The Days of Aquarius
Today's new moon in humanitarian Aquarius, alongside Pluto's dark journey through the same sign and a boost of luck on the side from Jupiter, offers big energy for reclaiming your power!
Oh Aquarius. You vibe so friendly and fun, yet you’re serious and smart. You’re fiercely independent while also deeply humanitarian. You show up in the world big and in your own way and you do it to make the world a better place.
This is the energy around today’s new moon. New moons are great times to plant new seeds, set intentions for changes you want to make in your life, or get serious about doing that thing you’ve been wanting to do. This new moon in Aquarius is just lovely for manifesting how you want to show up in and for your community. And in the midst of so much chaos and uncertainty, your community needs you to show up at your most powerful.
Alongside this new moon, Pluto is also in Aquarius, bringing transformative energy to your new moon magic. Pluto is the lonely dark planet (and in some circles not even a planet!), taking its time through each sign of the zodiac, wreaking transformation wherever it sits for twenty years or more.
I’ve written about Pluto in Aquarius before, because it has the potential to be an amazing time for our world. It’s still pretty new here, still struggling through the past couple of years of backing in and out of Capricorn and Aquarius, and even in a sign of humanitarianism, innovation and technological advancements, the change Pluto brings can be chaotic and painful.
In all of this chaos and pain, systems are breaking. AND I SAY LET THEM BREAK! These systems we’re so desperately clinging to, they weren’t built for me or by me, and with barely a thought about me and people who look like me. We need new systems that are built by people who look like me and you and everyone else that makes up our communities.
Which is why it’s never been more important to manifest you at your most powerful, showing up for your community and ready to change the world. Whether we like it or not, the world is changing. And under the tech bros of the modern oligarchy, it’s fast and frightening and furious and full of falsehoods. We cannot get caught on the outrage train, spinning our wheels, shouting out into the echo chambers of our social media prisons and being shouted back to.
It’s time to imagine what our world could be. I like to imagine it in terms of the goodness Pluto in Aquarius offers us. Disruption of old systems. Technology that provides greater access to justice for more people. The rise of heart-centered leaders. Humanitarianism. Sustainable collaboration with the planet. Global collaboration of people. A collective awakening. This is what’s possible.
It’s time to start building new systems to replace what is being broken. So we’re ready when it all falls down. Use this Aquarian new moon magic to reclaim your power and help lead the way forward.
