On Saturday, October 10, 2026, the new moon in Libra will bring love, harmony, and authenticity into the spotlight, asking you a very pointed question: is your heart really in it? For this new moon, I pulled the Knight of Wands as the collective card. Strong Libra winds intensify an undercurrent of fire (Saturn in Aries), and the vibe is bringing in an overhaul of everything unbalanced.

Saying You Love It Isn’t the Same as Showing It

When it comes to what you’re trying to manifest, it’s time to get real. Consider whether you’re truly bringing the energy to the table that’s needed to make it happen. To say you love something and to actually put your energetic love into something are two very different things.

Also, get real about what stories from the past might be holding you back in the present moment. Libra’s tarot card is Justice, which calls for unapologetic truth. If you can be totally honest with yourself under this new moon, your relationships and passions will benefit immensely.

Then, think about the ways you currently give and receive love. What interrupts the flow? If there’s a lack of reciprocity, or it feels like insecurity is running the show, decide now that it’s time for something to change.

The Past Wants Another Word

With Venus in retrograde, be wary of the past coming back around for you to confront. Think about what you’re ready to leave behind, so that you may create better habits around boundaries, communication, and pleasure.

While reconciliation will be available to some, for most of you there’s a healthy grieving process occurring. You’re shedding the weight of thinking things could have ended any differently. In the process, you’re showing gratitude to the versions of yourself that survived the pain, gifting your present self with deeper alignment in your passions and relationships.

Call yourself out for your relational habits rooted in trauma. Go after the life you truly want. Love fiercely, fairly, and freely. And know that you’re loved, too.

Aries: Take the Good. Leave the Rest.

7th House | 6 of Swords & 6 of Cups

Aries, the new moon in Libra transits your 7th house of committed partnerships. You received the 6 of Swords and the 6 of Cups. Likely, you’re in a time of transition, or preparing to enter one. You’re heavily considering the role your upbringing has played in the grand scheme of your life. As a result, there’s considerable motivation to leave behind old patterns in order to protect your relationships. The life you’re creating is vastly different from the one you were born into. Set intentions around taking the good and leaving the rest behind.

Taurus: You’re Getting Out of Your Own Way

6th House | The Fool & The Hanged Man

Taurus, this new moon in Libra transits your 6th house of routines, work, and health. The Fool and the Hanged Man indicate a chance to get out of a rut you’ve been stuck in. This feels like a sudden shift in perspective: realizing the one thing you’ve been doing wrong and a solution to fix it. An aha moment is available. Suddenly, you’re ready to get out of your own way. Set intentions around seeing the light.

Gemini: Give Yourself Something to Get Excited About

5th House | Knight of Wands & The Moon

Gemini, this new moon transits your 5th house of creativity and pleasure. The Knight of Wands pushes you to set something in motion that you’re really fired up about. Lean into play under this new moon. Don’t hold back. Instead, take inspired action. With the Moon card, cut through illusions and deception from your own mind. The mind will come up with a million reasons why you can’t do something, but you have all the power. Set intentions around embracing your desires.

Cancer: The Past Doesn’t Get to Pick Your Next Partner

4th House | 2 of Cups & 5 of Cups

Cancer, the new moon in Libra is awakening your 4th house of roots & family. The 2 of Cups & 5 of Cups combo feels like freedom from the grief and disappointment of the past, allowing for total trusting surrender in a new connection. Whether you’ve just found your person or are still looking, know that by transmuting the pain from past connections or your upbringing, you’ve given yourself the gift of allowing yourself to love and be loved again. Set intentions around trusting that you are worthy of love.

Leo: They Can’t Read Your Mind

3rd House | The Star & Judgement

Leo, it’s time to vocalize your newfound hope. This new moon transits your 3rd house of communication, and you received the Star and Judgement cards. Something is clicking for you right now: big time. Nothing can permeate through this shield you’ve built. Remember that unless you vocalize your wants and needs, others have no way of knowing how to show up for you. Destiny is calling, and you’re listening. Set intentions around initiating conversations that bring you closer to your goals and dreams.

Virgo: Your Cash Flow Has Your Attention

2nd House | 9 of Cups & King of Wands

Virgo, your cash flow is under the microscope as this new moon in Libra transits your 2nd house. The 9 of Cups and the King of Wands serve as a firm reminder that if there’s something you’re dissatisfied with in your current circumstances, you have all the power in the world to make a shift. Higher-ups or society at large may seem to hold all the power, but don’t give away yours so easily. Set intentions around bringing more love into the equation. Do what actually feels good: you’re allowed that right.

Libra: What Do You Think?

1st House | Queen of Swords & 3 of Cups

Libra, this new moon transits your 1st house of self and identity. Consider your power as a direct, fair, compassionate communicator. You have a way of delivering wisdom that comes off as loving and gentle. People are willing to receive your criticism because somehow, you know how to make others feel empowered when you point out their faults. At the same time, it’s important that you consider your own thoughts and feelings above those of the people you surround yourself with. Set intentions around checking in with your center and making choices that are right for you.

Scorpio: That Desire Deserves Your Attention

12th House | 3 of Wands & The Empress

Scorpio, as the new moon transits your 12th house of privacy and the subconscious mind, you may be hearing whispers of deeply rooted desires that deserve your attention. The 3 of Wands feels like adventure beckoning you. Meanwhile, The Empress knows you need adventure to feel fulfilled. What can you begin to set in motion right now that will help you go after your dreams? Set intentions around honoring your need to live life to the fullest.

Sagittarius: Let Someone Take Care of You

11th House | Queen of Pentacles & Strength

Sagittarius, this new moon in Libra is touching on your 11th house of friendships. Now’s a good time to remember that when you’re feeling low, you have good people around you who know how to lift you up. You know how to take care of yourself, of course, but don’t convince yourself that you have to carry everything alone. The strongest people are also the most vulnerable, as Strength reminds you. Set intentions around letting others care for you.

Capricorn: Everyone Doesn’t Need a Vote

10th House | 3 of Cups & Knight of Pentacles

Capricorn, the new moon in Libra is transiting your 10th house of career and reputation. With the 3 of Cups and the Knight of Pentacles, your challenge right now is to rein in overindulgence, whether that’s substances, food, or the opinions of others. After all, you don’t need everyone’s input before you invest yourself into something. Set an intention to eliminate unnecessary distractions, lovingly, as you enter a more empowered era of life.

Aquarius: The Distractions Are Getting Expensive

9th House | 7 of Cups & 8 of Pentacles

Aquarius, the new moon in Libra is shining a light on your 9th house of travel, philosophy, and study. There’s an obvious choice paralysis that comes along with the 7 of Cups. With the 8 of Pentacles, bright and shiny distractions may pull you away from diligence and consistency right now. Instead, focus on building your future with the people and projects that are deeply meaningful to you. Set intentions around being stronger than the distractions standing in your way.

Pisces: Give Yourself Some Credit

8th House | 6 of Wands & The Hierophant

Pisces, as the new moon transits your 8th house of sex, shared finances, and assets, you deserve to give yourself a pat on the back. The key is realizing that your pleasure and your ability to receive abundance are directly tied. The 6 of Wands reminds you to celebrate yourself, and the Hierophant indicates that regardless of the beliefs you grew up around, you’ve always known how to find your own path. Set intentions around indulgence under this new moon.
