Libra Weekly Horoscope

This week can feel intense and dramatic one moment, only to feel very free and adventurous the next, so know that you can indeed experience a little bit of everything in the coming days. On the 16th, the skies will host the beautiful New Moon in Taurus and your 8th House of Shared Resources and Deep Bonding, which is going to present you with several special opportunities to transform your life into something special. The 8th House is innately extreme territory, and covers a lot of the heavier aspects of life, everything from sex to death to major finances, but as extreme as these issues can be, they can also be quite rewarding provided you are willing to deal with them, so don’t get cowed if you find yourself confronted with some rather heady or heavy issues, because the chance for something special to come out of it all is very potent. Likewise, the 8th House also governs secrets and a certain sense of mystery, so don’t be surprised if it feels like you need to put on your detective’s cap in order to get down to business.

The mood changes the very next day, and you are sure to embrace this change for the better! Things have indeed felt rather intense the last couple of weeks while messenger Mercury plodded along through Taurus and your private 8th house, but the mood is changing to something much more open and free on the 17th as Mercury flies into Gemini and your far-flung 9th House of Adventure and Expansion for its annual visit. After all the heaviness of the 8th House, you can now look at the world with fresh eyes and think about all the ways you would like to broaden your horizons, whether that means returning to school to further your education, or plotting out your next adventure to far-off locations. The 9th House is innately curious territory, so this is a good time to be open-minded and learn a few new things that can make it that much easier to face the world in general; remember what they say: knowledge is power!

Just in case this wasn’t enough of a change, Mercury will be conjoining rebel Uranus almost as soon as it enters Gemini on the 17th, stirring up the energy and offering you a few unexpected yet very exciting opportunities to break out of any boundaries or barriers that may have been keeping you fenced in recently. Uranus is all about surprise and the unexpected, so you may receive a message from far away that enables you to go off and explore new ideas or new places, literally or metaphorically. This is the first time in about 80 years that these two planets are syncing up in this sector, so you ought to enjoy it as much as you can because you never know what exciting things will arise!
