Full Moon Affirmation

My Sun Sign is Libra: What Does It Mean?
Your Sun sign is the sign most closely associated with your personality and life’s trajectory. It’s the sign you show to people and how most people recognize you. If your Sun is in Libra, this means that you’re a social being who thrives on building strong relationships with others. Your friends and romantic partners know they can count on you. You love to make others happy, even if this means letting them make the decisions or sacrificing your own happiness at times. Libra’s symbol is the Scales, the only inanimate symbol in the Zodiac. Libras are committed to justice and equilibrium – balance and harmony are key! For you, Libra, all decisions need to be made in full trust that you’ve examined every possible outcome and heard all sides of the story. You’re comfortable with grey areas and recognize that two things which may seem opposite can simultaneously be true. This makes you well-suited to mediation roles, whether it’s becoming a lawyer or helping two friends resolve an argument. Some may say you’re indecisive or a relativist, but really you just value the investigative process and refuse to jump to conclusions without knowing all the facts. Libra is ruled by the planet Venus, who governs love and beauty. Romance is extremely important to Libras, and finding the right partner matters to you. You want to build a life with someone who understands your commitment to harmony and justice. Your ruling planet, Venus, also gives you an eye for the beautiful. You love all things aesthetic and surround yourself with as much beauty as you can. You like to present a polished appearance and likely keep up with trends and fashions. Your eye for design makes you well-suited to artistic pursuits like interior design, event planning, or cosmetology. Libra is a cardinal air sign. Cardinal signs begin seasons: Libra season brings with it the start of autumn and coincides with the Equinox. Air signs tend to live inside their minds and may have trouble being grounded at times. Libra, as the cardinal air sign, is a visionary who is always coming up with new ideas. You have an active imagination which makes you a great asset to any team or friend group. With creative endeavors, collaboration with grounded, practical earth signs can help you follow through and execute your awesome ideas.What This Libra Season Will Bring:
Most of this year’s Libra season will see Mercury in retrograde, from September 27th to October 17th. While Merc Rx is no time to panic, this time may feel especially lonely. Libra is a social sign, whereas Merc Rx encourages us to go inward and reflect on our own lives. It’s important to stay connected to your circles: you may be engaging in personal reflection and inner work, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t grab brunch or go on an errand-date with friends! Libra’s New Moon falls on October 6th, the same day that Pluto finally goes direct after almost half the year in retrograde. Pluto often brings changes and shifts; coupled with the New Moon’s energy, this is a great time for starting new projects. The Full Moon in Aries falls on October 20th, as Libra season prepares to transition to Scorpio season. The energy is intense and passionate. You may find your romantic life heating up or melting down: either way, it’s powerful!Libra and the Justice Card
The Justice Card in the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot deck The Justice card in most Tarot decks features someone holding the Scales, Libra’s symbol. Like the Libra archetype, the Justice card represents balance, karma, and informed decision-making. In divination, pulling the Justice card can have a literal meaning – if you’re going through legal disputes this card may signal a favorable outcome (upright) or an unfavorable one (reversed). The meaning can also be more symbolic, though: this card brings consequences, whatever they are, good or bad. Meditating with this card or using it in ritual strengthens the power of balance and, well, justice. Whether you’re looking to bring stability back into your life or to send someone the karma they’ve earned, this card is a strong ally. Inviting this card into your rituals, meditations, or altar spaces during this season intensifies Libra’s justice-driven energy.Libra Season Activities:
