Astrology Musings for Libra Season
A time of transition is upon us. Libra season asks us to shift our judgement from ‘me’ to ‘we’. In the Gregorian calendar we are heading into the fourth and final chapter of the year, but when looking at time through the lens of astrology this season is only our halfway point. The first six astrological signs pertain to our personal lives and inner worlds (Aries - Virgo), now the sun will be moving into the seventh sign which illuminates how we relate to the world and others. The sun is in Libra from September 22nd to October 22nd, and on September 22nd the daylight and nighttime will be a perfectly equal 12 hours each. The theme for all of us at this time is collaboration and balance. Find your ascendent (rising sign) below for some inspiration more personal to you and explore a tea we’ve chosen for your sign. It’s a perfect time to share a cuppa with someone special.
ARIES: Yoga Chai Tea
This season asks you to connect with others and fill up your cup with the relationships in your life. Instead of brushing quarrels under the carpet, speak your truth and shine your light. The energy of the peacemaker archetype is with you this libra season.
TAURUS: Daily Detox Tea
Spend some time kitchen witchin’ and make some tinctures or herbal syrups to prepare for the colder months ahead. Our Fall Herbal Medicine Making Box has some great recipes to try out.
Reflect on your habits to see what’s working and not working for you.
GEMINI: Wild Blueberry Rooibos Tea
Let your inner child out to play this libra season. This would be a perfect time to host a crafting night. If you’re collaborating on a creative project, feel into the joyful power of the sun on your side.
CANCER: Creamy Earl Grey Tea
Spend some time with your home and see if it makes you feel both energized and calm. A decluttering session is a great way to familiarize yourself with what you already have, and balance that feeling of always wanting more. If you’re wanting to breathe new life into your space, try upcycling items you already own, or finding treasures out in nature.
LEO: Songbird Tea
This is a time to feel connected to your community. As mercury rules the third house (where the sun is for you this season) it would be so fitting to host a potluck and tell your friends to bring a dish and poem to share. The Mercantile on 9th market has a great feeling of community and we’d love to see you there for the Harvest Market on October 5th.
VIRGO: Breathe Tea
Libra asks you to balance the energy of spending and saving. What value already lies in your home? This is the perfect time to cook recipes from books you already have. A home cooked dinner is a great way to feel true wealth.
LIBRA: Alpen Glow Tea
You’re at the start of a new chapter. If you are feeling out of balance, focus on what you need to feel your best. As a libra rising you probably have some great ideas in your repertoire for restoring your equilibrium. If you’ve been thinking about getting a new haircut or pair of glasses to express your style, this is your sign.
SCORPIO: Dream Tea
As one door closes a new one opens. This month you may feel extra intuitive, so have a ponder on what no longer serves you. Dream up what your next 6 months will look like. The universe is on your side.
SAGITTARIUS: Jasmine Gold Dragon Tea
Be your eccentric self! Shining your light will brighten others' day. This libra season is all about community for you. The only thing you need to take seriously is how much laughter and fun you're having. This is a lovely time to make new connections. Check out our new offering, a book club! Join us on October 18th.
CAPRICORN: Clarity Tea
Themes around your career and how you’re perceived are in the limelight this season. Are you showing up as your best self? This is your permission slip to take up space.
AQUARIUS: Jasmint Tea
Dive deeper into your expansion. If you’ve been thinking about signing up for a course, do it! Learning something new can elevate so many areas of your life. We have lots of great workshops at The Apothecary in Inglewood, we’d love to see you there.
PISCES: Monk’s Blend Tea
Tap into the yin and yang energy of this time and explore how it’s showing up in your life. Is your self care time balanced with your social life? This is a perfect time to start a journaling practice. Make a list of what you’re grateful for from the spring and summertime and what you desire for the autumn and winter ahead.
