At 10:58 p.m. on Feb. 9, a new moon in Aquarius occurs, which is very important because of the unusual planetary alignment that is going to accentuate, and by a lot, the Aquarian energies that have come back into prominence since Pluto entered the sign on Jan. 21st.
It is the second new moon after the winter solstice, and so it is also the Chinese New Year on Feb. 10th. A new year officially begins for the Chinese horoscope, the year of the green dragon begins, a symbol of prosperity, abundance and well-being so, for Chinese astrology, the one beginning on February 10 is a year of great prosperity and growth.
Each new moon represents a new beginning, a door opening that will show its first effects 14 days later with the full moon. This time the Full Moon will be in Virgo next February 24 and, on a more organized, structured, mature level, will show its effects with the corresponding Full Moon in Aquarius next August 19th.
A peculiar sky this New Moon, the likes of which we have never seen, in which Venus Mars Pluto Mercury Sun Moon and Saturn from Capricorn to Pisces at this time are basically aligned.
Pluto affects the collective and speaks to us about the power of transformation so we will see in Aquarius what are those things that need to be renewed just at the level of systems at the level of hierarchy and broader relationships.
Sun and Moon in the sign of Aquarius are indices of nonconformity and rebellion, rebellion for a just cause.
Aquarius is an air sign and therefore a mental one, made up of ideals, ruled by Uranus, which is the planet of change and the planet of innovation, and is the sign that most expresses the ability to think outside the box, to look at things from a perspective that is different from others and to reinvent certain dynamics. The time has come to dust off our habits and dare something new.
Uranus, at the moment we find it in Taurus, so in quadrature with the Moon. And so Uranus speaks of sudden shocks, quick changes, innovations and even new technologies, sharply contrasted with a Moon that, like any moon, speaks to us about emotionality and how we feel, our desire for freedom and independence, to feel truly free.
This Moon heralds a period of boldness, liberation and transformation. We will have to dare and change!
With Uranus in quadrature to Pluto and Sun and Moon, in this New Moon and the following New Moon, something might happen suddenly, some shock, something that might destabilize us.
With Mercury conjunct the others in Aquarius and squaring Uranus, however, expect that suddenly some unspoken truths will come to the surface, unexpectedly, something sudden and something unexpected that we did not expect to receive. Mercury's conjunction with Pluto can bring to light secret things that remain hidden in darkness.
It is this challenging and daring moon in which the most affected signs are Aquarius, Leo, Gemini, Aries, Sagittarius, Taurus and Scorpio.

It points us to a new beginning that invites us to try alternative ways, stands for renewal and encourages us to move forward, to get out of our comfort zone and take the initiative, to take charge of all kinds of situations and open the doors we have closed to ourselves for too long while the world was waiting for us! The tension caused by the quadratures in this New Moon in Aquarius is an opportunity to free ourselves from what is blocking us. Whether it is a relationship, a job or a habit that strains and oppresses us, this is the time to break free and leave behind what no longer serves us.
The relationship with emotions can be complicated. There will also be a tendency to get rid of emotions, negative ones such as fear, anger and jealousy.
We pay attention to the moods, the feelings of the New Moon and anything that it somehow suggests to us, such as taking a new path, which attracts us or moving away from an old one--a moon that might push us into anger, sending us into a rage.
This New Moon broadens our vision, stimulating our spiritual openness and receptivity to others. It encourages us to focus our attention on our relationships as a whole, including our social network and circle of friends. It often makes us more flexible and sociable. At the same time, it awakens our inventive spirit, guiding us toward the discovery of original ideas and new concepts.
This New Moon in Aquarius is an invitation to change, to open up to others and unleash one's creative potential. Aquarius is a sociable sign; this New Moon represents an opportunity to strengthen ties with those around us. Whether it is family, friendships or colleagues we should take the time to better cultivate our relationships.
The New Moon in Aquarius also is an ideal time to unleash our imagination and let our creativity guide us.
This is a time of transformation.
After this February nothing will ever be the same again!
A new moon then, a new beginning, a new now in which we feel this extreme need to create our freedom, to have a more and more solid and more and more freedom.
From a more psychological point of view this new moon in Aquarius represents a great individual momentum toward our freedom and also the realization of our ideals in fact it is a rather strong-willed chart and time for action we might say no so we might feel this momentum this impulse to do to avoid procrastination and finally to follow these new impulses and this is confirmed by the conjunction of Mars with Pluto in Aquarius a Mars that at the moment is still in Capricorn. The moon's quadrature with Uranus in Taurus also brings the possibility of breaking with patterns of the past or habits we want to get rid of.
This new moon in Aquarius, the sign of rebellion, independence, autonomy of thought, the ability to think against the grain and make new plans by always embracing new initiatives is truly the indicator of a year that will truly change scenarios.
