On\u00a0Feb. 11th at 2:06pm EST,<\/strong>\u00a0a powerful New Moon in 23 degrees of\u00a0Aquarius<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0becomes exact;\u00a0this is the beginning of a new Moon cycle.\u00a0\u00a0I also recommend you watch my video on the subject.<\/a><\/p>\nThis New Moon is unique in that there is a Stellium of planets in Aquarius<\/strong><\/em> — six planets total, to be exact. This highlights anything connected to group experiences — whether large or small, online or in-person, business or personal, spiritual or health-oriented, etc.<\/p>\n This Lunar cycle invites us to go out there and connect (or re-connect) with “our people”. A tribe that resonates, a cause that feels aligned with our principles or belief systems, a connection that serves a larger vision for the future, etc.<\/strong><\/p>\n The highest and lightest vibration of Aquarius<\/strong><\/em> gives us the opportunity to see a clear vision for our life — and we are ready to make the relevant improvements.<\/p>\n Aquarius<\/strong>\u00a0also deals with the power of ideals, technology, and inventions. We are now more interested\u00a0than ever\u00a0in the collective focus on changing group consciousness.<\/p>\n This is an opportunity for all of us to become more aware of our individual impact on the collective: We are all agents of change. Already. Always. That’s why we chose to be here at this time.<\/p>\n At its best,<\/em>\u00a0Aquarius<\/strong>\u00a0stands for equality and diversity, innovation and reform, collaboration and community — we strive for progress.\u00a0The challenge here is to unite and transcend differences of gender, race, and cultural or religious backgrounds, rather than separating from others, or ostracizing those who are different from us.<\/p>\n To move even further into that higher, lighter\u00a0Aquarian<\/strong>\u00a0vibration<\/em>,\u00a0ask yourself\u00a0the following questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n ***<\/p>\n ALREADY A MEMBER?

Get the whole Forecast with all the New Moon questions — as well as other awesome and exclusive content — become a site member<\/a> (still, for the price of a cappuccino!) \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n *** To move even further into that higher, lighter\u00a0Aquarian<\/strong>\u00a0vibration<\/em>,\u00a0ask yourself\u00a0the following questions:<\/strong> Where am I called to make a difference? What could I, as an individual, do for humanity or a particular group of people? And how might “group consciousness” help us make progress? Where might I begin?<\/p>\n With so many planets in Aquarius<\/strong>, we may also experience some of the denser vibrations of this sign<\/em> — we may either feel like outsiders, or get too invested in being like everyone else. We may also overemphasize thought forms or concepts and disconnect from the heart.<\/p>\n If we feel like outsiders<\/strong> — as though we don’t fit in and are maybe a little\u00a0too\u00a0different — we may want to rebel against social structures that don’t fit with our vision. We resist change, or conversely want to speed it up — and either could potentially be destructive.<\/p>\n If we feel like we need to conform with others<\/strong> (a group, affiliation, friends, family), we may give up our own unique spark or quirks, just to fit in and be part of something larger that makes us feel like we belong. We go along with thought-forms or concepts that may not even make sense to us and don’t question them for the greater good of the group (or to avoid being rejected, ridiculed, or ostracized).<\/p>\n We get trapped in this denser vibration when we do not take responsibility for our part in the collective<\/strong> — when we do not honor our individual genius, our unique contribution to society, or to our communities.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong>\u00a0What if I allowed myself to be both different\u00a0and\u00a0connected to others? What if taking responsibility for my thoughts and the vision that I am manifesting in “every moment of now” was the perfect jump-start for that better future?<\/p>\n What lies between me and my divine genius? What stops me from being me when I am with my “tribe”? What small daily steps would bring my vision for myself and humanity closer every\u00a0day?<\/p>\n Every single one of us has a special gift, a spark unique to us; when we access our divine genius and share it with the world, we can make quantum leaps of insight and embark on remarkable collaborations with others.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong>\u00a0How does my divine genius make itself known? Where does it show up? What if my “different” was exactly what the world needed right now to evolve?\u00a0Could I be fully myself (Heart and Soul) and give others permission to do the same? What if diversity not only supported our evolution…\u00a0but was what kept us alive?<\/p>\n Imagine a world where everyone was a clone of yourself. Same features, personality, preferences, style, ideas, beliefs… same everything! How long could a world like that exist? How long before the human spirit perished?<\/p>\n Mercury is Retrograde <\/em>at the time of the New Moon and makes a wide alignment with the Sun and Moon in\u00a0Aquarius <\/strong><\/em>and a closer alignment with Venus & Jupiter in that sign.<\/em>\u00a0This invites us to go within and connect with groups and causes that are in alignment with our inner understanding of things.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong> How can I connect my inner experience with my outer? Which member of my tribe have I not spoken to in a while? Who is (or has been) in alignment with my dreams for a better future? What would it look like if I reached out to those people, groups, communities, or affiliations?<\/p>\n Mental and conceptual abilities are strong for the next four weeks.<\/strong> We may feel particularly cool, calm, and collected — or even detached. Do your best to notice any tendency towards arrogance or rigidity of thought; choose to focus on objectivity and\u00a0a larger vision whenever possible.<\/p>\n Ask yourself<\/strong>: What if my thoughts were like a radio station that others could tune into at any time? What would I choose to broadcast?\u00a0What if I consciously chose to transmit a vision\u00a0for a world in which I wished to live? What if I sent out that transmission for just 5 minutes each day?<\/p>\n If you think you are alone,<\/strong> or are the only one who… (fill in the blank). Think again! There are around 7 Billion people on this planet — you are not alone! No matter what your vision, quirks, divine genius, no matter what you are broadcasting, there are others out there who are tuned to that same frequency.