A Parody of Peace: New Moon in Libra
Uranus and Eris make a radical team here to disrupt the status quo, to reveal the deep pain and trauma beneath, to give voice to the oppressed, to empower the disenfranchised. Opposite Libra, the harmony may be upset, but yet harmony is still the intention. The upset is necessary in order to find greater justice and freedom for all. If we stand with Libra in our desire for peace, harmony, and justice, then we must heed Uranus and Eris, we must acknowledge the radical injustice in the systems that are preserved for the sake of a parody of peace.

Uranus is the revolutionary, the activist, the firecracker, the terrorist, the fool. Trump has Uranus conjunct his sun. But we all have access to this energy of change, especially now. And we all have power (Jupiter square Pluto), especially together (Jupiter in Libra).

When in the North the leaves turn colour then fall, how can we but think of death? Scorpio knows death is no ending, but a transformation from one state to another. The Scorpio New Moon (exact at 10:38am PST, 6:38pm UK on October 30th) falls a day before Samhain, the halfway point between Summer and Winter, the liminal moment between life and death when the veil between worlds thins, and our ancestors are near.
