Aquarius season is here – as well as a New Moon (Picture: Getty Images/iStockphoto)
The next New Moon is on January 21, in the sign of Aquarius.
New Moons are a time for activation, initiation, creation, and go-getting ambition. It’s time to make a start on new adventures, goals, projects, and activity.
You are brimming with energy and enthusiasm; invest it wisely into something that will bring positive rewards.
The New Moon in Aquarius empowers you with inventive and problem-solving skills and ideas. This is a time to get to the truth of your biggest issue, see it clearly and as it is, and tackle it.
Think out of the box, progressively, in a new way and from a new angle. You can overcome anything right now, although it’s likely the answer will be something unexpected, so keep a very open mind.
Let the tarot give you a nudge as to what issue you can bring this magical, imaginative energy to…
Aries

Tarot card for Aries for the New Moon in Aquarius: Ace of Swords
Meaning: Consider what the most difficult or potentially conflict-causing conversation is that you need to have this month and plan it well right now.
The New Moon is the right time to have this chat, to enter into it with an open mind and try to focus it on resolution, solutions and compromises that get you both out the other side quickly and in one piece, with progress made.
Listen more than you talk (so choose your opening words carefully). But get it done because it will lead to a better place.

Put some inventive energy into sprucing your portfolio, your network, your social or professional media, your website or shopfront or CV… and sparkle! Let them come to you, but make sure they can see you, find you, and know you’re open for offers.
The Three of Coins shows you’re in need of a new opportunity or input and if you showcase your strengths and talents it will catch the eye of someone with influence. Be all glowy and confident.

Tarot card for Gemini for the New Moon in Aquarius: Ace of Cups
Meaning: You wish to rekindle your love life.
This New Moon you can activate an imaginative plan to help reignite those flames of passion with your partner (with very little effort, as they are still as in love as they ever were…) or find a new love, if you’re single.
The Ace of Cups shows now is the right time to focus on this. Be your fabulous, eccentric, unique and quirky self. Be creative. Don’t follow the crowd, dress like everyone else, or do the ‘norm’. Be different, it’s your specialty.

Need to put the past behind you? (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Cancer for the New Moon in Aquarius: Five of Coins
Meaning: You nurture a longheld regret or grudge that actually only works its poison and negativity on yourself. All that angst just turns inwards and brings your mood and outlook down.
The Five of Coins asks you to look again at this situation, see it with new or different eyes, get a fresh perspective, process the feelings, seek to move past it vs dwelling in it.
The event is long gone. You can’t change it. Learn to put it away and get on with your future, because it’s bright.

Tarot card for Leo for the New Moon in Aquarius: King of Coins
Meaning: Leadership is in your blood, you were born to rule, have natural authority and come off as regal most of the time (when you’re not playing).
The King of Coins sees you feeling frustrated that you can’t lead as you wish to right now and you want that role. Use this New Moon to come up with a new plan.
Stop trying the same old tactics. Leaders are flexible, they adapt to the situation, so look again and change the strategy. You can crack this and get to be in the position you yearn for, but you need to be shrewd and savvy

Tarot card for Libra for the New Moon in Aquarius: The Star
Meaning: You are sabotaging a dream of yours and you’re not even sure why.
Maybe it’s fear that it won’t come true so you accelerate to that worst case scenario. Stop it! This New Moon, let yourself fall back in love with this goal, ambition, fantasy or dream. You deserve it.
Believe in yourself and your ability to realise this wish. Reestablish your desire, then make an overt move in your dream’s direction and you will be amazed how quickly and how far you progress.

Tarot card for Aquarius for the New Moon in Aquarius: King of Swords
