WHETHER YOU ARE a Celestial Libra by birth, have your Moon, Ascendant or ruling planet in this sign or have a ‘loaded’ seventh house in your chart, Libra is the sign associated with the cooler Climes of Autumn in the northern hemisphere while appreciating Spring’s fresh approach in the southern hemisphere. For all of us, there is a palpable shift in the air. From September 22/23 until October 22/23, we all get a chance to experience the Libran force as it brings balance and a magnanimous spirit of cooperation. Somewhere in your daily life you will feel this force because everybody has “Libra” somewhere in their astrological chart. When the Sun – our solar star, lights up this sector – you too light up and can partake in the heavenly dance of love’s renewal. Even if you are not a Libran by birth date, take a test drive on some of the qualities and suggestions below if you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to be a Cosmic Libran.

22 September
The challenge this year is to put your lovely sensibilities to work to bring into balance conflicting needs between your home environment and the environment you create within your primary relationship. The focus is on your net worth, financial vitality and income streams. The key for the entire year ahead is in how well you take on management of those assets.
*
23 September
Get used to the word transformation because that is what the entire year ahead is all about. In every sense of the word you are now in a position to remake yourself from the inside out or vice-versa. It matters not in which order you do it but that you do it. Shift your focus inward and prepare to meet your deep self.
*
24 September
A year ahead of shifting sands, international travel and/or going back to finish off a graduate program or get a degree. The thread connecting all the zones of power in your astrology is to build up your knowledge base and see the world the way you want it to be. Use your luscious and deep creative power to pull to you the circumstances that fit your life plan.
*
25 September
You must embrace the concept of deep transformation or the changes that are coming, especially in November and December, could throw you off your path for decades. Seriously, let what needs to fall away fall away and you’ll be in great shape come the new year to start rebuilding your life from a place of passion and a profound connection to the world.
*
26 September
No matter what has happened, you will love again. The power to heal and begin anew flows through every cell of your being. The rebirth comes from spending time with yourself this year and laying down a new foundation where you can physically find comfort, support and succour from your immediate surroundings and family. One or both parents are key.
*
27 September
The year ahead looks good, especially if you’ve learned how to negotiate those speed bumps on the relationship side of the road. If you have then be prepared for love’s flash of soulful recognition to strike. If it does the bond will develop fast and will have a better than average chance to quickly coalesce into something more permanent. Ambition is evident.
*
28 September
Your artistic vision of the way your life purpose fits into being of service to the greater good has never been more available for self-expression. Forge ahead in the final months of 2009 because by spring of 2010 your foundation will be laid strong and sure. There’s a big question you need to have answered in the coming months and it’s all about a fresh start.
*
29 September
The coming year holds the key for seeing the grand plan of your life in a way that can only be described as profoundly spiritual. It will be as if a brilliant light refuses to turn off. You may actually find this irritating unless you pay attention to the central message of this illumination, which is to develop the more hidden and metaphysical sides of your nature.
*
30 September
There is a touch of the nihilist about you all year, which could be extremely meaningful or tragic depending on how you decide to rearrange things. Don’t let your desire for change overrule your good judgment. When in doubt, do nothing. Much that is shifting in your life is hidden or beyond your control. A growing concern for work ethics will have tremendous impact.
*
1 October
Ground yourself in your work til year’s end because all of 2010 is about incorporating fresh new perspectives into your emotional life. The lovely composure you cherish will have to wait for at least another year. Meanwhile, if you have mother issues or unresolved conflict with the females in your family or circle of friends, I suggest you start there. Let yourself unravel.
*
2 October
Don’t let any more time slip away pretending you’re part of the pack. You’re nothing like the crowd you hang with no matter how much you want to get along with the gang. Strike out for unchartered waters and those who dig your style will lovingly follow you to the ends of the earth. A happy combination of tradition and originality colour your world in the months ahead.
*
3 October
The entire year ahead is all about making your dreams come true which means harnessing the bigness of you and projecting that sense of largesse out into the world through visioning what it is that you’re after. Don’t let the nitty gritty grind wear you down. You must rise above the “what ifs” and settle for nothing less than the “what might bes.
*
4 October
How do I love me – let me count the ways. Shakespeare would take umbrage at this but you mustn’t. How can you be good for anyone else if you’re not taking care of YOU! Vow to shape up in this department and things will be getting even better than they already are. The cosmos wants to gift you with a relationship this year that will open you up to you.
*
5 October
Go outside and check today’s weather. There are messages in the clouds and the wind has a tune meant only for your ears. The next 365 days are seeded in the songs of silence within and the breezes that touch your skin. The sensual wants to dance with the deepest places of your soul. The cosmic weather pattern signals a great depth of inner character is emerging.
*
6 October
As you wind your way down to year’s end, your emotional baggage is dropping by the day, which should be cause for good cheer. Expect to lose what no longer holds value and let the chips fall where they may. No regrets. The new seasons ahead in 2010 will give you a fresh start in matters of personal self-worth, spiritual connection and reclaimed identity.
