NEW MOON IN LIBRA forget love and peace…. The first of six New Moons at 28° of their relative signs. This New Moon will take place at 28°21’ Libra (antiscion 01°39’ Pisces). Libra brings to mind the usual Venus topics with a very harmonious nuance.

Mainly because Mercury in Scorpio is a great detective, uncovering things that some or most of us would rather pull the carpet over. Mercury might also go overboard in insults when and if perceiving wrong-doing and ideas and thoughts could get very fixed and obsessive too. On the plus side with this transit…nothing, absolutely nothing, will be taboo (conversation-wise)! Some interesting aspects: 07 October: square OOB Pluto R [...]
FULL MOON IN ARIES A Harvest Moon with little to reap… Full Moons are moments when matters peak concerning the house axis where it falls, for good or for bad, and some of these matters could involve any intentions you might have set on the previous New Moon which took place fifteen days ago. The Full Moon occurs at 14°08’ (antiscion 15°52’ Virgo). The antiscion point is exactly opposite the degree of the Lunar Eclipse which took place on the 7th of September at 15°25° Pisces and thus activates the eclipse. The Moon and Sun stand alone as they face each other since there are [...]
