New Moon in Aquarius: The Word from Lilith

The February 4th New Moon (15 deg Aquarius) conjoins Mercury and Black Moon Lilith. Here we have a new beginning that features information/communication about the dark lady.

BML in Aquarius is the taboo woman who does her own thing. She rebels against all the “shoulds” and makes most people uncomfortable because she is atypical- she does not act the way the rules say women “should” act. In general, BML is associated with women’s sexual power, the witch, the prostitute, the female demon or the woman who refuses to belong to any man.

In Aquarius, her outsider status is emphasized as is her tendency to draw people’s attention to uncomfortable but truthful subjects. Conjunct Mercury and this New Moon, we might expect a shot of disruptive clarity about a very uncomfortable subject. Since it’s a New Moon, there will be more to come – we’ve only started.

This Moon/Mercury/BML make a supportive sextile to Jupiter in Sagittarius. So despite the somewhat shocking nature of this energy, Jupiter offers optimism and luck. The word that’s revealed may come out in the best way at the best time. Others may be surprisingly receptive to what’s revealed, or the forward momentum of what’s happening may be increased with legal support, education or expansive views. In a harmonious sexitle to Mercury in open-minded Aquarius, Jupiter hints that the vibe is non-judgemental and unrestricted. So there’s plenty of room for this to grow.

Watch for some jarring revelations or conversations, but don’t be afraid of what you learn.

Note that this Moon will only be 1 degree off from an exact conjunction to the Saturn/Neptune midpoint. Saturn in Capricorn and Neptune in Pisces will make the first of three exact sextiles on January 31st (at 15 deg). This sextile combines form (Saturn) and formlessness (Neptune) suggesting that dreams/belief can be given structure while structure can be gently changed. Activated by this Moon, it adds an undertone of existing rules gradually dissolving so something new can emerge. That works well with Aquarius’ energy.

January 28th, 2019: Quiet But Heavy

  • Moon in Scorpio sextile Saturn in Capricorn (14 deg)

  • Moon in Scorpio trine Neptune in Pisces (14 deg)

  • Moon in Scorpio square Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (19 deg)

  • Moon in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn (21 deg)

  • Moon Void of Course in Scorpio (21 deg 5:38 pm EST)

  • Moon enters Sagittarius and VOC ends (Jan 29th 9:32 am EST)

A rather quiet but heavy Scorpio-flavoured day. The sextile to Saturn can confirm a deep commitment in a gentle way. This is subtle but serious – a nudge that there’s something you cannot escape because it’s inevitable. The trine to Neptune can deepen things even more as Neptune dissolves limits and Scorpio pushes the limits. So we have a dive into something profound and possibly dark. But Neptune makes the transition seamless – it will feel natural to submerge yourself.

On the way down, the Moon squares BML. She is the Moon’s “opposite” – the point furthest from the Moon. In Aquarius she is the dark rebel woman and sh*t disturber who raises uncomfortable issues about gender and sexual dynamics. When she squares the Scorpio Moon, watch for shadows behind the rebellion. The angry woman may have shadows of her own (especially involving the interplay between the alternative and traditional feminine) or she may be confronting deeper and uglier truths about her position on the edge of society. The square is a crisis.

What’s waiting at the bottom? A sextile to Pluto (Scorpio’s ruler). The last aspect before the Moon goes VOC, this sextile is another gentle nudge. This time you’re reminded of the benefits of transformation which include a total loss and rebirth. Something must die before you can evolve. Nobody said Scorpio was easy.

The sextile (again) should make this process relatively painless, so as you enter VOC territory you can rest and contemplate what you let go of or what left you. It should feel “ok” as in “this is the way it’s meant to be.” There may even be peace.

The Moon’s entrance to Sag should lighten the mood considerably, with a fiery surge of new possibilities – your reward for braving the Scorpio depths.
