New Moon in Libra on 6th October 2021 – Rapid Change












We are coming up to the next New Moon occurring in a few days time on 6th October, and naturally it will be happening in the sign of Libra, the sign of relating with others, of equality and justice. There is a very interesting dynamic with this lunation that may see some quite dramatic turnarounds in our relationships, and you already may be starting to feel a shift that is occurring

The New Moon in Cancer on 10th July 2021 - Togetherness








We have just come through a New Moon in Cancer in the early hours this morning, so this is a lunation focused on emotion, caring, compassion and aimed at the circle of loved ones around us. I sense that it will foster a real sense of togetherness. This is also a New Moon where we will be looking to protect and secure what we have achieved not only in a personal sense but also on a wider more national level too. New Moons promote new starts and beginnings and if things have been a little rocky recently, then this new Moon will give a chance to start again, bring forward new initiatives and to make the sacrifices necessary to heal problems of the past.

This Week in Astrology - 5th until 11th July 2021 – Venus Takes The Spotlight




Hi everyone. The coming week in Astro terms is sort of a mirror image of last week, in so much as one of the inner planets enters the Saturn Uranus square to turn up the heat. Last week it was Mars in the mix, and this week Venus will be the star of the show.

The New Moon in Capricorn on 13th January 2021 - Inner change, before outer development.

 

Well what can you say? It's been a wild start to the new year, and now we come upon a New Moon in Capricorn that looks at first glance looks rather challenging. As you will know, New Moons are all about new beginnings, and the New Moon in Capricorn will look at the structure of our life, the responsibilities we have and the way we organise ourselves. Of course, in the past year I would imagine that this part of your life will have been turned completely upside down as the rampaging virus Covid-19 swept across the world and changed all of our futures forever. Even before I get into the details of this New Moon, it doesn't take much imagination to work out that the role of this New Moon will be to try and sort out what is functioning in our life, what our priorities are, how we should go about things, and how to make the best of the situation we find ourselves in.

The New Moon in Scorpio on 15th November – Making A Silk Purse Out Of A Sow's Ear


Hello everyone. It's a really busy time astrologically and the next act in the changing times that we are experiencing comes with the Scorpio New Moon tomorrow. Scorpio season is the most polarising one of all, as the battle for survival comes to a conclusion. For any Scorpio, their biggest fear is just this, survival, and any Scorpio will do literally anything to preserve what they have, and for it not to die. Paradoxically, change and rebirth is what any Scorpio absolutely needs, and as fixed and stubborn as they are, without transformation and change they would remain stuck permanently in the past. Scorpio is a water sign too, and so all Scorpios feel this fear deep in their soul, and it creates extreme worry and anxiety. Being a sign of strength though, they will never betray these feelings to anyone except their closest partners, and that is never a given anyway, lest it be a sign of weakness. That would never do for a Scorpio.

New Moon in Aquarius - Ready to go to the stars...



Tomorrow evening (UK time) there is going to be a New Moon in the sign of Aquarius. The water bearer sign is an air sign, it is fixed and is a bit of a contradiction in terms, but if you think about it it makes sense. The glyph of the sign is a stylised river or depiction of water and of course, air contains liquids in the forms of water vapour experienced by us all on earth in the forms of rain, hail and snow, if the atmospheric pressures and temperatures are correct. Those clouds held in the air also can create electricity causing thunder and lightning, synonymous with the sign of Aquarius. Aquarius represents the many, the community, the network and collaborative efforts of like minded people. It is a sign of rebellion, independence, of progression and doing one's own thing. As you will see, this signature New Moon will be incredibly apt in 2020.

Astrology of the Day – New Moon in Libra - Thursday 19th October 2017





The Moon remains in the sign of relating Libra and at 19.11 hrs GMT forms a conjunction with the Sun starting a brand new New Moon cycle. New Moons bring the opportunity to set a new path for yourself. In a way you can wipe the slate clean and start again under them, and in Libra, there is an urge to set things straight and to reset the balance now. If your life has become unbalanced or unhinged, now is a chance to tip things in a new direction.

The New Moon directly opposes Uranus and links into Saturn too therefore we have an opportunity to make a brand new start and to make dramatic changes, so long as we are prepared to also accept that we will have to graft, work hard and be in it for the long haul. There is a sense of independence and rebellion present here, and also a social conscience and humanitarian feeling too. Any long term kind of project that is community based, technical, scientific or aimed for the greater good of all is in my opinion very well starred now.

