Libra Season 2024
Libra is a cardinal sign, representing initiative and leadership. Libra season guides the seasonal wheel to Autumn, a time when day equalizes with night, darkness and light are in balance. The Equinox brings us into Libra season, and Autumn in the northern hemisphere. In the element of air, the cardinal (initiatory) energy of Libra invokes and inspires the qualities of thoughtful, diplomatic, inclusive, and justice-oriented decisions and harmony seeking vibes. Because Libra is ruled by the planet Venus, and is a sign within the triplicity of air, there is an emphasis on beauty, style, and pleasures. There is also a collective instinct to experience wonder, gratitude and a body/mind/spirit reset.
The twelve zodiac signs are divided into two parts, the first six are more self-oriented and the latter six are oriented outward, representing connection with the greater world. Libra is the first of these more expansive and depth-oriented signs. Represented by an object, rather than a person or animal, the scales of Justice conceptualize moving beyond the instincts of the body and feelings into the realm of ideas and rational laws.
In Libra, the instinct is to bring our mental consciousness into the alignment of balance, into the beauty of reason and rationality, to equalize our beings and realign with nature. This focus on aesthetic pleasure and our planet’s harmony is evident all around us as the leaves and foliage richen in color, creating a visual orchestra of golds and reds. The ground becomes carpeted with glossy chestnuts, seeds and pods as nature lets go of her final gifts, the seeds of rebirth, before the hibernation and death of Winter.
Libra is the opposite sign of Aries as Autumn is opposite Spring. Within these oppositions we also have the polar energies of Venus and Mars. In the Spring, the fiery energy of Mars motivates the cardinal energy of Aries to push new growth and blossoms through the most naked of branches and icy frozen ground. It is the way of the warrior, the battle to be born again from the chill of winter death. To be born is one of the greatest physical struggles of one’s life, to come into the world is challenging and to grow while cultivating the necessary optimism and curiosity is an ongoing journey. We must bravely face whatever our life entails and keep going.
In Autumn, cooling Venus and the cardinal Libra energy bring balance to birth, the way of the warrior—with maturity, the way of partnership. Through life, we learn the way of Love, and the importance of diplomacy and balance. We instinctively learn to blend Venus with Mars so there is a harmony between innocence and maturity. This is the slow, beautiful, reflective aging process ultimately leading to decay. What would the miraculous battle of birth and the life unfolding from it be without a chance to deepen, in richness and color, to become gilded in the wisdom of your life, to find balance through experience and to finally rest, in the full beauty of Love.
One of my favorite connections of Libra goes beyond ancient civilizations and cultures and correlates to sacred geometry leading a path to the ultimate law of the universe, Love. This is reflected in the infinite cycles of Venus and the sun which reflect Golden ratio of phi (1.618). Phi is the mathematical principle that governs the shape of galaxies and spirals, and the structure of DNA and how plants grow. It is essentially the formula of divine order and beauty.
Principles of sacred geometry and cosmic harmony connect this Venus ruled season and the sign of Libra to intrinsic aesthetic wisdom and brilliance.
The Tarot Card associated with Libra is the Justice card. In tarot, the justice card symbolizes accountability, fairness, justice, and objectivity. It is related to the Taoist principle of karma.

Use the energy of the eclipse season to complete and let go of expectations and pace your important projects with help from your community. We are in eclipse season which is a time to release, observe and allow. Enjoy your abundance and share it!
Capricorn:
This is a complex time for you Capricorn. Pluto is making its final pass-through Capricorn, during eclipse season and you may be experiencing tension, motivation, frustration and inspiration as you meet face to face with what is ending in your life and your future. Accomplishments and other peak moments in the realm of career swirl around you. Maintain poise, a spirit of adventure and an empowered stance, consider the power of restraint and mystery as you navigate your public image and professional partnerships.
Aquarius:
Expansion, philosophy, joy. An opportunity to remember who you are while crafting new visions for your future and sharing your wisdom with the world. What do you want to give? Your values and communication have a great deal of power with Venus and Mercury forming a tense aspect to your sign. What will this creative tension generate, how will use the dynamism of conflict to create something lastingly meaningful and positive.
Pisces:
You will be behind the scenes working with the energy of Venus and Mercury in Scorpio and Mars in Cancer (water trine your sign) to make major money plans or moves, finalize legacy or family issues and communicate with partners about important financial plans. Recovering from the eclipse in your sign last month, we are still in eclipse season. Take care of your energy. Carefully read comb through all communication and embrace solitude and retreat, as you sort through and meditate on major changes taking place.
Aries:
Libra season is about relationships for you, Aries and this one is a time to examine your relationship with power as Pluto transits Capricorn for a final time forming a challenging and dynamic aspect to partnership for you. Mars, the planet of primal energy and drive is in Cancer, also forming a tense aspect to your sign. This is a time of release and creativity, a time of forgiveness and dialogue. Embrace the emotions that arise and try to navigate the tension by cultivating patience and enthusiasm for collaboration. Let others drive in the spirit of generosity. This could be a challenging month for you, but you have an opportunity to transcend through giving, empathizing, and asking for help, reaching new facets of selfhood in partnership.
Taurus:
This month pay attention to your daily routine, and your work health balance. Venus and mercury in your opposite sign of Scorpio challenge you to cultivate an inner dialogue around how your routine supports your values and helps you connect with the people in your day-to-day life. Devotion and satisfaction go hand in hand for you this month, so avoid and release ruts, while recentering and recommitting to the practices that quench your spirit. Watch how matters of the mind and heart are impacting you. Pay attention to your level of peace. Are you getting enough time for self-care? With Pluto in Capricorn and Mars in Cancer, this could be a powerful time for soul level healing for mind, body and spirit.
Gemini:
After the swirl of emotions and anxiety, empowerment and productivity that was Virgo season punctuated by an eclipse in Pisces, you still have chance to embrace change, focus on your creativity and fall in love with life through your innate gifts. Initiate a creative breakthrough through joy, but allow yourself to re-establish a sustainable pace, get enough rest, and watch for confusion as you embrace this opportunity to craft new narratives around pleasure, possibility, and performance.
Cancer:
This month is a perfect opportunity for you to explore your family systems. What from your past is supporting you and what is holding you back? Mars in Cancer might bring situations around home or family that require you to redefine or rework previous arrangements. You are supported by Mercury and Venus, trining your sign in Scorpio. Mind the eclipse energy, and move slowly, mindfully and with discretion as you plumb the depths of your familial systems, your tangled roots and the parts of you that need tending as you begin a phase of transformation and change which will unfold over the next year.
Leo:
Libra season stimulates your communication abilities and the square from Venus and mercury adds a spicey tension to all your creative works. You know it’s time to make a move, but you feel the energy of eclipse season and your instincts say proceed with caution. Follow your intuition. There is no need to stop moving towards your goals, dream, and rituals, but taking time will help the outcome be that much sweeter and more valuable. A relaxed vibe paired with action and innate and gently enthusiastic talent is dazzling. A light, confident and consistent touch is ideal this month.
Virgo:
Virgo season and the Pisces eclipse brought the slow unfolding of a new chapter. Transformation, leveling up and realizations are sinking in as you move through the first month in your personal new year, Virgo. You’re moving forward with purpose and clarity as you increase momentum after your season last month. Pay attention to your resources, financial and physical. The transits are challenging for many, but supportive and generative for you. Virgos are in a unique position this Libra season to make meaning and lay important foundations for future harvests.
