How Earth's Temporary 2nd Moon Will Impact Zodiac Signs

Once in a blue moon, there's an energy-shifting celestial event for the zodiac signs.

And one of those rare times has come, considering an asteroid known as 2024 PT5—and nicknamed the "Mini Moon"—was captured by Earth's gravity and pulled into its orbit on Sept. 29. And since the object will continue orbiting alongside the moon until Nov. 25, psychic Ivana Naskova advised preparing to feel its effects over the next two months. 

"It's important to be patient and observe the outcomes and their potential impact on us," Ivana, who specializes in spiritual guidance at Nebula, exclusively told E! News. "Furthermore, since the Moon symbolizes emotions and self-reflection, its alignment with this asteroid is expected to greatly intensify feelings and emotional experiences."

And the Mini Moon—which is 33 feet wide—coincides with another planetary event that will only further increase the moon's influence on astrological signs: a solar eclipse, which occurs when the moon passes between the earth and the sun, causing the sun's image to be obscured from view temporarily.

You can make the most of the "intense energetic period" created by the combination of the second moon and the solar eclipse—which will begin at 12:50 p.m. ET and ends at 4:39 p.m. ET on Oct. 2—by recognizing that the event will “intensify our yearning for emotional validation” and will likely inspire “deeper introspection and a stronger desire for clarity and fresh starts,” according to the astrology expert.

"As a result," she continued, "it offers an ideal moment for individuals of all zodiac signs to engage in deep self-reflection and consider what they want to keep in their lives and what they need to let go of."

And there are few feelings that you can expect to reflect on the most, since the Mini Moon aligns with the Libra season—the period between Sept. 23 and Oct. 22—which, as Ivana put it, "embodies the pursuit of inner peace, harmony and balance in life." 

"This event will likely intensify our desire for balance and serenity," she said. "The moon and its surrounding celestial forces are deeply connected to our innermost emotions, representing aspects of ourselves that often stay hidden from the outside world."

So, what zodiacs will be most affected by the forthcoming Mini Moon? Ivana highlighted air signs Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, as well as earth signs Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. 

"They typically seek a strong sense of stability and grounding in their lives," the astrologer shared. "This effect will be most noticeable until Oct. 22, as the sun shifts from Libra to Scorpio."

Noting that Scorpio is a "water sign closely linked to the moon's energy," Ivana went on to predict that fellow water signs Cancer and Pisces may also find themselves "deeply immersed in their emotions."

"This heightened emotional state may deepen feelings, leading to a profound journey of self-discovery and reflection," she added. "During this time, there's a great opportunity for deep personal healing, self-care and meaningful self-improvement."

"The Autumn Equinox is about finding balance in your close personal and intimate relationships," says Ivana Naskova, a psychic at Nebula, a platform offering astrology guidance for relationships. So if you're an Aries, Naskova believes you will spend time "reflecting on this area as you feel a deeper need to get closer to those who matter most."

Astrology expert Evan Nathaniel Grim notes that Aries strive for greater balance in their relationships—whether platonic, professional or romantic—so the Sept. 22 equinox will highlight those alliances.

"Some of these partnerships could be quite powerful and help them achieve financial success on the day of the equinox specifically," the reader—whose fans include Patrick Dempsey—tells E!. "These experiences could give Aries a reprieve from any potential tension they may be encountering within their home or with their family."

"The Autumn Equinox brings a time of reflection in your everyday life, where you feel an increased desire for a more balanced and harmonious lifestyle," Naskova tells Tauruses. "Organizing yourself and your to-do list will be a top priority."

Grim adds, "Tauruses can achieve harmony with their daily routines and wellness practices. They can also press ahead with key work projects or build new connections with co-workers."

People born between April 20 and May 20 may also be "experiencing conflict with siblings or neighbors at the same time," Grim says. "Ultimately, committing to healthy routines will set them on a good track."

Since Geminis can find joy and balance in their creative endeavors, Grim notes they "will likely feel the need to express themselves freely and creatively."

"Geminis have had a lot of pressure in their careers lately, so this equinox is an opportunity to find a creative outlet to mitigate this pressure," the Inner Worlds Astrology founder explains. "They may even identify an opportunity to integrate creativity into their existing career."

That’s why Naskova says this is a time for Geminis to lean into their creativity by “enjoying hobbies and interests that help you stay calm and centered."

