While Libra is most known for qualities such as fairness, justice and balance, this zodiac sign, which rules partnerships, also relies heavily on the aesthetic in its home and life, as it helps you embrace a more content state of mind.
To feel content, you must also create a balance that nurtures peace. To be balanced is to understand your priorities and needs and act accordingly. The biggest hindrance to doing so often is when you live outside of your truth, attempting to be or do something solely so you live up to the desires of others.
While Libra is helping you focus on what needs to be done to achieve balance so that you can focus more on your partnership and the comfort of your home, the Moon is helping guide you into your emotional truth. This is the part of you that knows whenever you betray yourself for another, try to keep the peace or choose the path of least controversy.
Here though, Libra lends its soul lesson to you as you are encouraged to wake up to the reality that you can never attain peace in your life by compromising the one found within. As much as you desire balanced or cohesive partnerships in your professional and personal life, that can only be achieved by first honoring yourself. When you do, it becomes easy to recognize what is in alignment with you and when you feel out of alignment yourself.
Manifesting with the Libra energy can incorporate the element of air, which rules this zodiac sign. Save your rituals for the evening hours when the Moon will shine bright in the nighttime sky as it moves through its waxing crescent phase. During the waxing crescent phase of the Moon, it's essential to repeat or write down your New Moon affirmation as you visualize and focus on one thing you can create now to reach fruition more readily.
By embracing the power of honoring your truth, you can step into a place of balance where you recognize this is the birthplace of all you want to manifest.

Repeat your affirmation, allowing yourself to visualize a feeling of balance in your life and then safely burn the paper and sprinkle the cooled ashes to the wind using the flame of the white candle.
