The Moon Is in Libra, and You're Looking for Balance

The Moon Enters Libra at 5:17 AM

This morning, the moon moves into peace-loving, open-minded Libra—the absolute queen of deliberation and the pros/cons list. Libra loves beauty and balance, and absolutely hates confrontation and chaos.

Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, so focusing on those two things is quite natural during this transit. Pamper yourself or a loved one. Experiment with your personal style. Spend some time revamping your home decor.

What This Could Mean for Your Social Life

You’ll feel a bit more social than you have lately, and you’re open to new connections and acquaintances. However, it’s likely that you won’t want to spend time around a crowd of people. It’s a good time to spend some uninterrupted moments with a friend, peer, or partner.

Libra is the sign of projection, and you may be longing to see yourself in someone else’s eyes. You’re likely to spend time with someone you feel is a mirror of yourself—or at least a mirror of a certain aspect of yourself. It’s good to spend this transit with one specific sounding board or confidante. It would be an excellent time for collaboration with that person.

It’s also a good time for lighthearted entertaining and socializing, just maybe not in huge groups.

For the next couple of days, we’re really drawn in to other people’s points of view, because we long to see all sides of a situation. A friendly debate could be fun, but your main goal is peace, harmony, and understanding. We want to bring balance to every situation.

This could cause us to be overly sensitive to some reactions. And going out of your way to ensure everyone around you is happy could give others the idea that you’re a pushover. Be very conscious of your boundaries so that you don’t end up being walked all over.

What This Could Mean for Your Career

Libra is an air sign, and as such, words can flow quite easily right now. It’s a good time to express yourself in writing, or to give a presentation on a cause you’re passionate about. You’re drawn to intellectual topics, arts, and culture.

Because of our longing for balance, meditation could turn out well for us. But because our decision making is quite slow and deliberate, negotiation might not be our strongest skill at this time.
