Tuesday, FEBRUARY 1

The New Moon occurs early today–at 12:46 AM EST–in the sign of Aquarius. It motivates or prompts us to start fresh with a friendship, group activities, social pursuits, group projects, happiness pursuits, trying something new, or humanitarian efforts. We’re looking to the future with a new vision, and we’re doing more brainstorming and socializing. It’s an excellent time to see the value of developing more objectivity and a bit of detachment.

This New Moon aligns with Saturn, suggesting a somber and resolute determination to start fresh, although perhaps some reticence or a strong sense that we’ll have more responsibilities with our new beginnings. With its square to Uranus, some unexpected or rebellious elements are likely.

Consider that we might not yet have all the information we need to push ahead with Mercury retrograde until the night of the 3rd. However, it can be easier to distance ourselves from habits that may be holding us back.

The void Moon occurs from 6:01 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Saturn), until the Moon enters Pisces tomorrow, Wednesday, February 2nd, at 6:00 AM EST.
