ENERGETIC CLEARING & CLOSING CYCLES: Be Loyal to Yourself! New Moon & Solar Eclipse at 10°03’ Libra on October 2nd at 8:49pm CEST
New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra 2024: Emotional Transformation and Karmic Themes this October
The Libra New Moon goes deep and is emotional despite the air energy of Libra - and not just because it's an eclipse which brings karmic topics out of the darkness and into the light.
Libra ruler Venus is in the transformative water sign of Scorpio and forms a trine to Saturn rx in Pisces. The ruler of the Aries North Node, Mars is in the water sign Cancer and squares the New Moon.
In addition, Uranus rx in Taurus forms a trine to the “King of Death and Rebirth” Pluto rx in Capricorn.
Love, Peace & Harmony? How the Libra New Moon Teaches You to Break Free from Dependencies and Find True Balance
But Libra only wants Love, Peace & Harmony…?!
That's all well! But in order to create true peace and harmony, we can and must sometimes recognize and heal our own fears of rejection and our patterns of dependency and self-denial.
And this should become clear to all of us, at the latest since the Lunar Nodes moved into Libra and Aries in 2023.
However, we are coming to the end of the Aries-Libra Eclipses. It's time to live and embody your learnings...
You probably also feel that enough is enough now: It is enough with making yourself small, watering yourself down and conforming.
It is enough with doing everything you can to meet the expectations of your counterpart, society or (internalized) authority figures and losing your needs, your values, your path.
Emotional Cleansing: Letting Go of Old Patterns
By doing what is expected of you instead of what wants to express itself through you, you are moving further and further away from what you are here for – your calling, your mission, your purpose...
The New Moon at the South Node shows: You may now let go and let go and let go and become empty... and then become open to the new...
The water energy of Mars and Venus also shows us: It's important to flush energetic and emotional ties that no longer serve you out of your system.
You may feel that fear, thoughts of scarcity, not being enough and not having enough or the tendency to belittle yourself originate from your past.
Perhaps it was necessary for your child self to do what your counterpart expected in order to survive and now she is still in the driving seat...?

Closing Cycles ! Strength and Healing During the New Moon in Libra
Thank your “little self” and give her a loving hug, but strengthen your heart and backbone. If you are strong and stand up for yourself, the little one in you will have less to fear...
Perhaps the limiting stories and attitudes to life don't belong to you at all, but are rooted in your ancestral line?
Perhaps lack, fear or harsh discipline are part of your family history.
Perhaps there were women in your lineage who had to hunch over and play roles because it was simply not possible to realize themselves and to follow their truth.
But YOU can and are allowed to live differently! You don't have to relive the old stories and you don't have to tell yourself the old stories anymore!
A sextile between Chiron rx in Aries and Jupiter in Gemini shows: You can heal now, turn your wounds into medicine and break new ground!
Authenticity and Inner Truth: The Path to True Peace and Authentic Relationships
Yes, Libra is about seeing and listening to the other side. It's about seeing yourself in the mirror of the other person.
But not if you lose sight of yourself or suppress your own voice.
Only when you know what you want will you be able to engage in authentic communication and bring a new level of authenticity and closeness to your relationships.
Only when you listen to yourself will you be able to recognize when and where you are acting AGAINST your heart and change or leave situations that are no longer right and aligned for you.
Ask yourself:
Is it important for you to be more open and hear the other side now?
Or is it time to listen to your own heart and be rooted in your point of view?
Where in your life is it important to take a new perspective?
Soul Contracts and Loyalty: The Energy of Juno
Juno in Libra conjunct the New Moon Solar Eclipse knows about soul contracts and vows of loyalty.
She knows about the potential for expansion, growth and self-knowledge that lies in relationships.
But Juno also knows that if you are true to everyone else but not to yourself, you will become bitter and die inside!
Juno and Venus in Scorpio ask you: Which relationships are you holding on to and giving away your own power – for fear of losing commitment or a sense of self-worth? Who and what are you loyal to?
Finding Balance in Extremes During the New Moon in Libra
But back to harmony and balance!
If you are currently experiencing many extremes in your life or within yourself, the Libra new moon and the entire Libra season (until October 23) is an energetic invitation to find a flexible and dynamic balance.
Polarities and dualities are part of our experience on planet Earth, but we can learn to balance them (better). How can you bring more balance into giving and receiving, activity and rest, I and We...?
Becoming aware of your true self and recognizing fear-based (people pleasing) patterns are not only themes of the New Moon + Solar Eclipse in Libra…
… but they build up to a very powerful Full Moon in Aries square Pluto on Oct 17th and continue on a new level after that...
But you can come into a deep cleansing NOW, invite new clarity and find a new balance within yourself.
You are enough. You don't have to please everyone. You don't need anyone else to like you. You are unique and you are needed. Just as you are. NOW.