As for individual effect for this New Moon then if you know your Ascendant sign, (that’s related to the time that you were born) then it's arrival will affect you in the following ways…

Aries – The Libran new Moon lands directly in the part of your chart connected to relationship and partnerships matters. You may have to accept that your partner is seeing things in a new or different way to yourself and you might have to change your attitudes or realise that you need a fresh start, a bit more space and independence. This also applies to to your relationship with people who openly oppose your views.

Taurus – For you your attention should be linked to your health and welfare, so this may be a moment to consider your diet, habits and how you look after yourself. Your daily work and routine also come under scrutiny and how you relate to people at work might change, especially if new people come in or you yourself seek new work challenges or tasks to take on.

Gemini – This New Moon shines a light on your individual talents and you may find enjoyment from taking up new hobbies, or or just being creative. You might have to take a new attitude in relation to children, and in terms of love and affection a new romance or a restart to an existing relationship may be on the cards.

Cancer – For this New Moon it's all change at home and in your domestic situation, you may take up a new attitude towards your family or housemates, you may find the women in your life are a source of inspiration or disruption, there may be abrupt beginnings and endings that you have to deal with, and the chance to set a new course and start again may come to pass.

Leo – The New Moon affects the way you think, speak and communicate. Maybe being a little outspoken and thinking in a different way will help in the long run? You will be busy with unexpected calls on your time, and you may have to make off the cuff journeys and trips to new places. Why not try learning a new skill?

Virgo – Why not try and find a new way of earning money? You may feel like asking for a pay rise or going out and buying something that is a little different and unique. Being different and trusting your values will help your self-worth.

Libra – You'll feel more confident and willing to put yourself in the spotlight. Why not your appearance and try out a new style, a complete overhaul of the way you live may make you feel better and it will also help how you relate to others

Scorpio – This New Moon lands in the most hidden part of your chart and thus things connected to charity or working behind the scenes may be beneficial to you, as may finding your own personal space and peace away from the demands of everyday life. An unexpected sacrifice made could turn out to be the right decision in the end.

Sagittarius – The New Moon stimulates anything linked to group activities and social concerns and you may be getting more involved in situations where your particular talents come in useful for the greater good of everyone. Matters linked to friends are important too and why not start to cooperate with them to try and fulfil your hopes and dreams?

Capricorn – Work and career matters take on new importance and maybe you can make a real impression now on bosses and senior people through your unique approach to things. This full Moon also boosts how you are perceived in public and you may get noticed or find yourself in the spotlight in some way?

Aquarius – For you learning something new is what you will get out of this fresh lunar cycle. Your faith and belief systems will be tested and it would do you well you open your mind to new ways of seeing things. You may be involved with people who come from a different point of view or culture too. Unexpected travel plans may have to be activated, legal matters may be highlighted or situations connected to in-laws and extended families may come to light.

Pisces – The New Moon activates all issues connected to sharing, this could involve finances, other people's possessions and values, including those who you love. Intimate relationships can be a source of tension or joy now, and you may find that opening your mind to new experiences may freshen your relationship up. Secrets may come to light now or you may have to deal with people in positions of power and influence. Watch out for those who unexpectedly try to manipulate your point of view.

New Moon in Gemini - Assessing our options, overcoming restrictions and making choices...

 

Moon

On 25th May we will see a New Moon in the versatile sign of Gemini, at 4.46 degrees. Gemini is an air sign, the sign of information and communication, of flexibility, ingenuity and restlessness. Gemini souls are always on the go, and in the same way this New Moon should initiate a flurry of action. The phrase putting too many eggs in one basket is always a phrase I associate with Gemini, and here in lies a danger. Not that you won't act now, of course you will, but will you choose the right course of action, or will you spread your bets so thinly that you won't really be able to target exactly what you want in as focused a manner as you should? Gemini tends to cause us to play the field too much, instead of choosing the optimum way of doing things.

New Moon in Taurus on 26th April - Showing patience and resilience for a long term gain.

 
Shepherd
In a couple of days time we will experience a New Moon in Taurus. The Taurus Scorpio axis on any chart is one of life and death, birth and rebirth. It is related to growing, making building and maintaining something of value (Taurus) and then tearing it down so that new structures can replace those that have become tired and worn out (Scorpio). This constant cycle of renewal and replacement is fundamental to the circle of life itself, and as you will know any new Moon is like turning the page in a book and starting to read a new chapter. This new Moon in Taurus is the equivalent of planting a seed in the ground, watering it and encouraging it to germinate.

