New Libra Moon with Wendy Groomes*
Equinox (Sun Ingresses into Libra) Sacred Shift in the Seasons – Monday, September 23rd
Libra New Moon (Sun and Moon in Libra) – Saturday, September 28th
We have already entered Libra energy with Mercury and Venus traveling in the sign of the scales (communication with All our Relations is highlighted). Then the Sun’s entrance into Libra on September 23rd–the Equinox (equal day and equal night)–kicks off official Libra season, and then the New Moon follows on the 28th. This year also includes Venus (Libra’s ruling planet) emerging as the Evening Star in the night sky, the day after the new moon.
So this turn in the seasons brings in the social aspect of relationships–relating, harmonizing, mediating and fostering balance, justice, and peace. This is the desire of Libra energy. This desire can lead us to adjust to others desires (which can breed co-dependence–a much bigger conversation can be had here–or our projection of what we think others want) rather than honoring balance in relationships (which means we need to speak up, adjust by rocking the boat so we are inclusive of ourselves, while also including others).
This new Venusian cycle brings great blessings in alchemizing our heart’s desire into literal form (we have lots of help now from Saturn moving in direct motion in Capricorn). What are we seriously desiring to bring forward into reality?
The New Moon brings a rawness to it, as it opposes Chiron in Aries – many will be considering their deepest wounds around doing it all alone, never having support, being self-absorbed/self-centered chronically, issues around shining and difficulty individuating (becoming themselves fully).

The Venus Evening Star’s presence now with the Sun, Moon, and Mercury in Libra brings significant beauty even in the midst of many conversions, chaos, change, which we will feel building throughout the month, we will seek out fairness, justice, and balance in relationships. Arguing or reacting to others may arise also with Libra planets squaring Capricorn (non-violent communication and the like are excellent tools for healthy relating).
The call now to transmute the ancestral/familial/cultural past (Saturn, the South Node and Pluto in Capricorn) in combination with New Moon asks us to break new ground, courageously, while following our heart’s desire. New partnerships/relationships will form at this time (businesses, marriages, cooperatives).
September 24th through October 2nd
Mercury and Venus square Saturn, the North and South Node, and then Pluto – collective skipped steps (karmic reckoning in our relationships to self, others, value systems, monetary systems, the Feminine–personal and collective). Squares bring friction/conflict which forces necessary confrontations (internal and with others) of what needs adjusting (also tends to bring collective irritation)
October 6th through 14th
Sun squares Moon, South Node, Saturn & Pluto
These are sobering times–more about this in the coming SHE Spotlight New Moon Podcasts.
