Libra New Moon Miniscopes
Libra New
Moon Miniscopes
Harmony Through Conflict.
The New Moon in Libra 17º falls on October 10th at 11:50 AM ET.
There comes a point where we have to reckon with how we connect with others and ourselves. What sort of relationships have we cultivated? What are our expectations? What are our needs? The New Moon in Libra is perfect for this. It gracefully walks in and takes a seat; it brings with it a need to look at how we conduct ourselves in our interactions. Do we make ourselves small? Do we concede in the face of conflict? Libra is the sign of everything fair and just, so part of this lunation is asking for us to create more equity in our lives. We can balance expectation with desire, need with want, and you with me.
This lunation shows us that reflections are all around us. What we bring into our relationships is what we get, and vice versa. Thus, we are learning to see our actions differently, from a new vantage point – from the view of what or who is standing right in front of us. What can you see from this place? We could create a new sense of awareness and understanding just by the willingness to put ourselves in someone else’s shoes. To see outside of ourselves, means to be expanded beyond the belief that life is ever just singular.
Venus rules this lunation, having just descended into the underworld. And no, I don’t mean only in Scorpio, but instead its retrograde. Venus is slowly backtracking its way through our relationship with depth and intimacy. That means that in order to progress, we have to first be willing to regress. There is perspective in the retrospective. Venus will square Mars in Leo tightly, calling on our need to rediscover motivation or action from a point of tension. The discomfort that we can feel only is a means of growth and choosing to shift outside of convention. If we keep doing what we have always done, then we will never know what beautiful moments can come from taking a risk. If Mars is supposed to bring the heat, let it — and let it be the means by which you set your comfort zones on fire. Retrogrades call on us to reflect and do something differently, here is your first chance to make that happen.
Mars will be empowered by Saturn, adding strategy and longevity to our initiations now. The beginnings matter. You may have to find energy to sustain, but we have the fortitude to do so. Of course, this will perfect the following week, but the build up is palpable. It reminds us that we are not innocent bystanders to our lives. We are reclaiming where we have lost our fire, our power, our sovereignty. As Jupiter sextiles the New Moon, this energy only expands. We are reckoning, looking for a reset. Let’s not forget that Libra is the sign of justice. It is time to rebalance the scales, make decisions that better you and those around you. This means that conflict can be a means of harmony. We are not quite demure or cutesy at this New Moon, instead we are wielding weapons of truth — cutting out the excess as a means of finding what truly matters. What is real, what is authentic, that is what remains.
This lunation is anything but liminal. Sure Venus is retrograde, but that just means that we take matters into our own hands. Tact may be out the window, but it is replaced with pointed clarity. Of course, that clarity may mean that multiple things can feel true at once. Libra does have the art of nuance. It reminds us that when one decision is made, another isn’t taken away. Reject the notion that you have to exist in the “either/or.” Indecision will be an enemy to your growth. Magic happens when we find the “yes and” in life and opt to just choose anything and see where it takes us.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 12º to 22º, you will feel the effects of this New Moon the most. Especially those with strong Cardinal placements. So, let’s break this down by sign! Always read Sun, Moon, and Rising — But Read your RISING first!
ARIES TO CANCER
Aries & Aries Rising
Since this season is your polarity, there is a push and pull now. The scales can’t be tipped now, Aries. You are recalibrating, re-orienting. But in order to do that, you have to allow yourself to know how to ask for help, to exist in the give and take. You are independent, sure, but there is only so much you can do on your own. You are at a place of needing others, and there is nothing wrong with that.
This New Moon may have your mind on your relationship, others in your life, and close connections. How are things faring for you? Some of you may seek to bring a relationship or partnership to the next level, while others may decide to walk away from one. Keep in mind that this can be non-romantic. The 7th House rules over all one-on-one relationships. This means that this New Moon isn’t one for solitary action. You are witnessing how your life is intertwined with those around you. What you do has consequences and vice versa. You are seeing how important connections are and how others can increase your sense of self-awareness. The idea of reciprocity becomes big for you around this time. You are called to pay attention to how you exchange energy with those around you. Who takes too much? Who doesn’t? Where do you need to maintain boundaries? Where can you be more flexible? Where can you give more now?
