Monday, FEBRUARY 4

The New Moon occurs in the sign of Aquarius today at 4:04 PM EST, marking the beginning of a new cycle. Friendship, brotherhood, group activities, social pursuits, group projects, trying something new, humanitarian efforts, or joining a group can come into sharp focus. New beginnings regarding any of these matters are possible now. With this potent Aquarius energy, we have the chance to make exciting, progressive changes in our lives. For some of us, circumstances are such that we need to pay more attention to these matters. We have the opportunity to come up with very workable ideas that are also innovative. This New Moon’s alignment with Mercury and sextile to Jupiter leaves us feeling especially hopeful and inspires positive thinking and idealism. We’re looking to our future with confidence. We’re primarily concerned with progress and freedom now.

The Moon is in Aquarius all day, and we are gracious, willing to give situations and people the benefit of the doubt as the Moon forms a sextile to Jupiter. A Sun-Saturn semi-sextile influence this morning does have a somewhat weighty effect, as we can find it a little difficult to fully enjoy ourselves without feeling we may be neglecting a responsibility.
