10/16 3:31 PM EST, we have a New Moon in Libra.

Why are New Moons significant?

A New Moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle, the movement of the moon through its different phases.

New Moons are a time of new beginnings.  The beginning of a new cycle, a time to initiate plans and projects, get things moving, a fresh start.  

Abundance surrounds this energy.

New Moons are auspicious times filled with promise and opportunity….typically.

The Sun aligns with the Moon in the sky when it’s a New Moon meaning that they are in the same sign –Libra.

Surrounded by some tense planetary aspects, this New Moon is not the time for risky endeavors or new projects unless they are totally unobstructed.

Mercury and Mars are very retrograde at this New Moon, lending to miscommunication and potential anger and aggression. *Mercury will station retrograde 10/13, although we have been feeling the energy of this since the very end of September .

Wires can and will, likely get crossed so mind your words and your actions.

Opposing Mars and squaring Saturn and Pluto, this energy can feel irritating and limiting, yet hot and charged.

Channeled constructively (i.e. strong physical activity) this energy can be expressed, can have a healthy outlet.

When dealing with this type of astrology, on the positive side it is great to do soul work.

Going inward yet staying aware of the outside.  This is where it’s at right now.

Be present, be still, be chill.

As of 10/8, Pluto is direct.

Jupiter, Saturn and now Pluto are moving forward again…so we can actually feel a little bit of relief.

Pluto has been retrograde since 4/24….that is quite the span of time.

A long and slow transit, Pluto indicates deep transformation but not without some moments of despair.

We all have a Pluto.

Pluto highlights our own psychological journey, soul- deep longings and compulsions.  He is where we feel powerful, and powerless. 

Issues of control, manipulation, death (permanence), sex and rebirth….these are all Pluto’s domain.

While he was ‘backwards’ for half the year,  you were likely called inward to dance with your shadow.

What does sit mean to dance with your shadow?  It means to meet parts of yourself that you might not like, that might feel uncomfortable.

Breakdown to breakthrough, transcendence and transformation….this is Pluto. 

The old must die so that the new can be birthed.

Where is your Pluto?  What has he brought up for you?

Still in the midst of challenging times, be sure to take care of yourself, your soul.

Never feel ashamed if you are ‘lost’….everyone is floundering!   This is a very difficult time.

Our souls are calling out to us to show us what’s missing, to help us, to heal us.

Much more on Pluto’s function, his power, and how he liberates us personally in the video below.

I also go through Pluto as he transits the houses of the birth chart.

This Thursday 10/1 we have a Full Moon in fiery Aries lighting up the sky.

5:05 PM EST 9 degrees of Aries is this Full Moon.

*While we all feel Moon energy, those with Fire Sun Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) and Moon or rising in the fire signs, will feel the most ‘fired up’.

If you have any of your major planets ( Sun, Moon, Rising, Venus, Mars and Mercury) in the cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) you are also feeling this strongly.

A Full Moon happens when the Sun is opposite the Moon.

This highlights the polarities (opposing forces) in our lives.

These polarities are of an emotional, physical and spiritual nature.  It can be one area or all three, and each Full Moon will feel different based on the sign and planetary aspects surrounding the Moon.

Awareness and emotion reach their peak and are heightened around Full Moons.  This is why we feel more edgy and anxious around these times, sometimes not even being able to sleep.

The Moon rules our subconscious, the raw emotions that lurk underneath the surface.

Everything comes to a head under this energy.  There is a tug of war between head and heart.

The Sun is in Libra (Air) while the Moon is in the opposite sign of Aries (Fire).

Libra is the sign of the other while Aries is the sign of the self.

Integrating selfishness and selflessness is what is highlighted during these next few weeks.

Where do you feel obligated?  Where do you put your energy because you want to?

Partnerships and all contracts are reviewed emotionally, physically and spiritually and may feel heavier than normal.

This particular Full Moon has us feeling tense and wired, amped up in and in all different ways.

