Libra
SEP 23 - OCT 22
Rest and Recharge
Libra, it's the calm before your birthday season storm, as the sun spends most of the month in your 12th house of endings, your subconscious and far away places. You’re preparing to step into the spotlight, but for now, you need to rest and recharge so that you're ready to go full speed ahead later in the month.
Uranus goes retrograde on September 1, in your 8th house of shared resources, sex and transformation, and this is a time to assess how far you've come in relation to changing some or all of these topics. You've likely made great strides, and now you can start to visibly see how some of these changes manifest in your life. You may need to revisit some important issue in your financial life, like taxes, debts, or even reassess how your finances are being managed with a partner.
The Virgo new moon on September 2 stations in your 12th house of endings. New moons are usually about planting new seeds, starting something new, and moving forward on a new path over the six months ahead. But for you, this may be a new moon that is more about release and letting go. How can you let things go in your life that no longer serve you, so that you can move forward and propel into a new arena? During this new moon, the sun will oppose Saturn, which is currently transiting your sixth house of daily routine, work, service and health. Mercury in Virgo makes a challenging aspect to Uranus in Taurus in your eighth house of transformation. You may need to adjust the way you think or communicate with others to get the results you’re looking for. Mercury also makes a positive aspect to Chiron, which is currently in your seventh house of relationships, providing the chance for growth and understanding in relation to others.
Mars enters your 10th house of career on September 4, and this is go time for you, Libra. Mars brings energy, action, and assertiveness, and when it's in your 10th house of career, you can go full speed ahead after professional goals. You may be expecting a promotion, looking to change careers, or even wanting to have more interaction with someone in a leadership position. Whatever it is, you'll be supported during this time. However, try to avoid unnecessary conflict in your professional life. You don't want to burn bridges with the wrong person. Use Mars’ energy strategically to make professional progress.
Mercury joins the sun in your 12th house of endings on September 8, amplifying your need to really go deep within your subconscious and address some things that need to be released. Pay attention to your dreams around this time as they can be very insightful and can give you guidance towards what you should do in your waking life. Trust this gift of intuition.
The Pisces full moon lunar eclipse on September 17 kicks off an upcoming cycle for everyone that involves auditing each area of your life, and repairing the things that need work so that we can move towards our dreams, creativity, and an inner sense of peace and healing. This eclipse will put a spotlight on your health, your everyday work environment, your coworkers and how you're serving others.
Your ruling planet Venus moves out of your sign into your second house of income and finances on September 22, the same day that Libra season begins. This is so amazing for you, Libra. When your ruler Venus is in the second house, you can focus on what you value, make more money, and acquire things that you love, which music to your ear as a Venus ruled sign.
