Libra
Libra (Ruling Planet: Venus; Element: Air) You, Libra, are the charming, tactful one. You have a magnetism about you. Socially, you are gifted. You can talk your way out of anything, and justice is a valued virtue to The Scales. But like most air signs, you can become detached and unreliable. You’re so indecisive sometimes that, more often than not, you bail completely, and you don’t do well with confrontation.
The planet that rules communication (Mercury) is in your sign, on October 7th, and this means a surge of ideas, opinions, attention, and opportunities for open communication. Harness this energy by putting yourself out there, either amongst your social group, or your community at large. Adventurous Sagittarius will fuel your mental fire when your ruling planet enters the sign on the 18th. Venus is also the planet of love, and when it’s in this sign, you’ll yearn for a mental connection with any potential partners. If you don’t get that, a full moon in Aries could sway you to walk away from a relationship altogether. Then, as Scorpio dominates the skies later in the month, your mental energy should decelerate, giving you time to think about your decisions and see them through to the end. Slowing down should bring you some stability, just don’t become too stuck in your ways.
Your Trax: Since you’ll be feeling so social toward the beginning of October, wanting long conversations and someone to have them with, music from Lucy Dacus should be low-key and long-winded enough to satisfy. An album like Dumb Luck by Dntel is more downtempo electro-pop but could have the same effect. Then the new moon toward the end of the month will bring in calmer vibes, so if you need something to match that, try something more acoustic and light like Boston’s own Paige Chaplin.
