At 2:50 AM ET on September 23, 2023 the Sun Moved into the sign of Libra and we experienced the Autumn Equinox for 2023. That means that on this day we will experience equal hours of day and night and begin the progression towards shorter days and longer nights in the northern hemisphere.

When the Sun reaches 0° of a cardinal sign, it is a major event marked by the change of seasons. The equinox procession is also the cornerstone of western astrology!

The zodiac's cardinal signs are famed for their power to bring about change by commencing new cycles. The energy is potent and fertile; it is pregnant with possibility.

On September 29, is the Harvest Super Full Moon in Aries, highlighting themes of self vs. other, assertiveness vs. groupthink, and the age-old "ask permission or forgiveness?" dilemma. It is also our last lunation before Fall Eclipse Season begins.

On October 4, Mars in Libra will align with the (actual) south node, which may speed your karmic repayment schedule. Pluto's five-month retrograde concludes on October 10, just a cat's whisker before 28 degrees Capricorn. And, with Pluto (and Neptune) transits, minutes do matter...a lot!

On October 12, Mars sheds his confining Libran garb and storms into Scorpio, where he co-rules with Pluto and keeps court until November 24. Over the next six weeks, anywhere Scorpio falls in your natal chart is bound to see some passionate activity!

For the first time in over ten years, the eclipses changed in reverse from Taurus/Scorpio to Aries/Libra on April 20. That cycle began with a solar eclipse at 29 Aries 50. On October 14, there will be another solar eclipse at 21 Libra 08.

The Sun will be in this fair-minded, artistic air sign until October 23, focusing everyone's attention on balance, relationships, and beauty.

You've probably already felt the fall energies — a stirring for change and the preparation for nature's periodic symbolic and actual death as we approach the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere.

We'll be more desirous of social stimulation now that we've entered Libra Season, a mental air sign. And the rest of this blog will cover those influences and how to work with the energy for your highest good.

It is no wonder that the Zodiac sign of Libra the scales would take place on this day of balance. It is a reminder to us all that winter will soon be coming and to be measured as we reach our final harvest.
