You didn’t need Jenn Tran’s season of The Bachelorette to know that drama can and will find you anywhere. But like Jenn, sometimes it’s best just to brush everything off and move on in life—and the universe is pushing for you to adopt that attitude right now.

It’s all thanks to the new moon in Libra, which is taking place on October 2, 2024. During this new moon, you’re going to crave peace and harmony, running at a full sprint in the other direction when drama surfaces, according to Donna Page, a certified astrologer in Atlanta.

Naturally, it’s a lot more involved than that. Here’s what else your zodiac sign can expect from the new moon in Libra.

What does the new moon in Libra mean for your sign?

Let’s back up a sec: The moon goes through different cycles, and a new moon is when it looks all but invisible from the earth. Each new moon syncs up with a different zodiac sign, creating a special vibe that can influence what you think and how you act around this time.

This particular new moon is in the sign of Libra. “It’s about relationships—how are you relating to others?” Page says. With that, you’ll stress some serious peace and harmony in all aspects of your life, whether it’s letting things slide when your partner can’t seem to move beyond an allergy to making the bed or chalking up a rude comment your sister made to her simply having a bad day. At the same time, you’re no doormat. If you find that someone in your life is consistently toxic, you’ll take a step back from that emotional chaos.

Libra is ruled by Venus, which is a planet that wants you to be happy, Page explains. “You’ll want to have luxury and a good time,” she says. “It will become very apparent when you’re working too much.” So, don’t be surprised if you finally decide to use that PTO you’ve been saving up to book a sweet trip someplace amazing. You deserve it, after all.

At the same time, Venus will push for intimacy in your life. You’ll crave a deeper connection with people, whether it’s your S.O. of several years or hooking up with someone new. But you don’t want anyone random sharing your bed—you’ll need to feel you can relate on a deeper level than just the physical.

Finally, because this is Libra we’re talking about, balance will be a top priority for you. “Anything that doesn’t feel equal will raise a red flag for you,” Page says. Like, you’re all about avoiding drama, but if you’ve picked up the takeout bill for your crew several times in a row, you won’t be above gently asking your buddies to step up for the next round.

The new moon will impact all zodiac signs, but Page says Libra and Aries will feel it the most.

How will the new moon in Libra impact the rest of your year?

Learning to put drama in the backseat will be incredibly freeing for you, making you want to minimize it again in the future. While drama will inevitably seep in here and there, you’ll do your best to keep it under control in the future.

Also, acknowledging when you’ve been burning the candle at both ends is a powerful emotional tool. You’ll start doing regular check-ins with yourself going forward to make sure you aren’t constantly throttling on the verge of burnout.

Finally, while you can’t make intimate connections with others 24/7, you’ll be more prone to leaning into deeper relationships with new people you meet going forward. After all, surrounding yourself with people who get you can take you much farther in life than having some people around for the sake of numbers.

When is the next new moon?

The next new moon is on November 1 in the sign of Scorpio. During this new moon, you’ll feel the need to get deep into your feelings. For now, enjoy that drama-free bliss. It’s well deserved.
