Overview for this Month: Libra (All)
September 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Libra:
Introspection continues this month on some levels, dear Libra, but slowly but surely, you find your voice. Mercury and the Sun enter your sign on the 5th and 22nd, respectively, and you emerge from a period of withdrawal and emotional renewal. In the meantime, much is going on behind the scenes. You tend to keep your emotional distance and a lower profile.
The Full Moon on the 2nd can bring a work or health matter to full bloom, which sets you on a new, fresh path. Heightened awareness of your state of self-care or your job reveals that you need to change your approach. You recognize that new methods can be useful to achieve your goals. Tense interpersonal relations can fuel your feelings, epiphanies, and realizations now.
There can be a strained atmosphere in the two days following this lunation, although you learn a lot from your interactions. Rhythms in love or patterns in relating can be a little off, and feelings run hot and cold, mainly due to timing problems and impatience. A straightforward approach may go over as insensitive, but holding back may be interpreted as indifference. Ideally, ups and downs lead to new understanding.
You find your voice with Mercury spending time in your sign from the 5-27. Creatively and romantically, you are getting more attention, but your feelings are still in a state of review. You’re talkative and ready to offer your opinion, but you're still uncertain about your next move in an overall sense. Another outgoing shift occurs on the 6th when Venus heads into your social sector. This move improves your popularity and sense of connectedness.
Even so, Mars turns retrograde on the 9th and will continue in this state until November 13th. Slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations are essential in your relationships, particularly partnerships. There can be weighty issues and delays to manage related to a close connection, legal contract, or negotiation.
You have the chance to reassess how you’ve been dealing with others, and you may be finding new and improved ways of connecting. Taking things slowly is most beneficial.
Particularly from the 8-9, you're giving off good vibes. Focusing on the big picture and putting aside or resolving small differences and problems in your emotional world, personal life, and home and family matters can do wonders for you. Sharing your happiness with others feels right.
There can be times when you're dealing with some lack of clarity, especially related to what is expected of you and what you expect from others. It can be challenging to deal with routine matters if you're not feeling motivated or directed, which is possible now. However, treat this period as a time to regain fuel, motivation, or inspiration. Don't expect too much of yourself. Much is going on behind the scenes, and you don't always feel on top of your game due to general distractions.
Jupiter's direct turn after months of retrograde motion increases your enthusiasm and joy, particularly in your home life and on an emotional level. Gradual improvements to family life are in store, but with Saturn also turning direct here, you're putting in the work to make things happen. Home improvement projects can resume or pick up the pace, and relationships with family may strengthen. You have a real and growing sense that things are getting better.
Excellent energy is with you for recognizing the need to make changes in your personal life, at home, or within. There can also be some beautiful connections made or particular pleasure derived from friends and plans.
The 17th brings a New Moon that's powerful for motivating you to address long-standing problems, particularly those of a personal or private nature. You’ll be focusing on putting dysfunctional areas of your life behind you, and it’s exciting. You must slow down and take things easy, particularly with Mars also now rather newly retrograde.
You'll also find it empowering to pay more attention to managing money from the 20th forward. The Sun enters your sign on the 22nd, and you’re more assertive and engaged. Opportunities emerging now are a little clearer and more straightforward. Personal magnetism moves up a notch. You pay more attention to personal needs and wants, your image, appearance, and health.
There are some hurdles to clear. Challenges between personal space or family and partnerships can be ongoing, but they afford you the chance to resolve conflicts after confronting the issues. Give yourself time on this with Mars retrograde in your opposite sign. Your desire to be free and to act on impulses might frequently clash with the responsibilities you may have to others.
Fortunately, you are gently challenged to improve, take positive action, and go after what you want. While the last week of the month can point to some rising tensions, a Venus-Mars trine can point to some romantic excitement or a rekindling of feelings.
With Saturn turning direct on the 29th, realistically facing your responsibilities puts you in a strong position to manage them. Take things gradually and enjoy the process of bringing more order and security to your personal space and inner world.

