New and Crescent Moon

Monday September 22 With this balsamic Virgo Moon we can grasp a deeper meaning of our social and spiritual experiences, and gain a comprehensive and keen view of our skill at picking up on the hidden guidance which seems to get us through tight spots. Our instincts can detect what seems like a breaking open of new energy heading our way. At 8:29 pm, MT, the Sun moves into the sign of Libra, marking the beginning of autumn with the fall equinox. The relationship of the balsamic Moon with the Sun at this time suggests that this new season will draw us into a special space to revive our sense of community and test our ability to communicate the needs which support healthy relationships. Tuesday September 23 Today’s Virgo Moon bears the sense of how to handle relationships to bring about desired conditions. The Moon goes void of course at 6:14 am, MT, until late tonight. While she is scrubbing off the adjustments Virgo makes to attain ideal connections among daily companions, we might have trouble tailoring conditions to meet everyone’s needs. Compulsive or excessive petty demands trigger avoidance, which could, in fact, be a case of absentmindedness. Alongside a seeming lack of definitive action exists a magical reality in which several things become something else! At 9:59 pm, the Moon moves into the sharing realm of Libra and rushes into the Sun’s embrace after midnight. Wednesday September 24 The Libra Moon is in her new phase, having conjoined with the Sun early this morning. Our subconscious mind opens for impulses to bubble up to the surface of our conscious mind. They have to do with the recognition of how sensitive we are to intuitive or psychic information. From today through Friday we can identify how that is and what it needs to prosper. It can be helpful to notice how things take shape in your imagination throughout the day. We can enliven our inner senses by conjuring up images of personal concern and shifting them to how we secretly would prefer to see them. Externally we can look for signs of what will be and imagine them the way we would like them. Thursday September 25 With this Libra Moon camaraderie, cooperation and team spirit are part of the social scene. Many contacts can be made today. Some of them may be important in a karmic way, perhaps having information one has been seeking. It’s possible for inner radar, a hunch or feeling, to detect this. Be careful, however, not to overestimate what your inner senses are telling you. Shrewd understanding of human nature can keep one grounded and practical. Also an internal dialogue can bring answers to questions about underlying motives suggested by body language, manner of speech, or subtle insinuations. The Libra mind can easily disentangle and separate what is wrongly connected. Friday September 26 At 6:39 am, MT, the Libra Moon goes void of course for almost two hours of fanning off Libra’s ability to see into people and situations. We may have difficulty making decisions during this time. At 8:29 am, the Moon moves into probing Scorpio. This sign is drawn to examine inner motivational factors. It’s possible for us to single out what moves us to imagine and create something new in our lives. Scorpio can burrow in and understand things from the inside out. This sign doesn’t give up until the treasure is found. Listen to MoonWise tomorrow on the worldwide web at ksfr.org from 2:00 to 2:30 pm, MT, for the weekend Moon Minute. Weekend September 27 and 28 With this Scorpio Moon we can spend the day building associations with the surprising things which bring fullness to our lives. We can contrast those to the feelings in our hearts that put up barriers. At 10:16 pm, MT, the Moon enters her crescent phase when we are magnetically drawn to what has emerged since Wednesday and what we need to do next. On Sunday relationships offer insights into hidden connections which call for our full attention. At 2:31 pm, MT, Sunday, the Moon goes void of course for over two hours of draining off the strange insights of Scorpio. Such intimations are messages from our psyches and worth considering. At 4:50 pm, the Moon moves into perceptive Sagittarius.
