This week is marked by the New Moon from October 2 to October 10 and the first quarter moon from October 10 to October 17. It is the perfect time to see progress in the projects you started during the New Moon. The rising energy of the moon favors growth and expansion, giving you the necessary momentum to move forward with your goals and objectives.
How Yom Kippur and the New Moon Affect Your Personal Growth
In addition, this week is crucial due to Yom Kippur (October 11 and 12) and Shabbat Teshuvah (the Shabbat before Yom Kippur), which highlight the importance of introspection and spiritual renewal. During these days, the astrological climate encourages you to use the introspection brought on by planetary transits to reflect on your actions and set new intentions for the future.
Influence of the Sun in Libra
The Sun continues its transit through Libra, the sign of balance, justice and harmony. This influence highlights the importance of seeking balance in your personal and professional relationships. The Sun in Libra encourages diplomacy, negotiation and conflict resolution. In the context of Yom Kippur, this energy helps you reflect on your interactions and seek justice and fairness in your relationships.
Movements of Mercury and Venus
Mercury is in Libra until October 13, promoting balanced and diplomatic communication. After that, Mercury moves into Scorpio, creating a deeper and more transformative focus in your communications. This transit may bring hidden issues to the surface, allowing for a more intense exploration and a greater understanding in your conversations and mental processes. Mercury’s influence intensifies the need for introspection and sincerity in your communications.
Venus is also in Scorpio, intensifying your emotions and encouraging you to seek authentic and deep relationships. This transit is ideal for addressing emotional conflicts and deepening your personal connections. The influence of Venus in Scorpio urges you to work on transformation and authenticity in your relationships.
Action of Mars in Cancer
Mars in Cancer directs your actions toward home and family, influencing you to act based on your emotional needs. This transit may increase the need to protect and care for your loved ones and could also trigger more intense emotional responses in matters related to home. It’s a good time to address family issues and take steps to protect what you value in your private life.
Expansion with Jupiter in Gemini
Jupiter in Gemini expands your opportunities for communication and learning. Jupiter’s energy favors curiosity, the exchange of ideas and the exploration of new perspectives. This week is favorable for seeking creative solutions and connecting with others on projects that require collaboration and communication. Jupiter’s expansion also supports reflection and learning, both of which are key in the period leading up to Yom Kippur.
Daily Influence of the Moon
The Moon, being the fastest-moving celestial body, influences your daily energy. Its position changes quickly, offering unique opportunities and challenges throughout the week. Let’s take a look at how the Moon’s position will impact your energy and how you can make the most of these changes:
- Monday and Tuesday (Moon in Sagittarius): encourages you to expand your mind and seek new experiences. It’s an ideal time to explore new ideas and embrace adventure.
- Wednesday and Thursday (Moon in Capricorn): supports practical decision-making and managing responsibilities. It’s the right time to set long-term goals and work with discipline.
- Friday and Saturday (Moon in Aquarius): drives you to innovate and connect with the community. It’s a good time to collaborate on group projects and seek creative solutions.
Conclusion and Opportunity for Spiritual Growth
The week of October 6 to October 12 is a period of adjustment and growth, marked by the influence of important planetary movements and significant events. October 12 marks the Hilulah (anniversary of the passing) of Rav Yehuda Ashlag, founder of the Kabbalah Center. The energy of this day can enhance your opportunity for spiritual growth, aligning with the influence of Saturn and Neptune in Pisces.
Take advantage of this week to balance your relationships, delve into self-exploration and move forward with clarity and purpose in your goals.
