NEW MOON in AQUARIUS Solar Eclipse: Feb 15, 2018 at 4:05pm @ 27 degrees
LUNAR MUSING
This Aquarius New Moon Eclipse is propelling us forward toward our destiny and clearing the path to our hopes, dreams, and wishes.
Aquarius is an air sign, and therefore, highly intellectual. When balanced this intellectual function serves as a powerful tool for the purpose of fulfilling our highest spiritual evolution. Through heeding the spiritual call of our soul we naturally align with and support the collective evolution.
In the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali it states that “The intellect exists for the sake of Purusha (or spirit)…” Through Purusha, we receive pure intuitive transmissions via the intellect similar to that described by many great thinkers and artists, including Albert Einstein and Leonardo da Vinci.
Aquarius is also known for its heightened intuition and unique brilliance. Although it is symbolically the water bearer, the eternal giver of life, it also represents Vayu, or wind, including storms. Storms arise to clear the air bringing a freshness to our inner and outer environment. Vayu is breath and the life-force moving through each of us. So, we utilize our breath to transmute negativity, transforming patterns of thinking that will elevate emotional wisdom and intuitive perception.
I encourage you to pay attention to your breath and notice how the life-force (prana) is moving through you, taking note of any epiphanies or flashes of insight you receive over the next few days/weeks. Surely they hold information and keys that are shaping and informing what’s ahead. Remember eclipses are activators (and Aquarius has an electric effect); whatsoever is being activated in you most certainly wants attention.
Uranus, the great awakener, is in the sign of Aries and is both the ruler of this lunation and in a sextile to the Moon/Sun carrying with it a charge of revolution both inwardly and outwardly. And with this moon conjunct Mercury, we are revolutionizing the power of our thoughts and words.
This eclipse lands on the same degree as the total lunar eclipse in August of last year in the opposite sign Leo, triggering events from that cycle. This is a pivotal point for change and with the south node involved, something from that past is ready for release that we might begin anew.
What we choose today, shifts the paradigm of tomorrow and Aquarius wants nothing more than to break out of old conditioning. Now is the time to change. And so we look within to see all that we resist and come to know the resistance we feel externally. Remember: you are the light of the universe peering into itself and you are the universe reflecting back into the world. What change do you truly want to make? And, what’s holding you back from taking that leap of faith?