Grim's reading for the crab? "Cancers will be focused on creating a more balanced environment at home or with their families," he states. "They will emphasize their family-related or domestic relationships. Cancers could also invite people to their home for a social gathering. They also may be experiencing tension and conflict in other areas of life, making it all the more important to find balance at home."

And Cancers will also feel a "desire to pause for a moment and focus your time and energy on your loved ones and your home," according to Naskova. As she notes, "This is your safe place, where you’ll feel most comfortable and centered."

"This time is ideal for smoothing over difficult communication and overcoming arguments or conflicts with the people around you," Naskova tells Leos. "You’ll be much more diplomatic, and your strong ego won't get in the way."

For Grim, he foresees that Leos will either enter a "more social period" or find that their "intellectual curiosity will be enhanced."

"Leos could engage in more daily conversations with people, especially those in their immediate vicinity," he tells E!. "Leos also have the option of traveling or even engaging in creative writing. Leos might also be focused on their educational path."

For Virgos, the Autumn Equinox is a perfect time to obtain balance in your finances and reflect on important monetary decisions, according to Naskova.

"You’ll take time to plan for your future security," she notes, "as this brings you a sense of calm and balance."

Virgos can further try to achieve harmony during the equinox by "investing" in their natural talents, as Grim put it.

"Virgos will also be shining a light on their personal values and seeking to embody those values in their everyday lives," he explains. "Others could use this time to focus on boosting their sense of self-worth. They also may indulge in material pleasures or focus on improving their financial prospects."

"The Autumn Equinox announces your season, and of course, this is the most powerful time for you," Naskova shares. "Along with doing some serious inner work, you’ll tap into your inner powers and exude confidence."

Grim agrees this will be an influential time for people born between Sept. 23 and Oct. 22.

"Libras will be concentrated on asserting their independent selves and worrying less about others’ opinions," he says. "Libras can express their authentic identity with the Sun entering their sign. They will also likely be proving themselves in their career during this time, making the equinox a very powerful transition point for them overall."

"Scorpios should harness the equinox to create a sense of balance in their spiritual life," according to Grim. "Scorpios would benefit from taking time to relax and recuperate before their season begins one month later."

He also recommends turning your attention toward "creative pursuits" and other "behind-the-scenes activities" in life.

As for Naskova, she tells Scorpios, "Your subconscious mind is where most of the work will be done during this time. You will reflect on your goals and aspirations and look for your purpose in this world. This is the perfect time to focus on nurturing and healing."

Here's your reading from Naskova: "The Autumn Equinox highlights your friendships, relationships and people you see as family. You’ll finally show deep appreciation for having them in your life, reflecting on these relationships and building transformative connections that help you feel centered."

During this time, Grim says Sagittariuses will feel “more social” and should use this period to establish peace and harmony among their friends.

"Sagittariuses can also direct more energy towards networking or community activities,” he adds. “Their flourishing social lives could help alleviate any stress they may be experiencing at home or with family."

"While other Zodiac signs may be slowing down," Naskova says of Capricorns, "you’ll still feel the need to get work done. This is because the Autumn Equinox places focus on your career area, so having balance here will be the most important to you."

Indeed, Capricorns have an "amazing opportunity" to build professional relationships and improve their career trajectory during this time, according to Grim.

"Capricorns will be able to express themselves with ease in their careers and will be able to work towards their goals effectively," he notes. "They can stand out in the public eye even. Other Capricorns may benefit from positive dynamics with parents or authority figures."

The Autumn Equinox will make you Aquarians "feel more in touch with yourself and heighten your spiritual side," according to Naskova. "You will do some deep search for answers that can help you see your future and your place in it more clearly."

It's not only the only kind of learning that is recommended during this period.

"Aquariuses can find harmony in any higher educational environments or while traveling long distances," Grim adds. "Aquariuses could also arrive at a more balanced philosophy and worldview. This equinox should help them derive new insights and tap into a larger perspective. Some of them could even shine in a teaching-related role."

Your reading from Naskova: "The Autumn Equinox helps you unpack your deepest emotions so you can do some inner work, reflect, and deal with them. This is an incredibly sensitive time for personal transformation and growth."

Grim similarly predicts that Pisces can "illuminate aspects of their subconscious and do shadow work" this weekend.

What does this mean for romance and finances? He says Pisces will be able to use this equinox to "pursue new financial or investing goals or find a more balanced investing strategy."

As for their love lives, Grim adds, "Other Pisces may focus on merging assets with a partner, and some could also have new intimate experiences with a partner."
