Thursday's New Moon phase, and the beginning of this Moon cycle, begins at 1:12 p.m. MDT at the celestial longitude of 26 degrees of Libra 35'. Continuing the theme of Libra from the Venus-Moon Star Gate timing of October 17th (at 04 degrees Libra 33') the Sun and Moon (aka the New Moon) together bring forth balance of Vitality (Sun) and Emotions (Moon).
Libra's themes, being a cardinal air sign, of initiating something NEW within relationships / partnerships, the close 1-on-1 conversations and "getting to know you!" aspects of relating with others will be key this Moon cycle.
As I look at the chart for this cycle, I see the Ruler of this New Moon - Venus, our Desire Body - she rules both Libra and Taurus. The Taurus part of Venus helps us learn to create things on our own, with our own skills and tools and all experiences we bring to the table, as the unique individuals that we are. My choices, my needs, my vision, my goals, my creativity.
Within Libra, we swap the ME for the WE - what can WE create, together? Do we want to create together? Or are we ships that pass in the night, here for a reason, not a season or a lifetime? Can we share our skills, talents, personal resources to create something that is MORE than the two of us?
The other planetary players within Libra for this Moon cycle are:
Venus - the Desire Body -teaches us to be autonomous AND how to be the unique individual AND be in relationship with another/others. While attracting our Desires, learning the lessons these Desires bring (mainly due to whether or not the Desire was Ego-chosen or Soul-chosen or a bit of both!) through the people in our relationships/partnerships. What are your heartfelt Desires, truly?
Vesta, one of the feminine aspects of Venus, an asteroid - Vesta brings forth concentrated focus, sometimes to the point of being a workaholic (!). She was the Keeper of the Flame within the Hearth/Home. Here we 'see' what we love to devote our time and energy to, how we liberate ourselves despite our fears (i.e. change, eh?) and to what lengths we'll go to protect ourselves and others from harm.
Moon/Sun as New Moon - our vital energy and emotional natures will be balanced and harmonized in some regard this Moon cycle. Right now we're standing in the dark, like a dormant seed, not quite understanding what is in store for us this Moon cycle. As the Moon waxes and the Sun slowly moves further away from the Moon, we will 'see' more clearly, by Full Moon, how the balancing and harmonizing will develop for each of us. That dormant seed at New Moon has become a full blown flower - illuminating an inner Self growth factor that lay hidden in the dark before now. I wonder what you'll be illuminating for yourself this Moon cycle?
As we Desire our desires, and move our focus onto those desires, we will illuminate all or a portion of those desires into the Full Moon's light (November 3rd in Taurus!) and will 'see' what our TRUE Desires, within relationship/partnership, truly were to begin with! You may think you know, as of the New Moon. It will be interesting what you reveal to yourself by Full Moon! Ha! I love Astrology! There's always a learning curve, a curve ball coming out of left field so to speak! Our Ego-self thinks it knows FOR SURE what it will be, right now. Just you wait
!
Returning to the Venus as ruler of Taurus and Libra - interesting how we begin with the WE aspect of relationship and then the big reveal (!) at Full Moon is within the ME aspect of relationship. What does this mean? It means, grasshopper, you will truly Know Thyself at Full Moon - who you are and what you Desire - within your relationships/partnerships. How well YOU show up for You within them. Are you totally HERE when you're with so-and-so and not so much with what's-his-name? Why? What's different? Why hold yourself back with some, but not others?Â
Hhhmmm...safety and security issues (Venus-Moon Star Gate within the Root Chakra) we'll be releasing those distortions too. Who in your life triggers the issues of survival/stability, your physical needs living here on Earth, your sense of safety? How do they trigger them? So if you don't feel safe around these people or within the relationship / partnership, will you stand tall, in your power, no matter what? Or hide yourself, becoming small an insignificant? Trust issues abound, of Self and the Other. Without Trust, we have fear, anxiety, insecurity, lack of self-esteem/confidence. Interesting that Taurus rules our values, self-esteem/confidence, how well we embrace all of who we are and bring to the table.
Sitting opposite the New Moon (Moon/Sun in Libra) are Eris and Uranus, both Rx (Retrograde) within another cardinal sign, Aries, spiritual fire. Eris was discovered in this century, and reflects the Warrior Princess archetype, battling for liberation, freeing us from the rigid gender roles we've had until now. Anything we've IGNORED as a need/desire towards being our TRUE AUTHENTIC Self, will be revealed at some point this Moon cycle.Â
Uranus brings the Unexpected! Ruler of Aquarius, he demands to be Truly ME - rebel with a cause at times. With both Eris and Uranus Rx - the usual outward moving energies are turned Within - personalizing and hitting home, truly, that which we've been ignoring as a TRUE aspect of Self. Your true aspect, my true aspect...and within Aries, the Inner Explorer/Warrior, at times leaping before thinking (oops!) instinctual movement forward. Aries is ruled by Mars, the brother of Eris! So the FEMININE aspect of how to stand in your power, stand up for yourself against bullies, stand up for something that means something to YOU. This is what will unfold this Moon cycle.
We also have a Fire Grand Trine formation between Saturn in Sagittarius, North Node in Leo and again, Eris Rx + Uranus Rx in Aries. Lots of fiery Action, spiritually inspired, to move forward. Words spoken (remember the air of Libra!) written and thought - will spur further action, conversation and thought. Over and over. Cool. The North Node beckons us to move forward WITH Heart, and heartfully, while supporting Self, with the truth of what we truly Desire (Venus).
One last item to note: The South Node (brings forth unresolved issues from the past, and where we'd rather reside (aka our Ego-self) vs. moving forward upon a new path beckoning us, soulfully, via the North Node) resides in Aquarius, ruled by Uranus, and these two truly want to BE Authentic as much as possible! Any issues of NOT being authentic Within Self brings forth distortions, incomplete information (aka lies) and missteps forward, no matter how heartfelt the intentions. Both the North and South Nodes have been in Leo/Aquarius since May 10th, 2017. How have you been doing, so far, with the themes of heartfully supporting self while resolving issues of NOT being truly You along the way?
Hhhmmm...more of this too shall be revealed, healed and let go of, by the next Balsamic Moon phase.
NAMASTE
