Aquarius New Moon
Northern Hemisphere
About this Newsletter:
All of the symbols in this newsletter refer to the moment of the New Moon.
Twelve hours earlier or later and most of these symbols will change.
Each symbol reveals something relevant to the meaning of the moment.
The moon phase and pattern type will have a longer span of influence,
but their effects will still be profound for that day.
This is a beautiful example of the scope and depth of astrological insights.
The effects of the moment of the new moon will be expressed across the entire month ahead.
The new moon represents the seed moment of the month.
If you can tune into or capture the implications of the seed moment,
You will be powerfully aligned with for the entire month ahead.
Most of these symbols have great depth with significant personal implications.
Tuning into them will allow you to master the month.
These symbols come from a degree of the zodiac and a line of the I Ching hexagrams.
There are 360 different sets of symbols.
In the newsletter the symbols apply to the meaning of the New Moon and the degree it is in.
A similar compilation of symbols can be done for the position of each planet or sensitive point in a horoscope.
There are 360 degrees in the university of life.
The New Moon
When your feelings about the past, memories, and your sense of security
conjunct or meet up with
Your confidence, purposefulness, and your hopes for the future
A profound impression is made.
A note on the harp of the soul.
A seed moment in celestial manifestation.
The Horoscope for the New Moon is for the exact moment of the New Moon.
There are no houses in this chart because the Moon is in all 12 houses at the same time when viewed globally. So this is the true New Moon chart for anywhere on earth. You can add the houses to it according to where you live.
Most computer printouts will draw the horoscope with the houses as appropriate for where you are on the planet. This was not done here in order to focus on things valid for everyone on the planet.
New Moons are the peak points of subjective impressionability in the month.
Receptivity to core insights and to God, are accentuated.
Chanting (or even drumming) on a New Moon will give an extra vitality to your efforts over the following month,
until the next New Moon.
A holy environment and spiritual companions are a great blessing.
The New Moon accumulates and reflects on all of the experiences of the past month. On the New Moon the conglomerate of experiences past, creates a high tide of intuitive impressions. At the moment the Moon meets the Sun, light is shone on these impressions creating a new sense of purpose. It is the Sun than effects the Moon.
From our worldly consciousness we cannot see the combination or aggregate of memories, but we can certainly feel it.
Unfortunately our habit patterns are too gross or physical to allow us to attune to this phenomenon consciously, but we certainly can feel it.
Only the initiate or one established in spiritual disciplines can clearly witness the New Moon within.
For all of the symbolism and associations given here for the new moon, there are also equivalent symbols and associations to each planet or factor in an individual horoscope.
Zodiac Pattern Types
THE BOWL TYPE:
All the planets on one side of a chart, within an opposition. One half to almost two thirds of the chart is empty.
The Bowl Type has a deep sense of being separated from one half of existence. Half seems to be with you and the other half not. Because this pattern is based on the opposition there is an inherent awareness of duality. You will embrace your concerns strongly. You will also be powerfully aware of what does not concern you. You clearly see who you are, and who you are not! You tend to champion causes and will usually go out of your way to give to others on one level or another. Your sensitivity to duality will find you questioning the purpose of existence.
WANING CRESCENT MOON PHASE
45° – 0°, 3 1/2 to 0 days before the New Moon.
This is the last phase of the lunar cycle before the new moon. It is often called the balsamic moon phase and it lasts for three and one half days from the crescent to the new moon. The light finally disappears into the mystery of silence and darkness. Completion becomes important. Your own projections seem to disappear in the vastness of all that is happening around you.
You are searching for something new but are unsure of how to end the old attachments. Your awareness of others begins to lose relevance as you approach renewal. Try to understand what needs to be left behind. This should be a daily meditation. You have the uncanny ability to know when anything is ending or about to fall apart. Unfortunately it is not usually wise to tell others about it. They would probably consider you to be too negative. You need to learn why things come to an end. It is important for you to mind your own business or you will keep seeing everything that is going to collapse on everyone. Learn to look within for the new vision. Trust silence. Take steps to move towards your vision. Be very selective. Listen and wait.
Often people will not appreciate you until you have gone. Try to insure that your influence is a positive one. Watch what you say. Often you will seem overwhelmed by useless or futile commitments. Do not try to save face. Be honest and let go.
The quality of ending will directly effect the nature of the new beginning just about to come. So be wise. No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. It may not make sense to others but if you trust your conscience, you will see the way. Hold on to your principles. Do not make promises that you cannot keep, especially long term promises.
You have the tendency to lose yourself in others only to be left very insecure when they do not have the answers. You want to become completely involved with someone. You will constantly search for or wonder about the ultimate love of your life. Often you will feel that what you have is not enough, and then you will wonder why you bother to stay within it.
You are looking for completion and fulfillment and are not likely to embrace freedom comfortably. You want to burn your past for future goals. It is amazing though how long you can procrastinate and wait. You want to help but often do not know what to do. You will probably not bother until somebody else cares.
A little encouragement can have profound effects. To attract positive feedback you must be positive towards others. If you must end a situation, it is important for the reason to be correct, otherwise your problems will reoccur in the new arena.
THE WAXING NEW MOON PHASE
O°- 45°, 0 to 3 1/2 days after the New Moon.
This is the beginning of the lunar cycle and lasts for three and one half days. The light is emerging gently. From the depths of the darkest moment up to the first slim crescent of light, and a little farther until the crescent is smiling brightly.
This is a highly intuitive time filled with deep impressions and new beginnings. This is a time of seed moments and powerful insights. There is a predominant undercurrent of anxious anticipation. A new moon cycle is born.