With Venus taking the helm of this lunation, we are now in the descent of our deeper wells. Our psyches, inner desires, and personal transformations get a review — perhaps even a bit of a makeover. As Venus and Mars tense up, you may find that your need for play is pushed up against your need for intimacy. These two things aren’t at odds as much as it may seem. Staying present and being curious will invite creativity into your private world. Healing isn’t always about communing with your darkness. It can be about getting acquainted with your inner child. If you are feeling aggravated or fired up, use that as a way to break the mold and try something new in your life instead of running on the same old hamster wheel.
Use this New Moon to focus on your boundaries. Understand the roles that you play in others’ lives and what they play in yours. See where you can receive and know what you have to give. Form new relationships and bury old ones that don’t support you. Seek out ways to create a better relationship with yourself above all else. Nothing will ever be as solid as the love you can give to yourself.
Taurus & Taurus Rising
They say that the body keeps the score, and honestly Taurus, that is true for you now more than ever. You are really getting a firsthand experience on your corporal limits. What makes you feel tight in the chest? Stressed in the body? Overwhelmed for your nervous system? Slow it down a bit. Connect with your needs, not your wants. Desire is good, but can’t be sustained without your fundamental foundations.
The New Moon will turn your attention to your 6th House. So, this can be a great time to get your health together and place priority on your own basic, core non-negotiables. You may find that you are very busy around this lunation, so ensure that you are taking the proper time to rest. The 6th House has a tendency to put on more responsibility than we anticipate. Emphasis on our labor, skills, and trade show up. Details matter, so you are probably noticing that you’re going back and combing through work you thought should have been completed by now. Alternatively, you could be really trying to get a project completed — out the door and done. It likely needs more time. Don’t rush. Work/life balance is required as one of the big focuses of the 6th House is how you can update, change, or restructure your own routines and daily rituals. If you have something going on health-wise or just need a check-up, schedule it for around now! This New Moon will help you!
Venus, your ruler, leads this lunation, and its retrograde is doing all of that review I have mentioned in the previous paragraph. You may feel like you are waiting on someone else to make a decision or help facilitate change in your life. The external feels muddy, which is why you are called to get more in touch with what matters for you on a personal level. Mars will square Venus, pushing demands on you from the homefront. Your private life is livelier than you’d like, and there may even be some conflicts boiling with loved ones and family members. The tension is loud as you seek to find more balance and mutually beneficial outcomes. Just be aware of what you are sacrificing to create “peace”. Sure, compromise is important, but that doesn’t mean conceding to evade an issue.
Use this New Moon to bring everything together. See how the small things in your life impact everything else. Pay attention to your body and work on making amends with how you may have abused it in the past. Work on getting healthier — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Look for opportunities for growth in your work, daily life, and routines. Be flexible. See that perfection is not the goal — the process teaches us more than the outcome. Work on taking care of yourself.
Gemini & Gemini Rising
Let’s have a little fun, shall we? You are craving, no, drooling at the prospect of living a more enjoyable life. In some ways, that feeling is insatiable. You want to let loose and feel less bound by obligation and responsibility. Maybe it isn’t as hard as you think. Maybe you need to get out of your own head and into your body. If you want to play, play. Don’t feel like you need to weigh your options when joy is an inherent right.
In so many ways, this feels like the perfect time to get re-inspired. We are turning a new leaf in the 5th House. Now is the time to engage with your inner child and be open to possibility. What do you find pleasure in? What makes you happy? Let’s try diving in with both feet and find the space where you can live on the brighter side of life. Your creativity will be at a peak, and it will be as if a bountiful life force is flowing from you! This also invites you to bring passion, excitement, and a little adventure back into your life. This lunation can be super thrilling for you if you lean into it. Because this is a place of creation, some of you may be at the wheel of something entirely new: a project, art, music, relationship, or even the conception of a child. Alternatively, consider this New Moon a chance for you to sit in the spotlight a bit. It is ok to be recognized for your efforts and to celebrate your successes.