*
7 October
Push yourself out into the world because it’s time to give birth to a new you – one who is courageous and capable. Your mind loves detail and minutiae while anything connected to study, research, foreign or extended travel will attract you in the months ahead. It’s time to write your family story as a marked interest in your personal genealogy begins.
*
8 October
A lot of good fortune will come quickly and seemingly effortlessly if you allow your intellect full expression. The year ahead is intellectual in scope but a bit dry in texture. What will really help balance out your temperament will be strategically placed icons and sources of the element of fire. Be sure you surround yourself with whatever calls to mind this element.
*
9 October
Your process of individuation is moving forward steadily, powered by an acceptance of your special and unique gifts and how they don’t necessarily fit with those of your family of origin. Take comfort from these words and know that you are going to find those nooks and crannies of your psyche absolutely fascinating in the months and decades ahead.
*
10 October
There is a power emerging in your identity that is going to be hard to not notice. So many aspects of your self-concept are coming together to push you forward into being the new person that you’re supposed to be. Out of deep transformation is being born a gustier, more impacting emotional presence and that’s going to take you places.
*
11 October
Your inner warrior is ready to speak volumes if you will but listen. Draw on the finest command of your language and say nothing. Attend to the creative process within and meet your muse with open arms, soft eyes and a dulcet tone of appreciation for what is going to flow your way and flow fast it will. Trust the process. This is a year for brilliant integration.
*
12 October
The lessons of love may seem hard on you in the coming months but it takes what it takes to get the message home. You’re at the end of the line and need to evaluate what and why you’re settling for less than you want. It’s about compromising and only you know how much you’ve lost and how much you’ve gained by surrendering your will. It’s time to renegotiate.
*
13 October
There is a nobleness about you all year manifesting through magnificent visions of what and how you see the world. Believe it and you will see it. Seeing is not believing. This is the year to dive into the depths of the great mystery that is your life and rise to the surface with a more joyful and playful you. Friends are pivotal so rally them to your cause.
*
14 October
The way you identify sources of nurturance is about to turn your life around. You’re at the end of a process which took you through a more clinical approach and now you’re moving into levels of intensity and emotional bonding totally unfamiliar to you. You are going to see how your emotional self-control will be an agent for transformation and healing for others.
*
15 October
If you feel like you’ve come to the end of the line with your career path or position in life, don’t despair. It’s time to reinvent yourself. That old saying about a door closing and a window opening was made for you. In the coming 4 seasons you’ll find yourself refreshed, inspired and ready to come out charging as you delve into the nuts and bolts of just what a character you are.
*
16 October
Talk about a new image. Anything that gives you a leg up is worth an investment whether you’re thinking cosmetic, financial, educational or locational. A great year to move, especially if it’s further away from your family! In all seriousness, creative acts of empowerment that broaden your horizons may not sit well with family and friends but you must strike out for higher ground.
*
17 October
The entire year ahead can be summed up in one word – Release. If you can’t move forward it’s because you haven’t cleared a space and made room for your personal growth. Well no worries, that’s all about to change and so is your attitude. I see a much stronger and calmer person emerging out of this crack up phase so don’t despair. You are totally future-focused.
*
18 October
Larger than life moments awaits you in the coming 365 days. Sudden incidents arise that will require quick adjustment to new circumstances along with lots of surprises. Your ability to go with the flow will determine how well you prosper so be prepared for action. Vacations or business trips will be instrumental in opening you up to a wellspring of new connections and friends.
*
19 October
You’re up and positive for most of the 12 months ahead. Keep your focus close to home as you recalibrate for an upswing in your learning curve. 2010 is all about how you invest your resources so do the studies, courses and research necessary to get you up to speed. Remember, the global highway is doubling its information carrying capacity every 18 months.
*
20 October
Say goodbye to any limitations that have held you back. It’s an amazingly thoughtful close to 2009 and a wiser and more serene energy emerges for 2010. You’ve paid your dues for the time being and any debts left over will just have to wait for another year. Meanwhile, the push is on to establish a new home base in which you can snuggle down and enjoy some peace of mind.
*
21 October
It’s going to be a year ahead best used for gaining momentum and consolidating your learning. The jumping off energy is behind you and now it’s time to go for a little more foundational work in whatever it is that you’re working on. You’re still full of great ideas and enthusiasm but now it needs to be tempered with ethics, personal vision and concern for feedback.
*
22 October
More than normal amounts of delays and setbacks are in store as it seems that a final test or two lie in waiting along with some major shifts in your health and work life. The overall pattern pushes you deeper into a more creative space and wants you to clearly identify and claim your inspirational past and bring it forward to make your life a happier place.
*
23 October
It’s time to shun the limelight and exit off center stage for the next 12 months. Retire, rest, seek out solitude. These are your strengths and if you can cultivate them, the harvest will quickly arrive. Watch what comes down between early November til the end of December as this is the payoff for many years of strategic planning. Invest in land and family for 2010.
