9/22/22 ✨ Libra Season + Mercury Cazimi
✨ Happy Jupiter Day!
SUN IN LIBRA | MOON IN LEO
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I see new perspectives.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
☀️ SUN ➡️ LIBRA ♎️ (6:04 PM PT)
Libra Season is a time to lean into balance and harmony. The sun moves into the sign of the scales on the autumn equinox, marking a sweet spot between summer and fall. We notice the beauty around us more easily as the leaves begin to change and turn brilliant colors. Don’t be surprised if you feel like sprucing up your own surroundings too. We enjoy beautiful environments and appreciate the finer things in life now. Our focus is on our close relationships, now. We strive for peaceful dynamics, making this a powerful season for negotiations and collaborations. Libra is an air sign, activating our mind. We’re more likely to weigh our options and debate what’s truly fair during this season. Libras are known for being indecisive, but don’t be fooled by their easygoing nature. Libra is a cardinal sign, making them natural leaders with a beautiful ability to express their authority in a way that’s fair and gentle. They embody both feminine and masculine qualities, setting an example of how we can all balance our yin and yang this season.
♎️ SUN CONJUNCT ♎️ MERCURY rx (0º) 11:49 PM PT
A few short hours after Libra season begins, the Mercury retrograde passes through the heart of the sun at 0º. This is called Mercury Cazimi. (The word “cazimi” comes from the Arabic term for “in the heart of the Sun.”) When this happens, our mind dominates our experience for a moment. Insights are possible and beautiful ideas can come through. With this powerful transit playing out in the fair and balanced sign of Libra, we can see someone else’s perspective clearly now. The 0º of Cardinal signs are also called the World Points- marking the change of the seasons. We could experience collective insights or conversations that shift consciousness on a global level.

THE MOON:
🌘 WANING CRESCENT MOON IN ♌️ LEO
The waning crescent moon in Leo asks us to release and surrender to the performance of our emotions. This is a powerful transit to let yourself be fully expressed. Release your pride and ego and surrender to play and creativity.
♌️ MOON SQUARE ♉️ URANUS rx (18º) 2:00 AM PT
The moon squares Uranus on Thursday morning, creating a disruption or change of pace. Stay open to surprises or breakthroughs today… but also be prepared for moon swings or outbursts. You might have dramatic dreams if you sleep through this transit. Uranus is the focal point of a T-square to Saturn, making change a cornerstone of our experience.
♌️ MOON OPPOSITE ♒️ SATURN rx (19º) 4:00 AM PT
The moon opposes Saturn shortly after its square to Uranus (remember, these planets are still squaring each other, bringing big lessons and changes,) bringing fears and doubts front and center. We might feel like isolating or doing our own thing today. Give yourself time and space to process.
VOID MOON FROM 6:00 AM PT - END OF DAY
The moon is void for the rest of the day, giving us a break from the drama. Things can calm down now.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Welcome to Libra Season and Happy Fall, y’all! We start this new season with a bang as Mercury passes through the heart of the sun. But this phenomenon- known as Mercury Cazimi- is happening on the World Point. With this conjunction at 0º Libra, global negotiations are possible and new perspectives can be gained. These talks could play out over the next month with so much Libra energy to work with over the coming weeks. In our own lives, the focus is on our relationships now. We’ll be feeling the shifting of the seasons as the waning Leo moon squares Uranus early this morning, creating a disruption or change. Moodiness and drama could be on the menu… Especially as Uranus becomes the focal point of a T-Square to Saturn and the moon. Allowing ourself to find some wiggle room to play in the midst of fear and doubt can lead to breakthroughs.
