Read your horoscope for Venus in Libra
Venus is coming home
Cue the rose petals. As Venus travels through Libra from August 29th to September 22nd, the planet of love, beauty, and pleasure revels in the creature comforts of its home sign. In Libra, Venus has extra oomph to turn up the charm in all our endeavors, from conjuring enchanting colorways to dancing between multiple flirty message chains to wooing strangers as an extreme sport.
Connection is a top priority for this placement, and Venus in Libra wants us to balance the scales in our interpersonal dynamics. Whether you decide to advocate for greater equity in a work environment or give your crush a proverbial TED Talk on your attachment style, dare to be assertive in all your life’s dressing room requests.
Venus in Libra also reminds us that creating harmony requires active effort. Sometimes we have to wield the sword of justice with conviction, even if it means disappointing someone. This could mean calling out a loved one who’s made an insensitive remark or asserting a boundary as an act of self-compassion. Though this placement may bring to mind scented stationery and elegant dinner parties, it can also recite the fine print of your local fair housing laws faster than you can say “Venus in domicile.”
This moment is an opportunity to tend to the commitments and agreements that hold our social fabric together. So phone the faraway friend you’ve lost touch with, rally your crew for a coquette-core photo shoot, or turn those parking lot weeds into your next avant-garde bouquet. Whatever you do, lead with honesty, and you’ll magnetize the beautiful experiences and auspicious alliances that are on tap in the coming weeks.