With Venus retrograde in the driver’s seat, what’s old is new again. So possibly in the process of curating, creating, and making, you need to go back to go forward. Sounds thrilling, I am sure, but it can actually be helpful. Pick something up off the ground and make it more relevant. Venus and Mars will square, so watch for impulse. There is a bit of limitation or resistance now. For you this may show up in how much you are taking on and what you are agreeing to. You have a tendency to go all in for a short period of time, but what happens if you elongate and allow yourself a more sustainable way of keeping something alive? By biting off more than you can chew, if even for a little bit, you may end up doing more bodily harm than good. Approach life with a little bit of caution, curiosity, and a slower pace. This will allow an interest, project, or relationship to have more depth and longevity.
Use this New Moon to find new ways to have fun. Follow your heart more and listen to your inner child. Seek new ways to engage in pleasure and creativity. Let loose. If you are looking to conceive (a child, a project or anything), let this lunation be the thing that pushes you to start or get more focused on it. Anything that pulls at your heart will be favored. So really get in touch with what you desire most.
Cancer & cancer Rising
You are coming home, my friend, in more ways than one. Your foundations, your roots, your depth/capacity all get a closer look. It may be good to scrutinize what makes you feel safe, and if those things or tools are accessible to you. You don’t have to wait to find a sanctuary or place to rest your bones, you can make it. What will it take to create the private life you need to flourish out in the world?
The New Moon sits at the very bottom of your chart in the 4th House. Here, the attention will turn to your inner world, your foundations…your roots. Perhaps renovations, redecorating, or reorganizing are on the docket. Maybe you are in search of a dream home or wanting to make your space feel more harmonious. Some of you may be finding more quiet time or family time, while seeking solitude after a busy few months. Whatever it is, you are bringing it all back to your center. Home is where the heart is. Family (given or chosen) could take a central focus as there may be changing dynamics in this area of your life. You will be redefining what family truly is, or what it means to you. You may be putting down stronger roots and focusing on your emotional well-being. This lunation tells you all of that work isn’t for nothing. You can rejoice in the power you may call back and honor the peace you will create. Connect more deeply with your ancestors and get in touch with what truly matters to you.
As Venus lords over this lunation, it backtracks and regresses. It pulls you more inward to rediscover what makes you feel alive, creative, and full of zest. This happens in the underbelly, through deepening your devotion to your self-expression, authenticity, and personal joy. Of course, this means you may be outgrowing something in the process of coming back to yourself. Mars will square Venus, pushing you beyond outdated values or ideas. You are reckoning with how valuable you feel or how you see your self-worth. If you are feeling under-resourced, its time for a change. Pressures around money or reserves can catalyze you, stretching you to find creative solutions or to utilize your natural talents differently. Don’t be afraid to go bolder. Ask yourself if you are living up to your full potential, and if the answer is no, then how can you?
Use this New Moon to settle in and come back to center. Focus on your roots and your family. Find security in your emotional foundations and create a sanctuary for yourself. Find peace in the quiet. Work on things around the house and spruce up your space. If you want to move, this lunation could give you the boost you need to find the right place! It is all coming together now.
LEO TO SCORPIO
Leo & Leo Rising
They say that your thoughts become your truth. So what truth do you choose to believe about yourself? You can treat yourself kinder, with more respect. And no, you don’t need my permission to do so, but sometimes just hearing (or reading) it is enough to receive. Try exercises that expand your mind and get you to think outside of the box. Consider this a chance to do a little energy clearing of the mind.
The New Moon falls in your 3rd House where you are tasked to learn, adapt, and integrate. This is about how you communicate not only what you are saying — but also what you are hearing. Part of shifting your perspective comes through dialogue and the conversations that you have with others. To step outside of negative self-thought, we have to be willing to engage in thoughtful conversations that push back against your self-limiting beliefs. Remember, your voice is your power. Now, it is time to learn how to use it. Through the 3rd House, we learn to express ourselves and say what is on our minds. Sharing is an integral part of your personal exploration — and how you choose to share is important. There can be a feeling of people inundating you with messages around the New Moon. Perhaps you may hear news that you have been waiting for! You can start a new journey for yourself by applying the skills you have in new ways. Your local community will figure strongly as well, especially those close to you. They are here to uplift you and support you, but they won’t know what you need unless you tell them. Asking for help isn’t weak – especially if it is meant to help you grow.
