The Sun will be in Libra from September 22nd to October 22nd
Libra season kicks off with a Mercury cazimi
The Sun moves into Libra on September 22nd, signaling the seasonal equinox — one of two days per year where the hours of night equal the hours of day. This moment, and Libra season in general, is all about balance. Anywhere your giving and receiving is out of alignment, you’re encouraged to come back to center. That could involve a number of practices, like accepting the compliments heading your way, turning work alerts off after 5 pm, or listening to your love’s favorite story (for the third time).
This Libra season is special because it begins with a Mercury cazimi at 11:50 pm PT on September 22nd: the one day during Mercury’s retrograde where the messenger is clear-headed and full of insight. If you have announcements to make, projects to launch, or conversations to start, the most optimal time will be between 12:00 pm PT on September 22nd and 11:30 am PT on September 23rd.
Finding balance between the New and Full Moons
On September 25th, the New Moon in Libra initiates fresh ways to balance the scales in your life. Whether that means advocating for equal pay at your job or finding the exact throw pillows to tie your living room together, this lunation plants seeds for the adjustments you’re ready to make. Those intentions will have an opportunity to transform into full-force manifestations during the Full Moon in Aries on October 9th. So prepare for your pitches, redecorating projects, and dates to ignite into action.
A core lesson of Libra is that true harmony and intimacy require a sense of independence. Without a strong connection to the compass of our inner desires, we can get trapped in draining relationships, so-so jobs, or drab decor. With an eye toward wholeness, Libra shows us how we can be deft champions for ourselves as well as for others. (All in cute shoes.)
