The New Moon in Aquarius at 15º (February 4th, 2019) marks the beginning of the Chinese New Year of the Earth Pig. (See corresponding post).

This New Moon is the 11th New Moon of the Solar Year in Western Astrology, and corresponds to the 11th Zodiacal Sign, Aquarius.

Aquarius is the Astrological sign of The Water Bearer, and is associated with Ganymedes, the Cup Bearer of the Gods.

The cup signifies the water of healing. In most Tarot cards, this card is known as “The Star”, and is usually associated with the female healing energy of the Goddess.

The New Moon occurred at on Monday, February 4th at 1:04pm (PST), in Aquarius 15º, with Gemini 19º on the Ascendant, which bodes quite well for Donald J. Trump, the current President of the United States. It gives him a great deal of ability to get his way in most instances, probably to the detriment of his foes in government.

Here is what the late master Astrologer, Isidore Kozminsky, has written about these particular degrees of the Zodiac, using his version of the Sabian Symbols, from his book, Astrological Symbols.

The Sabian Symbol for 15º Aquarius: A woman seated on an anchor, a rudder in her hand and an opened book at her feet. This degree denotes the idea of being guided through the many intricacies of life by a faith which cannot be shaken, being born of a philosophy or understanding which sinks deeply into a receptive nature. At this time, minds will be broad and wide in their sympathies, and people feel and know the reality of the way Immortal, even though they may not be able to express it in mere words. It is a symbol of Guidance.

Sabian Symbol for 19º Gemini: A mountaineer, climbing in the darkness in a violent storm which has blown away his cloak and hat, saved from falling down a precipice by a flash of lightning. This degree denotes one whose vocation is one of danger and technique and who is compelled to labor under most uncomfortable conditions. He will be forced to surrender much, and will often find himself in extremely difficult positions. Eventually he will be enabled to recover himself, and be saved from disaster by a miracle of fortunate happenings. It is a symbol of Interposition.

It is interesting that the New Moon occurs at this degree, which conjuncts President Donald Trump’s Natal placement of his Uranus (at 17º), and his North Node (at 20º), both of which occupy his 10th House of Career. Although it 19º Gemini is a problematic degree, it indicates that Trump most likely will get his way in the the personal and political matters which most concern him.

With that said, it will be quite interesting to watch the ensuing development of his plans for the citizens of the United States. Expect Trump to be even more wildly communicative with his talks and commentaries, as the Aquarian/Uranian energies will continue to astound everyone.

Predictions For the New Moon in Aquarius: As the symbol for Aquarius is “The Water Bearer”, we can expect the torrential rains to continue in California. This will be intensified as the Moon and Mercury move into Pisces, soon thereafter. Tsunamis are quite likely, as well as continued major storms, including snowstorms. Many will think it’s “obvious” since this is the type of weather we can expect during Winter, but I’m sure we can all agree that the level of intensity of the rain and snow is beyond the norm.

With the planetary energies as they are, it is a good idea to really think about what you are saying before you speak! It may also be a great time to schedule a Psychic or Astrological session with me to discover how the New Moon in Aquarius will affect you in the upcoming month. I look forward to hearing from you. ~V~
