Libra New Moon

Oct 12 2015 - 5:05 PM PDT                 19 deg Libra

New beginnings; planting seeds for new or improved relationships. Set new intentions for what you want in love, partnership, and relationships of all kinds. This energy supports balancing yourself with other important people in your life, bringing more peace and harmony to these connections. The trick to navigating this relationship energy that will be waxing in strength over the next two weeks is being willing to embrace more authenticity in how you communicate and relate to these other people in your life. Too many walls and boundaries up can leave little room for allowing others to get to know you on the deepest most authentic levels, and vise versa. Venus the ruler of Libra is now in Virgo with Mars and Jupiter in positive alignment with Pluto. This will help to see where things have gotten messy and what it will take to clean up your relationships, or perhaps even starting new connections that have arrived unexpectedly. Transformation in these matters are and will be working behind the scenes, changing your life with others. This fresh start for you and others is asking people to step out of comfort zones and maybe try someone, or something you haven't thought of before, if you know what i mean. 

This Libra energy helps people become more objective with wiliness to compromise, which is very healthy within relationship. Those of you that are fixed in certainty or stubbornness are missing out on the future possibilities. The people you are talking with or thinking about right now will be playing a big role in your future as this energy of this new moon is aligning folks so they can create new partnership, even if it looks a little different than what you already know. Alternative relations of all kinds is very much supported with this relationship new moon.

 Libra new moon is also a great time to start any kind of new projects especially ones that involve fine art, music and photography. Let your good taste and grace shine.

Embrace the other with true authenticity and you'll be in the flow of this new moon.

Capricorn 1st Quarter Square

Oct 20 2015 - 01:31 pm PDT         27 deg Cap

Emotional challenges & obstacles for what was started around new moon in regards to you and others. Waxing energy. Don’t retreat – meet head-on - push thru with diplomacy and grace - find solutions to continue forward. Plan for long term big picture with others while focusing on the short term here & now details that need attention. Business, responsibilities and commitments could challenge you; find balance between your needs and others. Could also feel relationship wounds from the past. It will pass, don't let it stop you from moving forward with others.

Taurus Full Moon

Oct 27 2015 – 5:05 am PDT          3 deg Taurus

This full moon brings more illumination about certain emotional needs, desires and values in regards to relationship. Peak tension between self & others. Flowering phase – emotional energy climaxing. An opposition between the material and what's beneath the surface. New insights and awareness about relationship wounds of the past might allow new healing opportunities that will help you emotionally move forward with others. Something has to change; something is out of balance, which this full moon will highlight. This is a full moon that wants to bring more emotional and sexual intimacy to current and new romantic relationships that were started around the Libra new moon. This energy supports sharing yourself with the other on a much more deeper level of trust and vulnerability; physically merge with the other, if you haven't already ;-P

Leo 3rd Quarter Square

Nov 3 2015 – 4:23 am PST            10/11 deg Leo

Emotional challenges & obstacles for what was started around new moon with others. Waning energy. Time for reflection, acceptance & release. Harvest the relationships brought forward. Build upon what you already have. Retreat from creation for the time being knowing you did your best – no regrets. Don’t push thru, let go and embrace the others next to you. Emotionally express self to others from the heart. Release past, prepare for next new moon. This is also the day the lovers come together, unite, merge, etc. Creative energy is strong but best to wait for the next new moon waxing energy before creating any more for full potential.

I hope that was helpful.

Have a great lunar cycle.

Mercury moves direct; Venus into Virgo - Relationship Transformation Oct 6 - Oct 12

There is some astrological importance that I wanted to share with you about a few energy changes taking place this week, including the finalization of a 10 week Venus retrograde phase. But first, let’s talk about the sun, Pluto and Mercury.

Tomorrow morning (Oct 6) 7am pacific time the day starts off kind of rough as the sun squares Pluto. This doesn't always manifest as an outer event but the undercurrents will be very turbulent sitting up transformation within self and for relationships thru the week. Not everyone likes change so some people will resist the intensity they feel within. Some power struggles between people are likely. Accept and be prepared to move things forward!

Mercury moves direct!

October 8 we have Mercury moving direct again. Remember back around September 17 Mercury stationed retrograded at 15 degrees Libra; appearing to move backwards from the Earth’s perspective. Mercury is now stationing direct and will once again move forward over 0-15 degrees Libra for a 3^rd and final time, reaching 15 Libra once again on Oct 24. Although Mercury will be moving forward again, the universal mind, ideas and conversations are still covering old territory from now until Oct 24, and is what we call moving thru Mercury’s shadow. Therefore the true finalization of this Mercury retro phase will be complete on Oct 24, at which time we will have more clarity around ideas and plans with others that can start moving forward, properly. However, it’s ok to start new projects and buy big ticket items once again starting on Oct 8 as Mercury begins to track forward while the sun is at 15 Libra on Oct 8 highlighting matters that took place back around Sep 17! This means the universe will be working on aligning people in some way around this time. Pay attention to what you are thinking and talking about with others around Oct 8 until the Libra new moon on Oct 12. There could be clues to important relationship activity/communication that has affect on future.