Born under this phase you need to feel that your life is just beginning to open up. The challenge is subjective: are you prepared to advance your own cause? You should readily adjust your lifestyle to support any new sense of direction that you feel is emerging within you. You will be constantly having to make new starts in life. You will be sensitive to new beginnings and uncertain about your present surroundings. You are inclined to leave old attachments and memories behind. You want to move forward towards your goals and will be frustrated by any setbacks.
When you begin a project it is important to advance with care and gentleness. Make sure that you nurture and protect the germinating seed; ie. the new you. It is usually easier for you to do things than to talk about them. Remember that you do not have to achieve everything right away, but it is important for you to feel that you are advancing toward your goals.
You are the kind of person who plants ideas in the minds of others. You will reach out and impress others subtly. You will always be able to sense the new path that should be taken. As long as you are moving along this path you will feel relatively secure. Worries and problems will surface when you crystallize or stop growing. Do not look back or hold on to the past. Nurture the light within. Protect your own development and do not throw your good ideas out to fools who will not appreciate them. Neither should you follow the dreams of others. Trust your own inner sense of direction. Whenever you can make the effort to be creative, you should. Do not try to explain the process, just do it! Consistent effort will accumulate. Reach out. Rely on your instincts. Grow. Break out of old patterns. Move on. Move on. New beginnings always seem small against the vastness of life around you, none-the-less every journey starts with one small step. Try to find friends who will support and acknowledge your efforts. Always be cautious about what you say. Words can come back to haunt you.
You will always be trying to start something. Make certain that you take time to water the flowers and plants in your garden of hopes and dreams. The end does not always justify the means so make your daily life creative. Take time to smell the flowers along your path. You will be able to draw encouragement and inspiration by listening to birds singing.

Some Aquarius Considerations:
Aquarius is a fixed sign.
Because it is a fixed sign, it is where cardinal and mutable energies meet at 15º Aquarius.
The first half of Aquarius is cardinal or assertive and driving.
There is a tendency to make things happen and to set thoughts and plans in motion.
The second half of Aquarius is mutable.
It is inclined to adapt and adjust rather than push forward.
Cardinal is assertive and mutable is perceptive.
Aquarius has one foot on cardinal ground and the other foot on mutable ground. It is still winter and a cold time.
It will take preparation and forethought to achieve something.
It will take perception accompanied by adaptability to maintain it.
This is Aquarius: calculated action and insightful assessments of the effects of action.
Selective deliberation and strategy prevail
And remain dependent on the quality of insight.
Aquarius is ruled by Saturn.
It is winter and a cold barren time.
There is a tendency to be reserved and aloof.
There is a need to be respected for one’s ideas and knowledge.
One is inclined to idealize authority.
One strives to be well informed and responsible.
The first half of Aquarius is affected by Saturn which reinforces the already reserved qualities.
The second half is affected by Jupiter bringing out a more adventurous and speculative quality.
Aquarius is the place where two trigrams meet at 15º.
They are the Shocking Arousing Force and the Clinging Fire.
Thunder and lightning.
There is both a need for change and the clarity to perceive it,
As long as one does not cling to unworthy ideas.
Two paths meet in Aquarius.
They are Right Speech and Right Action.
One must be cautious about what one says
and honourable in what one does.
Pentans
Pentans are five degree divisions of the Zodiac in which the zodiac repeats itself creating a sub-level of meaning. Sub-pentans divide each 10 degrees of the zodiac into 12 sub-sub-signs adding a third level of meaning. The Zodiac sign is the Main Theme, The Pentan is the Special Focus and the Sub-Pentan is the Intimate Detail.

Zodiac Faces
Today we see
the Face of Humility
Aries: You will be able to accomplish quite a lot today, but you will have to be humble around those you work with. If you can let others be responsible and simply reinforce their efforts, you will gain much.
Taurus: Someone will presume to tell you what to do today. Do not contend. Accept their ideas with humility. If you argue you will be significantly inconvenienced. Keep busy. Silence is golden.
Gemini: If you presume to do the thinking for others, or think that you know better than they, keep it to yourself. Someone will be watching how well you deal with criticism. Try to be humble and speak softly
Cancer: Keep your feelings within you today. Someone will try to prove to you how much they know. They will seem bossy to you. Be humble. Don’t let them know how out of touch they are.
Leo: If you do not humble yourself, then someone will do it for you. Do not question those in authority. If you presume to know it all you will be blamed for things you did not do! Be patient
Virgo: Humility will work in your favour today. Someone will underestimate you and you will profit by their error. You don’t need to prove anything. It will just come to you if you can be patient.
Libra: Get your facts straight before you say anything. If your content is good, then you will be acknowledged. Reinforce the ideas of people around you. Build them up and stay in the background.
Scorpio: Humility will open doorways for you. Contentiousness will close them. Someone will be watching over your shoulder today. Let it be. Do not judge or you will be judged severely yourself. Don’t complain or whine!
Sagittarius: Friendship will be highlighted. This is a good day for you to network with others but stick to the business at hand. Generalizations and personal comments will draw criticism
Capricorn: Actions will speak louder than words. Let other people have their say. Keep busy but don’t talk unless spoken to. You will have a special sensitivity to music today.
Aquarius: You will need to refine your ideas today. Constructive criticism will be useful. Accept it humbly without grumbling. Excellence can stand the test of pressure. There is no music without some restraint… only noise.
Pisces: You will be out of your element today. It will be important for you to be humble. Stay clear of the big schemes and strategies of others. If you voice your opinions, you will be attacked for it.
