Here we are on the other side of a powerful eclipse season. It’s as if we’ve been through a world-changing earthquake, the ground has finally stopped shaking and now we are left to pick through the rubble and rebuild. We can choose to approach this project with debilitating despair or with a creative spirit. We probably all are experiencing a mix of both. In other astrological news, the sun officially moved into the sign of Libra during the Sept. 22 equinox. We have moved into the dark half of the year. Libra encourages us to bring our attention to the collective. How do you know yourself to be a part of a whole? How do you contribute to One Human Family? What do balance and compromise look like to ensure the community is healthy? All of these questions are posed by Libra season. As we enter the season, a confrontation is taking place between Mars in Scorpio and Pluto in Aquarius. Mars is the planet of aggression, courage and drive while Pluto is the planet of intensity, permanent change and death and rebirth. When they square off, we experience power struggles, bull-headed action and a need to just put one’s head down and get a lot of work done. When we choose the right course of action, this transit can be incredibly productive, but if we choose the wrong fights, it can be incredibly destructive. You have agency here.
Here are your horoscopes for the Sun entering Libra and the Mars-Pluto square. Read for your rising and sun signs.
Libra
Sept. 23 – Oct. 23
Happy birthday season to all of our beautiful and sensitive Libras. The sun is shining on you right now, and you are ready to bloom for the rest of us to gaze upon. You are ready to get to work making money, honey. You may feel a struggle between economics and creativity. Do you bust out the small things for quick coin or do you follow your creative spirit? Your creative project has great longevity, so it’s OK to make a quick buck now.
Scorpio
Oct. 23 – Nov. 21
Take your retreat, Scorpio. Better yet, figure out what retreat actually means for you. How do you use solitude and reflection? Do you find it uncomfortable or growth-oriented? You are probably finding some conflict between yourself and your home. You are ready to work on yourself and get things done, and your home and family may be challenging that. Take some time for yourself now.
Sagittarius
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
The sun shines on your hopes and dreams right now. You can clearly see what you want, and you can find the people who want to help you achieve them. Stay in this light. You have the opportunity to do some serious inner work over the coming weeks. This work is karmic, so go ahead and break a sweat. You may struggle communicating your process to yourself and others, but don’t worry about that right now.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
Well, Cap, the light is finally shining on you at work and in public. You should be receiving some deserved recognition in the coming month, or you can clearly see where to go to be appreciated for your work. You may discover that some friends have been doing a lot of work to support you, and this might actually conflict with your own financial goals. See what your friends have to offer.
Aquarius
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
The path to new worlds is lit for you, Aquarius. Will you travel or start to learn a new thing? You will probably feel the impulse to put your head down and dig into your work life. Go for it. Just don’t use work to avoid addressing the deep, personal transformation you are processing. If you experience power struggles at work, get strategic about what is actually best for you.
Pisces
Feb. 19 – March 20
You are probably feeling a strong impulse to get outta Dodge, but you might also feel compelled to just hide away. I recommend taking a strategic trip that will fulfill your desire, while really diving into how you take time for yourself in the long term. In Libra season, get really clear on how you work with shared resources. Do you volunteer? Invest? Who else shares your mission?
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Who do you consider partners in your life? Now is a good time to get really clear about who you trust and who you can be vulnerable with. You might be feeling as if you’re not sure who you are right now, so trust your life partners to hold you together. As you put your energy into a collective project or shared investment, you may find that your support network is changing.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
As the sun enters Libra, you have the opportunity to analyze whether or not your daily habits and routines are serving you. Are there some changes you can make? Even small shifts make big differences. There is probably a conflict happening with an important partner and your career. Give your energy to your person for now. Your work life will still be there after addressing their needs.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
You are being blessed with the capacity to really use your elbow grease, efficiently use your energy and clear out some barriers in your life. While some travel might throw a wrench in your personal work, you can still work on your daily habits in different environments. Your creative expression is important. You can clearly see what your creative outlet is right now.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Home is different for everyone, and sometimes the feeling of home changes over the course of a day. During Libra season, you can clearly see what is and is not home for you. Trust what you see. However you express yourself creatively, put as much energy as you can into that project right now. You have support from the cosmos to buckle down.
Leo
July 23 – Aug. 22
Allow yourself to live in your own Mayberry for a little while. Acknowledge your neighbors, appreciate your local locales and find gratitude in simple small talk in your town. If you experience some conflict between your home or family and an important partner, focus on your home life first. You have the opportunity to efficiently get your home in order.
Virgo
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
Time to focus on how you make and spend money, Virgo. The first place to start is to get really clear on your value system, then let your income source and spending habits follow. You have an opportunity to get really active and efficient in how you communicate some important messages. Keep your focus local, and you will have a great impact.