Libra (Born September 24 to October 3) and Libra Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Libra:
September 2020 Libra Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 21st:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar twelfth house. This is the time to listen to your intuition, to take a break from the hectic pace of your life, and to reflect on what you have learned in the past year. You might naturally retreat a little and take more private time for yourself now.
Your physical energy levels may not be up to par for the time being, and this is your body signaling you to take a break. This is not an ideal time for pushing forward with new personal projects and plans. It is better to finish up projects and tie up loose ends now.
From September 22nd forward:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 5th:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now. This may be a time when you are especially enjoying your career or position and making the most of it.
From September 6th forward:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 5th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar twelfth house. This is a cycle in which clear decision-making does not come easily. You are paying more attention to unspoken or hidden elements of any circumstance. You are seeing all sides to any given story, and forming a definite opinion does not seem "right" for the time being. Thoughts turn to the past. It's a strong period for gaining different perspectives on problems or issues in your life, as well as for reflection and research, but not the easiest time for presenting your ideas.
From September 6-26:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.
This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.
Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
From September 27th forward:
With Mercury in your solar second house, this is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances during this period. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas.
Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of close partnering and negotiations because Mars rules these areas of your solar chart. Enthusiasm for a partnership or coming from a partner could be waning or not as clear. A partner could seem to be less direct or hard to reach. Partnering projects or initiatives, or negotiations, could stall, or you could find that you are less confident about expressing yourself in a one-to-one manner. Watch for pent-up anger and passive-aggressiveness in your partnerships, and learn from experiences with these things.
Occurring in the sector that Mars rules, all of these themes are magnified. See Mars Retrograde for more details.
Note that Mars sticks around this area of your solar chart for much longer than usual–until January 6th, 2021, but is only retrograde here until November 13th.

Libra (Born October 4 to 13) and Libra Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Libra:
September 2020 Libra Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 14th:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle.

Tense interpersonal relations can fuel your feelings, epiphanies, and realizations now.
There can be a strained atmosphere in the two days following this lunation, although you learn a lot from your interactions. Rhythms in love or patterns in relating can be a little off, and feelings run hot and cold, mainly due to timing problems and impatience. A straightforward approach may go over as insensitive, but holding back may be interpreted as indifference. Ideally, ups and downs lead to new understanding.
You find your voice with Mercury spending time in your sign from the 5-27. Creatively and romantically, you are getting more attention, but your feelings are still in a state of review. You’re talkative and ready to offer your opinion, but you're still uncertain about your next move in an overall sense. Another outgoing shift occurs on the 6th when Venus heads into your social sector. This move improves your popularity and sense of connectedness.
Even so, Mars turns retrograde on the 9th and will continue in this state until November 13th. Slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations are essential in your relationships, particularly partnerships. There can be weighty issues and delays to manage related to a close connection, legal contract, or negotiation.
You have the chance to reassess how you’ve been dealing with others, and you may be finding new and improved ways of connecting. Taking things slowly is most beneficial.
Particularly from the 8-9, you're giving off good vibes. Focusing on the big picture and putting aside or resolving small differences and problems in your emotional world, personal life, and home and family matters can do wonders for you. Sharing your happiness with others feels right.
There can be times when you're dealing with some lack of clarity, especially related to what is expected of you and what you expect from others. It can be challenging to deal with routine matters if you're not feeling motivated or directed, which is possible now. However, treat this period as a time to regain fuel, motivation, or inspiration. Don't expect too much of yourself. Much is going on behind the scenes, and you don't always feel on top of your game due to general distractions.
Jupiter's direct turn after months of retrograde motion increases your enthusiasm and joy, particularly in your home life and on an emotional level. Gradual improvements to family life are in store, but with Saturn also turning direct here, you're putting in the work to make things happen. Home improvement projects can resume or pick up the pace, and relationships with family may strengthen. You have a real and growing sense that things are getting better.
Excellent energy is with you for recognizing the need to make changes in your personal life, at home, or within. There can also be some beautiful connections made or particular pleasure derived from friends and plans.
The 17th brings a New Moon that's powerful for motivating you to address long-standing problems, particularly those of a personal or private nature. You’ll be focusing on putting dysfunctional areas of your life behind you, and it’s exciting. You must slow down and take things easy, particularly with Mars also now rather newly retrograde.
You'll also find it empowering to pay more attention to managing money from the 20th forward. The Sun enters your sign on the 22nd, and you’re more assertive and engaged. Opportunities emerging now are a little clearer and more straightforward. Personal magnetism moves up a notch. You pay more attention to personal needs and wants, your image, appearance, and health.
There are some hurdles to clear. Challenges between personal space or family and partnerships can be ongoing, but they afford you the chance to resolve conflicts after confronting the issues. Give yourself time on this with Mars retrograde in your opposite sign. Your desire to be free and to act on impulses might frequently clash with the responsibilities you may have to others.
Fortunately, you are gently challenged to improve, take positive action, and go after what you want. While the last week of the month can point to some rising tensions, a Venus-Mars trine can point to some romantic excitement or a rekindling of feelings.
With Saturn turning direct on the 29th, realistically facing your responsibilities puts you in a strong position to manage them. Take things gradually and enjoy the process of bringing more order and security to your personal space and inner world.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
