Diwali New Moon in Swati nakshatra

The new Moon cycle lessons are the reliance of self and the strength found in it. Reading the chart from the Moon, the Moon's depositor Venus is 3rd from the Moon, indicating a lot of motivational energy, courage and collaboration will bring gains. 

 Jupiter and Saturn both 4th from the Moon indicating nourishment in following our individual desires, giving us comfort and satisfaction. Jupiter and Saturn are weighty planets indicating concrete events, and in this chart they add the factor of solid motion by following our hearts desire. 

The new Moon chart also indicates a greater level of refinement in our ability to communicate and to structure and express ideas, as the Sun, Moon, and Mars align in Swati Nakshatra, a lunar mansion with a connection with Saraswati, goddess of speech, art and creative expression. 

This New Moon marks the celebration of the festival of Diwali, the victory over darkness within and the radiant awareness of one’s own inner light. Today’s celebration invokes and attracts Lakshmi’s bountiful presence, prosperity, generosity and beauty through devotion and the connection to greater wisdom.  

On this day the lighting of lamps opens to threshold of new beginnings, offering sweets brings bounty. Visiting and connecting friends and family adds to our wealth.

Clean your space, pay attention especially to your front door (this is your ascendant in Vastu) decorate it to allow Lakshmi to enter your home effortlessly.  

Let us all remember on this day to pray for others, for the world that we all prosper, we all find the light and our inner and outer resources.  Making a grand inward leap into greater wisdom and the creative flow.


I wish you love and luck during the New Moon cycle
