New Moon in Aquarius — the Burning Pair // Vedic Astrology
Amāvásyā // In the days leading up to the new moon you may have been experiencing a lingering sense of anxiety, frustration, fatigue, impatience and perhaps have felt more vulnerable than usual. The new moon early Saturday morning takes place in Sidereal Aquarius within the constellations of Pūrva Bhādrapadā — the Burning pair.
This potent new moon beckons metamorphosis as the asterism is defined by life and death, rebirth, tapas (penance), perseverance, and transformational fires. Confronting energies are beckoning us to change.
Sometimes we may be unclear in which direction to take, where we tend to second guess what we want and other times our path becomes crystal clear. You may have been confronted in one area or another in your life which has revealed to you the exact direction in which you should move. Even if you didn’t prefer the way in which the message was delivered to you, do your best to catch the opportunity for growth.
This confrontation of sorts has most likely triggered frustration or angry to surface in your life. Keep watch on allowing this frustration to guide your actions and know that this will only take you out of the frying pan and into the fire — ultimately magnifying your current situation. Instead, get curious on what these emotions are revealing to you. Allow the energies to settle and act from a place of humility and inspiration.
The path you’ve considered many times is open to you now and it may not appear to be alignment with what you previously thought you wanted. Stop seconding guessing, doubting and back tracking your actions. Move in the direction of that which you’ve been desiring and know you may need to change your approach. This time around you will need to commit fully in order to make the change you seek. It will not be easy — you will have to stay steady, determined, humble and devoted — you will eventually live into the embodied realization that this is exactly what you need.
The energies are building and we are essentially being invited to set and define clear goals for ourselves. The goals we set and our full commitment to them will define this next month. Be mindful of your your words and actions during this time as they can potentially be explosive. We’re going through a global shift and rite of passage around creativity, love and relationship. Stay grounded, open and patient — learn to love unconditionally. Remain neutral and unswayed by outsides influences — listen to your own inner guidance, to your unchanging nature.

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
