And if you’re a person with a menstrual cycle, these cups are the perfect PMS treat and may even “keep PMS symptoms at bay,” Devon Loftus and holistic nutritionist Jenna Radomski write inThe Moon Cycle Cookbook.

A personal favorite of Radomski, these dark chocolate and almond butter cups are specifically ideal for the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle—the stage right before the your period begins, when all of those fun PMS symptoms emerge. (Oh and in case you’re wondering, there is an optimal way to eat for each phase of the menstrual cycle.)

“First, we call for dark chocolate, which not only offers a deep, rich flavor, but also provides magnesium, an essential mineral for hundreds of processes in our bodies,” Radomski tells mindbodygreen, “Calcium is another mineral with similar benefits for PMS symptoms, and almond butter contains much more calcium than other nut butters.” The chocolate and almond butter also provide iron and zinc, she shares.

Even if you’re not approaching PMS, this recipe is the perfect satisfying chocolate treat to have on hand for anytime you need (or just want) one.

Every 30 days or so, the Sun visits a new zodiac sign. During this “season,” everyone feels the energy of this prevailing astrological sign, no matter what your Sun sign horoscope may be.

Peaceful, harmonizing Libra is the second of the zodiac’s three air signs and part of the “cardinal” quality (or triplicity). Cardinal signs (the others are Aries, Cancer, and Capricorn) are leadership-driven, discerning, and can even be a bit entitled at times. Cardinal signs begin every season, so they are known as initiators and pioneers—but this can also give them an alpha air when taken too far.

As we bid adieu to the efficiency and detailed focus of Virgo season, it’s time to welcome more pleasure and communal approaches into our worlds. Virgo helped us spot the flaws; now Libra season invites us to join forces and patch up the cracks, working in synergy and tuning in to what each one another needs.

Here’s how to harmonize and bring balance to your life during Libra season 2021:
