The first new moon of the year brings an information explosion in which everything seems to be interconnected.

It appears in a stellium, alongside Pluto and Mercury. Over the weekend, a wave of ideas came to me of how Wednesday’s new moon at 9° Aquarius could manifest, and I’m sharing them in a very long list, here, in this week’s post. You can expect to see a plethora of new technological developments, aggressive acceleration of the digitization of society, newly forged global alliances and open conversations about the releasing of long-held secrets.
With a kite formation pointing to the Venus-Neptune-North Node conjunction in Pisces, we see a blurring of the line between the physical, digital and spiritual. In the dreamy sign of Pisces, this triple conjunction has a deep affinity for the natural world and embraces its chaotic beauty of its interconnectedness. A reintroduction to the concept of a technological singularity that is coming—and the strong resistance of the human spirit towards it.
Within the blurred line of the singularity, we can find things like the launching of the International Barcode of Life Consortium or iBOL. A key mission of iBoL is to use a barcode scanning system to monitor global biodiversity through biosurveillance. The newly updated website was launched at the beginning of this year, with introductory videos to this next level surveillance-based environmental stewardship.
Let’s dive into some other possible manifestations of this visionary, tech-fueled Aquarius new moon:
People being greedy for information
Discussions around disclosure and the releasing of classified information
Installment of new public surveillance systems
Transformation of the workforce, including increased unemployment
Focused and specialized transformations of the skillsets of many
Ramping up and conflation of conspiracy theories
Applications using super AI
Small events having big consequences
Scrutiny of limitations of digital currency
New developments in deep learning AI such as ChatGPT
News about the exponential growth of technology
Decoding of encrypted messages
Introduction of smart cities
Hacking and crashing of computer systems and digital platforms
New authentication systems for applications
Bans on censorship
New developments in quantum computing
Releasing of new sci-fi fantasy films
News about the deep research of consciousness and the digitisation of it
New generation of many emerging tech startups in low and middle income countries
Low and middle income countries becoming a key part of the new technological workforce
Yes, countries that are a part of what was once called the ‘developing world’ will play an important role in the new tech revolution. Keep an eye on West African countries such as Nigeria, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Mali as new players in the global digital economy.
As the Internet of Things becomes part of our society, more people will be needed to prepare the world for it with new infrastructure. The global tech boom is coming and we will see new technology hubs along with those often talked about smart cities springing up everywhere!
If all of the chatter about technology and a new world makes you nervous or even fearful, here are some ways you can personally harness this new moon in Aquarius energy for the next few days:
Give yourself permission to change your mind about something or someone
Be cautious of overthinking a situation
Make an important decision about something that has been lingering
Follow your intuition while remaining objective
Release yourself from the power of a secret
Understand that knowledge is power
Be discerning when dealing with lots of information
Learn something new
Embrace new ways to communicate with others
Start or join an organization that focuses on something that you’re passionate about
Stay grounded in the midst of mental overstimulation
Find ways to relax in the face of anxiety
Try collaborating with others to a solve problem
Troubleshoot an old tech issue
Spend quality time with your closest friends
Have a virtual coffee with friends from afar
Remember, this is a good time for setting intentions, especially for new beginnings. This Aquarius new moon is full of new, leading edge stuff, so especially now, you can be fearless in creating your own sense of utopia in the world. Enjoy!
