Libra Season - A Quest for Balance and Equality
On September the 22nd the Sun moved into Libra and will stay there until the 22nd of October.
Libra is represented by the scales and it's a Yang, Cardinal, and Air sign.
In Evolutionary Astrology, the journey through the first half of the zodiac, from Aries to Virgo, represents a journey to discover who we are, offering us a definition and some clarity about ourselves. The second half, from Libra to Pisces, symbolises our journey out in the world and our relationship to other people, society, and life itself.
Therefore, Libra represents the middle point of these two chapters. Since it 's where the self meets the other, trying to find a balance and harmony between inward and outward. It's not a coincidence that Libra is the archetype of collaboration and partnership, where we come together with another to create something harmonious. Demonstrating that we can find balance and equality if we are willing to collaborate with one another.
Libra is also ruled by Venus, the Goddess of Love and Beauty. Thus, it is this season that we are invited to find beauty around us and add it whenever we can.
Libra is known to have a good eye for aesthetics ,understanding that a harmonious environment, whether through design, colour, furnishings, fashion, florals, art, or words, supports harmony from within. It calms the nervous system and invites us to soften and relax. Therefore, another way to embrace this season could be to connect and come to our bodies. Try to make space where you can just "be", for example laying down in a park on the grass watching the sky or lighting a candle at home, getting comfy and feeling what messages are brought from your emotions. This will help you to strengthen your connection with your body and intuition.