The approaching Gemini New Moon and Mutable Grand Cross of 5th June 2016

flood

Hi everyone. Very interesting week (31st May – 5th June) this week astrologically. Today (Tuesday) Mercury makes a trine to Pluto (it is also trine to Jupiter too making a grand earth trine) so we all have a chance to boil down and get the real details of any situation or thing that we are interested in. If you want to find out the truth, ask your questions today and the information should flow.

New Moon 24th Sept 2014 – A chance to push forward at last.

 

new moon libra

Another new Moon arrives on Wednesday this week, the last one before the Autumnal eclipse season begins. Any new Moon can give us the chance for a fresh start to things, an opportunity to place down a marker for the future and to set out our some of our intentions for the coming months. This new Moon lands in the sign of relationships, balance and equality, Libra.

New Moon in Leo on 26th July 2014 – Don’t burn yourself out in the excitement of the moment.

campfire

On the 26th July, we have another new Moon coming our way and this time it will be landing in the sign of Leo. Leo is the Sun’ s sign, one of individual creativity, of showing the world who you are and what you can do and with a  new cycle beginning it is time for us all to create and to make a wish of what we would like to bring to fruition in our lives. This time around we are going to have immediate and big plans that we will want to enact!!

New Moon in Cancer - Felling confident, alive and willing to take a risk.

Holding baloons
This is occurring on 27th June 2014 or 26th June in the US and Americas.

We are approaching a new Moon in Cancer in a couple of day's time occurring at 09.08 hrs London time on Thursday 27th June. This New Moon occurring in the emotional and watery sign of Cancer will accentuate feelings and intuition this time around. As you will know, each new Moon brings a new quality to our lives and poses us a question too. The last new Moon in Gemini asked us what ideas we had and what new thoughts we were considering. This time out the New Moon asks us to look inside ourselves and the consider what we feel, not in just immediate terms within our relationships but also in the wider context about our families and about the past too. What lessons from the past can we apply to our lives now, how can our families help us and how can we strengthen our personal security and the ties between ourselves and the ones we love?

New Moon in Aquarius – A shift in consciousness

new-moon

Sometimes I wait a little before I write these posts just to feel what is going on before I start to put my thoughts down onto the word processor and with this new Moon I believed it was the best thing to do just to “catch the moment”. Do you feel a shift of consciousness right now, as if things really have to change? Maybe life will get more uncertain, yet maybe the unease you have been feeling is not what you need and now you need to settle things down a little? This new Moon, a super Moon at that and one which will appear much bigger than normal in the night’s sky comes at a moment of a switch in emphasis of the movement of the planets above us all.

New Moon in Capricorn 1st Jan 2014 – A New Year bringing a statement of intent.

full moon 2

A new Moon for a new year, that’s appropriate, isn’t it? Well as we end 2013 and enter 2014 we do start with a brand shiny new Moon and wow, this is a beauty!! This new Moon lays down a marker for 2014, and if you felt that last year was a miserable one, and many of us know this to be true, then the planetary formation here on offer to ring in the New Year can give you a lift and a potential to kick start to get your life back into action. If this is the way that you mean to go on in 2014, then strap in, buckle up and get ready to turn the keys to start the engine.

New Moon in Sagittarius - Going on a journey of trial and error.

Moon

There’s a new Moon in Sag tonight - exact at 00:28 hrs in London. New Moons in Sagittarius are about knowledge, wisdom and learning through one's mistakes. Yes Sagittarius is a wonderfully outgoing sign that is very unafraid of taking action then thinking later so anything started now will eventually bare fruit, but it may be a tortuous journey of experimentation, trial and error. It's fun while you are trying out new things though, so enjoy the energy of a new cycle that is being started off now.

New Moon in Libra – Do you stick, or do you twist?

Moon 4

One again we are closing in on the dark time of the month and yet an another cycle is beginning as we approach this Libran new Moon on the 5th October 2013 or on the 4th if you are in the Americas or Caribbean. This is the last New or Full Moon before we get to the latest eclipse season, and this time the themes that come shining through are about balance, of giving and taking and more pertinently this time around because of the positions of the other planets in the skies of keeping the rule of law and respecting that we do have limits despite the pressures urging us to be a little more devil may care.

New Moon in Virgo – Cleanse the wounds and change your life.

Moon

We have a new Moon in Virgo forming on the 5th September 2013 and as always New Moon give us the opportunities and the chance to start some new energy into our life. Virgo is a sign of service, of tending to the details, of analysing and cleaning up anything mess or junk that is in our lives, Virgo can’t abide anything that is not in order. This new Moon lights up the Virgo Pisces axis of the sky above us and highlights the small but significant asteroid Chiron.
