October already!!
This year has gone sooo quickly, we need to catch our breath and pause for a while.
With Mabon (Autumn Equinox) at the end of last month, all the changes that the Eclipses brought (how did that sit with you?) the coming New Moon in Libra, it is the perfect time to stop and take stock.
In Medical Astrology Libra is all to do with the Kidneys, Large Intestines, Lungs, Skin, Bladder and the Urinary system. With the Autumn Equinox it is a good time to cleanse and support the Immune system, strengthening it for the coming colder, wetter months ahead.
Hydration is key. As the temperatures start sinking we don't reach for the water bottle as often as in the summer. Our skin, lymphatic system, kidneys and our very cells need fluid to stay strong and do the jobs they are meant to do. We wouldn't drive our cars with no oil in them, the engine would seize up - or think cake mix, if there's not enough fluid the mixture it is gakky - that's how your body will be if it's not hydrated - GAKKY GAKKY :-) yuk!
So New Moon - new routine, warm water is better for our body, even better warm water with lemon in every morning detoxes our liver and gives the system a good flush releasing all the gunk and so strengthening all the organs in our bodies.
Water filled foods, leafy lettuces or greens, cucumber, celery, apples etc. are beneficial too, especially if you're not good with sipping water throughout the day.
Indulgent, sweet tooth Venus rules Libra and she is in retrograde at the moment encouraging us to reach for the biccys and cakes...in moderation please, sugar is the first thing to clog our systems up. Watch the binge eating as weight will be put on.
So, lecture over :-), just use this Libra New Moon to keep yourself, or bring yourself into balance so you can waltz through my least favorite time of the year - cold, wet, dark, WINDY - HATE the wind - with a smile on your face and energy to bounce through it.
Good luck.
