Astrological update for the week of February 5-12, 2024

Mercury and Ceres both change signs this week, with Mercury moving into Aquarius on the 5th and Ceres into Capricorn on the 7th. The shifts of energy when a planet moves from one sign to another are often subtle but there is a shift in focus that can ultimately have some significance.

These are both Saturn-ruled signs, but where Capricorn is serious about building for the future in the present moment, Aquarius tends to be more visionary and practical for the long-term. Mercury (mind and communication) in Aquarius over the next few weeks will broaden our view and encourage consensus-building, something our politics could use a lot of. Ceres (care of the self and soul) in Capricorn could give us the boost we need to organize the details that we need in order to improve the balance of our spiritual, physical and mental health.

The New Moon on February 9 is a Supermoon in Aquarius. The February 9 New Moon in Aquarius is the first SuperMoon (™️ Richard Nolle) of the year. A SuperMoon has a strong pull because it occurs when the Moon is closest to Earth. Even NASA says that a SuperMoon can cause higher tides than usual.

This New Moon features four planets in Aquarius, the sign of awakenings and paradigm shifts. Both the modern ruler (Uranus) and the traditional ruler (Saturn) of Aquarius activate the New Moon to further accelerate the radical shifts that may accompany this lunar event and encourage the expansion necessary for any activations that may occur. Challenging aspects of Uranus can cause some disruption to our nervous system, so having a plan in place to create more calm this week will be helpful.
