This month is a humdinger of a Full Moon, taking place on the 14th March. Not only is it the first Lunar Eclipse of 2025 (eclipses supersize the Full Moon’s luminary powers and add unpredictable events and insights to the equation), but it’s also in Virgo, which is a sign of great intellect and self improvement.

On Thursday, March 13 at 11:54 p.m. PT/Friday, March 14 at 2:54 a.m. ET, this reality check-bringing full moon and lunar eclipse falls at 23 degrees of Virgo, the mutable earth sign ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication and cerebral energy. In turn, this major astrological event will bring a microscope to your routine, wellness and relationship to perfectionism, the minutiae of daily life and self-improvement.

You could realize you’re at a culmination or even breaking point related to these themes and changing course is not only necessary but inevitable. Because the moon opposes Saturn, the taskmaster planet that serves up tough lessons for the purpose of cultivating wisdom, you may find that embracing structure and putting your nose to the grindstone can help you navigate any bumps in the road that appear now.

This Full Moon wants you to do something…but what exactly? Cut out the negative self-talk and chatter. Stop self-sabotaging and criticizing. Be a better ally to your own body, mind, and spirit. You have a six month time line (until the next eclipse season of 2025) to do this, so it can be a steady journey of progress and commitment. It’s hard to change lifelong habits overnight. We all have an internal judge or critic who pounces on our every misstep and assumes others are thinking awful things about us, that probably never even crossed their mind. It’s the most futile and undermining of all mental activities. So, let’s all hold hands and resolve to stop doing this to ourselves. With Daylight Saving Time and brighter evenings here, springtime is officially right around the corner, and with that comes a surge of hopefulness and the sense that positive shifts are well within your reach.

A surge of heightened emotion, dramatic shake-ups and stunning personal evolutions are also on the horizon, because we’re also in the heart of the game-changing eclipse season, which hosts two of 2025’s most impactful lunar events. The first one is the full moon and lunar eclipse in Virgo — a lunation we haven’t experienced since 2008. What is a full moon and lunar eclipse? Full moons occur once — less often, twice — a month when the moon and the sun sit directly opposite one another in the sky and in the zodiac. That’s why the sun’s vitality-producing luminescence reflects off of the moon, causing it to light the night sky brighter than at any other time in the lunar cycle. Astrologically speaking, because the moon rules emotions and intuition, we’re compelled to identify and reveal our feelings during a full moon — as well as tend to relationship matters, reflective of the fact that the moon is sitting opposite the sun. However, during a lunar eclipse, the Earth sits between the sun and the moon, which throws a shadow over the moon. This only happens twice a year, and each time, we’re presented with a full moon energy that’s amplified and wired to bring life-altering shifts. A full moon that’s also a lunar eclipse makes your experiences feel amplified. It’s like the volume has been turned up on your intuition, emotional needs and point of view, and it may seem that certain situations in your life are about to reach a fever pitch — and after that, turning back won’t be an option. Whereas a regular full moon’s effect lasts four days before and after the event, an eclipse’s dramatic energy can be felt for longer — about a week before and after with residual effects playing out over the next six months. Associated with the sixth house of wellness, Virgo-ruled lunar events are a chance to take stock of and tend to the ways in which you’re caring for your health (mental, physical and emotional) but also how you’re managing your everyday hustle.

The sign of the Maiden understands innately that some of our proudest accomplishments and applause-worthy achievements are the result of consistently tuning into and nurturing the smallest details in life. As laser-focused as some signs might be on majesty of big-picture visions, it’s impossible to make anything you imagine happen without a step-by-step, pragmatic game plan and consciously putting in the work day after day. That might sound less than thrilling, but think of it in terms of what it takes to make your garden bloom. Virgo knows there’s magic in minutiae. We’re also in the midst of Pisces season, with the sun moving through the spiritual-minded, escapist, imaginative and deeply empathic water sign, and with the sun sitting across from the Virgo full moon, we’re extra aware of these two opposing — and, at times, complementary — energies. You’ll be nudged to think about how you’re striking a balance (or not) between your head and your heart, tuning into your unconscious and intuition while simultaneously acknowledging what’s rational and concrete. You might also be called to think about how your daily schedule is impacting your mental and emotional well-being and vice-versa. Here, all you need to know about this dynamic lunar event so you can take advantage of it to the fullest, according to your zodiac sign. TIP: read your sun, moon and rising sign: Aries You needed a little break to rest and relax. After all, you take on a lot of responsibilities, and the stress can get to anyone. You deserve a few week’s hiatus to chill and enjoy life without worrying about your inbox overflowing with emails. Take a moment to decompress and get your groove back to take on every one of your responsibilities at the office. Taurus Small exchanges could snowball into more meaningful connections.

