New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aquarius Chart: February 6th, 2027

This eclipse is the third in a Leo-Aquarius set. Its effects can be felt for up to six months after the actual date of the eclipse. In the sign of Aquarius, this eclipse is about friendship, fellowship, group activities, social pursuits, group projects, trying something new, humanitarian efforts, or joining a group. This New Moon eclipse might challenge these matters and present opportunities for new beginnings. Long-term changes are in the works!

This phase of the Moon occurs at 17 degrees and 38 minutes of Aquarius.

A similar Solar Eclipse (at approximately the same degree of Aquarius) occurred on February 7th, 2008. Before that, similar degrees and signs happened in eclipses on  February 5th, 2000, and February 4th, 1981. An eclipse set along the Leo-Aquarius axis most recently occurred from 2016-2019. Before that, it was from 2008-2009.

This eclipse can highlight and challenge our issues surrounding our social connections, place in society, friendships, alliances, and innovative approaches. We might take steps toward improving in these areas by tackling things that undermine our goals or connections.

Circumstances nudge or encourage us to see where we haven’t been true to our authentic selves. Ultimately, we are now in a position to understand that changes or endings are necessary for our own growth, and that we can handle these things.

This is a time when we should solve problems that require thinking “outside of the box.” We look to the future with a new, positive, and hopeful vision, frequently brainstorm and socialize, and focus on extending a friendly hand, receiving support, and expressing platonic love for those around us. It’s a time to give our emotions and passions a “break,” as we develop more objectivity and some detachment from past haunts.

We might learn how something (or someone) works or revitalize ourselves through experiences that are new or simply different.

This cycle encourages us to reach out to people in our social circle and in our community, and recognize the value of our friendships and social networks. We might also recognize that some level of detachment and distancing ourselves from our habits and attachment to the past will help us break away from destructive behaviors that are holding us back.

With this potent Aquarius energy, we have the chance to make progressive changes in our lives. For some of us, circumstances are such that we need to pay more attention to these matters.

Aquarius teaches us that it can be all too easy to slip into feelings of being alone in the world (“it’s me against the world”) and to forget that there is support to be found, if only we reach out and find it. Similarly, there are solutions to our problems, if only we develop faith that answers are available to us, and we reach out to find those solutions. It is a time to consider, appreciate, and value our place in the community and in our social circle, and to give something back.

It’s a powerful time to re-evaluate our happiness goals and alliances.

This New Moon opposes Jupiter, and we should watch for overshooting or prematurely beginning something new. This eclipse also occurs close to a Mercury-Mars Rx opposition, suggesting impatience, and especially speaking before we’re ready to make a move, can be a problem.

Flaws in an important system in our lives reveal themselves around the time of the eclipse, prompting us to redo or to start fresh. Something ends in order for something else to start anew. We may be called to give up something in order to move forward into a new chapter in our lives. Although the “new” may be unrecognizable, it is important to allow the necessary surrender to the unknown.

An eclipse occurs close to the nodal axis, and this eclipse is closer to the North Node of the Moon. While we’re heading into unknown territory in some ways, we have a good sense that we’re doing so to our advantage.

Major developments in the personal areas ruled by Aquarius in our charts are likely to occur over the upcoming months.
