This Libra season is the perfect time to reevaluate your relationships — to others and yourself. Find out what more this month has in store.
Just like that, another astrological season is upon us!
To celebrate, we're introducing Libra Lovin' — a collection of 5 limited-edition designs created by Brooklyn-based tattoo artist @girlknewyork.

On September 22, the Sun enters Libra — the sign of justice and relationships. Libra helps us reconcile conflicting desires, teaches us how to compromise with ourselves and others, and reminds us of the power of collaboration and sharing.
This season isn't all sunshine and rainbows, though. Mercury goes Retrograde for the third and (thankfully!) final time of the year on September 27. I know we all resent these retrogrades, but think of this one as an opportunity. Use the time to reflect on — and adjust — how you communicate with and approach others. Could you be a better listener? Do you default to making assumptions about people?
Then there's October, which brings a significant energy shift as Pluto, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mercury each end their current retrograde cycles. When all four planets go direct, you'll feel motivated to move forward with any life changes — big or small — you've been envisioning over the past few months.
On October 6, Pluto's retrograde ends just a few hours after we experience a New Moon cycle in Libra, bringing the Sun and Moon together. The converging celestial bodies will invite us to better balance our public lives and our inner selves.
Pluto beckons us to explore the motivations behind our decisions. Meanwhile, Saturn — which goes direct in its home sign of Aquarius on October 10 — inspires us to actively pursue our dreams. The planet will reward us for our efforts, but only if we buckle down and do the hard work first (no matter how tedious it may be). Then, Jupiter and Mercury station direct on October 18, inviting us to embrace both our intuition and logic.
We close the season with a Full Moon in Aries on October 20. But with the Sun, Moon, and Mars all squaring Pluto in Capricorn, you might end the month feeling some internal tension. Don't worry, though. The Full Moon will also help to resolve it by reminding us of the importance of honoring our individual needs. Only then can we fully show up for others.

Libra (Sept 23 - Oct 22)
Happy birthday season! You're living your best life this month, Libra. Buy whatever you want! Experience all the things that make you feel beautiful! Envision everything you want out of life and go get them. Just watch out for any miscommunication during the retrograde period.
Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21)
Your 12th house (which rules isolation) is lighting up bright this season, Scorpio. What does that mean? You'll likely be more introverted than usual over the next few weeks. But think of it as a good thing! This is a chance to reflect on the last year of your life. Identify the things that are no longer serving you and let them go. Then you'll be able to enter your birthday season ready to start the next chapter.
Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 21)
Your social butterfly is on one this season, Sag. Your house of community is activated, and that — combined with Libra's talkative nature being in the air — means lots of mingling with friends, old and new. Use your charisma to your advantage. Give your social life a glow-up!
Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 19)
Career is top of mind for you this season, Capricorn. But that should come as no surprise since we know there's nothing you love more than being industrious. With your 10th house of professional life activated, you'll be finding your groove at work. Do your best, and your colleagues will take notice.
Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 18)
You're in your element this season, Aquarius. With Libra bringing back the Air sign energy, you're going to feel revived over the next few weeks. You may even be motivated to see or learn something new. Embrace that adventurous spirit and go explore.
Pisces (Feb 19 - Mar 20)
How happy are you with your life, Pisces? That's a question you'll be asking yourself a lot during Libra season (you can thank the retrograde for that). Your 8th house of death and transformation urges you to ponder several other of life's biggest questions, too. Who are you? Who do you want to be? What needs to end for you to be able to start again?
Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 19)
Oh, Aries. You're feeling the feels this season. Libra is your opposite sign, and it's lighting up your house of committed partnerships. If you have a boo, you're going to be tempted to shower them with never ending beauty and affection over the next few weeks. If you have a potential partner, you may want to take the next step in your relationship. And if you're single, then light up like the fire sign you are and get your flirt on — you never know who you could meet.
Taurus (Apr 20 - May 20)
This is the perfect opportunity to bring balance back to your life, Taurus. You may feel like your routine is out of whack or that you're struggling to juggle work and personal time (which is particularly hard when you work from home). Use this month — especially the time in retrograde — to reflect on what you're lacking in your daily life. Then find ways to fix it!
Gemini (May 21 - Jun 20)
The return of an air sign is really lighting up your 5th house, Gemini. That means you're going to be super creative and sensual this season. You're already a masterful conversationalist, but you'll be even more social than usual. Don't be afraid to charm your way into getting what you want over the next few weeks.
Cancer (Jun 21 - Jul 22)
Home is top of mind for you, Cancer. Perhaps you're being called to reconnect with family. Or maybe your space isn't feeling like an authentic reflection of yourself. Either way, use this month as an excuse to spend time with the people who feel like home to you (or redecorate your space to give you that feeling too).
Leo (Jul 23 - Aug 22)
Communication is key this season, Leo. Your phone will be going off nonstop, whether you like it or not (but let's be honest — we know you love it). With the Mercury retrograde at play, you might end up tongue-tied. Combat it by double-checking your messages to ensure they're as clear as can be.
Virgo (Aug 23 - Sept 22)
Exercise extra caution this month — especially when it comes to your finances. Consider taking some time to evaluate your spending habits and find new ways to maximize your savings. And hold off on any significant monetary investments until after the retrograde, Virgo. Deals might not be as good as they seem.
That's it for our astrological insights this month. If you want to rock one of our new Libra-inspired designs, hurry! Because once this zodiac season is over, you won't be able to purchase these pieces again.
