✨Set your Intentions!✨
Typically, a new moon is the prime time for setting intentions, but the one we just experienced was anything but typical and this past weekend was NOT the time for fresh initiatives. The skies are charged with intensity.
🌌 Outer Planets Connecting
Uranus, Neptune, and an out-of-bounds Pluto are forming a Minor Grand Trine, signaling collective shifts in how we think, communicate, and participate in community life.
Expect “power to the people” themes to rise when freedom feels threatened.
Conversations about censorship, ethics, and morality will intensify.
🔥 Personal Planets Provide Focus
Mars enters his home sign of Scorpio on Tuesday, fueling personal conviction and deep determination.
Sun and Mercury traveling through Libra highlight justice, fairness, and diplomacy.
Venus in Virgo asks for discernment—where is your devotion best placed?
Before firing off social media posts or diving into heated debates, pause to consider: Is this where my precious energy belongs?
🌑 Solar Eclipse at 29º Virgo
This was no ordinary new moon—it was a solar eclipse, which supercharges the moon and brings hidden truths to light.
Did surprises, shocks, or challenges surface for you this past weekend?
The 29th (anaretic) degree often signals crisis, endings, or final lessons.
As a South Node eclipse, this one calls for release—let go of what’s collapsing so you can step forward unburdened.
🌙 Be in Tune with the Moon
Every new moon initiates a 27-month Moon Family cycle. Since this was an eclipse at the final Virgo degree, the cycle is especially potent.
Look at where Virgo falls in your chart for guidance on the area of life being activated, then set intentions for the next 2+ years.
Here’s how to harness the power of the moon cycle:
🌑 NEW MOON
Sun + Moon conjunct, same sign
Key words: inspire · dream · initiate · begin
Seed ideas, brainstorm, and dream big—but wait for the crescent moon to physically appear in the sky before acting.
On Tuesday, September 23rd, the moon is 4% illuminated and sets at 8 PM—perfect timing to launch a long-term project!
Ask yourself: What is being seeded?
🌓 FIRST QUARTER
Sun + Moon square
Key words: grow · build · expand · invest
9 months later, the first quarter moon occurs at approximately the same zodiac degree. This is the “action point” of the cycle—time to push forward boldly.
Ask yourself: What is being built or pushed into reality?
🌕 FULL MOON
Sun + Moon opposite signs
Key words: manifest · complete · celebrate
At 18 months in, results come to light. Step out, share your creation, and celebrate progress. This is the harvest phase.
Caution:
Emotions run high—tend to your team, family, and self.
Secrets can surface—protect your boundaries and intellectual property. Don’t do anything you don’t want seen!
Ask yourself: What is being exposed, completed, or celebrated?
🌗 LAST QUARTER
Sun + Moon square
Key words: harvest · release · prune · declutter
27 months after initiation, it’s time to wrap up, recycle, and release what no longer serves your highest good. A “Crisis in Consciousness” may stir discontent with outdated structures—let that fuel renewal.
Ask yourself: What is being cleared away to make space for the new?
