In true Libra fashion, we can expect this upcoming season to be filled with three c’s confidence, care and commitments. We’ll be out and about a lot more than usual from the influence of this social sign and we’ll love every minute of it. From distanced chats with strangers on the street to throwing a soiree with your besties, this next month is going to be filled with plans. On September 22nd we started the season for the socials and it lasts until October 22nd. This season also starts the first day of fall and we all know what that means…sugar, spice and everything nice.

Big Hearts, Bigger Plans 

This air sign is very much a go-with-the-flow type of person, which is what creates their chill aura. They’re super kind, caring creative and you can count on them to do the right thing. Being super social people that can hold a conversation no matter who they’re talking to, and their lively and kind personalities make them loved by everyone. Their need to be social can sometimes get them into a jam since they’re constantly saying yes when maybe they should be saying no. Not to mention, loyal and are a really good partner, friend, sibling, co-worker, you name it. Which also makes them super empathetic and can get their mind in a whirl when they’re taking on the problems of those around them. The sign of balance makes them an optimal candidate to give a non-biased opinion. They serve for justice and will do anything to take down the bad guy, being an awesome sidekick to have. They can come off a bit self-centered but it’s only because they’re trying to figure out how to make the best possible plan out of the situation. This can also cause them some stress because they’re always trying to do the right thing. Ruled by Venus, this beauty-driven sign is one to watch and keep close. 

Social Butterflies

Your social life to soar this upcoming month. Libra energy is going to bring out our party animals and bring out the joy in plans rather than the potential stresses. We’ll be looking forward to making plans and we’re ready to step out of our comfort zones after being in our own surroundings for so long. Break out of our cocoons before we tell ourselves to snuggle back in them when winter comes. With mandatory vaccination passports set in place in Canada for going out most places as of September 22nd, in line with Libra aka social season. We’ve spent Virgo season hustling and being analytical so now it’s time to reward ourselves. Allow yourself to enjoy all of the activities and take in all of the love that you’re going to be given. Use that Venus energy to dress in an outfit you’ve been thinking of wearing but haven’t been feeling bold enough to. It’s important that we stay confident and optimistic like a true Libra with Mercury in Retrograde joining us. 

Keeping Our Cool

There’s strong energy this upcoming season. Libra’s full moon lands on October 20th and goes by Hunter’s Moon as which was used as a symbolism for a time to start collecting for winter. The full moon is in Aries, which acts as an action plan and gives us the determination it takes to get the work done. This is a time to take a look at exactly what you want and figure how to make it a reality. Mercury Retrograde is from September 27th to October 18th and is the third of 2021. If you’re experiencing tech delays, extra traffic, conversations that don’t lead anywhere and canceled plans, the retrograde is responsible for that. It’s an interesting time for the Mercury Retrograde with Libra’s being social butterflies, but it’s good because they keep an open mind. That’ll give us the strength to not lose our cool if things don’t go as planned but take it as an opportunity to create another adventure. The start of Libra season also marks the autumn equinox, so things are going to get cozy. Enjoy all the pumpkin, cinnamon goodness that comes with this time (if you can consume them) and watch the leaves turn for some much-needed R&R.

Full Moon: October 13-16

Keywords: release, new beginnings, leadership, progress, improvement, positivity, enjoyment

It is not surprising that this particular Full Moon falls over the Thanksgiving weekend, a time when we are called to express gratitude for our blessings. The astro-energy of October has been tense and rigid. You may have felt on edge, irritable, cautious and quick to anger and judgement. Various planetary alignments occurring since the beginning of the month and early this year have worked alongside transformational shifts both in our personal lives and on a global scale. We can observe this as we head into election time here in Canada and as conversations and international news start to become ever more intense. In short, we can expect 2020 to be a life-transforming year, one that we can start to create for ourselves more consciously in the final months of 2019.

Where Were You In April?

Taking a step back and reviewing where you were in April 2019 against where you are in this present moment is an excellent way to view your process and personal transformation. Were you challenged in some intense way? Where you asked to make big changes or step into new roles, personally and/or professionally?  Chances are your mindset and life position was different than it is currently. The last five-six months may have thrown challenges and obstacles our way, indeed. How did we overcome these challenges? Did we recover with grace? Or did we fall and collapse? Whatever the answer, this full moon will bring us into a spotlight, inviting us to release past ideas and habits, relationships and situations so that we can head into the new year with arms open for new and wonderful things to come. Let go of what was holding you back.

Release, Release, Release

If you have one mantra for this full moon, let it be “I release”. Release past expectations of who you thought you were meant to be. Release the tension and edgy irritability or need to control situations. Holding onto these things will simply work to hold you down. This full moon, we are finally granted permission to release the past and accept a free flowing sense of better energy and better circumstances. You deserve what you want, and only by releasing past expectations or belief patterns that do not serve will you get it.

Become a Leader in your Life

As Aries is the first sign in the zodiac, we are encouraged to leverage this leadership energy and step into our personal power for the new year that is speeding our way. Now is the time to put down your intentions and determine how you want 2020 to look for you. Embrace leadership, embrace the opportunity to step into the spotlight of your own life and start managing its direction. Refuse to take the back seat. Ask for exactly what you want and breathe freely into the new spaces you will start to manifest for yourself.

There’s something about fall, isn’t there? This summer had us spinning every which way under an intense heat that invited us to turn inwards and figure out what we are really all about. The work we’ve been putting in, consciously or not, will have ample opportunity to demonstrate its fruits during this beautiful season of harvest and gratitude. As we’re coming off of a restorative and reflective Gibbous moon and Autumn Equinox, we are likely feeling ready to leap into the next phase of our journey with a giant push, driven by our intuition and our passion.

Ignite the Fire of Aries 

What better way to step into this next phase than leveraging the powerful and fiery energy of Aries? The new moon in Virgo helped us clear our closets to make room for what we really want. With a clear mind, our intentions were made apparent to the universe, even if they may still feel a little unclear to us. With the Full Moon in Aries, we are invited to leverage the traits of this fire sign to our benefit and manifest what our hearts desire for 2019.

Follow. Your. Intuition.

An Aries is highly intuitive. While our inner being is always our guiding system, it will be even more accessible to us over the next few days. However, an Aries can also be highly impulsive. So we must take care not to confuse or combine our intuition with impulsivity. There is a difference between acting on our intuition and throwing caution to the wind, due to impatience and impulse. Ensure that you listen carefully to what your intuition reveals to you during this full moon and act accordingly for best results.

While a full moon in Aries can highlight our passions and bring a lively energy to ourselves and our projects, make sure that everything you start with this energy is completed, as Aries’ can tend to leave things mid-way. Don’t let your inner fire sputter and fade, drifting your attention to something else that may not be a good use of your time. It is also important that we tame our fire and passion, channelling it into a creative force of positive good, rather than letting it lead us astray. The fire and passion of a Full moon in Aries is a powerful force, but if it is not channelled appropriately for our benefit, then we risk confrontations that will be emotionally draining or just a plain waste of valuable energy.

With the Full moon in Aries, we are invited to act on the fires within us and make what we want come to life. Listen to your heart, connect with likeminded people, give in to supportive situations that really speak to your inner being. Leverage the passion of this fire sign to call in the goods and get what you want for the new year. Light your torch and let your intuition take lead. Now is the time to get excited!
