Your New Moon in Libra Moonscope October 21 2025

By our astrologer Elen

Create beauty. Bring something wonderful into being. And most importantly under the new moon in the sign of partnerships – whether you are single or settled, know that love begins with you and you always have it. It is not something another party brings to the table.

New Moons always bring in new beginnings. And the seeds we plant under them can bring us a rich harvest later. Transcend your relationship status no matter what it is now, and choose to radiate appreciation, a desire for harmony and indulge in random acts of creativity, kindness and love. This is a wonderful new moon under which to show your partner just how much you appreciate them if you have one. And also to experience art, music, culture, a good book or film. Anything which uplifts and also shows you that the world truly is a miraculous place and love is actually, all around you if this is what you focus on.

Self-love is the hidden Fifth Element of love we tend to forget about. Because it is the source of all other love. This isn’t self-absorption or narcissism. But caring for ourselves like we would care for a lover. Fall in love with yourself and the world will follow. Do remember – real self-love like the romantic and marriage kind, takes work. And it is a work in progress that we constantly have to nurture and evolve. It’s also more than just saying ‘Because I’m worth it’ to that indulgent purchase. Sometimes self-worth means saying no to ourselves or even someone else as much as it can be about saying yes. Because we understand we are worth more. Especially if doing so creates balance and harmony. Which is the essence of what this new moon desires for us.

So, no matter what new way of relating this new moon ushers in, balance, harmony and mutuality are what we can create for ourselves. And then bring this into all our relationships. This is a Cardinal new moon and the Cardinal creators – Aries, Cancer, birthday sign Libra and Capricorn, will especially feel the call to begin, create, initiate. Bookending this new Moon we have two squares – the Sun’s square to Jupiter in Cancer on the 17^th and then Chiron on the 23^rd. The new moon is in orb of both these – increasing the Cardinal energy. Each Cardinal sign marks the start of a season. Aries Spring, Cancer Summer, Libra Autumn and Capricorn winter. So, this Libra new moon season all signs should look to what they can begin when it comes to that fresh sense of relatedness. Start something relatable and make adding more beauty to the world around you your ultimate act of self-love – and love for others.

ARIES

No more putting the love you want off until tomorrow, Aries. We’re in the final quarter of 2025 – and this can have us looking at all the things we’ve yet to attain or accomplish. As well as all the other things that may be left unsaid and undone. Now – this is very different to plunging recklessly into the start of cuffing season for singles. Yes, it starts now. The countdown to yet another holiday season and yet another festive grilling over the turkey as to why we’re still single. And a list of all the relatives and friends who aren’t. Plus advice about lowering standards. No wonder desperately swiping takes over for many of us. But I’m not talking about that.

Look at relatedness and balance in general as well as specifics. Especially if you are single and putting off doing things until you have someone. Yes, there is no better or sweeter new moon than this one aside from that in Leo and your 5^th, to amp up your search for someone new. But embark on the journey with a sense of already being complete. And not needing someone else to fill in the blanks in your life.

Diplomatic and gently harmonious, the new moon enchants and enhances the love you have today – renewed, more relevant and resonant and filled with fresh potential. Not just across all kinds of partnerships, collaborations, working unions and long term friendships, but asks you to bring a new balance to all areas where you ‘relate’. Work/life, money and your emotional relationship to the material realm, needs vs. wants, what adds more value which may not be more but in fact less – provided it is exactly right for you. And yes, keeping your focus on the love you already have in your life – rather than focussing on the kind you don’t. And no matter what – not waiting for love to ‘happen’ or arrive. It’s already with you, Aries.

TAURUS

Behind the scenes devotional love actions become newly relevant and then ripple out into other areas of your life with the new moon in Libra and your 6^th. Don’t doubt that everything is inter-connected now, Taurus. Nothing is irrelevant. This includes those habits and that daily routine. How you spend your time – both at work and leisure. This new moon is perfect for setting new habits or changing up that routine. And any changes you initiate are likely to stick.

The most obvious area is your work/life balance. And if you are thinking of seeking new employment or even a course of study, now is the time to get those applications winging their way out there. You will be in the mood to tackle those everyday tasks. But the real benefits for you will be your enhanced awareness of how what you do or engage in on a daily basis, impacts on all other areas of your life. Perhaps in a way you had not considered before.

