New Moon in Libra

This New Moon contains some challenging ingredients, though similar to a soup, the longer they simmer together, the more they blend and create a brand new flavor. These challenging astrological transits will ask you to be courageous and get uncomfortable. The more you get comfortable with discomfort, the more you will grow. Listen more and work towards finding common ground and solutions.

There will be a challenge to rise up to expand your sense of awareness. The New Moon falls in Libra, so ultimately this will be a time for us all to focus on relationships: your relationship to yourself, your partner, co-workers, family and the overall state of the world. This world is built on relationships, so the more you slow down and become present, the better off you will be.

This New Moon sits in opposition to Mars retrograde. This speaks to the extreme polarization that has encapsulated much of the conversations around us these days. This also speaks to how you will manage those with opposing views in your personal life. With elections near, these conversations will likely be held between you and those close to you.

There is more - the New Moon squares to Pluto, Saturn, and Jupiter in Capricorn. This signifies the pressure our collective is under and the need for us all to create space in our lives. Make more time for activities that boost inner peace such as meditation and overall listening as these skies of October will be intense. You can rise above this astrology when you do not react to the collective triggers. Know that most people will be going through some sort of personal or political turmoil so holding a space of compassion for yourself and others will be key.
