Mars entered Libra 9/14 at 5:14pm pst

Out of nit-picky, helpful Virgo into indecisive, diplomatic Libra - the need to perfect and critique everything dwindles out as we’ve moved into an energy of seeing the beauty in all and finding balance. We’re all more likely to weigh out our options, see all sides of things &/or take action in response to others instead of it being purely from ourselves.

Venus ruled Libra is cardinal 🜁 air - bringing us back up over the surface, keeping things nice, light and romantical. You can see why Mars would be a little uncomfortable here as he’s spunky and likes a fight, but this doesn’t mean Mars will just lay down, he just learns to be sly & weaponizes the airy Libra charm to get what he wants.

During this transit you may notice &/or feel a tendency to dress things up & make it sound good. There’s a heightened ability to see the other side of things/people right now. We are more likely to find compromise during this Libra transit and find ways to work with others/things that we usually would give a hard no to in order to reach a goal/get things done. Thus, teaching us balance in our pursuits, seeing the beauty in our journeys & connections and strengthening our ability to woo our ways to success. This transit is much less forceful, and more about finesse - sometimes it’s not what you know but who you know & Mars here is about working smarter not harder. Utilize your social skills and people you trust to get what you’re needing & get things done. Practice give and take & play fair - harmonize & make sure things work for everyone involved. Being selfish & shrewd in your pursuits will only tip the scales and end up fucking yourself over the hardest in the end.

Some things to be mindful of during this transit include passive aggression, being manipulative, deceitful &/or undercutting to get what you want, extreme indecisiveness that can lead to anxiety, a tendency toward superficiality & making things seem like more (or something other) than what they actually are. Like I said find balance, ask for others opinions/feelings if you’re unsure how to go about something, what to say etc.. & be honest even if it’s not ideal.

Libra energy teaches us to see the different sides of things & come to a middle ground within it - helping us harmonize and keep a balance in our lives. Use this time to do just that. ♡