This awareness is the key to not only everyday balance and harmony, Taurus. But also practical magic with real-world results! Like all astrological secrets – it is honestly simple. What you think or do in private will be clearly visible to everyone around you now. No words needed. Like all new moons, this one plants seeds of potential. So, what you read shows up in your conversations and what you bring to your job or studies. What you eat or how you exercise shows up in your physical body. What you think and believe shows in your attitude and mental wellbeing. Your ability to focus and get things done shows up in your increased self-confidence. And your results. You feel better, think clearer and attract more of what you need. You are what you do each and every day. Whoever said the little things mean a lot said it after seeing a new moon in their 6^th house results. It all shows, Taurus.

GEMINI

Beautiful and alluring, the late-happening new moon in your 5^th tells you some things are worth the wait, Gemini. Especially when it comes to it being the right thing. Or taking time to bring something to fruition. This is your house of attraction – or one of them. And also your house of conception as it rules babies and children. But think of it this way – it takes nine months or 10 lunar cycles to grow a human being. So, the same principle applies to anything special and worth nurturing. Be it love or that passion project.

Have you given up on a dream? If sadly this is so, then this new moon reawakens your faith and your belief in what’s possible for you. Do watch for a sign as you will be given one. A magic feather, a synchronicity, a song on the radio – a message from the universe that tells you – all is well and which symbolises a new promise and hope.

Falling in love all over again – with your partner, with a plan, goal or activity, reawakening your inner child, finding joy with your own children or just feeling in sync with life itself, puts you in an upbeat, creative and playful mood. Time to indulge in pleasurable pursuits, to go with the flow and above all, to stop taking life too seriously. The more you radiate, the greater your capacity to attract. People, luck, opportunities. Balance should be effortless and easy. And if you are needing to struggle and push – time to step back and ask exactly why this is? Could it be because it is entirely one-sided on your part, Gemini?

Take it you’re trending under this new moon. Your ideas, your free thinking vibe and how you express yourself. Share this IRL and across your feed. Showcase any talents you have. Don’t be shy. And ahead of the upcoming Mercury retrograde – time to make your move under this new moon. Put yourself out there if you are seeking a new partner or a fresh source of employment. Lean in to goals that make your heart beat faster. And be honest about those which no longer do and let them go. This is a fame or attention getting new moon. One under which you can be known, perform, take a starring role in your own production and get yourself noticed. Even if that rapt audience is simply an audience of one. The best take out from all this – finding your real self, Gemini.

CANCER

You’re in quiet pursuit of something with the new moon in Libra and your 4^th, Cancer. All new moons are important starting points for you. Especially when the new moon is in a fellow cardinal sign. What you want is on point when it comes to home, family, foundation and security. And this is one of your ‘private’ houses in your chart. So, you may keep your plans to yourself until you are ready to make your move. Or only share them with those closest to you.

This new moon can have you looking to your current living arrangements, space or lifestyle and making changes or upgrading your home. The moon in your airy 4^th house needs room to move. So, you may decide to do just that, declutter, redecorate, buy fresh items or even extend your home. If something has become stale or confining, you’ll roll up your sleeves and set to it.

Domestic harmony sits high on your agenda. But do watch for any tendencies to want to keep the peace at all costs. Especially if this leaves you feeling you are having to take on more than your fair share of responsibilities. Or else secretly seething. Sometimes, balance can only come about through confronting an issue head-on.

This is also one of your houses of adulting. That is because it rules your path in life along with your 10^th house. This may see some of you stepping away from being the ‘child’ and communicating with your parents as an equal. This can be challenging for both parties. But this new moon hands you tact and sensitivity if this needs to be done. And you can create a healthier and closer dynamic if a conversation needs to be had.

Your sense of place and belonging and also feeling you are on the right path when it comes to your long term plans and goals for yourself, can be refined and redefined as needed. You’ll move emotionally or physically between now and the new moon in Capricorn and you’re 7^th. Find where your growth lies, Cancer.

LEO

Boot up your trust connection to the universe. Especially around your ideas, work, projects, plans and anything to do with writing, speaking, teaching, visual media and your online life, Leo. Those intuitive ideas and blue sky thinking? You’re being asked to simply follow them, sweet talking Leo.

