The Moon today remains hidden. After having entered the new Moon phase yesterday and having completely darkened its visible face, this Monday the light of the Sun begins to bathe it again, but so timidly that it is still not appreciated. Furthermore, the Moon, now in visible new moon phasestill hides below the horizon very shortly after the Sun has set, which prevents us from seeing it in the night sky, but it leaves us with some ideal conditions to contemplate the brilliance of the planets and stars that populate the celestial vault tonight.

On this date, The ancient Celts celebrated Mabon, the autumn equinox, a moment of absolute balance: night and day are in perfect equality, light and shadow dialogue in harmony. Today we give you the welcome to autumn with joy, aware that summer is definitely behind us and a new cycle begins.

The autumn equinox, the third milestone of the September lunar calendar after the two recent eclipses, is determined by the entry of the Sun into Libra that occurs today. Under the influence of Venus, guardian of beauty and justice, Libra guides us towards search for internal and external balance. The sky speaks in symbols, and through it we can perceive how the days are getting shorter, how the light becomes dimmer and softer, preparing the heart for calm of autumn.

Until October 23, the Sun will remain in Libra, marking a time of transition. Energy changes, temperatures drop, and Nature, in its wisdom, begins to let go of the old: the leaves fall, the colors transform into ocher, brown and gold. It is a invitation to let go also within usto find sweetness, balance and serenity in this gentle descent towards the seclusion of winter.
