New Moon, Full Moon: How Will The Moon Impact October 2024?

A New Moon under the sign of renewal, the last Super Moon of the year, and a lunar eclipse to boot: what do the phases of the Moon have in store for us this October 2024?

She has nothing to envy Jules Verne: the Moon goes around the zodiac in 28 days. As a result, it is she who sets the pace for daily horoscopes, weekly horoscopes, and, of course, lunar horoscopes. This month of October 2024 is no exception to the rule. Between a New Moon that invites us to start again on a healthy basis and a full-bodied Full Moon that confronts us with our past: it is a new cycle that is being prepared. A sort of Samhain Advent calendar (the witches’ new year) with two boxes.
