REBUILD: NEW MOON IN AQUARIUS

The New Moon is a time of new beginnings and fresh starts; when it’s conjunct Pluto, it brings a powerful energy of transformation and rebirth. This is a time when we can let go of old patterns and habits that no longer serve us and embrace new ways of being.

Pluto is the planet of transformation, and it can bring up deep-seated emotions and reveal hidden truths. So during this New Moon, we may feel a sense of intensity as we’re forced to confront and release old traumas and negative patterns.

It’s important to remember that this is a time of growth and renewal. As we let go of old patterns, we open ourselves up to new possibilities and opportunities. Use this energy to your advantage, reflect on your life and think about what you want to change, and create a plan to make it happen. It’s a great time to start new projects, set new goals and make some changes in your life.
