New Moon: September 28

Moon Cycle: September 28 – October 26  (Full Moon October 13)

Key Words: Enjoyment, good fortune, harmony, balance, negotiations, transformation, healing

Super Transformation

The new moon in Libra on September 28th is also a Super New Moon, meaning that we will be able to feel its potency and influence strongly. Further, its proximity to the Equinox means the veil between Earth and Spirit is thinner than normal. These elements combined will give us the opportunity to delve deeper into our consciousness to determine what seeds we would like to plant for this moon cycle ahead. So find time to indulge in quiet, solitude and delve deep inside. The opportunity is strong for deep and pure transformation ahead.

And change is all around us, indeed. The leaves are changing colour. The weather is turning cooler and we have just three months left of the year. We are accumulating the data we collected during the bustle of September and while we may find we are wanting to retreat inwards for warmth and comfort, this new moon in Libra encourages us to get out and in touch with others.

Good Vibes, Good Connections

The harmonious energy of Libra makes this a wonderful time to connect with our partners, family, friends and colleagues. Bonds can be strengthened under this Super New Moon so if you are feeling a call to connect deeper with those around you, reach out, make the move to explore a deeper realm of a relationship.

Harmony and balance is a strong theme with Libra. Not only are we invited to find harmony in our connections with others but we are also invited to find a harmonious balance between our attachment to our physical presence on this Earth and our Spiritual essence. We are reminded that our current Earth experiences are not permanent. We have been here before and we will be here again, in many forms and shapes. We often get so caught up in our day to day stresses that we forget to surrender to the will of the Universe. We forget that our current experiences are being offered up as soul lessons. What happens to us and around us does not dictate the meaning of our soul. Only in surrender can we find true alignment with our soul’s desire and path and only in surrender can we become better in our relationships, with ourselves and with others.

Release Stress, Stay True To You and Welcome Change and Love

We are welcomed to release past stresses under this new moon while standing firm in our vision for our futures. If you have been working hard on your dreams and goals, the opportunity for manifesting under this new moon is potent. Hold strong in your values and what you believe you are worth. Negotiate better for yourself if you are presented with something that asks you to compromise. The harmonious energy of Libra will support you in your vision and truth. Hold out for what is right and aligns with your vision for your future.

With that, however, be open to the various new ways your life can potentially unfold. You may find you are being presented avenues that represent strong change. Do not let your fear hold you back. Move forward with meditative grace.

The opportunity for love, fun and happiness is abundant with this new moon. So move forward with an open heart and say hello to the next step in your journey.

Moon Cycle: From October 8th – November 6th 

Full Moon: October 24th

The moon indeed never lies. It’s no surprise that during a particularly disappointing time in the world from a judiciary perspective, we are entering a new moon in Libra, a sign that is represented by the scales of justice. Lady Libra is feeling a little winded at the moment. As with all moon cycles, we are more attuned to the energies of the sign the moon is in and Libras strongly value balance, fairness and justice, compassion and grace. Therefore, if you find yourself feeling  unbalanced, extra-charged, angry and triggered over current particular world (ahem, US-based) events that seem unjust and just appalling, understand that your sense of justice is working in overdrive. Honour your anger but do not let it consume you. Change comes from clarity of vision.

What Do You Believe? 

This new moon in Libra is inviting us to look inside and try to understand where our own moral checks and balances come into play. How strongly do you believe in what you say and how far are you willing to go to stand up for what is right? Be wary, as we are all feeling protective of our beliefs and bodies at the moment. With the new moon square Pluto and Venus in Retrograde, we may find ourselves in situations where we go too far to protect our beliefs, causing unnecessary issues and conflicts. By all means, protect your values, but ensure your approach is graceful, leaving you in the best light.

Women Are Centre

Interestingly enough, this new moon will highlight the rights of women as it is conjunct Ceres and quincunx Neptune. While typically this alignment brings up issues surrounding the rights of women; particularly single parents, it seems as though the rights of women in other matters are highlighted at the moment. Honour that. Take time this moon cycle to extend love, light and positive energy to the women around us; those who raised us, those who comfort us and those who stand up for us.

This is a beautiful moon cycle to circle and connect with your female allies, even if you are male. The energy of the female is strong at the moment and bonding together is a great way to soothe our souls.

A Highlight On Health 

This new moon also puts a spotlight on our health and the concept of detoxification. Whether you need a good cleanse in diet or in your life, we are called to cut everything that stands in our way of being our best selves, including bad habits and toxic people. Any moves we make this new moon to better our health and relationships will go a long way. A large transformation may be on the horizon in terms of our health or relationships, so be proactive and stand up for what’s best for you. Cut out negativity in all its forms and embrace self-love.