To borrow some lines from ELO – this new moon has you running, searching and talking. This is your house of local and short distance travel and your commute as well as communication. Walking your talk in other words. Ideas which open doors and take you places. Conversation starters and commerce. We will shortly land in Mercury retro weather. So, if you have something to say, send or launch – hit that button on it.

Talk is cheap but actions speak louder than words in here. It’s all very well to talk a good game. But you only get the win when you decide to bring it. You can have the £1 million idea but it won’t make you a penny unless you follow through on it. Again, trust both your imagination and the universe. Follow those breadcrumbs or signs. You and airy Libra actually have more in common than you think, Leo. For one thing, air feeds fire. But Libra is a sign which values a lot of the same things you do. Reputation, track record and the ability to deliver. And all tied up with a sash of creative glamour.

Paperwork and contracts may feature over the coming weeks. Agreements can be reached. This is also your house of purchases and your car, computer, camera and devices. Again, if you are thinking of buying something new, do this ahead of the Mercury retrograde or else wait until it is over. The same goes for signing that work or purchase agreement or lease. Or even that marriage licence!

This is a new moon of flirtation. With fresh ideas in particular, but also in some instances with people. You are at your most engaging and charming. Casting a magic spell or compelling story. But do keep it firmly anchored in reality. And don’t make promises you have no intention of delivering on. This is also an opportunity to write an entire fresh narrative around how you come across, your beliefs, what you do and how you communicate. Yes, that sweet talk can be applied to reframing your ideas about yourself. And how you choose to interpret what you say and what others say to you back. No more getting lost in translation.

VIRGO

We are spirits in the material world. Leave actual cash out of the equation to begin with under the new moon in your 2^nd house. No sums, Virgo. Instead, as a spiritual being having a material/physical experience, look to how you relate to this. Your emotional bank account if you like. And your self-worth. Not the amount of money in your bank account.

Just what are your feelings around money and abundance? What are your triggers for instance? Do you feel you have enough? And if not, then just what does ‘enough’ look like? Do you have a sum in mind? Does having enough money mean not having to worry about it for instance? Do know what the bottom line is. And then once you do, spend a moment to explore how you really feel about this. Do you believe it is impossible for you to create or generate that? Does it make you feel satisfied, safe and create feelings of generosity and gratitude? Or do you feel strangely unsettled and worried about how you would manage it or the changes it would bring in?

None of these scenarios have anything to do with money itself. Money is not the root of all evil. Money is neutral. But we charge it with our emotional beliefs. Which is why the new moon in Libra and your 2^nd, is the perfect yearly opportunity to audit these. And to re-evaluate them as needed.

All this links back to self-worth. And this is one thing in life you cannot purchase. No matter how much of the folding stuff you have. You can conceal lack of it behind the big house or designer labels. But the only way you get real, lasting self-worth is to work at it. Add up all the things you do or are which create it. And then believe it. It sets the scene for your actual material worth when you know your value – and your price. Again, this is all about how you relate to this. So, if you are in search of more – be it income, money, possessions – relate anew, Virgo. Because cliched as it sounds – you are worth it.

LIBRA

The new moon in your sign tells you it’s time to unlock your heart and let love take you on a new path towards self-discovery and acceptance. Be proud and vulnerable in equal measure, Libra.

Although this is about you, you, you, it is also about who you are and how you show up in relationships. Before taking that next key step in an existing one – or seeking a new one, do look honestly at any past patterns. Yes, you can be vulnerable. But also strong. Especially around getting carried away or throwing your heart into the ring before you have determined the other party is worthy of it. Letting yourself get caught up in a whirlwind of romance may feel good in the moment, but not if it ends with a crash and burn. No matter when your birthday falls, the new moon in your sign is always a joint invitation to first create balance. And then to ditch an aspect of your old self. So, if reckless, intoxicating love has been part of the old you – time to let it go. You can still get the intoxicating rush. But mindfully. And make it last.

And yes, this is the moment of your relaunch. Time to unveil a new facet of yourself. Even if you are not opting for an entire new look, makeover or tweakment. Have you been underselling yourself? Your talents, track-record or skills? Or even what you have to offer on a more personal level? No more dismissing yourself or taking yourself for granted. And while we should constantly be evolving, when you look back at the past – is there something about you that has remained relevant which you discarded? I’m not talking about the shocker of those acid wash jeans, Libra. But your attitude, feisty individualism or daring? Maybe the new you is all about the radical reclaim or revival of parts of who you used to be. But which life or others made you feel you had to discard.

