We can observe the phases of the moon with the naked eye, making them among the most fascinating astronomical behaviors. Astrology finds them to be deeply rich sources of thought and interpretation. Among the 9 phases – New, Waxing Crescent, 1st Quarter Half, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter Half, Waning Crescent, and Balsamic – the New and Full Moons capture most of the attention.
This article will look at the current New Moon. It includes a “creation activity” associated with the sign of this New Moon. The idea originates from Jan Spiller’s book: New Moon Astrology: The Secret of Astrological Timing to Make All Your Dreams Come True.
New Moon – Let’s Start Something!
The Libra New Moon will occur on October 2nd at 10 degrees and 03 minutes. In my Eastern Standard Time zone, it will happen at 2:49 pm.
It takes 29.5 days from one New Moon to the next, spending approximately 2 and ½ days in a sign. Just before the New Moon begins, the 3 days of the previous moon phase is the Balsamic Moon. That period is ideal for meditating, reflecting, and releasing; all in preparation for the New Moon.
The first 12 to 24 hours after the New Moon begins is the best time to initiate energy. We will explore each New Moon using Jan Spiller’s suggested actions to take advantage of this period of inspiration.
The energy of the New Moon perfectly suits embarking on a first date, exploring novel experiences, and visiting uncharted places. It’s an opportunity that unfolds each month, inviting you to synchronize your actions with the fresh beginnings. Keeping track of the New Moon allows you to deliberately engage in something new. Take the time to initiate a project aligning with the Moon’s unique energies as it travels through different signs.

New Moon in Libra
During the New Moon in Libra, we immerse ourselves in themes of harmony and relationships. Libra’s influence prompts us to focus on creating balance and fostering meaningful connections in our lives. This lunar phase encourages us to engage deeply with our social interactions and the joy of collaboration. Therefore, we can strengthen bonds through diplomacy and open communication, seeking fulfillment through fairness and mutual understanding. Consequently, this New Moon inspires us to align with our true values by nurturing peace and cultivating partnerships.
This New Moon will occur at 10d03m of Libra, making its Sabian symbol 11 Libra, “A professor peering over his glasses.” Marc Edmond Jones says, “This is a symbol of high ego on the personal side, or of the naïve self-confidence by which an individual is enabled to continue the role of superiority he has elected to play among his fellows. Implicit here is the refinement of self in whatever particular phase of excellence will promise recognition for itself, and also the acceptance of the form in which it is manifest. There is a subordination of all other considerations to the immediate dramatization of responsibility.” The key word is: SPECIALIZATION.

The Numbers of This New Moon
This New Moon happens on 10/2/2024, so the number is 11, a master number, which totals 2. The New Moon in Libra, influenced by 11/2, heralds a period focused on partnership and embracing harmonious connections. Aligned with Libra’s diplomatic energy, this lunar cycle invites us to foster understanding and cooperation. Thus, we need to approach our relationships with empathy and a sense of fairness.
The number 11/2 symbolizes spiritual insight and sensitivity, urging us to cultivate deeper connections and prioritize collaboration. During this New Moon, we want to focus on creating equilibrium in our interactions, working thoughtfully to nurture peaceful harmony. It’s a time for intentional communication, setting goals that promote unity, and striving for meaningful relationships in our endeavors.
The Major Arcana cards for the number 2 are The High Priestess (2), the Justice (11), and the Judgement (20). They represent intuition, fairness, and decision making. The High Priestess guides the Fool to trust their intuition and uncover hidden knowledge, encouraging introspection and inner wisdom. Justice teaches the Fool about the importance of fairness, balance, and making decisions with integrity and accountability. Judgment calls the Fool to reflect on their actions and choices, embracing transformation and renewal.

Libra’s influence prompts us to focus on harmony in communication with our partners and enhancing our relationship routines. The number 2 symbolizes balance, cooperation, and connection, asking us to invest emotionally and work collaboratively. Therefore, embrace Libra’s diplomatic energy and let it guide you in refining your approach. Trust in your ability to create equilibrium and excel through your dedication to others during this empowering lunar phase.
New Moon Wishing (A Tribute to Jan Spiller’s Work)
I deeply appreciate the practical applications of astrology. And one gem is Jan Spiller’s book, “New Moon Astrology: The Secret of Astrological Timing to Make All Your Dreams Come True.” Spiller emphasizes that wishing is not mere idle desire but a conscious act of responsibility. To harness this energy, you must be aware of the New Moon’s timing in your time zone. Once you know it, write your wishes within 8 to 24 hours after it becomes new.
Once the New Moon’s energy is underway, it’s essential to take pen to paper. Though digital options abound, handwriting your wishes and intentions is integral to the energy ritual. Spiller advises crafting 3 to 7 wishes, depending on the New Moon and your life circumstances at the time. Aligning your statements with the New Moon’s sign when you write your intentions adds an extra layer of potency.

Wishes/Intentions
Knowing your chart will help you understand which New Moons will be stronger, while others may be weaker. Sit down somewhere you can be comfortable, get your favorite pen, and write your wishes/intentions. Wording is very important, and Spiller suggests starting each sentence with, “I wish/want …”.
During the New Moon in Libra, consider the following wishes:
I want to create harmonious and efficient environments that bring me peace and fulfillment.
Then, I wish for the self-discipline and courage to release habits that disrupt my sense of equilibrium.
I want to cultivate practices that foster cooperation and personal growth.
I wish to embrace my analytical abilities and trust in my capacity to build balanced relationships.
Finally, I want to strengthen my sense of service and connection to my community through dedication and thoughtful interactions.
After jotting down your wishes, find a meaningful place for to keep them and revisit them periodically. Placing them in a journal or a special box by your bedside is a wonderful choice. Remember that the choice of paper and the pen you use play a role in this process. Being deliberate in every detail is key.
Happy New Moon Wishing!