<\/strong><\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong>\u00a0How could I inspire others to foster progress? What might become possible if a group of us came together to create meaningful change for everyone — perhaps even for all living things?<\/p>\n Could I give other people the space they need if they don’t see things the same way I do? What if I focused on my own vision rather than making others wrong for theirs?<\/p>\n The New Moon and Mercury in Aquarius<\/strong> also Square Mars in Taurus<\/strong>.<\/em> This asks us to question our group affiliations and explore alternatives. We may also want to break free from outdated value systems.<\/p>\n With Mars involved, we may experience\u00a0a strong urge to act out desires for financial independence and for honoring our physical realities — maybe getting attached to what we are used to having or what we feel comfortable with \u2014 we may have a tendency to get a bit stubborn and we could also take things personally.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong> How could I honor my own values, and allow others theirs, honoring their choices or preferences? What if taking things personally was not in my best interest? What if simply “holding space” for myself and others would give me the freedom I desire within my communities? What if it also allowed me to honor myself on a physical level (whether that was financially, or involved whatever my body needs to feel happy)?<\/p>\n Uranus<\/em> (the modern ruler of Aquarius) currently in\u00a0Taurus<\/strong>, squares Saturn <\/em>(the traditional ruler of Aquarius), currently in Aquarius<\/strong>.<\/em>\u00a0This tells us that if we redefine our need to fit in and belong, we can find a more authentic connection with our own values; we are also invited to stay detached in our social dealing with others — honoring our own individuality without making anyone else wrong for being different or “themselves”.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong>\u00a0Are other people’s choices and preferences really about me (in other\u00a0words, do I need to take them personally)? Could I give the “choosing” of other people the space that it needs, so I can honor what’s important to me, without taking things personally?<\/p>\n What might become possible if I expressed myself fully, knowing that others may have a different opinion to me, and that’s ok? How might that impact my current communities (whether physical or online)?<\/p>\n While in Taurus<\/strong>, Uranus prods us to get back to the basics — to what really matters, what is sustainable (for the whole planet), and what is best for all living beings.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong> Where am I feeling a tension or a need for more spaciousness? Where do I need to “think out of the box”? Could I give myself permission to hold some space for things to reorganize themselves? Could I allow for this to happen slowly, without needing to rush into anything? Without pushing others or myself?<\/p>\n Keep in mind that things sometimes need to break down in order for them to be reorganized in a more sustainable way. Individually,<\/strong> this can be related to the area of life in your birth chart that Saturn <\/em>and Uranus<\/em> are currently transiting through; collectively,<\/strong> it can show up in sudden shifts and changes in our social or financial structures (or in physical shifts in the Earth’s structure).<\/p>\n \u201dThe Unexpected” is certainly going to be on top of the menu this year.<\/strong><\/p>\n If you would like to learn how<\/strong> the Saturn\/Uranus Squares<\/em> in Aquarius\/Taurus <\/strong>will impact you personally throughout 2021<\/strong>, feel free to join us on Feb. 26th<\/strong> for the next Forecasting Forum.\u00a0To register for this webinar,<\/a> click here<\/a> <\/strong>(Star Members are automatically registered). To sum it all up:<\/strong>\u00a0we are ready to change the status quo, both in our own individual lives, and also collectively — and this could come with challenges and some breakdowns, plus some nervous energy and impatience — so definitely bring as much objectivity to your interactions as possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n We also may experience sudden spurts of energy moving through our bodies, so we need to ground ourselves regularly, or channel these “disruptive” energies in a healthy way. Exercise would be a good channel, as would healthy debates, brainstorming about reforms or finances, etc. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Since we experience a need to connect with like-minded people<\/strong> while remaining objective, but also want to break free from outdated value systems<\/strong>, we may have to directly address what we value — both in others, and in ourselves.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong>\u00a0What outdated values am I ready to release? Where do I take other people’s values personally? What if agreeing with other people’s values was overrated? What if respectful disagreement was valuable to everyone involved?<\/p>\n What if diversity was the greatest gift we could give to each other at this time? What if time really was what “heals all” — and brings wholeness to all? If that were so, might this call for patience on my part?<\/p>\n As best as you can, remember why you are here at this momentous time of change on this planet. \u201cThink Different\u201d <\/strong>and come together.<\/strong> Help birth a new world, one day at a time.<\/strong><\/p>\n Whenever we meditate, pray, bless, or hold loving thoughts, either by ourselves or with others, we add to that vision of a new world. Do not give up, ever! Keep that vision alive for as long as it takes. We will get there eventually. Finally, let\u2019s talk \u201cNew Moon Intentions\u201d<\/strong> \ud83d\ude42 The New Moon is the best time to set some powerful intentions for this month’s Moon cycle; this is best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact, and definitely not during a Moon void of course<\/a> phase.<\/p>\n That means that this month<\/strong>, the best and most potent time to set intentions<\/em> would be any time between 2:23am on Feb. 12th,<\/strong> and 2:06pm on Feb. 13th<\/strong> – (New York Time\/US Eastern Time)<\/p>\n If you live in a timezone other than EST<\/strong> (US East Coast-time), and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook Fan-page<\/a> and\/or following me on Twitter,<\/a> as I post reminders when it’s time to set your intentions \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
