Three Days of Relational Chaos, One Genuinely Useful Seed
"You must learn a new way to think before you can master a new way to be." — Marianne Williamson
On the October 10th new moon, the transits that bookend it, the personalized horoscopes + unique tarot spread that are designed around these three days of cursed astrology offerings.
What's in this one: I walk you through three days of increasingly unhinged astro weather, October 9th through 11th, as one unfolding story, because in 2026 we ain’t getting that harmony/beauty seeking Libra respite we so desperately crave for and the sky clearly decided that instead of a single most ‘manifesting girlie’ lunation of the year, we actually needed was a whole cinematic arc.
We've got the Moon opposing Neptune and Saturn the day before (fog, machete, the Moon pretending this is fine), then the New Moon in Libra itself sextiling Jupiter in Leo while simultaneously Venus retrograde in Scorpio squares Mars in Leo aka the cosmic equivalent of trying to plant a beautiful garden while two people argue loudly next to you about who owns the soil. And then October 11th the Moon slides into Scorpio and lands directly on Venus retrograde as a bonus and slightly venomous emotional climax masterclass.
Come to see what it all means globally, where it's showing up in your personal life whether you invited it or not.. and how to actually surf through it instead of just treading water hoping to not slip under. Then every rising sign gets their own section tracing exactly how these transits move through your specific houses, what seed to plant at this New Moon, what to actually manifest and how to work with it practically, plus a mantra that doesn't make you cringe saying it out loud.
And at the end, a seven-card tarot spread built specifically for this lunation, with journaling prompts designed to make you think about the one thing you've been very carefully not thinking about.
The whole thing is quite long, quite honest, occasionally rude about the state of geopolitics, and very much here for you. Let's go.

Honesty window, feel free to scroll by, as Libra would have it, or get fucking angry with me, as per Venus in Scorpio retrograde instructions..But if you stay, we will be honest about the room on fire we found ourselves in.
The Iran war has cost the global economy over a trillion dollars this year and we’re still watching people in suits argue on television about whether it technically counts as a war. The AI bubble that everyone with a LinkedIn premium account swore was the future of human civilization is making some extremely apocalyptic pivots in order to not burst just yet. Bubbles always eventually do. Measles deaths are up to a total unnecessary number beyond one thousand because a complete moron in charge of health regulations for the whole of US says trust AI over doctors, France is experiencing student demonstrations too hardcore even for France, and a fucking plague in Siberia killed a 28 year old scientist, with hundreds of people now on lockdown.
And you, gorgeous exhausted human, are trying to figure out how to feel okay in a body that has been running on cortisol and dark humour since roughly 2019.
Into this absurd late-stage civilizational decay, the social media-fed collapse of basic human decency & a very intentional and brazen dismantling of basic human liberties, the New Moon in Libra arrives on October 10th and asks you, with total cosmic sincerity, to please consider balance.
I know. I know.
But here’s the thing about Libra that its reputation consistently undersells: Libra doesn’t ask for balance because it’s chronically conflict-avoidant (although..) or naive..Libra is a sign that has looked directly at the scales and understood that the alternative to trying is just tipping.
And the next three days, October 9th through 11th, are going to make that choice feel very immediate and very personal, because the sky is staging an intervention.
Let me walk you through it.

Three Days, One Story
October 9th: The Pressure Builds
The day before the New Moon, the Moon is already in Libra and it is absolutely not having a quiet evening. It’s opposing Neptune and Saturn both in Aries, trining Pluto in Aquarius and Uranus in Gemini, and sextiling Mars in Leo, which is a fucking ton of planetary energy for the end of your work week.
The Neptune opposition is…
