Good Morning!
Today the New Moon occurs at 15′ 48″ Libra at 9:47pm (MST). New Moons are times of new beginning. The saying goes, “What the New Moon promises, the Full Moon brings.” This New Moon is in the sign of Libra; bringing equality in relationships and partnerships into focus. Venus ruled Libra appreciates beauty and wants to express through beauty; sometimes to the extent of fearing discord and ‘candy coating’ the Truth which leads to staying in a state of indecision. We must remember that Libra is on the Aires/Libra axis which suggests our ability to express our Self (Aries) and must be a of part of what we communicate (Libra) to others in partnership. At this New Moon time we can create new ways of communicating (Libra is a Cardinal Air sign) in relationships without sacrificing our needs for the sake of peace and harmony.
What increases the intensity of this New Moon time is a square to Pluto in Capricorn to the Moon and Sun in Libra. Moon conjunct Sun in Libra is harmonizing our needs and expression of our individuality through the filter of Libra. Capricorn is the foundation (the bones) we build anything upon while Pluto asks (or forces) transformation. This New Moon is suggesting we must transform any outworn patterns that create false structure in our relationships. The Power Card that I drew today is ‘Stagnation’ due to overdoing, overindulging, over dosing and debauchery. It suggest that emotional rest, going within and conserving energy will rejuvenate and revitalize. Libra rules the kidneys; the filtering system of our blood. Symbolically, this New Moon is suggesting we must ‘filter’ our relationship blood; transforming any outworn patterns that create false structure in our relationships. When we step into Pluto in Capricorn,’filtering’ out manipulative, obsessive, emotionally driven behavior, our energy becomes more powerful and we can lift ourselves out of stagnation. After all, Capricorn is the energy of responsibility and self control and can be useful when faced with the vacillating nature of Libra.
Let’s not forget that Venus is retrograde in Scorpio during this Full moon time asking us to reflect upon and transform our values, self worth and what it is we deeply desire in relationship.
The New Moon in Libra is making a quincunx to Neptune in Pisces. Again we get the feeling of the need for ‘filtering’ as Neptune in Pisces can lead us to over indulgence and avoidance when operating on the more unconscious level; seeking escape rather than confronting reality. Yet we can tap into the Piscean energy of compassion and empathy, towards ourselves and others, when seeking the harmony and balance of this New Moon in Libra time.
Mercury, in late degrees of Libra, is making a quincunx to Chiron retrograding in Pisces at this Full Moon time. Mercury will be moving into Scorpio tomorrow and will make an opposition to Uranus in Taurus the following day. We must avoid getting dragged into confusion around communicating our relationship needs due to the inability to make up our minds or not wanting to hurt the ‘other’. Mercury in Scorpio opposing Uranus in Taurus coming up will bring new ideas about how we want our relationships work. The focus will be on transformation and new ideas related values, money, possessions, and shared resources in relationships.
You can place this New Moon in your chart to see which area of life (house) will be highlighted at this time.
Make it a great day!
