A Reset for Harmony, Healing, + Connection
Waddup babeface/girlypop/bestie/queeeeeen or whatever the young people are saying these days!
Take a deep breath; the New Moon in Libra is bringing a fresh gust of balance, beauty, + inner peace your way.
On October 21, 2025, at 8:24 AM EST, the Moon + Sun meet, OFFICIALLY closing the eclipse portal (which has been slowly working its way to exactly closed since our last eclipse) + opening a new lunar cycle. This one is about healing relationship wounds, restoring harmony, + finding your flow again both with others and yourself.
What Is a New Moon (+ Why Does It Matter)?
A New Moon happens when the Sun and Moon align in the same zodiac sign, + the sky looks dark because the Moon isn’t reflecting sunlight toward us. Spiritually, that darkness represents a blank slate. It’s your time to plant seeds, set intentions, + begin new cycles (aka PRIME manifestation time).
Every New Moon carries the flavor of the zodiac sign it falls in. This month, that’s Libra, the sign of balance, beauty, + connection, ruled by Venus, the planet of love, aesthetics, + goooooood vibes.
What Makes the Libra New Moon So Special
Libra energy is soft yet powerful. It’s the energy of grace, charm, fairness, + connection that helps you see both sides, make peace, + find your center again. Very… regal.
Because this is the first New Moon after eclipse season, it also acts as an energetic exhale. You’re being asked to release old stories, outdated relationship dynamics, + people-pleasing habits that no longer align.
For Cardinal signs (+ read this for both your sun + rising sign) (Aries, Cancer, Libra, + Capricorn), this one might hit even harder. Expect new people, new beginnings, or major insights about how you show up in your relationships.
The Vibe: Rebalance, Realign, and Reconnect
Libra’s symbol, the Scales, reminds us to check in with what’s been out of balance.
Are you giving more than you’re receiving?
Have you been avoiding conflict to “keep the peace”?
Is your space or your energy cluttered with things that no longer feel good?
This week is the time to rebalance. Not by pretending everything’s fine (you know this but I HAVE to say it), but by having honest conversations, showing up authentically, + remembering that your peace matters too. These things can be hard + uncomfortable but ultimately provide you with peace + gratitude on the other side.
How to Work With This New Moon
1. Set Relationship-Based Intentions
Journal or speak your intentions aloud. Here are some suggestions if you’re drawing a blank):
“I attract harmony and balance in all my relationships.”
“I honor my needs as much as I honor others’.”
“I give and receive love with ease + authenticity.”
2. Create a Balance Altar
Use Libra colors such as pastel pink, light blue, or white candles.
Add crystals like rose quartz, green aventurine, or clear quartz.
Light your candle + visualize the scales balancing perfectly in front of you.
3. Do a Mirror Ritual for Self-Love
Wipe down your mirror to clear the energy.
Look into your eyes and say, “I see beauty in myself + harmony in my life.”
You can anoint the mirror with rose or geranium essential oil for extra Venus energy.
4. Beautify Your Environment
Rearrange your space, buy flowers, or organize your vanity. Libra energy thrives in calm, aesthetic surroundings. When your space feels good, you feel good.
5. Reconnect with Others Consciously
Reach out to someone you’ve lost touch with. Have a heart-to-heart. Forgive where you can, and this can just be internally. Libra energy thrives on connection, cooperation, + clarity.
What Not to Do
Don’t rush into big moves without reflection. This energy is subtle + reflective, not impulsive.
Avoid saying yes to everything. Harmony over hustle! Balance over burnout!
Don’t get stuck in perfectionism. Harmony doesn’t mean flawless; it means aligned, babieeeee.
How the Libra New Moon Might Show Up for You
You might notice the urge to redecorate or reinvent your personal style.
A new friendship, romance, or partnership may appear.
You may feel called to apologize or find closure.
You may gain insights about how you give, receive, + maintain balance.
You might crave calm, beauty, + simple pleasures.
This moon wants you to slow down, recalibrate, and make space for joy again.
Honoring This Moon
Take a salt or rose bath to clear out old energy.
Charge your beauty tools, crystals, or perfume under the moonlight. Even though you can’t see the moon, it’s still absorbing energy.
Spend time in nature, listen, breathe, + reconnect to your center (but, like, do this always ok).
