Looking at the Libran need for balance.
Libra spends so much time weighing things up, whether it is holding space for others , fence sitting so as not to rock the boat or swinging from extremes to find the middle ground, all of this tends to be stationary balance focus, and the balance Libra needs and we can all cultivate this during this month of Libra is to find the moving balance by setting a clear soul intention and using the tight rope as a means to balance on staying on your line and keeping your focal point on that intention, trusting that your feet will take you there one step at a time. This balance from me to you, rather than weighing things up and sacrificing your needs to keep the peace is a very different and healing way for Libra to work with the concept of balance.
This Libra New Moon on the 14/10 can be a great time to release old stories, patterns, habits and set a new clear intention can help you to understand where and what the imbalances are and how to realign your mundane rhythm into a better balanced flow
We are heading towards the first of a series of LIBRA/ARIES eclipses. The nodes are now spending the next 18months in these signs pushing up the imbalances within the key relationships and connections in our lives both on a global and more personal level.
Eclipses usually happen in two parts – the Solar eclipse at new Moon and then 2 weeks later the Lunar eclipse at the Full Moon and then 6 months later there will be the same thing but from opposite signs reflecting on the shifts that may be emerging.
I feel this Aries North node will be initiating or opening up some things that need to be addressed which may play out next April when we get the total eclipse in early April.
The shadow effect that the eclipses bring up pushes us as a community to have to take note and with this eclipse being in the social and relationship sign of Libra it pushes us to look deeper at what is not working and how to build better relationships – whether this is personal ones, business ones or even political ones. Unrest and imbalance force us to make the necessary changes.
Mars has moved into Scorpio which adds more power into how you drive your intentions out. Venus is weaker in Virgo so this will be the area we need to work with by being less critical both to ourselves and to others and try to find the beauty within each moment.
Pluto has now moved direct and will be forging forward through the last degrees of Capricorn with force and intention. Use this uncomfortable and powerful energy to eliminate what needs to go and make space for new things to come in. Pluto medicine works through pushing through the fear and realizing that as scary as the adventure is, it is a necessary part of the journey.
I want to leave you with this quote: “And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”
