Monday, the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra all day. It will journey there until early Wednesday morning (Sept. 24th).
The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time, as we seek the approval of others.
We very much want to maintain equal, fair relationships at this time and are therefore open to making compromises and negotiating.
Monday at 3:54am EDT, Mars leaves harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra and enters passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio, where it will journey until November 4th.
The last time we experienced this transit was Oct. 12th until Nov. 24th, 2023.
Think back to that time and ask yourself: What projects were underway? What got initiated? What actions did I take? How can I take things to the next level?
Mars in Libra is constantly striving to bring fairness to the world; Mars in Scorpio knows that life simply isn’t fair. Mars in Libra seeks the middle ground; Mars in Scorpio says, “It’s black or white: Pick one!”
Mars in Scorpio is all about accepting challenges and making changes with concentrated energy and willpower.
For the next 6 weeks, we rely heavily on our gut feelings. We can see through others and could potentially exploit or quietly but formidably oppose them.
We project cool equilibrium — but below the surface may lie another story — in general, we don’t want to show our hand…
We may be attracted to sexual taboos or fantasies in which the “other” surrenders their “body and will” completely — and our sex appeal could perhaps be strong enough to bring that about.
Mars in Scorpio also has a provocative quality to it: We might test ourselves and others. We make all kinds of rules and goals just for the personal satisfaction that comes from achieving or mastering them.
Our survival instincts are stronger; we more easily embrace our own animal nature without guilt.
All this is especially true if you have an Aries or Scorpio Sun- or Rising-sign. Scorpios will feel unusually energized, passionate, and direct — and physically stronger. Aries will feel more intensely connected to others (and to life) over the next 6 weeks …
Monday at 2:19pm EDT, the Sun changes signs from practical Virgo to harmony-seeking Libra, where it will journey until Oct. 22nd. This signifies the beginning of Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere of this planet.
The Fall or Autumn Equinox is an energetic turning point from one season to the next. Equinoxes are super potent times for setting intentions. They are energetic gateways that open us to the inter-relationship between light and dark, inner and outer, spirit and matter.
With the Sun entering Libra, we are being called to pay attention to our relationships. Bringing equality, cooperation, and balance to our dealings with the world is recommended during this time. We have a keen awareness of issues concerning justice, and we are more likely to take a stand against injustice, especially when it’s directed against others.
However, we also want to keep the peace, so we may use language and our intellect to address such issues diplomatically. We can see all sides of a situation — and therefore, it’s not always easy to make the “right” choices.
Our desire for harmony is great; more often than not — consciously or unconsciously — we may find ourselves seeking the approval of others.
All this is especially true if you are a Leo or Libra Sun-sign or Rising sign. As a Libra, you will feel a good dose of confidence and playfulness in the next four weeks; as a Leo, you are more aware of the delicate balance that is required internally and externally in your life.
