Aquarius New Moon Solar Eclipse: Birthing the New Earth (Ep.56)

This New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aquarius (Tuesday 17th February) opens a powerful eclipse portal. Eclipses are accelerators. They shift timelines, reveal truths, interrupt patterns, and invite rapid endings or unexpected openings.

But this one?
It’s not about force.
It’s about surrender.

In this episode, I guide you through:

✨ What a solar eclipse really represents (and why it only happens on a New Moon)
✨ The deeper meaning of Aquarius energy, visionary, humanitarian, revolutionary
✨ Why this eclipse at 28° Aquarius signals completion and course correction
✨ The nervous system lens: how to stay regulated during collective chaos
✨ Why you don’t need to manifest or “push” this moon
✨ The power of becoming an “island of coherence”

✨ Practical grounding tools for overstimulation, racing thoughts & emotional detachment
✨ How to work with your body (calves, ankles, circulation) during Aquarius season

We explore insights inspired by astrologer Pamela Gregory, nervous system research from Stephen Porges, and coherence teachings from the HeartMath Institute.

This eclipse asks:

Where are you putting your focus?
Are you seeding what you want… or reinforcing what you fear?

Remember:
You do not need to override your body to catch up.
You do not need to force manifestation.
Healing is integration, not acceleration.

Yes. Welcome to the Holistic Health Sisters podcast of Wellness and Real Life Sisters Hannah Carr and Sarah King from the Holistic Health Collective. In this podcast, we're going to be sharing our passion for, of course, holistic health, but also spirituality, healings, hormone, plant medicine, seasonal living, our love of nature, and our love of community. So we are gonna invite you to take a pause and take a nice deep breath. And join us on a path of healing, of self-discovery and self-love, and of stepping into the brilliance of who you really are. This is a podcast for the seekers out there. Those of you who know there's more to life than just surviving or going through the motions, and you want more, more health, wealth, happiness, love, compassion, connection, trust, surrender. And more faith. And you want that for others too. So we can make this world a better place for us all. So go and grab a cup of ceremonial grade cacao and join us as we explore what moves through us, that which is divinely led, so we can all move from fear to walls. More faith. Thank you so much for being here with us today. Hi, beautiful souls Sarah here with an Aquarius Solar Eclipse, jam packed episode. Ah, so let me take a breath before we start and encourage you to do that too, because the breath is a direct link to our nervous system and our thoughts. So just encouraging that connection to your breath, whether it's a slow breath, a full breath, a big sighing breath. As I record this, it's Friday the 13th. Got the lovely sound of wind outside my windows here on the Kent Coast and the pitter-patter of rain on the windows. And so I'm still wintering and I am really in the energy of this solar eclipse. So I want you to just scan your own mental body, your physical body, your emotional body, your energy body. Just a brief one, just to check in, like how are you, how are you in middle of winter still, and how is your body holding this eclipse energy? So before I share the words and the mental understanding of this, it's really good just to come back to our own earthly body and check what's our capacity, how are we, what do we need in this moment? So the juicy details, it's a New Moon, Aquarius. It is a solar eclipse, and it's happening in London on Tuesday, February the 17th at 12:13 PM in New York, Tuesday the 17th at 7:13 AM and in LA at 4:13 AM So solar eclipse. This only happens on a new moon, by the way. No, it won't happen on a full moon. That will be a lunar eclipse, which we have in a couple of weeks actually. This eclipse opens up a portal of eclipse, a window of eclipses. So it happens when the moon moves between the earth and the sun on a new moon, and it temporarily obscures the sunlight. And let's just feel into think into what does the sun represent here on earth. For us, it's connected to our energy, our life force vitality, and also like ego identity. So when the sun is eclipsed, something gets interrupted in our life, something is obscured, something is often being course corrected. And it said that eclipses are real accelerators and they can move timelines, they can reveal truths, and they bring kind of very rapid endings or unexpected opportunities. So be open. And this one is happening right at the end of Aquarius season, so at 28 degrees. So it's gathered all of that information and energy through Aquarius season, and I'll go into all the meaning of Aquarius energy as we go through the episode. So it is definitely a degree of accumulation of fullness. Something's completing, something's ready to shift, and I will support you with this through some advice during this episode. And of course, I'm always gonna invite you into the inner circle where we do this online. And this will be on that new moon on Tuesday, the 27th of February. And the live circle will be at 7:30 PM but I always do replay as well. So let's think about Aquarius. It's an air sign. Air sign is really connected to our mental state ideas, thinking intellect, higher perspective, and connection. Neural pathways, right? And it's ruled by the planet Uranus, the planet of revolution, innovation, disruption, and awakening. So a lot of this energy is around like futuristic progression, visionary humanitarian. Independent, very future focused and non-conforming. And when Aquarius energy is in balance, it's really innovative and hopeful and aligned with the collective healing. You might have heard that, that we are in the age of Aquarius and it's gonna be less about the I and more about the, we and Aquarius are courageous enough to stand alone, but when the energy gets out of balance, and I'm thinking. Through