Above all under your strictly personal new moon, begin something new. Take action on a goal, dream or personal ambition which you wish to see fulfilled in the next 12 months. Be totally present as you do so. This is your moment like no other. What you begin now can be timed in key stages as the year unfolds and subsequent new moons appear in your fellow Cardinal signs – Capricorn, Aries and Cancer. You might want to make notes in your diary about this, Libra. Put all of you into being whatever and whoever you want to be.

SCORPIO

Even as you are poised on the very brink of your new cycle, the new moon in your 12^th catches you up in a final journey of self-examination and reflection. And hands you the willingness to shed any remaining baggage ahead of fresh starts and new beginnings.

You have arrived at the free fall, the zero point of karma for the year. Where you can surrender to forces greater than yourself and launch yourself fearlessly into the void between what has been and is. And what will be, Scorpio.

You can also adopt that enviable and soul enriching perspective of becoming the observer of your own journey. And do this without judgement and with detachment. And even apply this to others. You see everything as part of life’s experience. A combination of people, events, circumstances and choices which has brought you to this point in time. And made you into the glorious being that you are. The sum of all parts if you like. Yes, there has been pain and disappointment. Along with wins and happiness. The 1000 joys and sorrows that Buddhism talks about. And here you are, Scorpio. Richer for all of this. And ready for whatever comes next.

This new moon can lead you to discover answers to any lingering questions you may have. Possibly around whether or not something would have worked out. Or what would have happened if you had chosen that alternative. But hopefully, when these arrive they will hand you closure and completion. As well as a healing dose of self-forgiveness. Maybe there was a divine plan behind all of it after all.

Yes, the past may feature. But if so, this is just to bring you understanding and release. As you stand between heaven and earth, the old and the new, this is about looking ahead and not back. So, if the past literally turns up in person or slides into your DM’s, you may just want to leave it where it was, Scorpio. Behind you along with any regrets.

SAGITTARIUS

Those friends who feel more like family than family? Or one who feels like a partner even if your relationship is purely platonic? Not everyone has them, Sag. So, if you have even one who falls into this category – or may, then count yourself amongst the most blessed of all the signs this week.

And all friendships have a place in our lives. Not everyone of them has to be the Ride or Die kind. Acquaintances, fringe friends, activity friends, that person you’ve never met but whom you chat with over social media – all bring us connection. New friendships can be forged in the next few weeks following the new moon in your 11^th. Don’t judge a book by its cover. Or get hung up over what role this person may have to play in your life. Or you in theirs for that matter.

It’s a new moon where everyone is included and invited. It’s for joining in and engaging. And manifesting the new. But doing this your way. This new moon brings an added dimension to your desires. It allows you to align your intentions with the universe. The process is yours to individually design in a way which feels right for you. And there’s no right or wrong way to go about this. You and your goals are already entangled. It’s all part of what orbits around you. And what is now on a trajectory heading your way!

This is your house of communities, crews, groups, networks, clubs, bands, networks, associations and movements. The dream team, cheer squad and the crazies who are your brand of crazy. They can tumble out of the woodwork or down the steps of that UFO. They may come from a different background, country, social sphere or yes, planet. But they get you and you have their back in turn. They are your co-creators and future-makers. The figures in the card of the Three of Cups who celebrate together.

People don’t just power your future. They are the universe’s #1 delivery system for your goals. People make it happen. This is one of the best new moons of the year under which to reaffirm your existing goals. Or set your intentions when it comes to new ones. And do watch out for someone appearing whose vision is closely aligned to your own, Sag. It could be that you and they decide to combine paths, talents and intention. Yet another kind of friendship – the goal getting kind could be your next special relationship. Chasing the dream is so much more fun when you have someone else to pursue it with.

CAPRICORN

Do it with style, pizazz and with a touch of show-business glamour when it comes to your role or your goals, Capricorn. Nobody does it quite like you. So – on with the show! Libra and your 10^th house is about your public image as much as it is about recognition and rewards. The role of a lifetime or the one you are destined to play.

