Your Weekly Horoscope Brings the Autumn Equinox & a Chance for a Fresh Start

Your horoscope for the week of September 22 to 28 is full of change, but not in a bad way. We may be in the middle of eclipse season, but that doesn’t mean the Universe isn’t lining up something sweet for us all. Continue having faith in the process, because there’s always something special in store.

Right off the bat, the sun enters Libra and launches the autumn equinox on September 22 at exactly 8:43 a.m. ET. This time of year is about finding balance and harmony after an intense and high-energy summer season. Fall is finally underway, you are encouraged to begin harvesting all that you’ve worked so hard for this year. And with Venus entering Scorpio—the fixed water sign of passion and intensity—later that same night, the seasonal shift feels like a night-and-day difference. The Libra sun immediately forms a trine with transformative Pluto just as Venus squares off with Pluto, bringing you deep into your feels and forcing you to acknowledge uncomfortable truths.

New plans and ideas will emerge by September 24, when brainy Mercury forms a trine with innovative Uranus. This will encourage you to try something that goes against the grain, inspiring groundbreaking endeavors. However, as Mercury opposes mystical and disorienting Neptune on September 25, it may be harder to bring these ideas into reality. Instead of forcing it, use this energy to daydream, brainstorm, and visualize your ideal future. By the time Mercury forms a trine with revealing Pluto on September 26, you may discover something completely unexpected.
