New Moon Thursday, Sept. 14, 2023 at 9:40 p.m. ET in sidereal Leo, Uttara Phalguni: Connections and Community

The upcoming New Moon will be in Uttara Phalguni, “the Star of Patronage,” named after its ruling deity, Aryaman. This New Moon is symbolized by the legs of the marriage bed, encouraging connection and rejuvenation. It’s a kind and compassionate Moon with a strong focus on supporting our loved ones. Being a helper and a healer, Uttara Phalguni highlights the basic human needs to be seen and heard. This New Moon time encourages us to take on the qualities of the thoughtful, uplifting partner we would be grateful to have at our side.

While this is a generous and compassionate New Moon, it is making connections with almost all of the planets (Sun, Merc R, Sat R, Jup R, Rahu), so it is being influenced by and taking all of their varied energies into consideration. That shows us there’s a lot to work through and digest. This Moon sign prioritizes rest and healthy relationships, and so is able to make wise choices. It’s important during this New Moon phase to pause and reflect on what makes the most sense in each moment.

Some questions to consider:

✨Do you need more rest?

✨Do you feel seen and heard?

✨How are your relationships doing right now?

✨What qualities do you need in a partner?

✨Are you embodying these ideals too?

✨Do you feel you have a lot going on?

✨Do you need help making decisions?

✨Are you able to decide what’s most supportive of you and your loved ones, and move away from what is just distraction?

✨What does community mean to you?