Do not compare your path, journey or allow ‘success’ to be defined by what others are doing. Or what society says these look like. Comparison is not only the thief of joy. It’s the thief of satisfaction and accomplishment. And also steals from us what makes us unique and what we and only we, bring to the table. In any scenario, Cappy. So, ensure success is self-defined. And also give personal goals and ambitions the same kind of priority and serious focus that you would a professional one. There are no small goals. Only meaningful milestones.

Do care for and craft your image. Under the new moon in your 10^th you are not only ‘on show’ for the next month, but for the next three months. How you come across and every move you make, counts. And while you may be unaware you are being observed and ranked, you will be. This isn’t about power dressing or dressing for success – unless this aligns to what you want to succeed at. But it is about how you come across and taking yourself seriously.

Rewards, recognition and stepping into a more responsible or prominent role could be on offer for some of you. While others may strike the ‘mother lode’ – a vein of gold which enriches more than just your resume or bank account as your status or credentials receive a boost. Or your long term efforts on either your own behalf or for others, finally pay off. That ‘mother lode’ can also come in the form of a new professional alliance or even in some cases, that romantic interest who can only best be described as a ‘catch’.

Take pride in how far you have already come. Add up those wins if you need further proof. While this is all about doing it your way, this is also your house of playing by the established rules. No colouring outside of the lines. Yes, know exactly how unique you are and just how that translates to what you bring to the table. Nobody does it better or quite like you. But be seen as someone willing to play by the rules. At least for now. Because when you’ve made it – you then get to write your own, Capricorn.

AQUARIUS

The new moon in your 9^th widens your perspective and brings a bigger picture into focus. This is your house of freedom, expansion and opportunity. Of long distance travel, learning and luck. It is also your house of the Power of One. Who makes it happen, Aquarius? With Pluto now in permanent residence in your sign, you should not hesitate with your answer.

You are awakening to new possibilities. And powered by your source. This is now the time to stop thinking or even over-thinking, and simply act. Take that first step on the 1000 mile journey. Or if you have lost your momentum, to re-start it. The moon wants you to simply keep moving forward and exploring. You are headed in the right direction when it comes to those big dreams, projects and plans. And if you are suddenly struck by the idea that you have been pursing the wrong goal or headed the wrong way – this new moon allows you to course correct. And simply see yourself as richer and more capable for your experience.

This is your house of long distance travel and people and places overseas. If you are not headed to the airport passport in hand now, the world may come knocking on your door in some way. From that Airbnb guest to someone far, far away you connect with right on your home turf. To your mind exploring topics or even beliefs from other countries. And yes, there’s no better new moon than this under which to research that bucket list trip. Plans set in motion under it can have a lucky knack of being lived out later. Pack your bags.

What you don’t do is clingy, needy or restrictive under this new moon. In love you’ll need a certain amount of freedom. Or simply feeling you are free but choosing to be with that person because they are your wild world waiting to be explored. This is a new moon under which to take a chance. Perhaps simply on yourself or your ideas. Or discovering just what may be possible if you dared to try. This new moon is an invitation – not a compulsory activity. It gently pushes you out of your comfort zone and tells you to go see what’s just outside of it. But only you can go there, Aquarius. Who decides? You do.

PISCES

Here’s the secret to the new moon energy in your house of change and transformation. Don’t resist it, Pisces. What you resist, persists. And pro-tip now you have Pluto in permanent residency in Aquarius and your 12^th house – the more you resist, the more Pluto doubles down. So, your best strategy now is not resisting change or trying to control outcomes. It’s to ride the storm front and yell: Bring it on!

The moment we do that, all struggle stops. This new moon asks if you trust yourself enough to let go? So if you are clinging to the status quo, trying to force an outcome or have been putting all your energy into either resisting a change or bringing one about – without success, why not simply release and then see what happens? Chances are at the very least you will reclaim all that wasted energy. And at the best you end up with the change you need. That is of course, very different to the change you believe you want. But seeing as change is inevitable, what have you got to lose?

See this as a trust exercise between yourself and the universe. And yes, you’ve got this Pisces. Access to almost limitless resources within you. Sacred and eternal. Yes, it is safe to surrender. For some, change may appear in the form of access to more financial resources, a settlement, payout or an ending or transition in a relationship. Don’t stand in its way now. You’re days away from being released into something new. And in a cycle where destiny is making itself felt. And there’s really only one way it does that. You got it now. Change.
