THREE WORDS: BALANCE, COMFORT AND RETROSPECT

Many people talk about "balance" in the Libra moon...and in my
estimation it is an easily misunderstood term for this moon (as well
as sign). It is not the balance that we quickly think of, the balance
that allows us to balance out our lives. It is *not* a balance that
we might not readily see but rather a reminder to STAY balanced and
to strive towards it. Many Librans are multifaceted in their
personality and so is Mother Moon in her moon sign as well. Take it
as it comes, do not expect too much and go with the flow. These
attitudes will make it easier.

It is also a time of retrospect, looking back on past times...and
seeing what still needs to be done, what has been done and estimating
your pleasure (or displeasure) in how things are going. Libra moon is
often a time of look at bills and dreams. This makes it a good
transitional moon from Virgo, which is so goal oriented. These two
moons, hand-in-hand, can really help people get things done.

Libra is also a time of comfort, where people are comfortable with
lying around reading the Sunday paper rather than saying to
themselves that they should be doing something else. It is a time
where people are comfortable in their shoes and who they are and
leads to a very self confident time.

MAGIC DURING THIS MOON:
Although the "traditional" color to use during Libra is pink, I tend
to think to use purple, white and green. This, of course is a matter
of personal preference, but because red (and all her shades) are
associated with love, and this is not really something that is at the
heart of the Libra moon, I tend to shy away from the use of them and
reserve them for times of 'need'. Use citrus scents such as lemon,
lime and tangerine to add to your workings and aromatherapy during
this time. Citrus is very powerful in it's cleansing aspects and that
is much what the Libra moon is about...moving onto the next step in
the picture...closing out accounts and starting again. Any waning
moon magic done during the Libra moon is powerful stuff indeed.

LIBRA MOON AFFIRMATION
Libra Moon
I give and receive love without conditions.
I do not need others to make me complete.
I am able to communicate and work well with others.
I am happy to be a loved and loving being.
