating change connected to human consciousness and its evolution.  Pisces’ and Aquarius’ energies are linked to human consciousness. Hopefully we see a much-needed change for mankind as we move into the realm of Pluto in Aquarius, Neptune in Aries and down the road Uranus in Gemini.  These are all powerful energies linked towards change and evolution.

 

With this Aquarius New Moon 2025, there is concern for humanity’s journey. We may reflect more on our fellow human beings & truly want to help, and so we work to assist those in our immediate environment because we can.

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.
October Solar Eclipse

On October 2, 2024, we will be experiencing a Solar Eclipse in the sign of Libra at 10°. 

 

If you have natal planets either conjunct, opposition or square to this position, primarily the Conjunction and Opposition, you will be affected by these energies, and possibly in a powerful manner depending on other transits in place at the time when this eclipse is in effect.  You can allow a 3° orb of influence, so planets between 7° and 13° of this placement in the appropriate signs will be influenced.  All major aspects will have some effect on this placement. 

 

A few months leading up to this timing will begin to show what has potential to manifest.  This influence can be strong for about one year, but last as long in years as the eclipse lasts in hours.  According to www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2024-october-2 the first location to see the partial eclipse begins at approximately 11:43 a.m EDT and the last place to see the partial eclipse ends at approximately 5:47 EDT.

 

Since this eclipse is in the sign of Libra (you always must take into consideration the sign and the house placement of any eclipse), the main influence will have to do with relationships.  This may include your spouse or significant other, close friends or business associates.  It involves fairness, justice, balancing, harmonious yearnings and perhaps making things right. 

 

It often encompasses new beginnings or endings and opportunities for significant change.  There is often an important shift where we must let go of what was or the past and move ahead possibly in a new direction.  Important life events are often tied to when Eclipses’ energies take hold, and again the house position will define what area of life may be involved.  Transformation and change are key characteristics of eclipses.  Sometimes it can bring unexpected change when we least anticipate it, but this change is often just what is needed in the long haul.

 

Transiting Mercury is closely tied to the conjunction of the Sun and Moon during this eclipse, and this suggests that the mind is closely tied to what takes place.  You may have been thinking about things for some time and now is the time for action or when action takes place.  Sometimes destiny seems to prevail and much of what takes place is beyond our control.  Things change because they need to.  Intensions play a big part in what unfolds, and goals also come into play.

 

Along with Transiting Mercury, we also have a Grand Water Trine with Venus (love and affection), Mars (sexual energy and drive) and Saturn (a steadying effect which can solidify things and bring stability).  The Grand Water Trine suggests emotional connections have the potential of working well and moving along nicely.  You are self-sufficient at handling any events that may unfold, and you do not depend on others to do the work necessary or to move you in the intended direction.  The emotions may be kept under wraps at this time as you know you can handle anything that may surface, and things flow without obstruction.

 

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.

  • Jul 31, 2024

On August 4, 2024, we will be experiencing the energies of a New Moon in the sign of Leo at 12°.  This is a time to plant seeds in your garden of life related to the energies of Leo.


Whatever goals you are setting around the 2024 Leo New Moon beware of being over optimistic but pursue your goals anyway (with ego in check) because opportunity is at hand.
2024 Leo New Moon

The Moon being placed in Leo brings out warmth and generosity and will enhance one’s image.  There is always a degree of resilience and know-how when it comes the energies of Leo.  You may feel as though you want to be in control of situations, especially a new one as this is what might be on the horizon at this time.  As mentioned, the New Moon cycle is often the beginning stages, when we can puts into action things that we have been planning or laying the foundation for what is yet to come.  This is the time to start action/planning and move ahead with exuberance and enthusiasm.

 

The 2024 Leo New Moon will also be making a sextile to Jupiter which will be at 14° in the sign of Gemini.  The Moon and Jupiter are forming a positive aspect (sextile) which can bring forth opportunities and a general feeling that things will be alright.

 

Check to see which house this Lunar position is activating in your natal chart and if it touches another planet in the birth chart.  The house position will give you indications of what areas of life might be involved.  Transiting Jupiter’s position by house and sign will give you more info due to its sextile to the moon. 

 

If this New Moon affects your chart, you may push forward with great optimism and bravery, daring to move forward with your objectives.  You may feel bold in your actions and would love it if others would also notice and be proud of you for what you are planning on doing.  The more people behind you, the better.  You will also feel quite generous at this time, and those that want to join in may find that down the road if all works out well, they too will be happy about the outcome. Usually, the culmination point of a new moon is when the Full Moon is in the same sign, some six months from now (February 12, 2025). 

 

Watch for being overly optimistic about reaching your goals but pursue them anyway.  With Jupiter being part of the process moving forward, you can expect bigger and, in many cases, more rewarding outcomes as you move ahead.  If you like what you see along the way, watch for too much self-acknowledgement as the ego in this alignment can be quite significant. You don’t want others to get the wrong impression.  You may feel the need to blow your own horn prior to the actual achievement, and the results may appear to be more successful to you than what they actually are.  Exaggeration is often part of the picture, but optimism and continued efforts are what makes things happen.

 

This New Moon’s position at 12° Leo should be within 3° in conjunction with or in opposition to a planet in your natal chart for it to have a more pronounced effect in your life.  The natal potential must always be present.

 

Whatever goals you are setting around the 2024 Leo New Moon beware of being over optimistic but pursue your goals anyway (with ego in check) because opportunity is at hand.
