A New Moon occurs on January 27th, 2017 in the futuristic Air sign of Aquarius at 7:07 PM EST, marking the beginning of a fresh new cycle and a New Chinese Lunar Year!

A New Moon in Aquarius is considered to be a doorway to finer cosmic vibes and this is a time for a breakthrough into the strange, but exhilarating unknown. This lunation demands creative freedom and promotes a strong need to express our individuality.

“2016’s Fire Monkey was true to form with all his sneaky unpredictability and chaotic ways. Friday, the calendar turns over as we welcome the Year of the Fire Rooster—a flamboyant energy that is also a helluva lot more predictable. Given the patriarchal uprising that is afoot, some might not love hearing news that the Cock will reign supreme in 2017; however, although the Rooster might strut his stuff, he’s pretty darn protective of the hens in his coop. And his crows, which come like clockwork every morning, are meant to wake people up. Metaphorically speaking, we are hoping this means there will be more #WokeFolks on the planet in a very short time.” -Astrotwins

It’s a Good Time to:

• Show appreciation to your friends and colleagues
• Develop a privacy barrier in your virtual life
• Break out of your mental boxes
• Seek those that are an inspired match
• Embrace the glorious, outrageous, unique you
• Meditate for world peace

This phase of the Moon occurs at 8 degrees of Aquarius, affecting people born with personal planets and points at approximately 4 to 12 degrees of the Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius) most significantly.

New Moons are an optimal time for planning and seeding your intentions before they bust through the soil and reach for the growing lunar light. But first, take a moment to thank yourself for all your strength and progress you’ve made since the Capricorn New Moon. XX