With Venus retrograde taking center stage at this New Moon, we are slowly taking a few steps back. For you, this goes down to your core — your foundations are getting more love. There is little concern about your projections and more emphasis on the reality of who you are and what you are rooted in. This only stands to be more true as Mars and Venus will square. Tensions between what you want to keep private and how that informs your authenticity arise. We can’t hide the most vulnerable parts of ourselves, even if we try. The exposure of our intimate natures can be a wake up call, one that pushes you to show up differently in your life. Don’t allow anyone to weaponize your insecurities. Instead, take ownership of your softness and see it as your strength and motivator. To be honest, true, is to exist without fear of what others may think of your self-perceived fragility.
Use this lunation to speak your magic into the world. Communication is key, and your words hold more power than they have in a long time. Don’t be afraid to tell others what you are thinking, but also be open to what they have to say. Create important dialogue and have those tough conversations. Be flexible and adapt to the ever-changing tides in life. You are being asked to integrate your experiences and open yourself up to new possibilities.
Virgo & Virgo Rising
You don’t get enough credit for how flexible you are. I mean that. You, more than most, know how to meet needs effortlessly and without little notice. You weave in demands and responsibilities into your daily life without much thought or preparation. You just show up. You resource. However, now you are being asked to look closely at the resources you have or carry. What is left for you at the end of the day? Sure, support is a gift, but not if it is only exercised externally without receiving anything in return.
This New Moon is in your 2nd House, so your focus can be turned toward your resources. Are you being valued for your work? What is your compensation like, even outside of income? Some of you may be looking for a raise, promotion, or change to your financial picture. Use this lunation to push that forward for you. The Moon is gracious in Libra, so it is working to showcase your negotiating spirit! Remain grounded in your approach, but charge ahead knowing that you can grow an abundant garden from all that you decide to plant. Another major theme will be personal value. You are asked to own every facet of your talents and your experience. Notice what comes easy, what feels natural — this is where you will be most abundant. You don’t need to work so hard to achieve the success you desire. You are inherently worthy. Know that you, more than most, are deserving of getting what you put out in the world.
Of course, you are still rethinking, reconsidering, or renegotiating the terms of your value (if even internally). You can’t help it. You may underscore the importance of what you provide. Venus is retrograde and rules over the New Moon emphasizing the “re” of it all. But what if instead of re-evaluating the terms of your worth, you instead re-evaluated how to resource your worth. Now may be a time to be ok with asking for help. I know this can be a bit foreign for you, and even may create some inner tension as Mars will square Venus. You could be desiring some self-isolation or looking to evade needing support, when in reality, community is what will give you the most reprieve. Honestly, even talking things out or being bold enough to start a difficult conversation will help you find more harmony in your world. Step outside the escapism and call in those closest to you.
Use this New Moon to focus on the ground you stand on. What do you value? When was the last time you showed yourself respect? Seek out ways to show yourself that you can rely on yourself. Build a greater space for personal security and understand the value of owning every aspect of your own humanity. Find new resources and open up doors for working through financial stress and abundance. There’s no scarcity in the world you have created for yourself now.
Libra & Libra Rising
The astrology of 2026 has been a mixed bag, and I know it feels no different now. You are thrust into the spotlight, put on display — visible, vulnerable, witnessed, perceived. In some ways, it can be exhilarating for you. In other ways, it leaves you feeling depleted. The duality of being represented by the scales is the constant push and pull you feel. But you are allowed to validate yourself, your desires, and your hope to be recognized. There is no better time than the present either.
This lunation falls in your 1st House, bringing you back to your place in this world. Who are you? What do you want? What makes you tick? You may have been trying things out or are in search of ways to expand or grow. This New Moon will give you a chance to find what will work for you and what won’t. You get to decide how you live your life and make strides in building a new you. Now is the time to be unapologetically yourself. Celebrate your individuality. Take pride in where you are right now. What inspires you? What fuels you? What makes you energized? You feel seen, heard, and understood. This is a halfway point between a cycle that began for you during the Libra Full Moon. Partly, the ask here is that you do what feels right to you. You can begin again and set yourself up for future success, but first, this may require a little introspection. Alternatively, some of you are very visible right now. How are you handling that sort of light? Are you willing to step into it more?
