Or how to reset your life!

On October 14th, at 18:00 GMT, we will have a radical New Moon Solar Eclipse at 21° of Libra.

A New Moon (solar) Eclipse is a bit like a New Moon on steroids! It is potent, full of energy and out of your hands!

This lunation is an invitation to planting new seeds, gaining momentum, gathering creative ideas and setting new intentions for your life. In the sign of Libra, you might want to start afresh in various areas such as relationships, contracts and agreements, law and justice or you may simply want to focus on balance, harmony, diplomacy and art.

With every eclipse comes the idea of leaving something behind and moving forward lighter. It may be tough to let go of situations, habits or even people and your emotions could be running high. When the skies are in so much motion and change, it can seem difficult to navigate and you might ask yourself why you have to go through such a process. Well, firstly, the ways that the Universe works are not in your hands (so no need to worry for something you can’t control!) and secondly, the Universal laws are never against you. This is all happening for you. It’s for the better, a new you, a new reality and a positive reset.

At the time of this New Moon Solar Eclipse, Pluto is going direct in Capricorn, the North Node in Aries is opposing the South Node in Libra and the Sun, the Moon and Mercury are conjunct in Libra. The emphasis is definitely put on Cardinal Signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn). If you have placements between 20 and 29 degrees of these signs, this Eclipse might be even more significant in your life.

With Pluto direct and in the last degrees of Capricorn, we might experience some disclosure or revelations about power, exchanges and politics on the global scale.

With the Sun, the Moon and Mercury opposing Chiron in Aries, we might see personal and relationships healing under a new light. Readjustments, discussions, healing and compromise are big themes related to this lunation.

All in all, this New Moon Solar Eclipse is intense, powerful and profound. There is the idea that we can’t go back to where we were, where we felt comfortable and stagnant. Progress and evolution are essential to our human experience on Earth, as individuls and as groups, life is a school and we must learn and move on. Eclipses seem like a friendly but firm reminder of that notion. It is time and it will work out. The base is new, the foundations are set, we can make progress!