an Ayurvedic lens here, with too much Vata, too much wind, air, and ether in the system, it can become a little emotionally detached and distance. Kind of thinking our feelings instead of feeling them, it can be a bit rebellious for the sake of it impatient, overstimulated, and disconnected from the body. So please watch this. My loves this eclipse may amplify that mental field for you, may race your thoughts, it could interrupt your sleep and emotions may feel a bit distance or kind of suddenly very sharp. So, particularly on the 17th of February, know your capacity, watch your thoughts. Like is your mind racing? A lot of my clients use that word. I feel like I'm spiraling, right? And you can spiral up and you can spiral down. But sometimes doing less is doing more. And this eclipse is about allowing, it's about surrendering. It's about allowing this karmic timeline to happen to accelerate us forward. So one of the main themes is liberation and collective evolution. This lunation Nation is asking us, no, it's telling us to change a change that liberates us. It really creates freedom. It unites us with a vast possibility, beauty and divinity of this life and of you. Aquarius governs collective evolution, personal expression, power to the people, community, questioning authority, and breaking down outdated systems. Hmm. Has anyone seen this play out in the collective fields? I dunno if you watch the news or scroll socials, but what's coming up on your feed? What's being projected to you? It might feel like control feels louder externally. Structures might feel shaky, and the 3D world may feel chaotic, but it's okay, right? We're right on time. The eclipse is just asking us to be laser focused. Where will you put your focus, like new moons? Ask this of us anyway. Where are you putting your energy? What are you focusing on? What's your intentions? Your thoughts are seeding the future. Fantastic astrologist, Pamela Gregory, who I've been doing some deeper studies with, she's saying that we are birthing the new earth with our thoughts and our focus. So what you're focusing on and are you focusing on what you want or what you don't want? And with Aquarius, there is spiritual responsibility in your thoughts. So when you want to put your mind towards what you wish to create, what you love to create, what makes you, what lights you up and feels good. This is not an act of selfishness. This is doing good for the collective. So let just speak a little bit for a trauma informed lens about surrendering. Trusting you are on the right timeline. Allowing, oh, so I always invite a softening here. So maybe a reconnection to your breath. And like, if this eclipse does feel destabilizing because it's bringing like a lot of unexpected or fast moving things, maybe suddenly life is picked up a rapid pace and maybe structures are crumbling and you feel scared, worried, concerned. Maybe your nervous system feels really sensitized to the shift. And of course for, you know, this community, you and the other hearts here, you know, you've probably got decades upon decades of overgiving, of pushing, of making it happen because you had to, because no one else was picking it up for you. Perhaps your nervous system has been in survival. So like a little bit through education here. If we go through polyvagal theory, Stephen Porges is like, this is not our green light. This is not our ventral vagal, this is probably sympathetic activation or parasympathetic. This could be us, pushing so hard that we've gone a bit into shutdown. And it might feel really hard to stay present and be hopeful about the future. Like Aquarius is asking if your current reality is showing you stress. So I just want you to pause and know you are on time, and I've heard this again for a lot of one-to-ones with clients, like, I need to get ahead, I'm behind, I've got this information and I need to be going through it. And I'm saying no, like. Less information is good. Pausing, breathing. You do not need to force your evolution. You do not need to push manifestation. You know, a lot of people like to manifest on you moons. Oh, please take a step back from that. On this moon. You do not need to override your body to catch up. This new moon eclipse is really not about controlling outcomes. Oh, thank goodness. It's about surrendering timelines. So, like I said, often on a new moon we will set intentions and direct our energy and focus, but it is said on an eclipse New Moon, it could be too fast and we don't want to force things. So instead just hand it over. Just try it. Just experiment. Just soften and allow, it sounds easy, doesn't it? Doing it in reality can feel different, and that is why it is so important for me to be in a community of expanders. The term expanders is being with a community that you look at them and think, oh, their life looks easy and fun and beautiful and safe and creative, and I want that. And maybe they, maybe this community feels like they're just half a step in front of you or one or two steps. It's not so far in front. It feels out of reach and unbelievable to you. But like what? Who are your expanders in your life? Are you surrounding yourself with people that you feel like you're constantly saving? Or do you feel like when you spend time with these people, they are absolutely lighting you up? They're inspiring you, they're giving you energy. If your body feels tired when you're with these people, perhaps it's indicating you towards creating a different community that is gonna help you evolve. So yeah, eclipse, if your body feels tired rest, if you feel like you're on an energy roller coaster up, please simplify. And if emotions feel distant, that might be Aquarius Energy, although we are at the end of that now. So ask yourself, how can I gently return to sensation? And so for me, if I feel like I'm going into like a bit of shutdown, it's not gonna be jumping up and down on the spot and doing a workout. It's gonna be listening to gentle music that starts to kind of awaken sound and then sound will awaken