*I suggest marking your calendar with each date and putting the energetic signature, intention and practice there or somewhere in your notes so you can capitalize on these amazing energies Earth provides.
♎️ Libra Season (September 22 – October 22)
After Virgo’s grounded refinement, Libra arrives to bring balance and connection. Where Virgo focused on the details of health and order, Libra reminds us that life is lived in relationship—with self, with others, and with the world around us. This is a season of recalibration, seeking harmony not as perfection but as flow. Libra teaches that beauty and peace arise when we honor reciprocity and allow balance to shift naturally.
Energy Signature: Harmonizing, relational, attuning. A season of rebalancing through co-regulation, compassion, and clarity.
Practice: Each day, pause in an interaction—whether with a partner, a colleague, or yourself—and ask: “Does my body feel safe and balanced here?” If the answer is no, take one small regulating action (step back, slow your breath, soften your eyes) before continuing. Close the day by placing one hand on your heart and whispering: “Balance begins within.”
🌕 Monday, October 6th, 11:47 PM EST: Full Moon in Aries
This Harvest Supermoon illuminates independence, courage, and raw desire. Aries lights the fire of initiation—showing us where we’ve suppressed anger, impulse, or vitality. As a Supermoon, the energy is heightened; emotions may feel urgent or uncontainable. This lunation pushes the nervous system into high alert, surfacing fight-or-flight impulses. The medicine lies in allowing those sparks without burning out—transforming reactivity into clarity, self-trust, and bold new cycles.
Energy Signature: Fierce clarity, emotional release, and embodied sovereignty. A time to confront intensity with grounding, to transmute raw charge into empowered choice.
Practice: Place your feet on the ground and press firmly—feeling the strength of the Earth supporting you. As the Moon rises, breathe into your belly, lengthening each exhale to soothe the sympathetic charge. Write down what no longer fuels your vitality—habits, fears, obligations—and burn or tear the paper. As you release, whisper: “My nervous system can feel intensity without losing center.” Close with a long, weighted hug (self-hug or with another), letting your system settle into safety after release.
Monday, October 6th: Mercury Enters Scorpio
Thought dives deep under this influence—Mercury in Scorpio sharpens perception and brings unconscious material to the surface. Conversations may carry more weight; hidden truths may reveal themselves. The nervous system can feel the pull into intensity, amplifying vigilance or fixation. The invitation is to listen with the body as much as the mind, allowing information to be metabolized rather than overwhelmed.
Energy Signature: Depth, psychic listening, and investigative clarity.
Practice: In meditation or journaling, ask: “What is beneath this thought?” Then pause. Notice sensations in your body—heat, tightness, tingling—and describe them without judgment. If activation rises, place one hand on your sternum, one on your belly, and hum slowly until you feel a subtle drop in tension. End with three grounding breaths into the spine.
Monday, October 13th: Venus Enters Libra
Venus returning home to Libra rebalances relationships, beauty, and harmony. This transit invites us to repair threads of connection—with ourselves and others. Nervous systems co-regulate; balance in relationship is not about perfection, but presence. This season encourages practices of attunement: slowing down, listening, and honoring both self and other.
Energy Signature: Harmony, relational balance, and gentle recalibration.
Practice: Sit across from a trusted partner or friend. Soften your gaze and match breath rhythms for a few minutes. Notice how your system shifts as you attune. Then, ask yourself: “Where do I abandon myself in connection? Where do I find safety?” Journal 1–2 small relational boundaries or rituals that could help your system feel steadier.
✨ Monday, October 13th: Pluto Stations Direct in Aquarius
Pluto shifting direct begins a collective and personal forward motion in transformation. Themes of power, truth, and collective evolution re-emerge after months of inward excavation. For the nervous system, this can feel like intensity rising from the underground—a surge of buried material wanting movement. It’s a call to rewire survival patterns into resilience.
Energy Signature: Emergence, regeneration, and reclamation of power.
Practice: Find a comfortable seat, spine tall. As you breathe, imagine drawing energy up from your root into your heart with each inhale, and releasing it down through your feet on the exhale. Place both hands over your heart and repeat: “My nervous system can hold transformation. I am safe in change.” Move your body afterward (shake, dance, or walk) to discharge excess activation and ground integration.
🌙 Tuesday, October 21st, 8:25 AM EST: New Moon in Libra
This New Moon resets our relational compass. Libra asks: how do we balance giving and receiving, listening and expressing? The nervous system is a mirror here—showing us when harmony is genuine or when it costs too much. This lunation calls for planting seeds of reciprocity, clarity, and balance in relationships, especially those that nourish the body and spirit equally.
Energy Signature: Relational reset, sacred agreements, and inner balance.
Practice: Write 3 intentions that honor balance in your daily life (e.g., rest/work, self/other, silence/speech). Place one hand over your chest and say each aloud slowly, pausing to feel your body’s response. If activation arises, take a pause—remind your system: “Balance is built slowly; I can take my time.” Seal the practice by placing your intention list beneath a stone or plant, symbolizing rooted equilibrium.
Wednesday, October 22nd: Sun Enters Scorpio & Neptune Re-enters Pisces
The Sun’s entry into Scorpio marks descent into shadow season, inviting truth, depth, and transformation. On the same day, Neptune slides back into Pisces, amplifying sensitivity, dreams, and porous boundaries. Together, these transits blur edges and heighten intuition. For the nervous system, this may feel like both intensity and dissolution—an invitation to strengthen boundaries while honoring permeability.
Energy Signature: Mystical descent, boundary awareness, and spiritual sensitivity.
Practice: Before sleep, visualize a soft cocoon of light around your body, signaling to your nervous system: safe, contained, held. Journal a dream or intuitive nudge upon waking this week. Practice shaking or tapping your body to release overstimulation, then sit in silence for two minutes, letting your breath anchor you back into your own center.
For the nervous system, this month is a dance between activation and settling. Aries and Pluto bring raw voltage, while Libra and Venus ask for co-regulation and balance. Scorpio and Neptune remind us that the descent into depth requires safe containment and gentle pacing. The through-line is learning to let our bodies metabolize intensity instead of override or collapse.
