The spirit of the New Moon guards the Law, reputation, and business relationships, encouraging us to confer and resolve formal affairs. However, upon misfortune, late October turns threats turn into actions, especially if someone loses their temper. Meanwhile, the upsurge of spiritual and mental energy will turn our eyes to occultism, mysteries underground and above. It turns determination into obsession, driving us mad in our quest, passion, and struggle, rendering us vulnerable at scenes of temptation, seduction, and corruption by inner demons and outer enemies. On this new moon, verisimilar aquatic spirits draw with pitchforks on stillness of lakes a Machieavellian motif: “the ends and forbidden desires justify the means”. Undercurrents of this New Moon can be used for bribery, blackmail, and vengeance. Succumbing to instincts, jealousy, and resentment, one may fall into the abyss of feelings. There is a risk of falling for bait – of phishing or interrogation, fleeting weakness, devil’s poison, or Bolotnitsa’s sowed seeds of doubt. One should navigate treacherous waters, with the help of a spellbound oar, or wager on a trustworthy, proved boatwoman. Internal honest and external integrity will help your canoe avoid dangerous whirlpools, while being aware of your own and others’ true motives is a must in October! This time works fine to conduct an independent investigation to clarify the background and latent circumstances. It is also good for secret alliances and affairs. October 29-30 and November 4-6 will usher in sudden change, increasing risk of accidents. This New Moon promises us the support of an influential ally, such as a mentor, parent, or local authority, or of a clan or an entire community, in ambiguous situations. It is ideal for channeling spiritual power on something meaningful within; for transformation of inferior gloom of possessive and depressive nature into altruistic, lucid, and creative vibrations, which will grant us the protection of the keen eye and the invisible hand of the Providence.