It’s time to embrace fated relationships. The caveat is that you might let romantic hurts from the past prevent you from moving forward on your journey. Try not to stand in the way of finding your own happiness. You deserve to experience and feel love. Gemini Small details go a long way. Plan something cute at home with fancy takeout or a home-cooked meal. Be mindful of how you express your feelings. If you take the time to think your words through, misunderstandings could be avoided. Cancer Consider what you will say if you want to keep your connections long-lasting. Things could get mixed up or misunderstood. Refrain from getting your feelings hurt by misinterpreting a message. Read everything carefully or have a friend look at it before you hit the send button via text message or email. They could help you get clear with the context and tone. Leo You’re effortlessly proving that you can do anything you can put your mind to. The truth is that you are at the top of your game, showing everyone that you have the motivation to succeed and the brains to do it. Virgo The spotlight is on you, Virgo. You are used to this anyway since your quiet charisma and sweet magnetic personality draws everyone to you. The eclipse’s energy will make you feel even more attractive and popular.

This is your time to glow up. Do not be afraid to take center stage and enjoy the attention and praise from others. You got this! Libra Being around people is exciting, but you’ll need to set aside some time to regroup. If you feel like retreating into your world in the privacy of your home, then do so. You do not have to answer to anyone. Quite frankly, keeping a low profile will be rejuvenating and exactly what’s needed. Scorpio You are feeling lucky and that feeling could pay off. Now is the time to bet on yourself. If there is a professional goal or dream that you’ve always wanted to attain — now is the time to go for it. With some luck and positive thinking, you’ll crush the market. Sagittarius Start thinking about your next job. Eclipse season is pushing you to assess your future, which could leave you wanting to make moves. Don’t overshare thoughts about leaving your position, though. You have to know who to trust. Capricorn Focus on your needs first. You cannot heal in any aspect of life if you do not heal yourself first. Remember that you are worthy of love. Try some self-care, but harness the energy to communicate what your needs are and fix any current issues you may have. Compromise is a great tool for negotiation, and you have the open-mindedness to move through any storm. Aquarius Emotional intimacy can be daunting. Don’t be shy about exploring new avenues or partnerships, but make sure to do thorough research. You don’t want to put yourself in a situation that you regret later, so it’s essential to do your due diligence to get the full scope of the matter and find out as much as you can before making a assessment. Pisces This is an excellent moment for single Pisces to get what you want in relationships. Is there someone you have been wanting to get closer to? This might be the right time to do it! Think of what makes a great partner and how it will affect you. Meanwhile, the heat is on for paired-up Pisces, as your connection becomes more profound.

Let’s get some clarity in moving forward. In numerology, 2025 adds up to the number 9 (2 + 0 + 2 + 5). This number is all about endings, personal growth, and helping others. The first half of the year is about growth and resourcefulness. Affecting us ALL will be the north node in Pisces, south node in Virgo. This marks a turning point, as our priorities realign – especially in those areas where our soul still has lessons to learn and unresolved matters to address. One of Pisces purpose in life is to teach other people, how important it is to express feelings and emotions in their soul. Their goal is to be an example, that when you feel something that makes you happy, angry, joyous or if something shakes you, then this needs to be demonstrated. The South Node in Virgo reminds us to release the need for control, over-analysis, and hyper-productivity. While Virgo gifts us with discernment and organization, clinging too tightly can keep us stuck in old routines. This transit invites us to: balance with practicality.  This will be just one of the lessons of 2025.  Call me for a reading and lets figure out how to move forward, leaving 2024 behind while honoring the lessons learned.

The Pisces New Moon on February 27th brings the last lunar cycle of the astrological year and our official entrance into Eclipse Season. Needless to say, this February New Moon will be an impactful one and will open a portal into one of the most transformative points of the year. We are all shifting into a new chapter of reality and this New Moon will open the door. Let’s take a deep dive into what we can expect…

The New Moon in Pisces

The New Moon can feel extra sensitive in the sign of Pisces, making us feel scattered, overly emotional, and vulnerable to the energies of the world around us. Emotions that have been bubbling deep may flood our awareness, causing us to feel overwhelmed. While this can be confronting, being faced with our feelings can also bring a sense of closure and deeper understanding and awareness.

As the final sign of the zodiac, that is one of the gifts that Pisces can bring. It can help us to see the culmination point and perhaps even the point of no return. Reaching this endpoint can bring a sense of wisdom and knowing. Almost like reaching the final chapters of a book where you are able to understand the fullness of the character’s journey and how things may resolve.

The New Moon at 9 Degrees of Pisces

The February 27th New Moon takes place at 9 degrees of Pisces, which is associated with success and mastery. This degree holds the vibration that we have the power to do what we do best and allow our inner light to shine. This degree asks us to show up as our authentic selves and trust in the innate wisdom that lives within. What do you do best? What are your gifts and talents? Take time to celebrate your skills and all you have mastered. Acknowledge where your gifts and talents lie- and don’t say you don’t have any!

We all have things we are innately good at. So, forget societal expectations and limitations, and go deeper. Reflecting on these is a good way to inspire conscious action under the New Moon.