Venus completes full retrograde phase started on July 25, moves into new sign and territory!

The other change in energy I see happening on Oct 8 afternoon and evening is Venus and the moon change signs. This is extremely important as Venus is the ruler of Libra where the sun and Mercury are activating important relationship activity. As above so below remember, therefore it’s likely some kind of relationship changes around this time will occur. I’m not saying negative, just a change in energy, and perhaps moving into a new beginning in some way in the weeks ahead. This move from Venus into 0 Virgo marks the finalization of her entire retrograde phase that started back around July 25 2015 at 0 Virgo. Venus is the universal energy of the feminine, resources, values, relationships, attractions and desires that went back into the past, giving people a chance to understand their own personal self-worth and self -value more, while updating their general values helping folks become clearer on what they want and value in their outer life as well. Values for some people might have been updated along with having a better understanding what they find the most valuable within relationship. The heart’s pull has had a lot to do with what people have desired and are attracted to lately. Now, as the feminine and ruler of relationships moves back into Virgo there will be some changes to the universal feminine energy Including relationships, attractions, desires and values. You see, now that people have a clearer understanding of what they want, they will try and create it for the long term in a very grounded practical way. It will be so much easier to see what stands in the way. Venus into Virgo will greatly reinforce all the other energy in Virgo right now including Jupiter and Mars making matters more critical and serious than they have been; yet at same time, very creative energy as well. Although there has been serious activity taking place, socially, the energy has been light and playful thanks to Venus in Leo. Now the universal social energy changes too. Creating good relationship health becomes more important for most people but at same time things can be pointed out that no longer is working. If so, try and stay open to hearing and understanding other people’s perspective without getting too defensive. Try to be conscious of, and fix what’s broke when it comes to your values and relationships. This is also signaling a change in money matters, so making investments once again is advised, especially after the Libra new moon on Oct 12.

Moon closes out the Leo energy, moves into Virgo with Venus, Mars and Jupiter.

Oct 8 has the moon changing signs too, from Leo into 0 Virgo with Venus around 1:01pm PDT. As the moon is in transit through Leo Oct 6-8, it will be bringing a close to the Leo energy that’s been in place all summer. As moon enters Virgo with Venus, things change. This is the circumstances and universal mood aligning with the relationship activity/energy that’s changing form right now, reinforcing Virgo energy even more which is ruled by Mercury. Combine this with Mercury turning direct that day, it would seem to indicate a change of mind and perception about matters regarding, relationships, ideas, and personal values.  Apply this to your own personal situation as it’s different for everyone and you should get an idea of what’s coming for you – a change in some way, especially within relationship. Perhaps new information has come recently, or something that allows the mind and circumstances to move forward, even though there is still another week or so before people will have full clarity on whatever it is they are talking about and planning for the future with others.

New develops will start happening, allowing for fresh relationship seeds to be planted for the upcoming year on the Libra new moon Oct 12.

Oct 8 - 9 Saturn trouble!

As the moon passes Venus it reaches and activates a square aspect from moon/Venus to Saturn for the next couple days – late Oct 8 – Oct 9 our new updated values in self and relationship get tested as Saturn reflects authority challenging what has been brought forward. This is NOT a good time to push forward and ask for what you want. Reflect on the feelings around this time before trying to proceed forward. The moon is waning, headed for the dark balsamic phase after all, needing acceptance and release of past before starting the new. A reality check could take place either from circumstances or others in your life presenting obstacles and challenges before you. On the other hand, the hard feelings reflected by Saturn around Oct 8 and 9 could be your own inner authority asking you to check in with the bigger picture of things. You see, the Virgo energy has a grounded narrow focus but Saturn in Sagittarius is asking for you to commit to something that perhaps is bigger than just your own plans or short term focus, going big, but bringing that grand idea down to earth. The events around this time need to be thought of in the wider bigger picture while still taking action on the little details that will make it all happen. Apply this info to whatever this is referring to, for you personally. Don’t let fears and inhibitions get in the way of you going after what you want if you happen to face challenges around this time. The problem, if there is one, will pass quickly within a few days. Check in with the feelings that come up, for better self-understanding. Accept and release negativity these few days. When the tough energy passes it will be time for the Libra new moon which has some powerful creative aspects allowing even greater progress and new developments for the next lunar cycle that will be one of the most transformative in the short term that we have seen in a while. The eclipses changes us over the next year but this Libra new moon will give many opportunities with others in very grounded practical ways that makes life better for all involved. I’ll be posting about that later in the week. Until then, stay conscious and see if you can notice the change of energy I’m talking about here starting afternoon on Oct 8 until the new moon on Oct 12. 

Let me know if you need any personal insight about your own situation.
