Libra Season 2024
Not every month is a heavy hitter, not every month is cake walk and this October is here to remind us that we can in fact have our cake while crying. I don’t mean that to scare you! I think cake and tears pair together perfectly in the way that Popcorn and Movies or Gilmore Girls and Coffee do. We’ve known for a while that the second half of 2024 was going to be sassy, a tad spicy if you will and while we’ve put September and the worst of it behind us, we do have to face down an eclipse, a supermoon and some looming Pluto energy.
Most of October is here to remind us that our own dreams are valuable and that life is far to short to put them on the back burner just simmering away and evaporating. There is no perfect time and with the Aries eclipse, you’re going to have to dare to put yourself out there. Sure trailblazing can be terrifying when you’re staring down a hillside that doesn’t even have a path. The ‘what ifs’ can creep in faster than a cold draft through an open window. This energy has far more to do with your own inner dialogue that’s holding you back. The second in a pair of Libra solar eclipses (sequel to Oct 14, 2023) the themes from last year will echo throughout October. Where are you starting to glow around the edges with excitement and passion? What internal areas need you to shine a light on them in order for you to find inner peace and harmony? This eclipse will mark an end and closure for past versions of you. You’ve done your homework. You’ve gone deep with your studies, learning and experiences. You’ve trained. You. Are. Ready!
Now with every exciting leap onto a future timeline, there must also be a bit of a reality check. Leave it to Libra and Scorpio to help keep you aware of everyone else’s feelings about your situation. Here’s the thing though. Are their opinions being forced on you, or are you just being an intuitive psychic and picking up emotional waves that aren’t really yours to deal with? This is going to be an emotionally charged month with Mercury in Scorpio because now our mindsets all get the superpower of intuition and skepticism. Old patterns come into play when we think someone is upset or laughing at our dreams and we find ways to sting and strike back sometimes without even being provoked.
For every harmonious angle we experience this month encouraging us to go with our dreams, there will be an opposite and combative angle right there to cause tension and drama. This is where we circle back to the cake and tears, popcorn and movies, Gilmore Girls and lattes. For every positive action, there must be an opposite reaction. It’s simply the law of the Universe, I’m sorry but science says so. We make cake to celebrate moments in our life that matter and sometimes the only person celebrating it is us. Instead of crying from loss of hope, cry while eating the cake you made to celebrate this new direction. Dreams are hard work and we are all tired, but dammit there’s cake! Not everyone is invited to your party and not everyone needs to know what you’re celebrating, but if you don’t hold a party for yourself and start lifting up your own accomplishments, you’ll be left holding someone else’s empty cake plate.
Until next month…
