The new moon in Libra is exact on October 21 at 8:25 a.m. eastern. Libra, in part, is the sign of harmonious relationships through the art of compromise. Thus, this new moon cycle may find you trying to strike such a balance in your life.
It’s interesting to note that Pluto in Aquarius, which went retrograde on May 4, 2025, went direct on October 13, about a week ago. Pluto’s influence involves the balance of power—not just on the world stage, but on a personal level, as well. With Pluto direct in Aquarius in a harmonious aspect (trine) to the Libra new moon, there is support to help you reach agreements with others for the benefit of all.
As new moons are symbolically associated with new beginnings, you may want to establish new ways of interacting with people, particularly if you want to resolve a situation where you or someone else does not feel they are receiving their fair share of time, energy, etc. Libra is a cardinal air sign, so think about initiating such conversations, if you feel called to. Or, you could simply come up with strategies to change your own behavior and mindset so that your actions reflect your desire for equality.
It’s quite fitting that the Justice card in Tarot is associated with the zodiac sign of Libra. It may help to think about this card during the next couple of weeks. The shadow side of the Libra energy is to be a people pleaser or to follow the consensus for the sake of being liked instead of standing up for what they really want. By the same token, the Pluto influence can tend toward strong arming or manipulation to bully others to bend to their will. Keep mind that true justice is about integrity and fairness so that the scales are not unduly tipped to either side.
