Apogee Of The Moon

Welcome to 2025, friends! The year begins with an extraordinary celestial event: the New Moon in Aquarius with Pluto and Mercury. This is no ordinary New Moon—it comes with Pluto’s recent complete ingress into Aquarius, marking a pivotal turning point for humanity and the world. Let’s dive into what makes this lunation so unique and how it sets the stage for deconstruction and transformation.

A New Beginning: Planting Seeds for the Future

Happening at 9°51′ Aquarius, this New Moon signals the start of a 20-year journey with Pluto in Aquarius, which will last until 2043. Think of this as the kickoff in a game that sets the tone for the next two decades. The cosmic energy is asking us to release outdated patterns and plant the seeds of our collective future.

Aquarius is the sign of genius innovation, structured but majority led community, and progress towards the future. With Pluto’s depth and transformative power joining forces with Mercury, the Sun, and the Moon, the focus is clear: Who are we as a society, and what do we want to build together?

The Power of the Stellium

This New Moon forms a powerful stellium in Aquarius, amplifying the themes of the sign: connectedness, innovation, and collective purpose. When four celestial bodies cluster in one sign, the gravity of their message becomes impossible to ignore. Aquarius calls us to envision the world we wish to see and to take responsibility for our role in co-creating it.

But before we leap into the future, there’s a crucial step: letting go of what no longer serves us. Pluto’s transformative energy doesn’t allow us to cling to the past—it demands deep, sometimes uncomfortable growth.

Trine to Jupiter: Opportunities for Inner Growth

This New Moon is beautifully trined by Jupiter at 11° Gemini. While Jupiter is retrograde and in detriment in Gemini, its energy still offers a gift: the opportunity to evaluate our thoughts, beliefs, and connections. Retrogrades are a time to pause and reflect, making this a perfect moment for inner expansion and introspection.

Trines bring ease and harmony, but there’s a catch: If we don’t actively engage with this energy, it can pass us by. Jupiter in Gemini asks us to reassess how we communicate and who we’re connecting with. Are our words and relationships aligned with the future we’re envisioning?

Fixed Signs: The Challenge of Letting Go

This lunation occurs in a fixed sign, and fixed energy isn’t known for its flexibility. Aquarius, while forward-thinking, can resist change when it feels uncertain. Pluto, however, ensures that anything misaligned with your soul’s purpose will be stripped away. Whether you’re ready or not, this New Moon demands release and renewal.
