3 New Moon In Aquarius Rituals To Do On January 24th To Make The World A Better Place
There's no planet B.
getty The new moon on January 24th is in the zodiac sign of Aquarius, also known as the changemaker of the zodiac. The dissenter, the rebel, the social activist — we need this energy now more than ever. After all, our leaders seem to be twiddling their thumbs as the whole world crashes down around us.
But don't be disheartened because every change starts with a single person, and with the help of astrology, there's a lot you could do if you only sat and thought about it.
To help you, here are 3 Aquarius new moon rituals to do on January 24, 2020, all of which will make this world a better place.
1. Add light to the darkness.
This ritual is all about finding a link between your life's purpose and how it will help the world in the long run. And to do this, you will need a notebook or journal, a pen, and a lot of alone time away from distractions.
Start by drawing a large Venn diagram with four overlapping circles. Write the following headers in each circle — what are you good at, what are you passionate about, what pays well, what will help the world. This is the Japanese concept of Ikigai, or requirements for being truly happy in life.
Then on a fresh page write the header — what you are good at. List out all your skills. Everything you are really good at. This includes people skills, hobbies, and everything else that comes to your mind.
Once done, move on to "what are you passionate about" on a fresh page. Choose the skills from the first list that you are really passionate about and jot it down in this one. You can keep adding new pointers to your lists as and when you remember something.
The next header is all about what pays well. Because without money you cannot live a good life. And if you are not abundant, you definitely cannot do anything for the world. So choose the skills you are passionate about (from list #2) that also has a great scope for making money. Write them down in this new list.
Finally, write "what will help the world" on a fresh page, and choose the pointers from list #3 that will genuinely make the world a better place. It doesn't have to be something immediate. Real change usually takes time. And if you don't know how your passion-that-pays will be good for the world, brainstorm. It will come to you eventually.
The points on the final list are in alignment with your soul and have a lot to do with your true life's purpose. So, for example, if you are a passionate baker, you can start a baking business, and once it becomes established and popular, you can donate a fraction of your profits to a charitable cause or feed homeless people.
2. Have a heart-to-heart conversation.
Aquarius is the sign of the lone wolf and the outcast. And this new moon ritual will help you get out of the negative side of this energy.
So strike up a conversation with someone dear to you on this new moon day about your hopes and dreams for the future, and ask them about theirs. The more you speak from your heart, the lighter you will feel. Plus, this is a secret manifestation exercise.
After all, you cannot talk about your hopes and dreams and not imagine the future you want for yourself. And all these powerful emotions will actually send out the right frequencies into the universe and bring your desires to you.
3. Be generous with your time.
Aquarius is a humanitarian sign, so the best way to respect this new moon is by being generous with your time and energy. And that can mean anything — volunteering at a soup kitchen, playing football with some kids, showing someone love and affection, so on and so forth.
Just remember: the point of this ritual is to give freely. So don't expect anything in return for the good turn you do. That will ruin the vibe of this ritual.
Although, if you want our advice, we recommend you strike off the selfish people in your life for this exercise. It's not right to give to those who have a history of only taking and giving nothing back.