The Pisces New Moon and Jupiter

The 2025 Pisces New Moon is making a connection with Jupiter, the planet of abundance and expansion. Jupiter is often considered to be a positive or beneficial planet, as while it does expand things, it also allows us to see the silver lining with greater ease. Whatever you are facing under this New Moon may feel magnified or bigger than it needs to be, thanks to the presence of Jupiter. But if you remember to look for the positive and focus on the silver linings, you will surely see them! Jupiter is currently traveling in Gemini, the sign of communication, so we may find that important conversations or information comes up for us under the New Moon. Keep in mind that things may be exaggerated, but trust your intuition, as the energy of Pisces will be heightening our intuitive abilities.

Jupiter’s presence may also allow us to see the bigger picture and may bring new insights and awareness into our consciousness. With the Eclipses on the horizon, however, it does seem that whatever information we do receive may be only part of the story. While we are reaching the final chapters, we may have to wait till the end of April when Eclipse Season is officially over for the whole story to be revealed to us.

The Pisces New Moon: Our Gateway to Eclipse Season

From this New Moon until the end of Eclipse Season on April 27th, we are in a portal of deep transformation, healing, and shifting. It is very likely that all of us could be experiencing a very different reality come the end of April due to all the cosmic energies on offer. While this can feel a little daunting, we can use the energies of the Pisces New Moon, and the positive vibrations of Jupiter to set intentions for a brighter future.

Think about what you wish to expand or attract into your life. Think about what you wish to reach an endpoint with. Reflect on these aspects of your life and perhaps write down what you wish to call in over the next few months. It may also be beneficial to think of ways to support yourself as we journey through the coming weeks. As we come back to the vibration of 9 degrees of Pisces, what do you do best? Where are your skills put to best use?

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

This February new moon is your cosmic cue to slow down, recharge, and prioritize self-care. Expect deep, restorative sleep and maybe even some insightful dreams. Use this time to visualize the life you want to create in the coming year. Letting go of stress and focusing on mental well-being will do wonders for you now.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

All eyes are on you, Taurus! With the new moon lighting up your social life, everyone wants your time and energy. This is a great moment to reconnect with friends, attend an exciting event, or set your sights on fresh aspirations. Dust off that vision board and start turning your dreams into reality—this is your time to shine.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

The new moon is opening doors for you in your career, bringing opportunities for recognition, success, and growth. If you’re not satisfied with where you’re headed, now’s the perfect time to make a bold move toward something more fulfilling. Stay focused, put in the work, and luck will meet you halfway.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

This new moon is pushing you beyond your comfort zone—whether that means travelling, diving into a new academic pursuit, or embracing a fresh spiritual perspective. Expansion is key right now, so be open to new experiences and ways of thinking.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

This new moon highlights intimacy, whether in relationships or financial matters. If things feel off-balance in your love life or business dealings, now is the time to speak up. On the financial front, a boost could be coming your way, think bonuses, settlements, or unexpected financial perks.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Love and partnerships are in the spotlight. Whether you’re single or committed, this new moon is aligning you with people who truly mirror your values. New relationships could take off with serious long-term potential, while established couples may discuss big steps like moving in together or tying the knot.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

The new moon is nudging you to refine your daily routine and strike a balance between work, wellness, and personal life. Extra responsibilities may land on your plate, but don’t let them overwhelm you. Prioritize what truly matters, and don’t forget to make time for yourself, too.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Romance, creativity, and fun are at the centre of this new moon’s energy. If you’re single, get out there—this is your best moment of the year to meet someone special. Couples can reignite the spark with spontaneous adventures. Lean into joy and passion—you deserve it.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Home and family take centre stage, Sagittarius. Whether you’re thinking about moving, redecorating, or simply strengthening bonds with loved ones, this new moon encourages you to create a space that feels nurturing and secure. Slow down, appreciate the simple moments, and enjoy the comfort of home.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

This new moon supercharges your communication, making it an ideal time to work on a writing project, launch an idea, or expand your personal brand. Short trips, contracts, or meaningful conversations with siblings may also come into play. Trust in your voice—what you say now matters.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

This new moon could bring financial growth, whether through a raise, a new client, or a promising job offer. But don’t just wait for abundance to find you—be proactive. Review your budget, explore new opportunities, and take control of your financial future.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

This is the most important new moon of the year for you, so step into your power and set bold intentions. Manifest the life you truly desire by being intentional with your actions and words. The universe is listening—ask for what you want, and watch as new doors swing open.


A rare celestial event on Feb. 28 will offer skywatchers the chance to witness a “planet parade” of all seven planets in our solar system outside of Earth. It’s the last time this type of planetary alignment will happen for more than a decade. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune will all be visible in some form, although not all to the naked eye. The cosmic event comes as a reminder of individual’s connection to the vastness of universe. It is said to encourage alignment with higher energies and fostering a sense of unity. If you want to make the most of this event, it is essential to engage in meditative practices and set intentions. Make sure you participate in rituals that align your personal growth towards positivity.

When planets align spiritually, it is considered a time of heightened cosmic energy, often interpreted as a window for increased personal growth, spiritual awakening, and a potential for significant transformation, where individuals may experience heightened intuition, clarity, and a deeper connection to the universe, making it an opportune moment for reflection, intention setting, and spiritual practices like meditation or ritual work. 

