Balancing Your Life's Scale: Libra's Influence from 2004 to 2025

Intuitive analysis of the Libra's New Moon Solar Eclipse through the lense of Chandra symbols.

The Libra Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse on October 14, 2023, marks a significant celestial event, the first of its kind since 2004. Occurring at 21 degrees Libra, this eclipse brings hidden aspects of our subconscious to light and reveals what's been in the shadows. It represents a reset concerning Libra themes such as synthesizing opposites, striving for peace and harmony, commitment, and effort. It brings creative energy, particularly in relationships, with a desire to balance them effectively. A Mars-Saturn trine aids in pacing and practicality. Mercury's conjunction with the Sun and Moon encourages thoughtful expression, while its opposition to Chiron in Aries prompts us to approach communication with logic and level-headedness rather than from a wounded perspective. Maybe we're not as desperate to show each other the full strength of our love for each other until we lose each other. Just as we aren't thirsty when we have a water bottle with us, we are as soon as we lose it.

This New Moon is also a Solar Eclipse, the second in a series along the Aries-Libra axis from 2023 to 2025, prompting a shift from independence and assertiveness to a focus on healthy relating with all layers of consciousness from humans, animals to plants. The last Solar Eclipse at a similar degree in Libra occurred on October 14, 2004, with previous occurrences in 1996 and 1977. Another set of eclipses along this axis occurred from 2013 to 2016 and, before that, from 2004 to 2006. This rare and powerful eclipse signifies that its effects will unfold over the next 5+ years, making it a significant astrological event to watch.

Note: These symbols are expressed in words rather than images.

A magician wearing a live snake for a belt.
A mobius strip of yes into no into yes. Yes is primally the eager embrace of sense-life in a rapture of release. The No is not being able to handle, even remotely, the social repercussions of being viscerally empowered. The further Yes is at last being able to embrace unreservedly the self that got lost in the world and the world that got lost in the self. Until this final reckoning the No wreaks havoc. You thrash around in a frenzy of trying to spin away from reflected images and impressions. You just cannot bear to hold still and be pinned by ideas about who you are and who your are not. An elemental power in spiral vortex action seeks to consume all false selves and to become so authentic that each breath of experience is purely there with no interpretive filter whatsoever. This power ultimately brings everybody to the point of no longer putting up with being trapped in shallow frequencies and bursts everything open, or else is willing to die trying.

A magician boldly adorns a live snake as a belt, creating a symbol of profound transformation. The concept of "Yes" and "No" exists as a continuous loop, where "Yes" represents an enthusiastic embrace of life and self-realization, while "No" signifies the fear of societal consequences that come with being fully empowered. Eventually, the resounding "Yes" signifies the ability to fully embrace one's true self, bridging the gap between self and the external world. Until this realization, the resistance ("No") causes turmoil, leading to a frantic effort to evade societal expectations and self-imposed limitations. In a spiraling vortex, this elemental force strives to shed all false identities and attain pure, unfiltered experiences, ultimately liberating individuals from superficial constraints.

Imagine the possibilities of setting heartfelt goals that resonate with the essence of your being, guided by the tender energy of the Scales. The memories of past eclipses remind you that life is a continuous cycle of growth and transformation. Nurturing your negotiation skills without sacrificing your core values stirs the soul. It's a call to dance gracefully through the intricate steps of compromise, to find the rhythm of understanding without losing your authentic self. Feel the warmth of connection as you contemplate the act of rebalancing your relationships. Let the cosmic energies envelop you, guiding you toward a brighter future. Where does forgiveness start? Maybe we're more desperate to show each other the full strength of our love once we lose each other.

Trust in the healing process, and know you deserve love and peace. Immerse your soul in love. - A.Mournian.
