As the Earth comes into balance with the fall equinox early this week, we also begin a new astrological season with Libra bringing that same balance to our inner world. Also, Mercury moves into Libra and brings harmony and peace to our minds and Venus enters Scorpio and furthers our ability to explore the depths of ourselves and our capacity for intimacy. It is a week that takes us from the earth sign of Virgo to the air element of Libra. With that, a new beginning sparks within our mind. Your weekly horoscope helps you integrate these awarenesses into your everyday life.

Sun Enters Libra
As the Earth shifts through the seasons in her dance with the Sun, we experience the fall equinox on September 22, 2024. A day of equal parts light and night, the autumnal equinox is the embodiment of balance. Hours afterward, the Sun enters Libra, beginning an astrological season that is, much like the equinox, about balance, equality, and harmony.
An air sign, Libra is the essence of adaptability, connection, and fairness. Throughout the coming weeks when it influences the Sun, rationality, communication, thought, and open-mindedness permeate the energy around and within us.
Ruled by Venus, Libra invites us to step back and observe the beauty within our lives, within others, and within the world around us. It’s when we observe through a lens that helps us bring greater balance to our lives. We do this through our perspectives, our inner worlds, our actions, days, and outer realities. We are connecting with others and allowing them to open our perspectives, too, helping us to broaden our mind and observe from another point of view.
If we have been too focused on the outer, we are invited to balance this with the inner. If we have been too focused on work, Libra invites rest and play. If we have been unable to see certain truths in our lives, Libra opens us to them, reminding us of the broader picture and that truth, reality, and life is often found within two, and often more, perspectives coming together. Your weekly horoscope below explains how.
Venus Enters Scorpio
On the same day as the fall equinox and onset of Libra season, Venus dances into a different sign. Shifting from Libra to Scorpio, the planet will transit through a water sign known for depth, transmutation, and mystery until October 7, 2024.
Venus is love, beauty, connection, self-worth, creativity, and receptivity. She exudes magnetism and self-worth and invites us to remember the true pleasure of being in this life. Scorpio delves into the unseen, the energetic, the subconscious, and the depths within our bodies. It is a determined, passionate, and intuitive sign that invites us to explore the unknown terrain within ourselves.
As Venus shifts into Scorpio, we are asked to strip back the layers that keep us from our truth and from intimacy with ourselves, with life, and with our chosen people or person. We are invited to be transformed by the love that sits within us and wants to be felt and expressed. And we are compelled to connect with ourselves, our life, and our chosen person or people in a way that cracks open our hearts and changes us in the process.
Mercury Enters Libra
Whereas Venus brings our hearts and bodies into depth and intimacy, Mercury joins the Sun in Libra on September 26, 2024, inviting our minds to experience that same balance and harmony.
Mercury is our planet of thought and communication. It governs learning, mental processing, organization, and listening. It is the domain of our minds and it shapes what we see, how we see it, and where our thoughts takes us throughout the creation or manifestation process.
As Mercury travels through Libra, it supports greater openness and flexibility in our minds. It opens us to perspectives and sides of the story we may have been previously overlooking. It brings beauty to our minds and helps us observe how we can find a state of balance and equilibrium even with all the moving pieces within and without. And it encourages greater rationality as Libra is less about emotion and more about fairness, objectivity, and considering all sides before making a decision.
This is also a beautiful few weeks for communication and connection with those around us. This sign is here to be opened by those around it, for it knows that life through one person’s experience is but a fraction of the story. It is through observing what can be seen only through another’s eyes that we are able to see more of the picture.
Weekly Horoscope
As the Earth comes to a moment of balance this week, we are invited to do the same. This day, and all of Libra season, reminds you of the beauty in opposites, paradox, and partnership. Nothing exists in isolation. Light requires dark, day cannot exist without night, and self cannot continue without the other. Your invitation is to experience the beauty within these opposing states of being. Your weekly horoscope helps you observe these oppositions that exist within you and understand how they support one another. Read for your rising sign.
