The New Moon in Libra is occurred on October 16, 2020 around 4 pm EST. It’s in the sign of Libra. Libra is ruled by the planet Venus. Venus is the sign of love, beauty, relationships.

Every new moon gives us the opportunity of ‘starting over’ or of declaring those wishes/intentions that we would like to manifest in the coming month or in 6 months (when the New Moon occurs again in the sign of Libra).

Each New Moon encourages us to focus on something pertaining to that astrological sign, in this case, Libra. Libra is about balance, justice, discernment. It’s also about love and relationships. It’s a time when we need to look at how each relationship impact us. Are they loving or are they draining? Are we contributing positive vibes within our relationships or are we the ones creating the drama? There needs to be a balance (Libra is the symbol of the scales).

Take a look at your relationships with others and see where there may be imbalances. Nurture those relationships that are important to you. Create new relationships with those who can help you balance your own energy. Collaboration is a huge theme during this new moon. If you are working on something heavy, and I mean something that takes up a lot of time along with a lot of physical and mental energy, then reach out for help. Use the energy of the new moon to manifest that working ‘partnership’,

Another thing to look at, and probably the most important thing, is the relationship that we have with ourselves. Yes, that’s right, the relationship with ‘me’. How are you treating yourself? Are you talking to yourself nicely? Are you taking time to take care of your physical self? The relationship that we have with ourselves far exceeds the importance of relationships with others. I found our the hard way during my younger years when I would put the needs of my then partners first. The scales tipped so much that I lost myself. Eventually, I found myself, got on the spiritual path and life got better.

Don’t forget that with every new moon we have a chance to write down our wishes. Write down what you 'want' to have in your life regarding relationships, beauty in and around you, relationships and inner peace.
