The Fall Equinox is here—and it’s bringing lots of action and change in your weekly horoscope for September 22 to 28, 2024. The sun enters Libra on September 22, ushering in a new season, and daylight officially begins to dwindle as the nights start to grow longer. When the sun travels through Libra, it always puts a spotlight on the most important connections in your life: who are you grateful for, and which relationships could use a little rebalancing?
On the same day, September 22, Venus in Libra slams into Pluto in Capricorn, stirring up power struggles and heated conflicts within your close ties. Feelings of jealousy, obsession, or a desire to control a situation may come up, and your fears and insecurities can take over, so pay attention to any unhealthy patterns or behaviors that may surface within you or others.
Venus, the planet of connection, enters Scorpio later on September 22, adding some intensity and depth to your relationships. Trust and intimacy are topics that will be points of connection or tension over the next few weeks—think: a soulmate type of love, or someone that could be your ride-or-die.
Interesting news also arrives on September 24, when Mercury in Virgo links up with Uranus in Taurus. This is a great day for problem solving, opening your mind to other possibilities, trying something new, and taking risks. On the same day, the last quarter moon in Cancer invites you to surrender and let go. You may even feel more tender as you realize who and what has run its course in your life. Just remember: feeling your feelings can help you heal and let go—even if it’s hard to believe in the moment.
On September 25, it’s (unfortunately) going to feel like Mercury is in retrograde when Mercury in Virgo stares down Neptune in Pisces. Don’t pressure yourself to make any important decisions on this day or to problem solve. Your mind may wander, it might be harder to focus, and the line between fact and fiction may feel a bit blurrier.
Fortunately, later in the day, Mercury in Virgo teams up with Pluto in Capricorn, leaving you feeling empowered. This can help you release limiting beliefs, accept change, and push past any fears of the unknown. Mercury enters Libra on September 26, and more of your mental energy can be focused on your close relationships. Someone important to you may seek more of your advice and support, or maybe you’ll be doing more client or collaborative work. The next few weeks are also perfect for finding more creative inspiration and communicating with tact.
