The vibe of ♒ Aquarius New Moon (simple keywords)

♒ Aquarius energy is clear, a little rebellious, and very future-facing.

Think:

  • Clean slate: new habits, new systems, new ways to organize life
  • “Bigger than me” goals: building something that helps others too
  • Friendship + networks: who you collaborate with matters
  • Healthy detachment: less spiraling, more observing

This is a great lunation for:

  • updating your resume, portfolio, or online presence
  • joining a group, class, or community
  • pitching an idea that feels “ahead of its time”
  • setting boundaries around your attention (notifications, doom-scrolling, over-texting)

5 easy intentions to set for this New Moon

Pick one intention. Make it realistic. Then take one action in 24 hours.

Try these:

  • “I build friendships that feel equal and energizing.”
  • “I make space for my most original ideas.”
  • “I upgrade my routines to support my future.”
  • “I share my work with the right people.”
  • “I release the need to fit in.”

Quick intention formula

Use this sentence:

  • “Over the next 2–4 weeks, I commit to ___, so I can ___.”

Example:

  • “Over the next 2–4 weeks, I commit to posting my work once a week, so I can find my people.”

    • Example: “I stop waiting for permission.”
  4. Do one future-friendly action right away.
    • send the email
    • sign up for the class
    • delete the distracting app
    • outline the project