Venus is your ruler, and the ruler of this New Moon, slowly making its way back to your sign. However before it does that, it has you thinking differently about what you have and the values you hold. It is ok to outgrow parts of yourself, especially ideas or philosophies you once centered your identity on. By removing these outdated pieces, you create space to embrace a future version of yourself — one that isn’t fully formed yet. The tension of greeting the present and the future is one that lives rent free in your life right now. In some ways, you are on the precipice of something bigger — more magnificent — even if you can’t see it yet. Reinforced by the Venus/Mars square, you may feel unsatisfied or even aggravated with the “waiting” for change to come. But perhaps you don’t need to wait at all. Simple steps can be taken to make your visions a reality. You may need a little help, too. Be careful of conflating money with possibility. Sure, it helps, but there are resources that are greater than a piece of paper.
Use this New Moon to focus on yourself. Work on discovering new pieces of your identity and releasing parts of you that no longer serve you. Be fueled by your desires and passions, and run with your ideas. Motivation is key. You can make anything you want come to fruition, especially as the doors swing open just for you. Stand in your power. Embrace the spotlight. Own every facet of your being. This is the start of something good!
Scorpio & Scorpio Rising
You are in isolation mode, pulling all the way back, communing with your subconscious self. Of course, this is not something you are stranger to, as you thrive in the explorations of your own profundity. However, there is a bit of differentiation here. You, although the sovereign of the shadow, may not be aware of just how much you are doing internally or behind the scenes. Part of your own motives and actions are obscured — and that mystery is where the magic happens.
This New Moon is in your 12th House. The 12th House is about endings and the closing of a cycle. You are being called to be deliberate — slowly, surely pausing. It is time for rest. The Sun energizes your need to be good to yourself, and the Moon ensures that this is done through relaxation and rejuvenation – a time for checking in with your spiritual and emotional health. You also are bringing so much to fruition now. Even in the chaos, you are finding clarity. You navigate through the shadows with true power, but it doesn’t make the act of doing it any less difficult. If you are feeling uneasy, know that resolution is on its way. Consider this your calm before the storm in a sense. What you do out of the view of others is important. You are turning inward and focused on preserving your energy. You know you will be expending a lot of it soon, so take it easy. Dive deep into the void.
With Venus retrograde ruling this New Moon, the message is loud and clear to internalize. It is in your sign, so you are backtracking through ideas, feelings, moments, or agreements from the last several weeks. You are calling on your desires, your hopes, your dreams. Are you aligned with them? A part of you is getting exposed, as Mars moves through your 10th House along with Jupiter and the South Node. This almost ruptures your total isolation. Venus and Mars square exactly, pushing a false narrative around urgency. You may feel the need to act, do something, or be thrust out into the open. Don’t fall for the trap. Don’t take the bait. Make your moves in silence, stealth mode. Let the outcomes of your action speak louder than the action itself. Surmounting pressures at work or in the more public spaces in your life will leave you depleted. All I can say is, know your limits.
Use this New Moon to withdraw a bit where you can. Find more peace in everyday life — including work/life balance. Take time to rest and recharge. Tie up loose ends and close doors that need to be shut. Re-engage with yourself, replenish your energy, and enjoy downtime (by creating it). Listen to your intuition more and record your dreams. This is an opportunity for you to truly let go and open yourself up to something greater.
SAGITTARIUS TO PISCES
Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising
What does it take to dream big? Sure, you are visionary and aspirational, but that doesn’t always mean you know how to get where you want to go. Being progressive or future-oriented means staying ahead of the curve — i.e. having courage to do what is unconventional and being true to yourself, not expectation. But it doesn’t mean you have to go in on it alone. Finding people who share in your visions makes the process of achieving them easier — both collectively and individually.
At this lunation, you could be closing a door to open a new one. Perhaps there are negotiations around what you thought your future was going to be and the reality of what it will take to get there. However, you are making space for a new future that is opening more opportunities for you than you had initially considered. This is a shift in perspective. With this lunation hanging out in your 11th House, you will be looking at your connections and friends as a path forward — not just for you, but all of you. Honestly, this is a social house, so you may even just want to catch up with people, feeling a little more talkative or outgoing than normal. You are realizing that community is becoming increasingly important to you, and you may be trying to find where you want to align yourself. Budding friendships become lasting ones, and old friends are showing up left and right. Bask in this! People are showing you love, and you deserve that. Support seems like magic. Rely on your friends to help you. Don’t be afraid of what is to come, and try not to have all the answers. Part of the perfection of life is that it is unfolding.
