Welcome
Below you will find the details for the new Lunar Month.
The New Moon energy of each cycle, carries itself throughout the entire month, creating an underlying current that influences us on a deeper, more continuous level. Alongside this, we move through the daily lunar frequencies as they activate us—initiating embodiment, alchemy and integration with the themes of each gateway and supporting us in our evolutionary journey.
Each lunar day also holds a particular astrological frequency. You can think of this as layered influences moving together. The New Moon energy will be present throughout the month, interwoven with the daily astrological sign the Moon is moving through, shaping the subtle emotional and energetic landscape of each day.

🌑 NEW MOON IN LIBRA
Keeper of Conscious Relationship
The New Moon in Libra opens a new lunar cycle through the medicine of conscious relationship. Libra invites us to become more conscious of how we relate — to ourselves, to one another, and to Life. As an Air sign, she brings awareness to the patterns, perceptions, and choices that shape our relationships, while awakening our capacity for reciprocity, attunement, justice, and sacred balance.
But relationship extends far beyond how we relate to other people. We are in relationship with every aspect of ourselves — our bodies, our emotions, our inner world, our thoughts, our judgments, our persona, and even the way we perceive ourselves. Everything within our psyche exists within a field of relationship. The way we see, feel, think, and move through Life is shaped by how we are relating to what we encounter.
And we are continually in relationship with the world around us. Yet we have become severed from much of this relationship, learning to treat the living world as things and objects rather than as something we are in conscious relationship with. The sea, the water, the trees, the land, our homes, and the objects that accompany our everyday lives are part of the world with which we are continually exchanging. Even when we experience ourselves as separate, we are still in relationship — we are simply relating through separation.
The world around us and within us is alive, brewing with consciousness. Every aspect of nature, every cell within our bodies, and even those things we may not ordinarily consider conscious, participate within this living field of creation. What changes when we begin to meet our world this way? When we make our relationships conscious, and experience the beauty, the relating, the exchange consciously with the Life within us and all around us?
This Libra Moon cycle invites us to become aware of these relationships without judgment — to notice how we relate to ourselves, to others, and to the living world. Are we honoring the inherent Soul of creation around us? Are we listening? Are we participating consciously in the relationships already taking place?
Libra’s medicine also restores our relationship with beauty — the capacity to recognize harmony without requiring perfection and to perceive what remains beautiful even amid complexity and chaos. This month, we practice conscious relationship with our inner and outer worlds, allowing ourselves to truly see the beauty, aliveness, and consciousness woven through all of Life.

Daily Reflection
Lunar Medicine Daily Reflection
At this New Moon, we begin a new lunar journey into the mystery of conscious relationship — exploring how we relate to ourselves, to one another, to Life, and to the Sacred. The Dark Mother grounds this journey in belonging, awakening us to the living web of relationship already holding us: our bodies, the Earth, one another, and the greater mystery of Life. Here, we rest deeper harmony available in this gateway, in union with the darkness, and the Mother. We recognize that we are always in relationship with Her, and that establishes our belonging. There is an organic beauty in this relationship– the way the Dark Mother holds us, yet liberates us seemingly into our individuated self, to express ourselves freely. There is beauty in how we can feel held, and yet free, here, in this gateway, as we embody our own Dark Mother, within. Let us feel the safety while we anchor into the holy dark today.

Gateway
Root Gateway: Belonging- Wisdom- Union
In the dark cradle of this New Moon, the current rests in stillness—held within the womb of the Mother where all things return to their origin. Here the cycle completes and begins again in quiet union, where the soul remembers its place within the whole. This is a field of profound belonging, where ancient body-wisdom roots itself once more in the living ground of being. In this sacred no-thingness, every possibility rests unformed yet present, waiting in silence for the next expression of life to emerge.
Shadow Of the Gateway
Shadow of the Root Gateway
From Self-Blame (Root Gateway) to Wisdom
This shadow convinces us that everything is our fault—that we are the cause of pain, failure, or suffering in others. Rooted in centuries of scapegoating, persecution, and punishment, self-blame keeps us apologizing for simply existing. It disconnects us from the ground of our being and from the truth of our inherent worth.
The Medicine: When healed, self-blame transforms into sacred responsibility—a reclamation of our power to choose, speak, and act from embodied truth rather than inherited shame. From this place of rooted presence, we no longer carry the burdens of others, but walk in the grounded clarity of our own knowing. This is the beginning of Wisdom—not the wisdom of the intellect, that is knowledge, but the deep, earth-bound knowing that arises from integration, discernment, and self-trust.
Affirmation: I AM WISDOM, I BELONG, I AM IN UNION WITH THE UNIVERSE

Written Embodied Meditation
BreathWork
1. Place your hand on the corresponding physical location of today’s gateway. Feel the energy of your hands activating this gateway, as you slow down your breath and become present of your inner world.
2. Notice whether today is yin rising (front body) or yang descending (back body). Begin today’s breath rhythm, and focus the breath on the gateway either toward the front or the back of the body, Breathe slowly and mindfully, letting go of all other agendas, worries, judgments or concerns… giving yourself time to just be with your breath.
3. Continue this breath until you feel merged with the breath cycle, where the breath is breathing you—can be 5 min, 10 or 15 minutes.
Voice Activation
4. Pause for a few seconds as we shift into voice activation. Continue your hand placement in the corresponding gateway.
5. Gently begin to sound directly into the corresponding gateway, slowly… allowing the sound to move you. This is not performative, so it does not need to sound any particular way—no judgment, no good or bad. Allow your sound to come from deep within, organically, slow or fast, loud or low, high tone or low tone.
6. Continue the vocalization, until you naturally feel complete. Then allow yourself to pause and come into silence. Notice what has shifted; mentally, emotionally, physically somatically. Let yourself just observe—not making any conclusions. Allow yourself to be present, in silence, for a few minutes, just noticing.
Integration: Humming, Vision, Breath
7. Become aware of the body of the moon, at today’s phase.
8. Envision the body of the moon at the corresponding gateway in your body and allow yourself to breathe into Her.
9. With each breath, envision the body of the moon grow expanding larger and larger within you.
10. As you breathe, add in gentle humming with each exhale—allowing yourself to fully merge with Her body. Breathing slowly, humming gently and envisioning the moon growing with each breath.
11. As the moon grows, allow it to encompass your physical body completely, and grow past the physical boundaries of your body. Slowing and gently, through breath and humming, the moon ends up holding you—as you see yourself sitting within the body of the moon.
12. Continue a few breaths here, until you feel completely dissolved and merged with Her.
13. Allow the body of the moon to completely surround you, hold you, and nourish you.
14. After a few minutes allow yourself to come into completion, bowing in gratitude, to the moon, the Universe and Source Mother all around you.
15. Allow the gratitude to expand through your heart… and out in to the world.
