Aquarius Lunation
Jan 23 - Feb 21, 2012
The
New Moon in Aquarius on January 23 heralds the Chinese
Year of the Water Dragon. Shelly Wu offers a thorough look
at this year, including forecasts for each sign.
The
29.6-day Aquarius cycle supports reform and renewal. Inventiveness is vital to success.
Humanitarian ideals are enhanced through group involvement. Hopes and dreams for
the future need to be examined and updated. Find strength in the wisdom of precedent
and your own inner knowing. The key lies in your ability to distinguish productive
experience from sterile conservatism. Maintain your integrity and rely onyour intuition.
Friends, associations, clubs and affiliations open avenues of thought that reawaken
your brilliance and modernize your approach. Think idealistically and futuristic.
Affirm: I Am the awakener and the awakened. I know myself through my acts of humanity. My genius lies in renewal.

"A Deserter From The Navy
Stands Suddenly Aware Of A Dawning Truth:
Freedom Is Never The Result Of Compromise"
Dane
Rudhyar, in his book An
Astrological Mandala: The Cycle of Transformations and its 360 Symbolic Phases,
notes for this degree:
Man refuses to
accept the type of cultural patterns derived from his society's specific approach
to local circumstances and to the universe as a whole, and in another sense, from
its particular relationship to the all-human collective Unconscious. (The Navy
refers to the ocean, symbol of primordial and unconscious evolutionary forces.)
He not only refuses to obey orders, he deliberately turns his back on his collective
social status; he becomes an outcast, and through this decision he may definitely
individualize his consciousness... Man, the individual, steps out of his bondage
to collective patterns and ideals.

The
dates on which the Sun enters each sign are approximate, as they change
slightly from year to year. If you were born a day on either side of
the dates listed, you were born near the cusp and will need to have
your natal chart calculated in order to determine your Sun Sign.
