New Moon/Solar Eclipse is Thursday, February 15th at 2:05pm MST - Lena Stevens
This is the bookend to the first eclipse and can be a difficult energy for some of you if you happen to be in the middle of any kind of conflict. You could be conflicted by your own confusion or a relationship or an important decision you need to make. If this is you, use the new moon/eclipse as an ally to help you punch through this uncomfortable place of limbo
If you are sitting in the field of ambivalence, it is time to make a decision. Change the field of ambivalence to one of certainty and make that decision from your heart and not your head.
This is a moon aligned with community and the support and help of others as well as your unseen allies and spirit. So, don’t be afraid to ask for it. And as usual for every new moon, it is a great time to revisit your intentions to make sure they are still aligned with what you want. Adjust and refine as needed so you stay on track. Use the eclipse energy of change as an ally to anchor any change you are determined to make in your life right now. A new moon is a still point and this one is good one to experience the stillness that aligns right timing.
Blessings,
Lena

AQUARIUS NEW MOON/SOLAR ECLIPSE
(Thursday, Feb 15, 9:05 PM Greenwich Mean Time)
Solar Eclipse falls in a celebratory week with Mardi Gras on the 13th, Valentine’s Day on the 14th, partial solar eclipse on the 15th, and Chinese New Year on the 15th-16th. This Aquarian partial solar eclipse visible in southern South America, most of Antarctica and the southern most Pacific and Atlantic Oceans bookends the eclipse period of big change and shift begun at the Total Lunar eclipse in Leo on January 31. Whether you are under the light of the eclipse or not, it effects the whole planet, you included. New Moon is always a reset moment; an eclipse heightens that dynamic. What is closing for you and what is now beginning? That is worth a moment of reflection as all the focus (thank you Saturn in Capricorn) that has gone into determining how we want to create and manifest our selves, our lives, our world in new ways while releasing the old are beginning to pay off for those who have really honed and worked with their intentions.
An Aquarius New Moon brings us the blessings of a power sign in the AIR element lending us mental clarity, the detachment and perspective to rise above and see the big picture beyond our own personal center and consider where are the needs for healing social change that will be more inclusive. Aquarius rings the bell of our revolutionary energy. Freedom is the foundation of Aquarian’s need to be self-reliant. Aquarians need room to be innovative, to express their individuality and eccentricities. Aquarian energy is not personal, but it is social and friendly, inquisitive and experimental. Aquarius is a fixed sign, so they tend to have very clear boundaries. In the negative pole they can be thoughtless, even fanatical and unreasonable, and eccentric beyond the beyond and into the weird.
