LIBRA

And in the highest room, in the tallest tower… let’s talk about beginnings that aren’t always as they seem, and castles that are waiting to be conquered, Libra. We’re reaching the final stages of the eclipse axis across your 1st and 7th houses. By next year, it will shift to your 6th and 12th, as the North Node moves into Pisces and the South Node leaves your sign for Virgo. You may have felt the change already, especially with the first lunar eclipse in Pisces last month. We’ll have one more solar (partial) eclipse in Aries next March, but this month brings the last eclipse in your sign for the next 18-19 years—a significant closing of a chapter.

This eclipse, happening alongside the new Moon in your sign on the 2nd, is an Annular Solar Eclipse—one that creates the famous “Ring of Fire.” It’s a fleeting glimpse of insight that comes and goes. A flash of something hidden, a sense of potential that vanishes as quickly as it appears. Is it real? Did you imagine it? This new Moon, as always, signals a new cycle for you, but under the veil of an eclipse, it’s asking you to step back, reframe your personal story, and take ownership of it from this point onward.

Later, you’ll look back and realize that this eclipse was a major turning point—a catalyst for a new beginning that was hidden in plain sight. But it will take time to fully come into focus. And if you’re single, avoid seeking someone new under this energy. The eclipse conjuncts Mercury in your sign, urging you to be mindful of your words—what you say and how you say it. Be just as careful about the stories others tell you. Is there something unsaid, something missing between the lines? Especially when it comes to the narratives you hold about yourself, your relationships, and your past.

Let’s dive into the myths, into the highest room in the tallest tower. Traditionally, the story goes: a person waits in the tower, guarded by a dragon, for the knight who will come and slay the beast, setting them free. But how many versions of this story could there be? In your story, who are you? The person in the tower, the dragon, or the knight?

Take a moment to rewrite it. Does the person in the tower even want to be rescued? Perhaps they chose that place, and it’s their haven. Or maybe they, like Princess Fiona in Shrek, hold onto unrealistic expectations about their rescuer. Are they looking down from that lofty height, believing no one measures up?

Maybe the dragon isn’t the villain at all—maybe it’s a protector. Maybe it needs love, attention, and understanding. What if the knight chooses the dragon, riding away with it and leaving the person in the tower behind? Or perhaps the tower dweller decides to climb down and embrace the dragon, seeing something in it that others missed.

If you see yourself as the knight, the lesson is clear: rescue yourself first. And let others find their own path to freedom. If you’ve always felt the urge to rush in and save others, it’s time to recognize that this need might reflect something within you that needs saving. Imagining yourself in each role—the knight, the dragon, the person in the tower—can help you see your own story from every perspective. And this insight gives you the power to change the ending if that’s what you’re ready for.

Especially under an eclipse, don’t let others mislead you with tales of dragons. A new romantic interest spinning tales of a toxic ex, hoping to draw you in with their hardship? Remember, there are always three sides to every story—yours, theirs, and the truth. The real magic lies in discovering the truth for yourself. It’s the ultimate quest, the climb to the top of the tower to see things clearly.

Trust that you are being quietly led towards reclaiming an opportunity you thought was lost. The path might not be obvious—it’s subtle, deeply personal, and may come in a form you don’t immediately recognize. But because of that, it might just be even more perfect for you.

Pluto is now in its endgame in Capricorn. By November, this chapter impacting your home, your sense of belonging, your lifestyle, and even your path, will come to an end as Pluto shifts into your 5th house, never to return to this part of your chart in your lifetime. So, if you need to make any final changes to where and how you live or address family matters, now’s the time to harness Pluto’s energy one last time.

Your ruler Venus moves on the 17th, the same day the full Supermoon lights up your 7th house of relationships. First, Venus in your 3rd allows you to fully live out that new version of your story—the one you were working on under the eclipse. The shadows are lifting, and with Venus in your house of communication, everything you say, share, or send out into the world is now infused with the allure of your true self. It’s time to craft a message that reflects the real you. Whether it’s in your CV, your social media, or your projects, let your authenticity shine. If you’ve discovered you’re the dragon—fierce, fiery, and fiercely loving—speak from that place. Be true to yourself without needing to “bring the burn.”

The truth will now come to light as the full Supermoon on the 17th squares Mars in your 10th and Pluto in your 4th. This is a profound moment of inner clarity, a knowing about your role in relationships, your worth, and what you truly need. This period marks a powerful shift not just in your relationships but also in how you see yourself.

Carry this newfound awareness forward as the Sun leaves your sign for your 2nd house on the 22nd. There’s one more twist waiting for you at the end of the month. On the 31st, Halloween, the doors between worlds swing open—the spirit world, the multiverse, and beyond. The Moon in your sign opposes Chiron in your 7th, offering a twist to your story and a new chapter in your adventure. Whether you decide to be the dragon, ride the dragon, or rewrite your role entirely, it’s all up to you, Libra. This is your October to choose your destiny.

In a nutshell: This month’s eclipse brings a new twist to an old story. Are you in the tower, waiting for rescue? Or are you the dragon, fierce and protective? Reimagine the tale from different angles, and choose your own ending. The best story is the one you write yourself, Libra.
