“Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change.”
― Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, Frankenstein
The Libra New Moon peaks 21° of Libra on Saturday October 14th at approximately 10:54 AM MST.
A New Moon is the beginning of a lunar cycle.
It is a time to go within, listen to your intuition and allow new ideas to form.

A Solar Eclipse happens when, at just the right moment, the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth.
A Solar Eclipse occurs during a New Moon and symbolizes a Massive Reset!
This particular Libra Solar Eclipse is an Annular Eclipse, where you can see a ring of fire around the Sun.
Here in Phoenix, Arizona we will experience a partial annular solar eclipse peaking at about 9:31AM MST that will look something like this click here. (Please do not attempt to look directly at the sun without special eclipse glasses.)
Eclipses tend to accelerate us forward on our life path, which can leave us feeling a little overwhelmed or uncertain. Make sure to take a deep breath or several.
Eclipses are like portals to a higher and more aligned version of our soul, and through their energy, we can leap forward into the next chapter of our soul path.
We plant seeds during the New Moon and harvest the fruits of our labor during the Full Moon.
The Sun in Libra is illuminating themes surrounding Relationships & Equality and the luna is reflecting these themes back to us.
After all, the moon reflects the sun’s light.
Allow the New Moon Solar Eclipse to assist you in releasing anything that is holding you back, especially concerning Relationships & Boundaries.
Now is the time to get clear on what decisions you need to make in order to find a balance in your life.
