While having a very exotic title, Black Moons are pretty
much a basic New Moon in astrology, a time of completion and renewal. The black moon is the second new moon in a
calendar moon, next occurring October 21 2017. While it is rare to have more than
one New moon in a month, the current Black Moon is the byproduct of having two
full moons in September (the Thursday the 1st and Friday 16th )The
new moons is the moon at its wane, when it’s light can barely be seen and the
black is no exception, exhibiting faint light.
In astrology, New Moons are times for completion of ones
efforts and readying oneself for the next lunar cycle. Finishing projects, concluding outstanding
business and determining the effectiveness of previous efforts are good uses of
New Moon energies. You are also encouraged to get good rest at this time and
attend to your basic needs of yourself and your loved ones (Libra is concerned
with relationships). This is a good time
for socializing and low key activities that let you recharge you batteries. A
good spa day or quiet dinner with friends might be just the ticket.
Libras, direct
you attention to any unfinished task. Give such work a once over and, if it is possible,
complete it. Mars’ recent entry into Capricorn may urge compulsive action, but
work more to be methodical and patient in your endeavors.
Aries, if you
have been working very hard recently, here is a perfect opportunity for break
time. Should you need to, seek recharge and refuel yourself. The days leading
up to the next full moon should offer ample time for advancement, but save your
strength in the meanwhile.
Cancer and Capricorn, this Moon may direct your
attention to some matter you neglected of recent past. You may feel a strong need
to address the problem, but work in preparation resolve the matter after The
New Moon in over is three days (October 3).
Marvel in the rare phenomena of the Black moon, keeping in
mind it is the chance to get your affairs in order. Attend to basic needs in light
of the opportunities to come.
