Sept 17 at 7:00am eastern time: NEW MOON in UTTARA PHALGUNI: GIVE and RECEIVE HELP and SUPPORT

Throughout September, we encounter major planetary energy shifts which play out in our physical, emotional, spiritual and mental spaces. The upcoming New Moon is in 0°52 of sidereal Virgo in the beautiful nakshatra (Vedic sign) Uttara Phalguni, which means “latter red one” in Sanskrit, goes straight to the heart.

It connects to friendship, marriage and the abundance we receive from our relationships. A sign whose symbol is the legs of the marriage bed, this New Moon reminds us that even in challenging times such as now, we need to make it a priority to rest and support ourselves and others in healing.

Having been through so much already, this mid-point of September is a time to revisit our relationships, many of which may have changed as we each shift alongside the planets. It asks us to simply remember what it is like to be in a space of love and intimacy, and that our unions and relationships play important healing roles in our lives.

The “work” to be done for this New Moon is to reach out to loved ones, to reconnect if it feels appropriate, and to lend a helping hand – or perhaps to receive one.