my breath, and then breath will awaken my movement. And then, I'll be in ventral vagal. Feeling a bit more switched on and green light and connected. Healing is not about acceleration, it's about integration. So one term I'm gonna use a lot during the New Moon ceremony and beyond is about being an island of coherence in a chaotic timeline. So Aquarius governs the collective and collective field can feel really loud at the moment. And coherence is if you check out Heart Math Institute, they research coherence. This is about being heart led. This is about knowing the heart is a big organ of regulation, and that when we lead from our heart, not just ahead or lead more from the heart, we are gonna be creating that new earth that feels beautiful in alignment, feels safe, feels like we're all healing collectively. You can do this as certain type of breath work, which we will practice in the New Moon ceremony. I've also got many recordings of this inside the healing portal where all the replays go of the new moon and forming moon circles. But you know, for you, it might just feel like when, when things are chaotic to get into more coherence. Just ground, right Step outside. Touch a tree, look at the clouds moving. Slow your breath. Place your hands on your heart. Try not to fix the world. Try to just regulate yourself so that that ripples outwards. Right now, our nervous systems really need resourcing, and our resourcing looks different for all of us at different stages of our cycle. So a really good inquiry would be what is actually helping me to feel safe in this moment? How can I expand without feeling overwhelmed? And who feels steady to be around? So you know, many forms of resourcing. It could be time in nature. Nature is a master regulator for the nervous system. Could be a trusted friend. Therapy breath work, turning off your phone. It could be a warm cup of tea, sound healing, prayer. You cannot build your new earth from a dysregulated nervous system. So focus on that. My loves. Remember, each season, each moon rules a body part while Aquarius has been working with your shins, your calfs, your ankles, and a little bit circularity and blood vessels. The ankles, the feet, they connect the body to earth. They help you move forward to take those future steps. And Aquarius is a bit like. A bridge between the earth and the cosmos. So you might just go for a really nice brisk walk with some fresh air focusing on your breath and your feet Inside the new moon circle, we are going to be practicing particular things that will help these body parts, and I'll be talking to that in more detail through the lens of Ayurveda yoga and natural healing. You really want to avoid overstimulation excitability, so I'm sorry to be the bearer. Bad news, but can you calm it down with your caffeine, your sugar intake screen time overworking? These can all spike the nervous system. Be vigilant with your sleep hygiene, your technology. Try and unplug. Try and clear your energy field. Remember emotionally, Aquarians can dissociate and we all have Aquarius energy in us. So ask yourself with curiosity, am I in my body or am I floating in my thoughts? You might even at this moment, place a hand on your calves, massage your ankles, feel your feet, and come home. We've got some lovely so inquiries for you. We will be embodying these in our new moon circle. What future am I quietly craving, but perhaps too afraid to claim? What outdated mindset can I release? How can I serve my community in a way that feels authentic? So remember that you are the change that you wish to see. So many of my beautiful, ladies in our community are like, why? Why does it have to be me every single time? And I just say back, like, it does start with us, but we have to pace it out. Right. That's why we work with the 13 moons. That's why we work with each breath. We don't have to take it all on board. We can go one at a time, so, Hmm. Couple of. Extra invitations for you, we would love to invite you onto this new moon circle. If you just go onto our website, holistic health collective.co uk, you'll see a tab that says online and there you can sign up, pay what you feel is right. The ladies that get the most, and I'm talking. Relationship changing, career changing, health changing, like embodying a good life for them, getting to design what that feels like. They're inside the healing portal and they sign up. Well, most of them have been in there couple of years now. But, pace it for yourselves. But I know some of you are like, I'm so ready for this. Like, okay, part of me feels a little bit like, I'm not sure, perhaps you've come to a few moon ceremonies already and you're like, okay, I wanna check this out. I wanna see how great my life can be. The healing portal is open for you to jump in and start resourcing like a Aquarian and, I have a wonderful in-person invitation for you. One, the silent retreat is open again and filling up., We held the last one in January, 2026. The next one is bank holiday, May, 2026. And, this is where people are saying oh, I had bigger change on this retreat than on any other, because we went so deep into your nervous system healing. So that's open for booking, and as you are listening to this before the 17th of February, we are in the sludge of the last few days of the wood snake in Chinese. Astrology and Chinese New Year Power Horse is coming in, galloping in, and I know a lot of us are like so ready for that change, but we're in the last few breaths of the wood snake. So what I'm doing is I'm gonna take one wonderful person on a one-to-one retreat. Here in Westgate on Sea, where I'm recording this by the sea, and this is gonna happen on the spring equinox, and this is gonna be like last bits of detox for the body, the mind, the emotions, before we really create that purposeful and meaningful year ahead. So this is a really bespoke container, so whatever you are bringing. Anything that you wanna work on physically, mentally, and emotionally and spiritually, we can really design it for you.
