Virgo season helped us transition out of vacation mode and gave us the focus and drive to weather the early fall and all of the responsibilities that came with it. But now that we're grooving in work-mode, I think we can all agree that a change of pace would be much appreciated. Libra season is on the horizon, and with it will come so many changes that you might want to ready yourself with some mediations for Libra season. Yes, the change of tone from Virgo to Libra is intense. We're pulled from a place of isolation and professionalism to a very alluring a place of social engagements and romantic encounters and a lot of other activities that involve being out of the house, out of the office, having fun.

But while the Libra season will certainly make our lives more exciting, socially, at least, they will also add a lot of obstacles and potential stressors that might throw us off balance if we're not careful. Bustle talked astrologer Linda Furiate about the Libra season to help get a better idea of what's in store for us, spiritually. According to Furiate, this time span "offers nature and mankind renewal and reflection." So while we might feel the urge to take on every single social engagement and opportunity we're presented with, we'll also experience a desire to balance out the energy with some time for reflection. "When the Sun is in Libra, this is often a time when compromise is more possible. We are often more willing to listen and to hear the needs of our partner. We may choose to put our partner's needs before our own to keep the peace and to show that we care," Furiate adds, going on to say that it's important to make sure that we find a way to communicate our feelings in a meaning way, while making plenty of room for our partner's feelings, too.

As far as complications go, Furiate suggests that we focus our frustrations inward. Instead of worrying about the behaviors of others, we should spend some time thinking about our own involvement in our issues. "Are you coming on too strong? Are you avoiding an issue? Or are you quite fearful of rocking the boat so you give up your own power and desires?" Furiate encourages us to ask ourselves. Below, I've rounded up a few mediations to help us explore these feelings in a meaningful way that's geared toward the Libra-inspired season. Take a few minutes, whenever you can, to turn your focus inward and follow one of these guided meditations and ensure yourself a healthy and happy Libra season ... that's also fun.
