On January 21, 2023, at 8:53pm, GMT, there is a New Moon taking place in the pioneering, eccentric and revolutionary sign of Aquarius. It is not only the first new moon of the year but also the first, after many months, that takes place with almost all the planets in direct motion given that Mars has already gone direct since January 12th and Mercury since January 18th. Only Uranus, the modern dispositor of the New Moon, remains, officially, retrograde – but it is also about to turn direct within the next couple of days. Once that happens, all the planets will be moving direct for three whole months, a period during which one can ‘sail’ away and travel unhindered to new destinations.
