New Moon, New Year!

The New Moon in Aquarius arrived overnight, and it's time to make wishes and set intentions. (This being a reminder from your friendly neighborhood astrologer.)

My New Moon Aquarius wishes

With Aquarius, thinking outside the box is always good, so I created a digital collage to represent my hopes for this New Moon, leaving lots of space for the cosmos to fill in the blanks.

Writing, blogging, creative play, transformation, fluidity, inspiration, and the unexpected are all themes for me now. What are you calling into your life? Be bold!

The Moon will soon slip into imaginatively dreamy Pisces, joining the mystical party already in full swing: Neptune, Chiron, Mars and Mercury are already there.

The Pisces Moon will oppose my natal Moon in Virgo, and I'm here to tell you oppositions are not always bad. My Virgo Moon can feel a bit squashed and invisible––the Pisces Moon seems to bring me out of myself, take me on a tour of the outer stratosphere, and give me new images and thoughts to ponder. Add in the creative mojo of an Aquarian New Moon, and who knows what I might do today?

Now that we've moved into the waxing cycle, everything begins to expand and grow. Tonight and many nights to come will be rich ones for dreaming––look for healing dreams (Chiron), big dreams and creative dreams (Neptune, Aquarian New Moon, and lots of Pisces), and personal dreams (lots of personal planets moving through Pisces now). Have your dream notebook handy this week.

The Moon is void of course now, until she enters Pisces at 4:19pm EST. So if you haven't made those wishes yet, best wait until after 4:30. This evening through tomorrow morning will be great for setting intentions. Just after noon Monday, the Moon goes void again until she pops into fiery Aries just before 9:00 pm EST.

The best of this innovatively eccentric and long-sightedly humantarian New Moon to you!
