Mercury and Jupiter in a social air sign trine is a reminder that, on some level, everyone longs to be understood. Few know how to go about it.

From peacock feathers to bright butterfly wings, nature is abundant with attractive, mesmerizing evolutions. It’s a new moon week, and this time, the fresh-start lunar energy circles around the realm of relationships and art. The sun and moon in Libra create an ideal atmosphere for exploring and experimenting with the things that attract us to one another.
The Libra new moon is also a time to start new with partnerships, forgive, forget and, more importantly, create new intentions for the relationship. Relationships are always bigger than the sum of their parts because they are made up of overlapping entities. Each relationship between two people happens in three places. It happens in the mind of person one, the mind of person two and in the realm of the relationship itself, which is a blended entity with its own chemical and spiritual composition.
The Libra moon is for respecting the unique qualities of relationships, celebrating them for what they add to life and recognizing what’s working or not about them so we can build more beneficial bonds in the future.
