We love Libra season, but so many planets are clashing with two of the most intense planets of the zodiac: Pluto and Saturn! These clashes light a fire under our asses to be proactive and actually respond to our passions and insecurities (Plutonian behaviors run very deep!). Essentially, this Libra season finds us making changes to address imbalances in power, and (since Libra is the sign of justice) injustices. Aesthetic Venus clashes with power planet Pluto on Tuesday, October 1, which can be sexy depending on who you ask! This could also point to a change in personal values. Venus isn’t just perfume and jewelry, it also rules values!

Shady shenanigans abound as the planet of secrets, Pluto, ends its retrograde, bringing hot tea from the underworld. Pluto is an outer planet that spends nearly half of the year retrograding, but pay attention to this week as Pluto is more still than usual, bringing awareness and proverbial paper jams to lasting structures of power, especially those which are inherited or grandfathered in. Also on Thursday, October 3, Mercury, planet of communication, enters quiet and emotional Scorpio. The coming weeks of Mercury’s trip through Scorpio brings deep and mysterious insight. Things are communicated less with words, and more with emotional affect.Action planet Mars enters Libra on Friday, October 4, bringing a fierce and ruthless attitude toward matters of diplomacy and relationships. It’s truly hard for the warrior planet to fight in pacifist Libra—whenever you’re taking everyone else into consideration it’s not easy to pick fights or be aggressive the way Mars would like, but sometimes inaction is action in itself! Avoid being passive aggressive and just do what you want regardless of what other people think.All times ET.
