This New Moon in Aquarius Baño Will Help You Quantum Leap This Eclipse Season
It’s as if a sleeping giant has awakened. The collective shared a deep need to rest and recharge during the month of January, but February brings a different energy. Even if you’re still yawning those last yawns from January, February is the fresh start you get from splashing cold water on your face in the morning. It wakes you up to the endless possibilities of life.
The New Moon in Aquarius peaks on February 17th and brings with it the start of our first eclipse season of 2026. While new moons are great for manifesting what you want to bring into your life over the next six months until the Aquarius full moon peaks, eclipses can be the catalyst for powerful change in our personal lives and in the collective. This solar eclipse can be the last bit of shedding skin from the year of the snake and the spark to begin the year of the fire horse.
Aquarians are humanitarians, so whether it’s your sun or moon sign, you can tap into the qualities of this air sign to strengthen and lift the collective vibration as well as transforming your own life. But be mindful, this change can be accelerated, so watch what you wish for, you may just get exactly that and quickly.

What is the Meaning of the 2026 New Moon in Aquarius?
New moons are about manifesting what you want to bring into your life and each zodiac sign places a focus on specific areas of life. Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet of innovation, rebellion, and sudden change. Consider this when thinking about what you want to manifest under the Aquarius New Moon that coincides with a solar eclipse, which accelerates your wishes.
Areas of life to focus on during the Aquarius New Moon include friendships, humanitarian efforts, humor, seeing the future, and excessive detachment. If you’re feeling isolated in your life and living in fear of involvement of any kind with others, you may wish to break this block by wishing for it to be totally lifted from you.
Each zodiac sign also rules specific areas of the body and Aquarius rules the restoring of ankles and calves, circulation, cramps and spasms, and varicose veins. If you’re facing any challenges in any of those areas, you can wish for a total healing to occur.
