The New Moon and Eclipse in Libra bubbles like a spring of clarity. Eclipses clear blockages and reveal truth. This New Moon is lightening up heavy conversations by insisting that it is time to share the load.

Mars in Cancer squares this Moon. Where there may be a drive from Libra to make plans which keep everybody happy, Mars wants us to act protectively and helps us to tough out the most hostile of circumstances to protect our sense of family and security.

This Eclipse is revealing a way in which we can iron out wrinkles of disagreement and change the sheets on a bed which many might have believed was already made.

The New Moon, Sun and Mercury form a powerful Stellium which is centred on smart thinking and resolution. These three are working together to get our heads together with others, to cooperate and work out a way forward. But, with Libra's ruling planet Venus in Scorpio, do not underestimate the power of inner passion or the steps people will take to keep themselves protected under this Eclipse.

This lunation is keen for us to keep how we really feel under a smooth veneer of Libran charm.

If Mercury and the Sun are keeping a charmingly cool head in Libra now, Venus, at 11 degrees of Scorpio, represents our hearts and, with Mars and Saturn's backing, she is unwilling to compromise too much just for a quiet life. In this sign she would rather perish and have to rebirth herself through fire than to live a life where her passions are left unfulfilled. Saturn, tired of Piscean tides now, insists upon some order to the chaos of feeling. Compassionately, the planet of limitations suggests that we draw boundaries, not battle lines.

It might feel tempting under this Eclipse, which has so many emotions swirling in it thanks to a Grand Trine forming between the Water signs, to cast off to sea and throw caution to the wind. Luckily though, that same wind is blowing through the honey-soaked lips of Air sign Libra. Good manners and communication are the only keys we need to open a multitude of doors. The sweet harmonies of this Libra Stellium soften Mars's stance with a gentle lullaby. In Aries, Chiron also makes a square to Mars. Mars then, though ready to fight for what is right, feels held back from upsetting the apple cart unnecessarily. Between Chiron's bittersweet nostalgia, amplified by a sextile to Jupiter in Gemini, and the New Moon's promise of an easier future the only option seems to retreat beneath rough waves for now.

The Libran Moon, conjoined with inquisitive Mercury teases out the truth of all this emotion and prompts conversation. By sharing what we are afraid of, we can confront what is irrational with the beauty in our reality. Anxiety can be soothed from restless energy into a productive force. By acknowledging what we feel most passionate about, this Lunation inspires us to create something with love.

Through this eclipse, Neptune and Saturn, which are both retrograde, sit at 28 and 14 degrees of Pisces, respectively. These outer planets have moved back to the exact degree they were at during the April Eclipse. We might seem to have come full circle but Saturn is asking us what we have learned on our journey over the last few months. What work have we done to heal? Which boundaries have we tested and where have we found compassion and a sense of being held?

Neptune, the planet with the power to rule the chaos of the Ocean compels us to keep dreaming. Tides are turning.

This powerful Solar Eclipse offers a breakthrough for what makes sense now, what is reasonable. This New Moon brings focus to resolution, compromise, and harmony. We are being cosmically encouraged to make changes that allow for balance. To weigh up decisions and motivations carefully, to check that our feelings, though they are undoubtedly powerful now, will lead us to the best outcome.
