Taurus | Libra Season 2025
The Universal Overlay
Libra Season | September 22 - October 22
An exhale arrives, partially filled with grief and partially with relief. As we return to equal day and night, with night and the dark feminine overcoimng the light yang energy, we move toward a more communal approach to life, cooperative and relational. We notice how we affect others, how they affect us, and how everything is in relation to everything else. An aesthetic quality unfurls here, as does a karmic one. This season, we face what we began in the self-oriented spring. Life is seen with context rather than pure impulse. Because of this, we find ourselves needing to take accountability for the past or ask it of others. Libra calls us to restore balance, fairness, and harmony, but this often requires deconstructing and reckoning with past insensitivity. On the surface, the season can feel destabilizing, yet in truth, it carries a transitional energy. It asks us to accept where we've landed after spring and summer's growth, to negotiate fairness, and listen with heart for what is resonant and trustworthy. As the days begin to shorten, we may experience the Sun's recession as either sadness or elation. Those with a more feminine orientation often welcome the easing of solar pressure, as it invites reflection, dreaming, and inner depth. Those with a more concrete or yang orientation may feel fear heightened, as though the world is closing in on their active desires. Where do you fall? Perhaps you are balanced, and the equinox seasons bring you the best of both worlds—a melding of inner and outer harmony. I find that this equal night and day brings a kind of great compromise, with most people finding their yin or yang dominance gently appeased by the season's balance. Seek agreements with others. Invite balance in your life and harmony in the air. Find common ground, cultivate empathy, and build bridges of trust. Engage in deep conversations, commitments, and gracious exchanges. Most of all, listen to the season. Its whispers are subtle, but they reveal your elegance. Seasonal Rhythm
SUN IN The 6th HOUSE | Earth in the 12th House
Developing priorities
As the Sun and Earth move through the signs and houses, they trace an axis of reach and depth within you, guiding your growth toward a fuller, more balanced expression. Each season, the yearly new moon seeds of your sign move through their own phases of growth, anchoring the time with added depth and texture. At the same time, the season itself casts its own lens, shaping how others perceive you and layering new dimensions into the unfolding of your story. Together, these threads weave the central theme of your season’s tale.
At the heart of it all, the ruling planet of the season steps forward as the protagonist. The house it inhabits reveals the setting, while the sign colors the quality and tone of the action. In this way, the scene of your story takes shape. Woven together, these elements create the living theatre of your season.
The Theme
This season is a story of priorities. With the Sun lighting up your sixth house, the spotlight falls on the patterns of your days—the work you devote yourself to, the skills you refine, the ways you align purpose with practice. Yet the way your Taurus nature is seen through Libra’s eighth house grants you a deeper aura: you are perceived as empowering, strategic, and transformative. Others receive you as someone who holds insight into what is shared and unseen, a guide through the complexities of intimacy and resource.
Meanwhile, your yearly seeds are entering the mythic phase of meeting the goddess. Detours and comparisons pull your focus outward—toward others, toward temptations, toward the lure of alternatives. Yet within this disorientation lies the opportunity to glimpse your higher self, the part of you that can make choices not from habit, but from wisdom. The task is to discern what truly matters, and in so doing, reorder your commitments. Priorities crystallize in the interplay between service and empowerment, between daily effort and higher calling.
The Scenes
Enter Venus, your ruling planet and the season’s heroine.
In the opening act, she appears in your fifth house of Virgo. The scene is creative, warm, and commanding, suffused with a refining quality. Here, the focus is on play as devotion, artistry as discipline, and the polish of your talents. You are cast as a creator—one who shapes beauty not by accident, but through attentive craft and care.
Then, on October 13th, Venus crosses into your sixth house of Libra. The set shifts toward the structures of work, wellness, and lifestyle. This act is about balance in the everyday, elegance in the ordinary. The harmonizing quality of Libra infuses your routines, inviting you to design a way of life that feels both relational and refined. Now the scene is about purpose in practice: how your priorities translate into the daily forms of service and care.
Integration
The theme of priorities is woven through each act. First, Venus calls you to polish your creative spark, shaping joy into something purposeful. Then, she leads you into the refinement of daily rhythms, where what truly matters is lived out in your work and wellness. Empowerment flows from seeing yourself clearly—detours and temptations included—and in choosing with wisdom, you align both your worth and your service with the beauty of a higher design.
Lyrical Summary
Work becomes art,
and art becomes service.
You are seen as a keeper of depth,
a voice of strategy and power.
Detours tempt, comparisons distract,
yet each choice shapes your priorities.
First, Venus crowns you in creativity,
then she guides your hand in rhythm—
until the pattern of your days
sings of balance, beauty, and higher worth.

Your Archetypal Journey
Venus in 5th & 6th Houses | Attraction to the Dark Horse
The planet that rules your sign gives you an archetype—a leading character flavor. This planet is a central part of how you show up and your personal agenda. We go on journeys in the skin of our archetypes, like leading characters in books and films. Your ruler, Venus, is the Heroine, the Earthy Lover, the Empress, and the Sensitive Appreciator
While the planet ruling the season may step into the spotlight, it only holds center stage for that particular season. In contrast, your ruling planet is always active in your story—sometimes as the main character, other times as a subplot or supporting role. I like to follow its journey, much like a hero’s or heroine’s path, by tracing its synodic cycle in relation to Earth.
Venus: The Heroine | Stage: The Choosen One → Meeting the Beast | Signs: Virgo & Libra | Houses: 5th & 6th | Aries 12th House-Themed Journey
The seed of this Venus journey was planted in Aries in your 12th house, in March—the secret chambers of longing, solitude, and unseen emotional currents. Here, the heroine began in quiet contemplation, sensing both the depth of her desires and the invisible threads that shape her world. The permission of happiness was whispered in the soul: you are worthy, you are whole—but the world outside is more complex than the perfection imagined.
Now, in Libra Season, Venus travels Virgo in your 5th house, entering the Fair Maiden/Chosen One stage. The heroine awakens her own capacity: she is clever, capable, and eager to navigate the ordinary world with a balance of heart and reason. The once-daunting forest of challenges—emotions tangled with logic—becomes a space to practice confidence and resourcefulness. Your creativity, romantic expression, and personal joy are lit from within. You can trust your instincts, and your mind sharpens to act with discernment in matters of the heart, desire, and self-expression.
On October 13th, Venus crosses into Libra in your 6th house, entering the Meeting the Beast stage. Here, the heroine encounters what she has long projected outside herself: shadow, otherness, and the allure of the unknown. This is a stage of soul recognition, where attraction to the “dark other” mirrors the untamed, mysterious parts of your own being. The challenge is to face it consciously, to meet what feels threatening or irresistible with awareness rather than reaction. Here, the call is to discern, integrate, and reclaim autonomy while honoring desire.
This journey invites you to step fully into the balance of heart and agency. What you’ve cultivated in the Fair Maiden stage—confidence, clarity, and courage—now meets the test of recognition: can you face the shadow without losing your center? Can you embrace the complexity of desire without giving away your power?
Venus’s path through Libra Season reminds you that the heroine’s journey is never linear. Each stage—Fair Maiden, Meeting the Beast—prepares you for the next threshold: claiming voice, transforming what once frightened you, and ultimately returning to a life that blends abundance with wisdom, desire with discernment, and heart with leadership.
This season, Taurus, your love, creativity, and sense of self are called to move from capable and clever to conscious and empowered. The ordinary world meets the extraordinary depths of your heart—and you are learning to navigate both with grace.