The planetary parade is expected to bring about a shift in energy, promoting personal growth, transformation and spiritual awakening. The spiritual impact of the planetary parade is believed to be intense, with each planet contributing its unique energy. When planets align spiritually, it is considered a time of heightened cosmic energy, often interpreted as a window for increased personal growth, spiritual awakening, and a potential for significant transformation, where individuals may experience heightened intuition, clarity, and a deeper connection to the universe, making it an opportune moment for reflection, intention setting, and spiritual practices like meditation or ritual work. 

Key aspects of this alignment:

Intensified energy:

The alignment of multiple planets is believed to create a surge of energy, allowing for deeper introspection and a heightened connection to the universe. 

·  ·  Opportunity for transformation:

This cosmic event can be a time to release old patterns, heal emotional wounds, and embrace positive change in various aspects of life. 

·  ·  Manifestation potential:

Many astrologers view this alignment as a potent time to set clear intentions and focus on manifesting goals, as the cosmic energy is considered supportive. 

·  ·  Connection to the higher self:

The alignment can encourage a deeper connection to intuition and spiritual awareness, prompting individuals to listen to their inner guidance. 

How to utilize this energy:

  • Meditation and reflection:

Engage in practices that allow you to connect with your inner self and contemplate your goals and intentions. 

·  ·  Journaling:

Write down your thoughts, feelings, and aspirations to gain clarity and focus on your desired outcomes. 

·  ·  Rituals and ceremonies:

Create a sacred space to perform rituals or ceremonies aligned with your intentions. 

Let’s break down the astrology of the “parade of planets.”

  • Saturn, Mercury and Neptune are currently in Pisces, making it hard to implement boundaries. Together, these planets in the inspired water sign encourage us to make our dreams a reality.
  • Venus is about to begin its retrograde March 1 in Aries, prompting us to truly feel our emotions and question relationships.
  • Uranus in Taurus urges us to slow down and take a look at what needs to change in our lives in order to level up.
  • Jupiter in Gemini signals a time of growth in our lives, focusing on themes surrounding intellectualism.
  • Mars in Cancer energy helps us take steps toward achieving our goals.

Altogether, these planets are heightening our senses and emotions, giving us a push to evolve and embrace creativity.

Since the planetary alignment arrives in the sky the day after the new moon in Pisces on Feb. 27, we can more easily set intentions and manifest our desires.

This is a moment to lean into visualizations and positive thinking. Remember to be kind to those around you, as the vibes are contagious during this time and we absorb the energy surrounding us.

Here’s how your sign will be impacted this week.

Aries

You will probably feel more sensitive this week, so take it easy on yourself and engage in a calming activity. Perhaps some rest and meditation can stabilize your sensitive emotions. Give yourself a moment to breathe, unwind and relax to be at peace with your thoughts and to reduce anxiety.

Taurus 

You feel as though people are overly demanding of your time and attention, leaving little energy left over for yourself. Putting yourself first might be a challenge, but it is essential that you find ways to prioritize your own needs. Be patient and delicate with yourself this week.

Gemini 

You’ll want to call attention to power struggles at the office, along with controlling behaviors that keep you from achieving your goals. Remember that anyone who appears to be holding you back isn’t on your team and is not worthy of your time. Share your professional ideas with encouraging colleagues.

Cancer 

Stay grounded and don’t let difficulties from the past prevent you from moving forward. If you feel overwhelmed this week, give yourself permission to step away from your work and responsibilities in favor of some much needed TLC.

Leo

Your heart is open and people are in the mood to build you up, so don’t shy away from love right now. However, be careful to not let their sympathetic support get to your head and make you feel entitled. Embrace the warmth of others while understanding their intentions.

Virgo

Be careful that you’re not falling for an unrealistic fantasy in relationships. A connection between the Moon, Mercury, Saturn and Neptune could lead to a broken heart if you fall for romantic deception. There could be a cosmic tug-of-war urging you to define boundaries at this time.

Libra 

Keep an eye on how much energy you’re giving to others. Saturn’s placement this week could make saying “no” more difficult than usual. There’s a risk you could deplete yourself while serving others, leaving you drained. Rely on your intuition to navigate the limits you set.

Scorpio 

Give yourself extra time to accomplish tasks this week, or you could feel overwhelmed by your circumstances and incomplete errands. The Pisces lunar energy favors a good shopping spree to lift your spirits, so you may be tempted to blow off some emotional steam with your credit card. 

Sagittarius 

Since most of us will be roaming the astral realms at night, try to examine any interesting dreams when you wake up, as you might have received guidance from your subconscious. If you’re a night owl, still burning the midnight oil, catch up on reading interesting literature.

Capricorn 

You’ll be in the mood to connect and chat this week, but the Saturnian aspect can dampen this merriment. If you become overstimulated by people blowing up your phone, social media or even your thoughts, go for a walk to escape for a moment.

Aquarius

This energy is perfect for addressing your financial situation. If you’re due for a raise, now might be the ideal time to request one. The reason being is that taking charge and stating your case in this planetary alignment could better the odds of a status change in your favor.

