Libra
SEP 23 - OCT 22
Imagining and Healing
Libra, the emphasis is on your spiritual sector and tying up loose ends as September gets underway. The sun in Virgo until September 22, along with Mercury retrograde, encourages you to let go of anything that no longer serves and find closure on issues that have been running in the background for too long. Also use this opportunity to recharge and reflect on what you want for your life over the weeks and months ahead.
Mercury is retrograde until the fifteenth, so you’ll find it easier to connect to feelings that you’ve struggled to put into words. It will be easier to hold healing conversations too.
Lovely Venus, your guide planet, turns direct in your social sector on September 3, so if there have been issues with friends or a romance that has stalled, you’ll soon know what to do. You’ll feel much better after making some key decisions.
The new moon in Virgo on the fourteenth aligns with eccentric Uranus, which can bring helpful insights and intuitive nudges your way. You might understand in a flash why a problem has bothered you so much and what you can do about it. If you feel like starting a spiritual practice, now is the time.
The sun’s move into your sign on September 22 means you’ll be in your element over the coming four weeks. This is your chance to showcase your talents and focus on projects that resonate with you at a deep level. It’s also okay be selfish, because it really is all about you for the coming month. Make the most of it and enjoy it!
Finally, the full moon in Aries and your sector of relating on the twenty-ninth can heighten feelings in a key relationship. If you have something to share, it could all come out in a rush at this time. A pause for thought can help you avoid saying anything that might be a cause for regret later.
