Libra Season is Here to Shine a Light on Relationships

10.11.2023 — Brittany Beringer

After a few months of planning, structuring, and focusing on our personal wellness, Libra season 2023 arrives with a new social approach to our lifestyles. The diplomatic air sign is all about relationships and finding balance in all areas of life — something we’ll all need help with during this bubbly new era. Plus, Virgo’s go-getter energy carries on into Libra season, helping us put everything we’ve planned up our sleeves into action.

Welcome to Libra Season!

Libra season falls between September 23 and October 22. Libra, per astrology, is a sign of balance, fairness, and partnership. The relationship-oriented air sign is known for its social status, so we often shift focus on our connections during Libra season. But it’s not just party invites that you’ll find right now — but your intimate relationships, too. This is a time to review the role these connections play in your life and understand how to be a better partner and supporter. 

Libras are symbolized by the scales of justice, which is why they tend to take on the mediator role — sometimes it’s even seen as playing for both sides. But ultimately, Libras desire balance and harmony, so they’ll stick their neck out in order to make everyone around them at peace. As a cardinal sign, Libras are extremely driven and chase after what they want. For that, Libra season is a great time for action. As a Venus-ruled sign, Libra also influences our artistic side. That said, take the plunge on your creative desires and revel in your inner art critic right now.

Seasonal Forecast

From Instagram dumps to spur-of-the-moment adventures with your besties, we’re entering a super-friendly (and creative) era right now. As we prioritize our social lives, it’s important to keep our focus steady on our goals, too. The full moon in gutsy Aries gives us an extra push to take a few risks as we go after what we want. Lean into your ability to be a team player when Mercury enters Libra on Oct. 4.

Venus enters Virgo on Oct. 8, giving us a more practical lens when it comes to our money, creative projects, and our relationships. This is a good time to simplify your life by decluttering all the things that hold your vision back. Extra support arrives on Oct. 10 when Pluto goes direct in Capricorn. This is a powerful moment to transform your career and fine-tune your professional goals. If you’re running low on motivation, Mars enters Scorpio on Oct. 11, which helps us stay passionate and determined to satisfy our deep desires.  

We might be out of the retrograde woods, but the new moon solar eclipse in balance-seeking Libra on Oct. 14 is here to shake things up in our extremely vulnerable relationships. Watch out for gossip and unexpected revelations within your friendships. Fully expect true colors to show.