Pisces

Maintaining an optimistic mindset is vital for your well being this week. It’s important to strive to think positively right now and avoid any people or situations that make you feel emotionally inferior. Being near folks that have a good attitude and a kind heart will boost your present mood.

FULL MOON FEBRUARY 12, 2025

The full moon in February 2025 was on Wednesday, February 12 at 8:53 AM Eastern Time. It was also known as the Snow Moon. Each full Moon brings us to the highest point of the lunar cycle, a magical time when our intentions come to light and our manifestations take shape. It reminds us of the infinite magic that exists within and around us. The upcoming full Moon in Leo offers an opportunity to explore self-love and authentic expression.

What the Full Moon in Leo Means for You

As the sign of the zodiac ruled by the Sun, Leo represents your radiant core, the essence of who you truly are. You are vibrating frequencies of light and sound dancing through space. Your thoughts and emotions create your unique vibrational signature, influencing every aspect of your reality. A single thought or feeling can shift your entire energetic field. Leo also reminds us of something incredible—your heart creates an electromagnetic field more powerful than any other part of you, extending far beyond your physical body and touching everyone around you. This full Moon invites you to tap into this remarkable power. When you align with your heart’s frequency, you become a beacon for others. It’s time to raise its vibration and clarify its expression. The Leo Full Moon tends to be a lighter Full Moon since Leo rules love, creativity, play, and fun. We want to enjoy ourselves, we want to have a good time, we want to be playful, and we want to connect to our inner child. Especially with last month’s Full Moon (in Cancer and conjunct retrograde Mars), that was so intense – we need a break!

This full Moon is a powerful time for transformation. The full Moon in Leo illuminates anything that’s lowering your vibration, helping you identify thoughts, feelings, and words that may be blocking your manifestations. It carries the power to help you break free from anything that dims your light. You might experience unexpected revelations about your way forward or feel called to express yourself more boldly than ever before. These shifts help you align more fully with your authentic self and highest potential. Trust that your inner compass knows exactly where you need to go, even if the road ahead feels uncertain.

Like the majestic lion, Leo embodies leadership, strength, and, most importantly, love. Your heart holds the answers you’ve been seeking. This full Moon in Leo encourages you to tune into your heart’s wisdom, even when your mind tries to lead you down a supposedly safer path. It’s your time to reconnect with what lights you up and share that spark with the world. The full Moon in Leo connects you with the pure joy of childhood, bringing to light any wounds around love, approval, and courage that formed in your early years. Reflect on your earliest experiences with love. Were you taught that love had to be earned? Did you learn to seek approval from others? This full Moon supports you in healing these old patterns and remembering that you deserve love simply for being you.

Leo energy illuminates a powerful truth– your uniqueness is your superpower. You have special gifts and talents that only you can share with the world. Each of us carries a unique message that needs to be expressed. Like a royal taking their rightful place on the throne, it’s time for you to claim your space and let yourself shine. True leaders inspire through authenticity, lighting up any room they enter with their presence. The full Moon in Leo asks: Are you ready to take up your space? Are you willing to be seen? Following your heart requires courage. Unlike your mind, your heart isn’t interested in perfect plans or spreadsheets. It speaks through feelings—joy, love, compassion, and sometimes through pain or fear. Leo teaches you to embrace all these feelings with strength and self-love. You have the power to face anything within yourself with compassion and understanding. By exploring each aspect of your heart, you step into your innate ability to lead and inspire others.

This is your time to embrace the full spectrum of who you are. Let the full Moon in Leo remind you of your innate ability to lead through love and your power to transform the world simply by being authentically, magnificently you. Your ego, Leo’s shadow side, tries to define who you are through external validation and approval. It’s the voice of your inner critic and the part of you that feels separate from others. While the ego can motivate you and help you navigate the world, it shouldn’t be in the driver’s seat of your life. The full Moon in Leo helps you notice when your ego has taken control and closed off your full expression.

This full Moon supports you in releasing lower vibrational patterns, like seeking external validation, creating drama for attention, or becoming overly critical and detached. Instead of judging these patterns, simply notice them with compassion. When you bring awareness to these shadows, they begin to transform.

As you shift into higher frequencies, you create space for your truest expression to emerge. As you align with these profound energies and step more fully into your authentic self and unique power and truth, you inspire change.

Aries: A love story comes to a close this week with the Full Moon in Leo bringing some nostalgic moments from the past. The Moon is here to help you reflect and learn that making mistakes is essential for those deep transformations to take place. The past is has shaped and strengthened you, so don’t feel like it is meaningless. These experiences and lessons will continue to be magnified now that Venus is in your sign, reminding you that evolution is essential to avoid

Taurus: The Leo Moon is a quick reminder that changing up your routine every once in a while can prevent feeling stuck. This week, it is extremely important for you to switch up your game plan if you feel that you are not progressing. The video player is currently playing an ad. You can skip the ad in 5 sec with a mouse or keyboard. This is a time of analysis and understanding all the lessons you’ve learned in the last six months. Venus in Aries will give you a boost and help you take things slow if needed.

