January New Moon Meditation and Spiritual Meaning. This month's 10-minute New Moon Practice guides you through what to expect during this next season in Aquarius astrology and how to utilize the surrounding energy to your benefit. A new moon ritual allows us the opportunity to connect with our inner selves as we continue to question what it is we want to attract more of and what we are ready to release. Embracing the Aquarius new moon means embracing new beginnings. Aquarius is an air sign ruled by Uranus, known for its forward-thinking and unconventional nature. This sign helps us question our role in our communities (think work, friends and family groups!), innovation, and humanitarian efforts. When the new moon is in Aquarius, it amplifies these qualities, urging us to think outside the box and embrace our individuality. Set your intentions for the month and learn what type of energy you'll be working with as we honor the first new moon of the calendar year!
