The week begins in a slow and reflective place as the moon wanes toward the end of her cycle. This isn’t the time to start anything new, but to tidy your space, wrap up projects and rest. Mercury connects with dreamy Neptune on the 26th allowing ease in creative and imaginative spaces. Venus forms a sextile to Uranus on the 26th bringing supportive shake ups to relationships and strategies.

On the 27th, communication planet Mercury enters freethinking Aquarius. It’s here that we can find words for the complex and unknowable. The new moon in Aquarius happens on the 29th just as Mercury connects with powerful and transformative Pluto. Then on the 30th, wildcard Uranus stations direct. All of this encourages a focus on future-oriented projects that tap into our zone of genius. The sun connects with expansive Jupiter on the 30th giving a boost of luck and confidence.

Finally on the 1st, love planet Venus meets up with both Neptune and the fated North Node bringing love, romance, and yes, a little delulu to the forefront.

(Horoscopes follow for each sign. If you know your rising sign, reading for that sign too will provide further insight.)

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th is for gathering with friends and community. Who’s in your audience? Who’s on your team? This isn’t about throwing a huge party or announcing a project, but about quiet contemplation of who’s on the list. This is a time to connect but also a time to release the need to please everybody. Your work doesn’t have to be for everybody.

This week’s mantra: “Authentic.”

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th marks an inspiring new beginning for your career and public image. There’s still a lot of work to do behind the scenes, but you’re figuring out your path and the resources that will make it possible. Part of this journey is about leaning into bold forms of expression in your personal style and image. You value stability but that doesn’t mean your path has to be traditional.

Keeping an open mind is going to be a key factor in your happiness this year (and over the next couple of decades!). What do you want to learn?

This week’s mantra: “Explore.”

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th is both inspiring and challenging for you, Cancer. The give and take in your closest relationships has created some strain over the past few years, and this new moon asks you to find a new equilibrium.

Libra (September 23 - October 21)

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th brings an intense yet very sweet fresh start for your love life and creativity. For the last year you’ve been discovering new art and music and falling for crushes who aren’t your usual type. This new moon is for letting go of past heartbreaks and failed projects and reopening your heart to what’s next. It’s time to end your era of disappointment and begin your era of satisfaction.

This week’s mantra: “Blush.”

Scorpio (October 22 - November 21)

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th brings a long-awaited ending and beginning in your home and family life. Intense conflicts and power dynamics that became an issue around this time last year are finally resolved for good. Now you get to build on your foundation from a more empowered place. Maybe it’s time to redecorate or throw yourself another housewarming. Refresh your space to refresh your mind.

Not every new moon needs to be marked with some kind of ritual, but the new moon in Aquarius on the 29th might call for gathering your coven (friends) and setting intentions together. This week as a whole brings a chance for you to cleanse your timeline, reset your communication boundaries and make your daily schedule work for you. Reflect this week on how you can make more time for the people who matter most.

This week’s mantra: “Cleanse.”

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th brings a powerful reset for your finances and also for your self worth. If you’ve felt insecure about your income or place in the office hierarchy, now’s your chance to put together a proposal and ask for that raise. This is also an ideal time to purge your closet and find clothes that actually fit (both your body and your style). Build your confidence through committing to both comfort and ease.

This week’s mantra: “Comfort.”

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th is a powerful reset for you. It’s a new moon, new you if you will! Since this time last year you’ve made unapologetic changes to your personal style and image and with this new moon you’re able to set intentions for your continued becoming. As much as you like to be the observer, let yourself be the star of the show!

This week’s mantra: “Rise.”

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)

The new moon in Aquarius on the 29th is your chance to put up an away message and take a break. Aquarius season is your offline season and this could be a powerful moment for you to finally learn how to meditate (or at least lower your screen time!). Though this personal software update is refreshing, you may also feel disconnected from your partner or bestie. Plan some intentional time for hangs amidst the needed rest.

This week’s mantra: “Space.”
