There is a new moon present, and this is a great time for reflection as it moves into full illumination in a couple of weeks. 

New moons, believe it or not, are for uncovering truths, hidden talents and having long term goals obtained. It’s starting over, clearing space, understanding what you just went through…to grow some more!

With the moon in Libra, you’ll be looking for equality…but how about doing so for yourself? Put your foot down, draw the line, set the boundaries. Helping others is fine…are you helping yourself? It’s important…because you can’t pour from an empty cup.

Today is a great day to appreciate art, literature, music, ect. Or to create it yourself.

I recently learned something that I should tell others. I had someone spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to tear me down, and it never worked. In fact, it made me realize that the time period they chose to hurt me was of growth and healing – it was meant to be dark. Well, I grew, sprouted leaves, petals…and fruit.

Meanwhile, they have been and are continuing to wither away. Libras are about love and justice, so now is the time to have my wrongs righted – without acting in the same manner I was treated.

Please remember that, the next time your struggles are brought to the forefront of your mind.

This week’s reading is beautiful. It speaks of protection, balance, light and love. We all need this in our lives.

First, we have Sacral Chakra. This chakra is connected to creativity, how you present yourself to the world, and sexuality. But today, it’s focusing on a major creative undertaking taking place. You have started something great – your greatest work yet. And it is brimming with life, love, experience and healing. When you are creating, do not be ashamed! Do not hold back your talent, and let it flow.

Next we have Throat Chakra. This chakra is connected to communication, honesty…and being able to speak your mind. A lot of us have had someone in our lives who continuously tries to make us feel less, or love bombs us and tries to set us up for that terrible let down. This card speaks of protection against it. It is a proactive sentiment. The universe hears and sees you. Create in peace!

Lastly is Romantic Love. Ah, you’re in an amazing relationship! Judging from the first two cards, your darling helps you in ways you never thought were possible. With that type of pure love, it’s easier and safer to create. Being adored, being loved unconditionally means you can create just the same. They see something in you, and their devotion helps fuel your creativity…as well as theirs.
