Libra Season is Here! Rosalía, Bella Hadid, Doja Cat & More
Get ready for a charming new season to embrace harmony and balance
As we transition into Libra season from September 23rd to October 22nd, we step into the enchanting realm of balance, harmony, and love. Following the structured Virgo season and the fiery fervor of Leo, Libra season invites us to embrace these qualities. It’s a time influenced by Venus, encouraging a deep appreciation for art, aesthetics, and beauty. Use this season to indulge in your creativity and artistic efforts.
The Sign of Libra
Libra is the seventh sign of the zodiac and is ruled by Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and aesthetics. Those born under the sign of Libra are known for their charm, diplomacy, and a strong desire for fairness and justice. Libras are symbolized by the Scales, representing their innate need for equilibrium and balance in all aspects of life.
They are natural peacemakers, and this time of year encourages us to seek harmony in our connections with others. It’s an ideal period for resolving conflicts, mending fences, or even embarking on new relationships, as Libra’s diplomatic nature promotes open communication and compromise.
Balance
Libra season coincides with the fall equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, a time when day and night are of equal length. Symbolically, this aligns with Libra’s emphasis on balance and equality. It’s a moment to appreciate the beauty of transition, as nature prepares for the serene and introspective months of autumn. During this time, we should also examine areas where we may be leaning too heavily in one direction. Are we neglecting our personal needs for the sake of work? Are we giving too much in our relationships without receiving in return? Libra season encourages us to recalibrate and find the middle ground.

Her debut album, Let Go, was released shortly thereafter and achieved immense success, becoming the best-selling album of the 21st century by a Canadian artist.

Eminem & Snoop Dog
Capitalizing on the fact that they’re not just friends and iconic rap stars, they also share the Libra zodiac sign. Eminem, born with the birth name Marshall Bruce Mathers III, entered the world in Saint Joseph, Missouri, on October 17, 1972. Eminem skyrocketed to global fame with the launch of iconic albums such as The Slim Shady LP and The Marshall Mathers LP. His subsequent releases continued this meteoric rise, solidifying his status as one of the best-selling music artists in history.
Snoop was born just a few days later, on October 20, but in the year 1971, in Long Beach, California. Surprisingly, despite Eminem appearing much younger than his actual age, Snoop and Marshall are separated by just a one-year difference. So… Snoop needs no introduction, as his musical journey and hits speak for themselves, but he also embodies Libra’s chill, easygoing qualities. In 2017, he even posted a celebratory (but low-key) Instagram video to commemorate Libra season.
