Happy Birthday, sweet Libra! Take your time. For it is YOUR time. Only listen to the wisdom of your body now. So many chores and decisions scream to be done, but the answer is you don’t know, and you can’t know, until you have recovered your buried self and song.
If you must be with people – and, you’re Libra, so you can’t really avoid THAT – only be with people with whom you don’t have to pretend at all. No one you have to impress. No crazies. No debaters. Only safe, loving, grounded people.
And you don’t have to spend a lot of money! With feisty Mars in your second financial house until November 4, expenses will be higher than usual so you want to be extra careful. (You’ve been very worried.) Thank goodness, business seems to be better than it was before, and it continues to bring in more money. You’ve been in a bad way here, way too much debt, I’m sorry. But overall, the money gods are now looking down on you more favorably.
Your mother will also come up, most strongly, living or dead. This time will not come again with Jupiter for another 12 years.
With Jupiter in your tenth house of career, here is where the real bonanza lies until June 30, 2026. Lucky breaks and professional opportunities bound up aplenty for the next nine months — not to come round again until 2038. So, Libra, use it or lose it. Seize those lucky opportunities. Put yourself out there. There’s something very different about your looks – or your “look” – this October which I find very intriguing and I think you need to use for your advantage.
Life is all about timing. If you follow typical Libra procrastination and tell yourself, Oh, I can do this later…well, no you can’t. Use it or lose it. It’s only now.
For then, it is the beginning of October, and consciousness takes over again. And you go outside. And meet strangers!
October brings you center stage again and learning to accept a new kind of love from others. On new terms. And feeling great about it!
All the more power to you, to do what you want. With some new associations thrown in. And reconciling with some old associations.
In your first house of self and body, you have:
Awesome, life-giving Sun
Brilliant thought and word planet Mercury
Your ruler, lovey Venus, planet of beauty and love as of October 13
A new Libra Moon October 21
And your first house, traditionally ruled by bold, confident Aries, covers these areas of your life:
Your body
Your chi (your life force, the energy that flows through you and through everything. That which gives you life.)
How you look
Your persona
Your self-image
Your demeanor
Your personality
How the world perceives you
The impression you make on others at first meeting
Your ego
Moving forward
Out there in the public
You exit October ever so gracefully, feeling ten times more confident and remembering who you really are.
With such bounty, you can afford to be extra generous.
The only warning for you this month: to not get so involved with others’ journeys. Step back.
A full blood Harvest Moon occurs in your seventh relationship house October 6. This happens through an unexpected external event, and suddenly. Thus it seems you will by then be with others. The universe is bringing this to you. What can you do but offer thanks for this special kind of a birthday gift?
The fun part is feeling as if a forgotten part of you has agreed to come out into the world to play. Hallelujah, Libra! It’s been a long time, too long a time, that you have felt parts of yourself bottled up and stymied. This October you will re-connect with your special people and groups to which you once belonged. This venturing out takes courage and strength. Remember you have both.
And also remember that it is 2025 and you can do much of this in the privacy of your own home, or in any kind of private retreat, on and through your computer. Here is where Saturn continues to give its help and wisdom in your sixth house of the everyday and household.
While still under the protection of Jupiter in Cancer you are going to be doing a lot of reconciling with yourself, too. As October plays out, you feel more and more comfortable and you’re able to get more done. There have been lots of chores left unfinished, a long to-do list which you can finally get out of the way. Your mourning is now past. It sounds sad but it doesn’t have to be. This opens new doors and allows you to step through them. You will be liberated and empowered.
You are back in the saddle concerning your life and how you can make it yours.
Now, back to those screaming choices and myriad options. Give it until mid-October. Nothing will make much sense until then. For those tortured Librans who were trying to make a decision, all will then be splitlickety clear.
So sharply, in fact – the contrast so stark to what you were going through in September – that you may find yourself highly emotional. It will be like seeing your feelings reflected sharply in a mirror. This allows you not to be overwhelmed by them!
And finally, finally for those Librans who just do NOT want to be alone – even though I maintain you still need quality retreat time – this is for you.
The one whose feelings you could not be sure of – and this was torture to you – will now make them crystal clear.
It’s also moments like these that old lovers pop up, ex spouses, partners-from-the-past (both in love and money), unexpectedly and without fair warning. Well, I’M your fair warning, that’s what you pay me for, right? So, fasten your seat belt because all sorts of emotion rises when this happens.
There will be a significant move to “the next level” in your relationships that will take place on one of these days: Oct 15, Oct 16, Oct 17, Oct 18, Oct 19, or Oct 20.
Remember: When you come through for someone close to you, the rewards come back to you at least twofold.
For ALL Libras: As October ends you are also close to signing a contract that will change your life for the better. It brings much increased prosperity and security! After mid-October, wrap this up soon. Make sure, sweet Libra, you work on this contract with others and not go on your lonesome. In other words, get a second opinion on the contract. Have a lawyer or appropriate expert look it over.
And then get back to, as writer Alice Munro so beautifully put it, wooing your distant selves. You are coming back to yourself in a huge way. And honestly nothing ever feels so good as this. Brava, Libra. You have arrived.

O hushed October morning mild,
Begin the hours of this day slow.
Retard the sun with gentle mist;
Enchant the land with amethyst.
Slow, slow!
– October by Robert Frost