We can feel taxed, annoyed, overwhelmed…..we also feel somber, depressed and sometimes even hopeless.

The astrology is a bit challenging right now, further adding fuel to our feelings of lack.

Conjunct Chiron “The Wounded Healer” and squaring Mars Retrograde “The God Of War”, this Moon energy flares up our insecurities and highlights where we feel most vulnerable.

Facing off with Jupiter/Saturn/Pluto, this energy asks us ‘how will you handle this’?

Do we lean into our feelings or do we avoid them for another day?  Well….that might not feel possible so it’s best to go deep within for the answers here.

9/22 9:31 AM EDT, we officially welcomed Autumn.

The Autumn Equinox is so much more than a seasonal change.

It is a right of passage, an energetic portal that allows the old to go while we usher in the new.

Understanding that when something falls away, a renewal will always take place.  Much like the leaves change colors and fall away, to only grow again in another season.

Equinoxes are equal part day and night, light and dark.  As such, we are affected emotionally, physically and spiritually the same way.

In order to get to the light, we must embrace the occasional darkness.

We must reflect on where we are at the moment and set intentions for the next three months until we get to the Winter Solstice.

We then turn seasons again and enter another energy portal.

Equinoxes and Solstices are powerful points of time.

They are quite beneficial for intention setting as well as release.  This is harvest season, so it is time to prepare for the months ahead in all ways.

On the same day as the Equinox, the Sun shifted from the earth sign of Virgo into the air sign of Libra.

Happy Birthday to all of the Libra souls, it’s your season ♎️ !

At its highest form of expression Libra energy is all about diplomacy, balance, harmony and fairness.

The shadow side of Libra energy is people pleasing and passive-aggressive behavior so we must be mindful of this.

We are under some challenging astrology, energy that promotes quite a bit of self-reflection.

What is in your psychic suitcase?  What baggage are you carrying?  What needs to be unpacked to lighten the load?

Most importantly, what is the condition of your soul?

Libra is the sign of partnership, of the other.

Where and how are you showing up in all of your partnerships, your contracts?  Or even more deeply, where are you not showing up?

Remember that others are merely mirrors to us, to show us where we light the path and also where we can go dark.

Be good to yourself, be good to others.  It has been complicated lately!

Much Love,

We have a New Moon in earthy and analytical Virgo this Thursday, 9/17.

This New Moon takes place at 7:00 AM EST.

A New Moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle, the movement of the moon through its different phases.

New Moons are a time of new beginnings.  The beginning of a new cycle, a time to initiate plans and projects, get things moving, a fresh start.  

Abundance surrounds this energy.

New Moons are auspicious times filled with promise and opportunity.

The Sun aligns with the Moon in the sky when it’s a New Moon meaning that they are in the same sign –Virgo.

Virgo is an earth sign that is as intuitive as it is analytical, tidy and organized, structured and neat (at its highest form of expression).

This sign loves to have a schedule and to get the job done correctly.  The devil is in the details with Virgo.

Sitting nicely with Saturn in a supportive trine, this New Moon energy is like a breath of fresh air nestled within the recent cosmic chaos.

Saturn is the planet that loves structure and work.

Saturn also rewards us for a job well done and this is where the beauty of this New Moon energy lies….in the planning.

Use this time to motivate, to cleanse, to clean up loose ends mind, body, soul.

Take inventory of your digestion, also what Virgo rules over.

Yes paying attention to what you put into your body is very important, but…….pay closer attention to what you have been feeding your soul.

What have to processed and digested these last six months?  Emotionally, physically, spiritually?

As we move towards harvest season, the Sun enters Libra and we experience the Autumn Equinox- a profound time of less light as we lean towards letting go of what we cannot control.

Just like the Moon peaks and becomes anew again, we too have the potential to do the same.

Allow yourself some quiet reflection at this New Moon to make a list of all you wish to manifest and allow your dreams to come alive.

More on this energy below.

Peace & Love,

Lisa
