Here’s What Libra Season Means for You, According to Your Zodiac Sign

Libra season has arrived, signaling a time of balance, harmony and relationships.

On Sept. 22, during the arrival of the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere — when there are equal amounts of light and dark — the sun will debut in Libra. As the sun enters this charming Air sign, cultivating a sense of equilibrium is encouraged in all areas of life.

Governed by coquettish Venus, the planet of love, beauty and diplomacy, this Cardinal season brings a gentle yet alluring breeze that invites us to create an environment that is just as harmonious as it is aesthetically pleasing.

Venus will slip into sultry Scorpio that same day, deepening the emotional intensity within our relationships. Venus in Scorpio evokes the desire to dive beneath the surface, bringing out themes of passion and transformation within our connections. This transit encourages depth, vulnerability and emotional connection, urging us to confront hidden feelings and desires.

On Sept. 26, Mercury will join the sun in Libra, encouraging empathy and compromise in our conversations. Relatable and diplomatic, this transit makes it easier to see both sides of a situation, which can lead to both parties meeting each other halfway. That said, it’s an excellent time to collaborate, negotiate and engage in meaningful dialogue.

Eclipse season isn’t over until it’s over: a solar eclipse in Libra on Oct. 2 serves as a powerful kickstart and new beginning, particularly in the realm of relationships, whether personally or professionally. This is the last eclipse of the year, so hang in there.

On Oct. 9, Jupiter will station retrograde in Gemini, shifting our focus inward when regarding communication, knowledge and spirituality. This retrograde period is equivalent to a reevaluation of what we’ve learned and how we’re applying that knowledge. 

Pluto will station direct in Capricorn shortly after, emphasizing themes of transformation, power and authority, followed by Mercury’s ingress into Scorpio on Oct. 13. This is important to consider as Pluto rules Scorpio, and Mercury’s journey through this Water sign adds a layer of depth and passion, which often results in a more investigative communication style.

Oct. 17 will be action-packed as Venus will debut in Sagittarius, injecting a sense of optimism and spontaneity into our relationships, followed by a full moon in Aries. The Fire element will be as prominent as ever, encouraging us to release fears and hesitations that could be holding us back from our highest good. It’s time to take action.