Gemini: Although you may be more receptive to this Full Moon energy, it will also shed some light on how you have progressed in the last six months. Some of your relationships may be tested as the Full Moon focuses on bringing those particular chapters to a close. This Aquarius season is all about how you are learning to level up your romantic life. If romance is not something you are focused on, this is a period of growth when it comes to your career or your hobbies.

Cancer: The Full Moon is helping you to learn how to be more present with others. If you have had problems compromising with friends or partners, this potent period puts the spotlight on becoming a better communicator and leader. Sometimes to receive respect from others, we need to learn how to protect our boundaries and speak up.

Leo: The Full Moon in your sign is a positive transit that brings you back to basics. Since it is Valentine’s week, the Full Moon in your sign has a romantic aura, elevating the love stories of those in relationships. Single Leos can benefit from a creative standpoint since you may be more willing to take risks with your art.

Virgo: The Full Moon in Leo is a valuable period associated with rest, healing, and learning how to prioritize yourself. You already have the Nodes and Saturn making an aspect to your sign providing you with more knowledge that continues to help you metamorphose. Venus in Aries is also helping you shed some aspects of yourself and discover the warrior that resides in you.

Libra: The Full Moon in Leo brings a vibe you’re already accustomed to, energizing your house of partnerships and helping you remember how to bring about balance in your life. This Full Moon is preparing you for the upcoming Venus retrograde transit because it is a moment of self-love and care. What you learn this week will help you navigate the changes and obstacles that will surely present themselves once Venus stations retrograde. Get ready to expand on the relationship you have with yourself.

Scorpio: While we are all experiencing some of the magic of this week’s transits, you may have your eyes on greater things with this radiant Moon bringing new life and revitalizing your career house. This is also a week for you to make great moves toward your goals and dreams. Your climb to the top gets easier as you remember the importance of support, love, and self-trust.

Sagittarius: The fire energy from this Full Moon connecting with Venus makes this a profound transit that helps you find the courage you may have been looking for. Now that the Nodes are free from your relationship houses, it’s becoming easier to make new friends and to share your stories with others. The Full Moon continues this message of connection and self-empowerment. You are moving forward to claim your spot in the sun.

Capricorn: The Full Moon allows you to be several steps ahead, making you more analytical and practical. However, there will still be the topic of love since Mars is making an opposition to your sign. You can experience the wonders of this Full Moon by spending time with those you love and being more vulnerable with them. Connect with your feelings while you also figure out your blueprint for your next big moves.

Aquarius: As a fixed sign, this Full Moon makes a strong impact on your sign, especially as it awakens some themes from Pluto’s long transit through Aquarius. Relationships are the hot topic this week and you are learning how to be more of a team player with this Leo Moon. Making new connections or reaching out to people you were close to in the past will feel a lot more pleasant this week.

Pisces: Mercury is entering your sign this week, which may provide insight into the upcoming Venus retrograde transit. If you need to vocalize your emotions, this week can help you get on track since Mercury in your signs makes it easier for you to write your feelings out, which can bring you more understanding and clarity. For those who need to communicate more, Mercury in your sign provides that boost of confidence, catalyzed by the Full Moon this week

Aquarius New Moon January 29, 2025

WOW!  We are only 29 days in January and the Aquarius New Moon, which peaks on Wednesday, is calling for the truth can feel like Pandora’s box has been opened as it will be lending energy to this seeming chaos. This is a Moon that marks the start of a new 6 month Lunar Cycle, where it’s time for you to really listen to what the people around you are communicating…as well as to what your deepest self desires for you to understand. This  moon will be about where issues like freedom of speech, censorship and disclosure can be big collective topics…remember that buddhist saying – there are three things that can’t be hidden: the Sun, the Moon and the Truth. This is a time when all three are being revealed.

Themes: Censorship, Free Speech, Disclosure, Bringing up the truth. Uncomfortable much?

FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND CENSORSHIP 

As this New Moon will align with Mercury, Pluto in Aquarius you can find that there is a lot of focus on freedom of speech, as well as censorship and where information is suppressed. This is an energy that cannot be sustained under this Moon, as Pluto acts like a plunger to bring everything from the ‘underworld’ up. It can feel energetically exhausting and equally inspiring at the same time. The key to working with this Moon is remembering that the external world is a reflection of the internal. So consider where you are ready to open up to more truth in your life, where you are prepared to use your voice as a revolutionary force for good and also where you might be suppressing someone else’s truth or opinion because it doesn’t match your own…through the simple act of not wanting to listen to it.

A TIME TO LAY INTENTIONS

As this is a New Moon we’re in a part of the lunar cycle where it’s time to consider what you want to co-create (with the Divine Mother Moon) over the coming 6 months to the Aquarius Full Moon on the 9th of August. This is going to be a period of immense change around communication, technology and freedom of information – thanks to Aquarius’ ruler Uranus moving into Gemini in July. This is giving you indications that the intention you need to lay must be focus on what is true…not what is conventional or accepted. In fact this is the perfect Moon to be challenged by the energy that wants to be birthed through you over this lunar cycle. Let these seeds awaken within you greater authenticity, honesty and rebellion.

