You didn’t need a season of Jenn Tran The Maiden Down Know that drama can and will find you anywhere. But like Jenn, sometimes it’s best to just let it all go and move on – and the universe is pushing you to adopt that attitude right now.

This is all thanks to the new moon in Libra, which takes place on October 2, 2024. According to Donna Page, a certified astrologer in Atlanta, you’ll crave peace and harmony during the new moon, and you’ll sprint in the opposite direction when drama comes to light.

Of course, it’s much more involved. Here’s what else your zodiac sign can expect from the new moon in Libra.

What does the new moon in Libra mean for your sign?

Let’s back up for a moment: The moon goes through different cycles, and a new moon is when it appears almost invisible from Earth. Each new moon syncs with a different zodiac sign, creating a particular atmosphere that can influence what you think and how you behave at that time.

This particular new moon is in the sign of Libra. “It’s about relationships – what relationships do you have with others?” The website says. This will emphasize peace and harmony in all aspects of your life, whether it’s letting things go when your partner can’t get past his allergy to making the bed, or chalking up the rude comment your sister made to you after he’s just having a bad day. At the same time, you are not a doormat. If you discover that someone in your life is consistently toxic, you will take a step back from this emotional chaos.

Libra is ruled by Venus, which is the planet that wants you to be happy, Page explains. “You’re going to want luxury and fun,” he says. “This becomes very apparent when you work too much.” So don’t be surprised if you end up deciding to use your saved PTO to book a sweet trip to an amazing place. After all, you deserve it.

At the same time, Venus will strive for intimacy in your life. You’ll crave deeper connections with people, whether it’s your partner of several years or connecting with someone new. But you don’t want anyone random sharing your bed – you need to feel like you can connect on a deeper level than just physical.

Finally, since we’re talking about Libra, balance will be a top priority for you. “Anything that doesn’t feel equal to you will raise a red flag for you,” Page says. For example, you’re keen to avoid drama, but if you’ve paid the bill for your crew several times in a row, you won’t hold back from gently asking your friends to move on to the next round.

The new moon will affect all zodiac signs, but Page says Libra and Aries will feel it the most.

How will the new moon in Libra affect the rest of the year?

Learning to put drama on the back burner will be incredibly liberating for you and will make you want to minimize it again in the future. While drama will inevitably creep in here and there, you will do everything in your power to stay on top of it in the future.

Additionally, acknowledging that you’ve burned the candle at both ends is a powerful emotional tool. You’ll start checking in with yourself regularly to make sure you’re not constantly stewing on the verge of burnout.

Finally, while you may not be able to have intimate connections with others 24/7, in the future you will be more willing to form deeper connections with the new people you meet. After all, surrounding yourself with people who get you can take you much further in life than surrounding yourself with a few people for the sake of numbers.

When is the next new moon?

Another new moon is coming November 1 in the sign of Scorpio. During the new moon, you will feel the need to delve deeper into your feelings. For now, enjoy this drama-free bliss. This is deserved.
