As the earth has shifted out of earth sign Virgo and into air sign Libra, the energy has become more free thinking, experimental and adventurous. The sun moved into Libra on Sept. 23 and will stay until Oct. 22.

According to astrology.com Libra is ruled by the planet Venus which brings harmony, peace and love to the world. Those born under a Libra sun are likely elegant, graceful and social people. They’re naturally artistic and well spoken.

The symbol of Libra is the scales, thus the emphasis on peace and harmony. Libras naturally strive for balance and communion. Often Libras can be extremist and go through intense phases on their path to balance. Astrology.com claims that Libra season’s beginning correlating with the autumnal equinox is not a fluke. As the light shifts on the equinox bringing more equal time of day and night, the Libra energy brings that same desire to those open to it.

To harness the energy of this harmony it’s essential that one follows their intuition and trusts their body’s clock. As college students it can feel like motivation is either flooding or nonexistent. The sign of Libra wants you to slow down and come to your center. Rather than rushing from one extreme to the other, invite in a rhythmic pattern of work and rest.

The Autumnal Equinox invites  a sense of newness. The equinoxes bring a desire for change – notice how the shops are filled with fall scented candles and pinecone. Even during the Vernal Equinox there’s a pull to start “spring cleaning.” Free-horoscope.com urges you to pay attention to where obstacles and frustrations test you. Like the trees, you’re invited to let these things go.