We can’t know if what is happening around us is ‘good’ or ‘bad’ (which is what the ego always likes to categorize the world into); but we can anchor in the idea that everything is happening for the greatest + highest good for the evolution of our souls. Something our ego has no idea about (as much as it would like to). So whatever happens – conversations, disclosure, awakening – hold out hope and watch how the universe shifts in response.

INSTEAD OF SPEAKING:  LISTEN!

This is a New Moon that demands silence so that you can hear what is being said, as well as be really aware of when you aren’t listening, or when you find it hard to listen because someone is disagreeing with you. In these moments see if you can drop the words you want to say, and see if there is something here that you need to learn.

ARIES:You’re one “hello” away from meeting the right people, Aries. Get socially involved, as the new moon in Aquarius mobilizes your eleventh house of greater community, friendship, and aspirations. Although your current social circles are fine, you might be ready for something new and different. Your unique interests could drive you to meet like-minded people who share your hobbies, attitudes, and mindsets. There might be a desire to befriend highly individualistic people who will encourage you to be confident in your authenticity. As you navigate this lunar chapter, be open to connecting with individuals from all walks of life. You never know who you could become best friends with.

TAURUS: Dare to be different, Taurus. Do something radical when the new moon in Aquarius hits your tenth house of legacy, success, and reputation. The new moon in Aquarius is your reminder that you only live once. It’s time to stray from your tried and true ways to go after something big. You could use this lunar cycle to pursue an unusual, unconventional career path or professional goal. The lunar cycle could also help you courageously pursue personal milestones and accomplishments unlike anything you have achieved before. Just know that your reputation may change, since you could become a well-known risk-taker in your professional arena and personal life.

GEMINI: Go against the grain, Gemini. It’s time to forge your own path, since the new moon in Aquarius will awaken your ninth house of journeying and expansion. You owe it to yourself to get out of your comfort zone. The lunar cycle will help you push through anything you decide to accomplish. You could set a goal for educational advancement, especially if you pursue an unusual degree or certification. It might be time to travel to foreign cities and countries that you might have been afraid to visit before. Most importantly, the lunar cycle will help you find comfort in your unique perspective as you grow from your individualistic experiences. 

CANCER: Risks can lead to rewards, Cancer. Take a leap of faith when the new moon in Aquarius radicalizes your eighth house of assets and debts, losses and gains. Usually, you might try to detach from your needs, such as wanting intimate relationships and financial power. Everything could change during this six-month lunar cycle if you bravely pursue your desires. You may have to put yourself out there to get what you want. It might start with sharing more of your secrets with your loved ones to deepen your connections. You could also accept and ask for help with financial ventures. Whatever you do, you may have to lose something to gain something greater.

LEO: Friendships could develop into something more, Leo. Your connections will evolve in unexpected yet exciting ways once the new moon in Aquarius activates your seventh house of contracts and commitments. Someone could become your everything during this six-month lunar cycle. The new moon in Aquarius could help you manifest professional and romantic possibilities for partnership. But instead of diving right in, you may want to take it slow. Build rapport with each person who interests you. Let the friendships grow before entertaining romantic, professional, and financial possibilities. If someone feels like the right fit, make your commitment to them official by the end of the lunar cycle.

VIRGO: Stop worrying about fitting in, Virgo. You are destined to stand out, as the new moon in Aquarius rebels in your sixth house of mundane activities. As the new lunar cycle begins, you may feel like everything is about to change. Your work life could transform if you pursue niche job positions, adopt a unique work schedule, and improve your productivity through progressive habits. Your health will be impacted if you are open to personalized workout regimes and dietary aides. Most importantly, the new moon in Aquarius will encourage you to stop caring about what others do with their jobs, health, and lives so you can focus on yourself.

LIBRA: What do you like to do, Libra? Give yourself room to explore your interests when the new moon in Aquarius highlights your fifth house of pleasure, fun, and creation. This could be an exciting lunar cycle. However, you will only enjoy it if you stop worrying about others’ opinions of whatever makes you happy. Who cares what someone has to say about your hobbies, passions, and love life? Only you should care about these things, and how each outlet makes you feel. If you can overcome the fear of being judged, you will flourish. Everything that makes you feel fulfilled will take off if you get out of your own way.

SCORPIO: Are you the black sheep, Scorpio? Consider why you feel isolated by your so-called loved ones, since the new moon in Aquarius will ostracize your fourth house of home and family. The following six months could be emotionally turbulent. You may struggle to find your place in your home life among your relatives. As you process why you feel ostracized by your family, you may remember things from your childhood that could either confirm or contradict your feelings. It depends on your self-awareness and family dynamics. Either way, you will know where you fall in the family tree by the end of the six-month lunar cycle.

SAGITARIUS: Eureka, Sagittarius! Your unpredictability will catalyze new conversations, as the new moon in Aquarius shakes up your third house of communication and media. Whatever comes to mind could become a landmark conversation, idea, and project during the six-month lunar cycle. You may feel initially doubtful if you think of something outlandish. After all, you may not be the kind of person who has remarkably odd interests and daring opinions. But you might become incredibly successful if you trust your unique perspective. Your rule of thumb should be the weirder, the better. Trust the process, since your life could change with one unconventional hot take.

