In the sky

What you’ll see.

There is nothing to see at the new moon itself: the moon stands close to the sun in the daytime sky with its dark side toward us. One or two evenings later a thin crescent appears in the west after sunset. Around the equinox that young crescent sits very low for northern observers and can be hard to spot, while in the southern hemisphere it climbs steeply and is easy to find. The moonless nights suit stargazing. The Milky Way’s bright center hangs high in the west after dark from the south, and northern observers can look for the Andromeda Galaxy rising in the east.

Black moon, depending on where you are. This is the second new moon in the same calendar month in Singapore, Manila, Perth; Sydney, Melbourne; Auckland, Wellington.

The next full moon is the Hunter’s Moon on October 15-16.

Astrology

New moon in Libra: what it means.

In astrology, the new moon in Libra starts a cycle about relationships, fairness and balance. Libra is the sign of partnership, so where many new moons focus on personal goals, this one asks what you want to build with other people and which connections deserve a fresh start. Tradition also reads Libra as the sign of the scales, which fits a season that begins with day and night of nearly equal length. Intentions that suit this cycle include repairing a relationship, starting a shared project, making a fairer division of tasks, or bringing more beauty and calm into the space where you live.

Rituals

Three new moon rituals.

  1. Begin something together Choose one thing to start with another person this cycle: a weekly walk, a shared project or a common goal. Agree on the first date right away, so the plan exists outside your head.
  2. Send the invitation Think of the person you keep meaning to see. Invite them today with a concrete day and place, not a vague maybe. Libra intentions begin with contact.
  3. Weigh your week Draw two columns on a page: what drains your energy and what restores it. Move one recurring commitment from the first column toward the second before the next full moon.
