Libra Season: The Beauty of Balance
Welcome to Libra Season (September 22 - October 23). As the Sun moves into Libra, the grounded but busy energy of Virgo Season softens into something more graceful and social.

Virgo's energy is discerning, practical, precise, devoted, analytical, and humble, with a quiet eye for the small details that everyone else tends to miss.