CAPRICORN: Screw capitalism, Capricorn. Break away from rigid financial institutions and expectations when the new moon in Aquarius agitates your second house of value systems. The new lunar cycle may feel initially scary, since you may feel strongly about sticking to your usual financial habits, opportunities, and more. However, the radical Aquarius energy will help you consider the alternative over the next six months. You might become more open-minded to new financial possibilities, like trying side hustles and applying for jobs outside your usual scope. Different approaches to saving and spending money will also change your mind. Give something new a chance, even if it’s not what you would typically do.

AQUARIUS: Just be yourself, Aquarius. Set the intention to take up space once the new moon in Aquarius envelops your first house of selfhood. Typically, you may prefer to separate yourself from the crowd mostly due to fear of judgment and being perceived. However, this aloof attitude and detached mindset will not serve you anymore. As the new six-month cycle begins, you are encouraged to show up in all you do. You deserve to be seen for who you are, which you can express through your actions, disposition, and appearance. Give yourself permission to be confidently authentic and individualistic. You will not regret using this lunar cycle to work on your self-assurance.

PISCES: Only boring people get bored, Pisces. Create a world of your own when the new moon in Aquarius dreams in your twelfth house of the subconscious realm. You already resonate with dreamworlds and far-off lands, so this new moon in Aquarius will make you feel right at home. Your imagination and visions will give way to magical realism. As this lunar cycle unfolds, you could feel inspired to do something with your fantasies. Whatever you imagine doesn’t have to remain in la la land. You could turn your daydreams into something more, like a work of art. Let your mind roam, and see what you come up with by the end of the lunar cycle.

WELCOME TO AQUARIUS SEASON

The Aquarius season occurs from January 20 to February 18, when the Sun moves through the zodiac sign of Aquarius, a fixed air sign ruled traditionally by Saturn and modernly by Uranus. Known for its progressive, forward-thinking, and humanitarian nature, the Aquarius season invites us to embrace innovation, community, and a more profound sense of equality. In 2025, this energy is amplified by cosmic alignments that make this Aquarius season particularly impactful.  

The Energetic Themes of Aquarius Season: Aquarius is the sign of the water bearer, symbolizing the sharing of knowledge and resources to benefit all of humanity. Those born under this sign are often associated with truthfulness, creativity, and an independent spirit. However, Aquarius is not just about individuality; it’s about individuality in service to the collective. During this time, everyone is encouraged to think beyond personal desires and focus on the greater good. Aquarius season is a time for kindness, charity, and equality. The sign of Aquarius is known as truthful, progressive, and innovative. This is a sign that loves humanity and wants to engage everyone and everything in creating a just and fair society.”  During this time, expect heightened awareness and collective action around social justice, technology, and sustainability. Innovations prioritizing humanitarian concerns may gain traction, and communities may feel an increased desire to work together toward common goals.  

What to Expect and Embrace During Aquarius Season: Embrace Innovation: Aquarius season is an ideal time to try new things, whether exploring emerging technologies, adopting new ideas, or rethinking old habits. Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet of sudden insights and breakthroughs, making it an excellent time for creative problem-solving.

Prepare for Change: With Pluto in Aquarius amplifying the transformative energy, this season may bring surprising changes on both personal and societal levels. Be open to shifts that push you out of your comfort zone.  

Love and Relationships:  “In love, Aquarius—an air sign known for its rationality—might find itself shaken by unexpected emotional shifts and evolving desires. “Pluto, the planet of deep transformation, emotional intensity, and shadow work, will push Aquarians to confront hidden feelings and repressed emotions in their relationships.”  This year will challenge Aquarius to reexamine how they love, relate, and engage with others. Intense, transformative relationships may arise, reshaping their understanding of love. For those in committed relationships, this could be a time of renewal, stripping away superficial dynamics and strengthening the emotional bond. However, it could also uncover deep-seated incompatibilities, potentially leading to significant change or even separation.  Singles, on the other hand, may find 2025 to be a year of introspection and healing. “This is an opportunity to confront old wounds and emotional patterns that have blocked your ability to embrace love fully. Aquarians may feel drawn to transformative connections—those “soulmate” relationships that challenge them on a deep, often complex level.  

Self-Discovery and Growth: For Aquarians with their Sun, Moon, or Ascendant in the sign, 2025 is a call to delve into self-awareness and growth. It’s a time to release what no longer serves you and embrace the changes necessary for evolution. “Although the process may feel daunting at times, the long-term outcome will be profoundly liberating.  Aquarius season 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting, transformative period. With Pluto’s presence amplifying themes of equality, innovation, and humanitarianism, this is a time to think big and act boldly. Whether engaging in activism, collaborating with others, or simply embracing your unique voice, Aquarius season invites you to contribute to a brighter, more equitable future.  Take this opportunity to reflect on how you can contribute to positive change in your personal life and the world around you.
