Libra New Moon
We’ve arrived at the New Moon in Libra October 21st… this is a cosmic moment that looks like a fresh start on the surface... but underneath, it’s stirring something deeper.
Libra is the sign of harmony, beauty, connection, and balance.
It’s where we explore relationships to others, yes, but also to ourselves.
To our desires. To our reflection. To the life we’re quietly dreaming of.
But this New Moon isn’t just soft and sweet.
It’s making a square to Jupiter in Cancer and an opposition to Chiron in Aries, and that means there’s something here that might hurt before it heals.
What this New Moon is really asking:
What wounds are still whispering “you’re not worthy”?
What parts of you still feel like you have to earn love, safety, or peace?
And can you give yourself what you’re seeking from others, first?
Chiron in Aries reflects back the ache of self-abandonment, especially in relationships. You might feel it surface as:
Waiting for someone else to validate your worth
Being indecisive to avoid conflict
Pleasing to keep the peace
Silencing your truth so no one leaves
This is the shadow of Venus in Libra that no one talks about, the hesitation, the holding back, the fear of being too much or not enough.
And now, Jupiter in Cancer is squaring off with all of it, gently but firmly asking:
Are your emotional needs being met?
Are you safe with yourself?
Are you anxious or avoidant in how you express love and receive it?
Because you can’t manifest the love, connection, or abundance you desire from a place of emotional bypass. You can’t call it in if you’re still shrinking to be chosen. You can’t receive it if your nervous system doesn’t feel safe enough to hold it.
This New Moon is a mirror.
It’s reflecting back what needs healing in how you relate, not just to others, but to you. And healing doesn’t mean perfection. It means honesty.
It means expanding your capacity to give yourself what you're always trying to earn.
✨ Emotional safety
✨ Being chosen
✨ Knowing you're worthy, even when no one claps for you
This is your invitation to begin again, but this time, from within.
Because healing is always an inside job.
And the more whole you feel within, the more true connection you can hold in every area of your life.
Aries Rising
This New Moon invites you to look closely at how you show up in connection, not just with others, but with yourself. The mirror is strong here: where have you bent or broken your boundaries to avoid being alone? Where have you waited for validation before believing you are worthy of love? Chiron across the sky is tender but wise, surfacing old stories of self‑abandonment and showing you exactly where they still live. Jupiter’s influence asks you to consider the deeper safety beneath your relationships, not just if someone chooses you, but if you feel safe to be fully seen once they do. This is a time to plant seeds for partnerships built on mutual truth and respect, where you no longer shrink to be loved but expand because you are.
Taurus Rising
This lunation calls you to reimagine the structure of your days; how you serve, how you care for your body, and how you honour your own energy. Old wounds may whisper that your worth is measured in what you do or how much you give. But this New Moon asks you to create rhythms that serve you first. Jupiter’s square highlights the link between emotional safety and how you move through the world: how can you build routines that help you feel grounded, supported, and enough? The seeds you plant now are about devotion, with daily actions that align with your deeper values and open space for more joy, more beauty, and more ease.
Gemini Rising
The New Moon arrives with a playful but potent invitation: to reclaim joy, to create without fear, and to express yourself as you truly are. Yet Chiron reminds you of the places where visibility has felt unsafe, where love once came with conditions, or where self‑expression was muted to keep the peace. Jupiter asks whether your inner child, the one who longs to be seen and celebrated, feels emotionally held. Plant seeds now that honor your creativity and open the door to pleasure that doesn’t need to be earned. Love, romantic or otherwise, blooms here too, especially when you release the belief that you must prove your worth to receive it.
Cancer Rising
This lunation pulls you inward, into the roots of your being and the story of where you come from. It may stir feelings of vulnerability around belonging and safety, inviting you to tend to the places that never felt truly held. Chiron illuminates the patterns you absorbed early on, perhaps around needing to care for others before yourself, and Jupiter asks whether those patterns still serve you now. The seeds you plant here are deeply personal: building a sanctuary within, nurturing yourself the way you’ve always wanted to be nurtured, and allowing emotional security to be the soil from which everything else grows. Manifest a life that feels like home, starting with your own heart.
