LIBRA SEASON 2020 HOROSCOPES

Drink Droplet horoscopes will now publish horoscopes whenever the Sun enters a new sign and ushers us into a new solar astrological season! Libra Season begins!

The Sun enters the sign of its fall in Libra on the 22nd, ushering in the Fall Equinox and forming a beautiful mutual reception with Venus in Leo. Venus enters Virgo on Oct 2nd, also the sign of its fall. Planets in the sign of its fall often have to labour and put in more effort to act out its inherent nature. They are usually neglected, under-appreciated, and unrecognized. On the other hand, planets in mutual reception exchange their home signs and mitigate any challenges the Sun may experience. 

To finish off an intense, zesty, and hardy September, Mercury enters the brooding and profound sign of Scorpio on the 27th, then Saturn stations direct at 25˚ Capricorn on the 29th, and Mars Rx Aries immediately squares it. This will be the second time Mars squares Saturn and this configuration can point to power dynamics that cause frustrations. Read back to your September horoscopes for insights on how you may experience this personally.

There is a Full Moon in Aries on Oct 1st, indicating completion of whatever began in March 2020. The New Moon in Libra on Oct 16th will be within the orb of opposing Mars Rx and squaring Saturn and Pluto. New Moons always signify beginnings; however, this one may experience delays. 😅

The main event of Libra Season is the final Mercury Retrograde of 2020… yay. The planet of processing and articulating information, commerce, and transportations goes backward in Scorpio on Oct 13th. The first phase of this Mercury Rx opposes Uranus suggesting unexpected breakthroughs and shocking discoveries. Mercury retrogrades as a general and objective rule are useful for reviewing plans, wrapping up unfinished projects, double-checking things, and practicing mindfulness. Read your horoscopes for more insights.

It's highly recommended that you primarily read the horoscopes for your Rising sign. If you don't know your Rising Sign, then you can read for your Sun sign. To figure out these placements, enter your birth date, location and precise birth time into an astrology app like Time Nomad or online at astro.com.