Venus is the lord of this New Moon, and it is moving backward through the quietest part of your chart. It slowly pulls you into the deepest, darkest trenches of your inner world to get you to be more clear about your motives in life — hidden or otherwise. Things you once thought were resolved now come back up, but not as a means to destabilize you, instead as a way of reminding you of how far you have come. You are finding true closure, true peace. As Venus and Mars square, there can be tension in idealism. We have dreams, goals, but we also are put up against our fears. What happens if we fail? What if we don’t actually live up to our potential? Here’s the reality, you will fail, but not because you aren’t good enough. It is because it is normal to fail. That failure brings you success. Living up to your potential means taking the risk on that potential to start with. Sabotaging an idea or desire before it ever has a chance to breathe is what kills potential. If you want to go after the visions you have, be willing to risk it all to make it happen, and welcome failure as a part of the journey.
Use this New Moon to call on your community. Ask for support where necessary and seek out new methods of networking. Focus on your friendships and nurture the ones that prove to strengthen you. Look at your goals, your future, your hopes. What do you want out of the next five years? Three years? Who can help you get there? How can you make this happen? These are questions to reflect on — just remember to not let your dreams die. Keep the faith alive.
Capricorn & Capricorn Rising
You really are that girl (gender nonspecific) right now. Like seriously, you are being reminded of your authority, your power. And no, not in a way that allows you to exercise them over others, but instead reacquainting them with yourself. You are coming back to what matters for you in your life and what goals you want to align yourself to. Obviously by doing this, people are going to take notice. You may even inspire others to do the same. You are influential, no doubts about it.
The New Moon is in your 10th House, and you are out in the open for all to see. Very practically speaking, there can be talks around a promotion, work recognition, or change in what you do that will leave you feeling more confident. You are shifting your focus from vision to commitment — ideas to long-term goals. Matters of ‘what you are known for’ and ‘where you want to go’ will come up. It seems that you have been dreaming up what you desire, and now this lunation is giving you a chance to take steps toward that dream. You may also feel just generally a bit busier than normal. The most important piece with a New Moon in your 10th House is that you are quite visible. People are recognizing you, seeing you, perceiving you. You may have to release an expectation around the ideas of work ethic or value through your work, as well. You are becoming more aware of your direction and what you want. Alternatively, some of you may make discoveries about your passions that drive you into a new field or up the ladder into a new role/position. Whatever it is, you are stepping into a new era.
But stepping out and up doesn’t come without some inner work. Venus rules this New Moon, and it is retrograde through Scorpio. You are in need of a perspective shift, thinking outside of the box and looking at your long-term plans differently. The future you thought you wanted may not be lining up, so what about the future you actually want? Friendships and community connections are also under review. As Venus and Mars square, there could be conversations around intimacy in terms of the company you keep. Secrets are short-lived and conflicts may arise with those closest to you. This isn’t meant to cut people out or sever ties, instead it is meant to deepen bonds and ask you to find power in vulnerable interactions. If you want to be part of a larger network or a good community member, you must be willing to do the hard work and ask that others do the same. You may not share all the same values, but you can find the right ones that inspire collective action and sustainable efforts.
Use this New Moon to focus on your career and your life direction. Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there. Be noticed and seek opportunities that make you more visible. Call the shots and show your leadership qualities. Strive for new goals and scale ever-higher mountains. Enjoy the fruits of your labor and relish in your successes. See the power within you and let that be what pushes you into the next phase of your life. You are moving toward such great things.
Aquarius & Aquarius Rising
I know the saying is “go big or go home”, but what if you just went big? What if going home wasn’t an option? Rejection is a redirection and betting on yourself is the only way you will ever embrace your honest potential. This means having the gusto and confidence to just leap — no looking back. The spontaneity, thrill, and adventure of just going for what you want will never be without some sort of reward.
