🌑 New Moon in Libra: Fragile balance, drama guaranteed
The new moon of October 21, 2025 , lands in Libra , and trust me, you're going to feel it. Libra, the sign that dreams of peace, harmony, beauty, and balanced relationships. It sounds great on paper. But in real life, it often looks like, "I want to please everyone, and I end up frustrated as hell."
The new moon is a time for resets. For intentions. For new beginnings. And when it falls in Libra, everything related to relationships, balance, aesthetics, and justice starts to shake like a cosmic snow globe. You're getting hit in the face by mirrors, emotional dependencies, and rotten compromises... but also a great opportunity to rewrite the rules.
⚖️ What a shock
Libra is obsessed with harmony. The problem? When you push the dial too far, harmony becomes a toxic disguise.
During this new moon, expect:
-
Review your relationships : the ones where you give too much, the ones where you are never heard, the ones where you smile through gritted teeth.
-
Confronting your own “fake zen” : that mask of peace that you display while inside you are ready to strangle someone with your mala.
-
Question your compromises : By trying to avoid conflict, you realize that you have lost your power. And that stings.
-
Feeling judged by your own mirror : Libra loves beauty, so you might find yourself scrutinizing yourself as if you were at a casting. Spoiler: This isn't the time to be your own worst critic.
In short, it's going to be itchy in the corners. And if you refuse to look? The moon will do it for you.
✨ What it brings you
Fortunately, it's not all drama. Libra can also be a fantastic ally if you harness its energy in the right way:
-
A relationship reset : you can set clear intentions for your relationships. What you want to nurture, what you want to cut.
-
A breath of beauty : Libra is Venus. Add a touch of aesthetics to your life, even a small one, and you'll see your energy shift.
-
The power of choice : this is the moment to say “I’ll keep this” and “that’s it.” And believe me, saying no can be the most beautiful spell of all.
-
A new balance : not perfect, but real. You can decide that your balance is to have messy days and aligned days. And that's fine.
🕯️ Express Balance Mini-Ritual
No need for a glamorous altar with 15 candles in a row. Here's a quick version that does the job:
Material :
-
A white candle (or any one that is still burning).
-
A mirror (even your phone screen off).
-
A paper + pen.
Steps:
-
Light your candle and place your mirror in front of you.
-
Look at yourself in silence for 1 minute. Let what you are avoiding come to the surface.
-
On paper, write a clear intention for rebalancing. Examples:
“I set my limits without fear.”
“I choose peace with myself above all.” -
Fold the paper, slide it under the mirror and blow gently on it.
-
Say: “I welcome balance. Mine. Not anyone else’s.”
-
Blow out the candle. It's done.
😏 Sarcastic Survival Tips
-
Stop thinking you can please everyone. Even gluten-free cookies have haters.
-
Don't confuse harmony with submission. They are not the same thing.
-
Your balance shouldn't be aesthetic, it should be livable. Insta filters don't cleanse your aura.
-
Set your boundaries. If you don't, someone else will come along and set theirs, and you'll like it less.
-
Don't get lost in "fake Zen." Just because you say "namaste" doesn't mean you're aligned.
✨ Conclusion: Balance is a wobbly dance
The Libra new moon on October 21 isn't here to transform you into a perfectly balanced marble statue. It's here to teach you that balance is fluid. That you have the right to sway, to set boundaries, to say no.
Your power is to choose. Choose what you feed, choose what you let go.
So this October 21st, instead of trying to be perfect, choose to be true. Because the truth, even shaky, is better than a cardboard peace.
