Weekly Intuitive Astrology Sep 16 to 23 ~ Libra Equinox, Chiron RX in Aries, Venusian Tension

The final days of Virgo Season are here, and then we move through the Libra Equinox on September 22, opening a new seasonal chapter centered on balance, relationships, reciprocity, and conscious connection. Yet this Libra Season carries unusual emotional depth as Venus moves slowly through Scorpio, following her opposition to Chiron and square to Pluto in Aquarius, revealing deeper layers around relationships, finances, self-worth, feminine energies, power dynamics, and what must ultimately transform during the months ahead. Chiron retrograde re-enters Aries on September 17, beginning its final seven-month passage through Aries until April 14, 2027, and inviting us to recognize how much we have healed since 2018 around identity, authenticity, independence, courage, and the right to fully be ourselves. Mercury in Libra also creates an important decision-making storyline, opposing Saturn retrograde in Aries at 10 degrees on Sept 18 before sextiling Jupiter in Leo at 21 deg on Sept 21. These two aspects to outer planets suggests that uncertainty or delays may initially require patience, reflection, and careful listening before greater clarity and confidence arrives early next week. As we cross the Equinox portal, the larger invitation is to notice what has become unbalanced, simplify what no longer deserves our energy, and become increasingly intentional about the people, relationships, experiences, and values we choose to prioritize.
