Today, February 9, we welcome the Year of the Dragon with the arrival of the Aquarius New Moon, which marks the beginning of the lunar new year.
Lucky charms abound in the Year of the Dragon according to Chinese astrology. Problems may arise throughout the Year of the Dragon, but they can also serve as catalysts for growth in self-assurance, direction, and achievement.
Now is an excellent time to take stock of your feelings, since this is the first Lunar New Moon of the year. How have our emotions changed as we’ve traveled through the zodiac’s many emotional states? The Moon is astrology’s symbol for our feelings. How has our self-awareness progressed to a more profound stage?
Feeling safe and secure is essential to thriving in this world, and the Moon is a symbol of that. One way to gauge the magnitude of one’s life is to consider the physical locations of the places where one feels safe and at ease.
We are more inclined to spread our wings, take risks, and live life to the fullest when we feel confident, secure, and safe. We are more prone to play it safe if we lack confidence, security, or assurance.
Sit with whatever arises as you meditate on this dynamic in your own life, drawing on the energies of the Lunar New Year. At the New Moon, you might feel motivated to make some changes.
Pluto Boosts the Aquarian New Moon’s Power
With Pluto stationed at the highly karmic 0-degree point of Aquarius, the energy surrounding this New Moon is strongly Aquarian. Because Pluto is a planet of power, its presence intensifies Aquarian traits and brings us further into the Pluto in Aquarius cycle, which will last for the next 20 years.
When the Aquarian New Moon is powerful, it suggests a drive for independence, creativity, and new approaches. When it comes to Aquarian energy, it wants to do its own thing and break all the rules.
On the other hand, Aquarian energy can occasionally come across as more severe and sudden. On occasion, its sharpness can reopen old wounds, particularly those associated with shame and worthlessness.
The planet of uncertainty and upheaval, Uranus, which rules Aquarius, is also in motion during this New Moon. Suddenly, something might change, forcing us to be flexible or rethink our original plans.
On the flip side, we could be motivated to make changes that lead to more independence or creativity.
Remembering to flow with the flow is always worthwhile whenever there is strong Uranian energy. One of the benefits of Uranian energy is exactly that. It suggests letting go of our grip on the process, embracing flow, and having faith in it. We can level up when things change, so it wants us to embrace change.
Waves of Healing Energy
Although this New Moon’s erratic energy might leave us feeling disoriented, there is another force at work as well.
Chiron and the North Node are moving inexorably toward one another, which is causing this dynamic. Just a few days after the New Moon, on February 11, Chiron and the North Node will formally conjoin, but their energy will be extremely dynamic until then.
The union of Chiron with the North Node portends profound restoration. On a personal and global scale, it promotes healing at the most fundamental levels. Through connecting with this healing energy, we can learn from our wounds and share what we’ve learned with others. Everyone wins when we accept and heal from our own wounds in this manner.
With Aquarius being the sign of the healer, this complex energy dynamic will only grow stronger during this New Moon.
The archetype of Aquarius, the water bearer, possesses the unique ability to collect water—a metaphor for the world’s emotions and psychic debris—into a vessel, purify it, and then release it back into the earth.
Combined with the energies of Chiron and the North Node, this gift of transformation will be amplified during the February New Moon, creating an opportunity for a world that is both better and more peaceful.
New Moon, New Intentions
At this month’s New Moon, you have the opportunity to make a positive change by committing to a path toward greater harmony and health for all people. Utilize the energy of this New Moon to send healing vibes to anyone you know who is going through tough times. This New Moon is a powerful time to send healing and peace to any humanitarian cause you’re deeply committed to.
We can all do our part by establishing intentions and exuding love, harmony, and peace; this is a chance to raise the planet’s consciousness.
It’s not easy to maintain this distance all the time, but setting a deliberate intention under the New Moon can reap great rewards.
With the help of this New Moon, we can also usher in any changes we desire, particularly those that make way for greater independence and growth.
Blessed New Moon to you🌙