Leo Rising
This New Moon asks you to speak with clarity and listen with intention. It illuminates how your voice has been shaped by fear of judgment or rejection, and where hesitation has held you back from naming your desires. Chiron challenges you to heal the fear that your truth might be “too much,” while Jupiter’s square asks whether your emotional landscape feels safe enough for honesty to flourish. The seeds you plant now revolve around communication that reflects your worth, and conversations that build connection rather than compromise it. Manifest a reality where your thoughts, ideas, and voice are honoured as sacred expressions of who you are.
Virgo Rising
This lunation shines a light on how you relate to worth - the worth you attach to money, to your gifts, to your right to receive. Old wounds might surface here, particularly around scarcity or the need to prove your value before claiming what’s yours. Jupiter’s influence invites you to expand beyond those limitations, reminding you that emotional safety and material abundance are deeply intertwined. The seeds you plant now are about remembering that you are the value. Manifestation begins when you stop questioning your worthiness to have more and start embodying it as your natural state.
Libra Rising
This is your New Moon, a deeply personal reset and the beginning of a new chapter in how you see yourself. And yet, Chiron’s presence may pull up memories of times you’ve hidden or softened yourself to keep love close. Jupiter’s square pushes you to question whether the identity you present to the world truly feels emotionally safe, or if parts of you are still waiting to be chosen. The seeds you plant now are about self‑ownership and embodiment: stepping into your truth fully, unapologetically, and trusting that the right people, opportunities, and relationships will meet you there. This is about manifesting a reality that orbits around who you are, not who you think you should be.
Scorpio Rising
This lunation whispers rather than shouts, drawing your attention to the hidden layers of your psyche, and the subconscious stories that shape your choices and the patterns that still hold you back. Chiron may surface old pain that you’ve tucked away, while Jupiter asks you to consider how emotional safety can exist even in stillness and solitude. The seeds you plant now are subtle but powerful: forgiveness, surrender, trust in the unseen. Manifestation here isn’t loud, it’s the quiet rearranging beneath the surface that clears space for deeper alignment and more authentic connection.
Sagittarius Rising
This New Moon is a call to your future; the people, places, and dreams that await you beyond your current horizon. It highlights your hopes and the communities that hold them, but it also brings up wounds around belonging: times you’ve felt like an outsider, or feared that your full self would be too much for the collective. Jupiter challenges you to build relationships that nourish your emotional world, not just your ambition. The seeds you plant now are about aligning with communities and visions that truly resonate. Manifest friendships, networks, and goals that feel like an authentic extension of your soul.
Capricorn Rising
This lunation points toward your calling, and the legacy you’re building and the mark you want to leave. Chiron may pull up insecurities about whether you’re “enough” to step into your purpose, while Jupiter asks whether your ambitions support your emotional well‑being or drain it. The seeds you plant now are about aligning outer success with inner truth. Manifest a path where visibility doesn’t require performance, where leadership flows from authenticity, and where your contribution reflects who you truly are, not just what you think the world wants to see.
Aquarius Rising
This New Moon opens a door to expansion, not just in the physical sense, but in the realm of beliefs, worldview, and possibility. Chiron reveals where your mindset has been shaped by old stories that kept you small, and Jupiter asks whether those stories still keep you emotionally safe or simply limited. The seeds you plant now are about belief, in yourself and in what’s possible, in a life that’s larger and more aligned than you’ve yet allowed yourself to imagine. Manifest a philosophy and a path that honours your growth and stretches your soul.
Pisces Rising
This lunation is deeply transformative, calling you into intimacy, vulnerability, and shared trust. Chiron stirs wounds around closeness and betrayal, showing where you’ve armoured yourself to avoid pain, while Jupiter’s square asks if you can feel safe opening your heart again, first with yourself, then with others. The seeds you plant now are about sacred merging without self erasure, about letting depth be a source of power rather than fear. Manifest bonds, whether romantic, emotional, or financial, allow you to remain whole even as you entwine more deeply.
