Libra New Moon

   Tonight's New Moon at 20 degrees of the Cardinal Air sign, Libra, brings together the mind and emotions to create harmony in our lives. Relationships are highlighted during the next month, whether significant others or people we interact with in our daily lives. Of particular importance will be partnerships and marriages. This is the time to sow seeds for balance, fairness and harmony. Additional focus will be on socialization and beautification of our work or living spaces.

   Prior to the New Moon at 8:06 pm, we find both the Sun and Moon separating from an opposition to rebellious Uranus. This planet's energy represents the individual, as well as ingenuity and inventiveness. What has recently been brought to light regarding yourself and your interactions with others will be a key to where you want to claim your freedom. The rights of the individual within a larger group have been given exposure and this new lunar phase wants to restore fairness wherever possible. This opposition occurred at the darkest time of the cycle, bringing up fears of a new beginning and the need to trust your intuition for how to approach it.

   Venus and Mars also align in the New Moon chart for the ability to influence others with assertion, charm and passion.  These two personal planetary energies engage in the Mutable Earth sign of Virgo, which brings integrity and vitality into the mix. This gives a boost to the Libra energy by focusing on what is really valued in personal relationships. Venus and Mars continue their travels together in Virgo through the first week of October giving us tools to assist in maintaining harmony.

   With Mercury and Saturn in a supportive aspect now, wherever you apply your perceptive mental powers, you can learn a great deal about whatever you want! Focus on your goal and work towards it and you will see success. The thing is, if you don't take advantage of this opportunity to apply yourself, you may miss out on something very favorable in your relationship future.

In the meantime, remember to keep your head in the stars and your feet on the ground!