With this New Moon in your 9th House, you are actively growing and trying new things — hence the going big analogy! You are taking the experience you have had (or want to have) and applying it future-forward. Now is a time to be bold and optimistic about the journey that lies ahead. The Moon will make sure that you are courageous in your approach while remaining open to the beautiful changes that life can bring. Flexible structures. Expansive ideas. Open doors. Here, you will see that your world is shifting, but only because you choose to think differently about it. The 9th House is about limitless potential, where perspective is everything. You will likely see your goals more clearly than you have in a long time and thus change your priorities in achieving them. Nothing is too far out of reach. All it takes is a little faith. So why not just put all you are into what you want?
With Venus retrograde as the leader of this New Moon, you are seeing how your goals and desires can align. You are more willing to be public about your need to reassess what matters to you and put your faith in the process. Old projects, collaborators, and business deals may come back around. All of this as a means of reminding you what you are good at and the greater impacts you have. Of course, this doesn’t come without a little discourse. Venus and Mars square, building tensions in a close one-on-one relationship. Maybe a partner or close friend is acting out of character or maybe there is a competitor trying to step on your toes. Sometimes, we need that sort of conflict to get our creative juices flowing. You know, as well as anyone, that there is room for all of us. So by staying in your own lane and keeping your eyes on your own prize, nothing will stop you. Don’t let one sour grape ruin the bunch. If a professional or personal relationship falls away, ask yourself if that is really the type of person you wanted in your life to begin with. The answer is probably no.
Use this New Moon to explore new places — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Challenge your perspective, open your mind, and reach beyond current limitations. Seek help to achieve your goals and put yourself out there to gain notoriety. There is so much happening around you. If you feel confused, take a step back and pull yourself out of the details. See the big picture and soon, you will know which path to take.
Pisces & Pisces Rising
The desire to hyperfixate and dive deep into a topic, memory, or idea is in full force. You are in the process of descending into your personal underworld, where you are reckoning with bad habits that keep you feeling stagnated. This means getting intimate with yourself, your needs, and what you crave. No stone is unturned, no door left closed, as you traverse through your own psyche. Hidden aspects of yourself emerge, as you come to find the magic you hold as you transmute old grief into creative energy.
This New Moon brings a fresh start to the cycles in your life. However, for you, this shift is felt so much more as your 8th House comes to focus. The 8th House rules intimacy, generational patterns, personal magic, shared resources, inherited qualities, death/beginnings, and the shadows. You are submerging into the abyss and are asked to confront what lies beneath the surface. Resilience is key as you walk through fire and ice to get to the core of what keeps you in your holding patterns. Like a Phoenix, you can rise again, burning brighter, faster, and hotter than ever before — but it may require a personal confrontation with your limitations first. Consider this a transformation and a metamorphosis for you. From the outside looking in, it may be hard for others to see you breaking down old structures and habits. The cycles are ending, and new ones are being established in their place. In the quiet contemplations of your inner depths, you now find more clarity than ever before. This is a chance to call back your power in a big way. Sounds easy, right?
If you are cycling, you are also recycling, as Venus retrogrades and rules this New Moon. Luckily, the early part of this retrograde falls in compatible Scorpio, having you place emphasis on your own visions, aspirations, and greater desires. You are being called to see things from a new point of view, stretching your perspective to the very margins of what you believe is possible. Maybe you haven’t realized your capacity is larger than you think. Maybe you haven’t given yourself enough credit. The mundane dealings of everyday life can feel like they may be getting in the way. Ask yourself what you really need to be responsible for and leave the rest behind for now, especially as Venus and Mars square. Not every ask needs a yes. Not every obligation is yours to assume. Knowing your material and corporal limits will allow you to hold some capacity for yourself and your aspirations. Don’t let your tendency for people-pleasing be a liability. Stay convicted in your personal boundaries, maybe even channeling any discomfort you feel into physical activity or a need to change your routines.
Use this New Moon to reflect on your growth and how you have transformed in the last year. Seek new resources. Get intimate with a partner or close relationship — even yourself. Focus on the power you hold personally, finding new ways of sharing who you are. Explore your depths, take hold of your fears, and no longer be held back by cyclic patterns that keep you trapped. This is about seeing new pathways that had once been hidden from view. You hold the keys.
