Libra of course brings a strong call for balance in our lives and with the eclipse falling in this sign under the energy of the new moon, we are sure to see some major changes taking place in our external world. Many of us have already been feeling the stirring of change since the Lunar eclipse in Pisces, particularly with deep emotional wounds and patterns rising to the surface to be cleared once and for all. This intense call for clearing has brought about some unsettling energies within relationships and a great deal of discomfort as some of these wounds have been carried for many years.Â
But this has all been part of a process for each of us to step more fully into our authentic power, which we have not been able to truly embrace while we have been carrying these heavy burdens. So this is a time where we are seeing some prominent cycles coming to an end. It’s no surprise that grief has been a key theme around this time with the depth of emotion Pisces stirs and this transition into a completely new reality which has called for us to let go in a big way.Â
Fears, doubts and any old programming that would make us stay small simply cannot come with us into this new phase, and for those of us with insecurities this can be extra challenging to move through, because we are asked to deeply trust in the unknown now.Â
Libra, ruled by Venus, roots us into our hearts so this really is the perfect energy to follow the Pisces eclipse as we can find compassionate healing and the courage to honour our personal truths as we embark on a journey that defies logic and convention. If the Pisces lunar eclipse called us into connecting with these deep emotions, the Solar eclipse in Libra calls us to create the changes in our external relationships that allow us to restore a balance of energies.
In alignment with all of this, this new moon and solar eclipse carry the energy of the number 11. This significant spiritual number represents the perfect balance, and ascension through self mastery. The changes that are taking place now or that we are being asked to make are necessary to get us into alignment with our heart led purpose.Â
A shedding process always occurs right before new beginnings, and eclipses amplify that energy and often accelerate the shedding process. This is why we often experience sudden and unexpected changes around this time.Â
Libra always brings relationships to the forefront and this eclipse is no different. But the shift is happening on a much greater scale. For many this looks like cutting ties with toxic family members or literally moving away to somewhere new. This is an extremely courageous time because we are asked to honour our hearts despite the discomfort of grief and having to let certain people and things go. We’re also asked to do this with the acceptance that we might not be understood or get the response we hoped from others.
Another theme under this eclipse is about authenticity and self trust because in order to embark on this journey of heart led purpose we have to go against the grain. There is no way to fit your unique gifts into the box of traditional approaches and methods. Right now your ideas can really come to life if you are brave enough to let go of the need for others to understand you or receive you the way you’d like. You have to step forward now in full surrender because great success will come of you leaning into this.Â
The solar eclipse and new moon happening on the same day is such a beautiful representation of this balance of light and dark energy. The balancing of the scales happens when we learn to embrace our darkness instead of hide from it, and this is what we can expect under this energy. If we are able to bear witness to our shadows and work with them to integrate the lessons they bring, we will enter this new cycle with even more power and open up expansive possibilities.Â
