New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra

On Wednesday, October 2, we experience a New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra at 1:49pm CDT. This New Moon closes out eclipse season, and this Solar Eclipse amplifies the new beginnings we typically experience with New Moons. This is an invitation to get in touch with our intuition, be clear about what we’re calling into our lives, and to find alignment. 

Occurring in Libra, the sign of balance and harmony, this eclipse is all about our connections with other people, and seeking understanding. In order to strengthen our connections with others, we must first prioritize self-love. This is an opportunity to consider whether we are honoring the promises we’ve made to ourselves, and whether the way we’re living our lives is aligned with the values we hold.

During this New Moon, we may feel called to reassess our relationships, and reflect on how the people in our lives value us. Do the commitments we’ve made over the past couple of years support our growth? There may be a sense of restlessness, frustration, or defensiveness - any disagreements within relationships may indicate a need to set boundaries or resolve conflicts.

As we navigate the last few days of this eclipse season, we are called to step back and listen with an open mind. At times we may feel like we need to take action to get out of this energy, but it is important to find balance within ourselves before making any hasty decisions. Pay attention to shifts in energy, and check in on your own emotional regulation. It can feel like decisions made during this time have the power to transform your life, so remember that action is more effective when it comes from an aligned, peaceful place.
