The new moon on 16th October 2020 will be at 23 degrees of Libra making a trine with its own North Node in Gemini and squaring Pluto in Capricorn. We have an opportunity for a fresh new beginning in the way we relate to ourselves and what’s going on in our lives. It’s time to take a more balanced perspective, not just looking from our own point of view, but also the point of view of those we encounter along our path.
The aspect with the North Node in Gemini is helping us to relate to the way in which we communicate and the way in which we inform ourselves in a new way.
The Sabian symbol for this new moon is “A butterfly with a third wing on its left side”. This sends us the message that we are developing a newly evolving gift, a special talent that will help us in our own evolution and transformation.
Let’s see if we can break all this down and what it might mean for you! Check where 23 degrees of Libra lies in your chart, and read on below for which house themes are being highlighted for you on this new moon. The more it aspects a planet or angle (see if you have your ascendant, a planet or midheaven at 23 degrees in a sign) in your chart, the stronger you will feel this influence.
