New Moon in Libra


New Moon's always bring us an opportunity for new beginnings in a particular area of our life. Once about every 29 1/2 days. This time it's in the area ruled by Libra based on your personal chart. In general though Libra rules relationships, justice, fair and equitable outcomes. It's planetary ruler is Venus, who is in retrograde motion and currently in Scorpio.

This new moon is also in a square to Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio. Transformation and self-empowerment where relationships are concerned then is our theme. As you review this for your sign you can use the information to then create your 10 new moon wishes! Be sure to write them down around the time of the new moon, which is ~ 8:39 pm PST.

But before you can have this new beginning Pluto wants you to take a closer look at how this new beginning will benefit you. Then add in Venus and Mars also in a square. Mars is encouraging you to take action on something you value, in particular your relationships. Now add in Mercury standing across the sky from Uranus and our communications are being challenged all while we are trying to make a fresh start. Just remember new things sometimes need a little breaking in before they get comfortable. All these planets are here to help you find that happy place for your new beginning. But because of the type of planets involved this won't just fall in your lap. Venus retrograde is down in the underworld that Pluto rules, Mars is about to take off out of shadow period, and Mercury is about to enter Scorpio. Our emotions are being challenged here big time, and they want to evolve. The way we love in the past, the ways that have not served us, they are being retired, in order to bring in something new.

The 8th house rules the resources we receive from others. And this new opportunity could come from a friend network. You will need to put in the work to receive the benefit of this new group.

These are just a few ways that the energy may work for you. Keep in mind each person's chart is unique, kind of like my sense of humor. :)

Enjoy these new beginnings, do the work, and take it slow and steady. You won't want any surprises once Venus is out of retrograde! Sometimes those rose colored glasses are pain when they come off!

Love and Light!!
