Libra Season

Cover sign: Libra (The Socialite)

October is The Socialite's month and they are in it completely. The season is at its most beautiful: the light, the colours, the evenings with their perfect quality of cool-meets-warm. Your Libra has curated October with the quiet authority of someone who does this every year and knows exactly how good it can be when it's done right.

Venus retrograde in Scorpio from the 3rd asks whether the beautiful arrangement covers something, whether the curation is a question or an answer. For a Venus-ruled sign, having their planet go backward in Scorpio, of all places, is a development The Socialite finds mildly confrontational. They manage it with characteristic grace: they consider the question, find it interesting, and arrange it very nicely. When the sun moves into Scorpio on the 23rd, The Socialite hands the season over, having made October exactly what it should have been. Venus retrograde moves into Libra itself on the 25th, which is frankly rude, but they were ready to pass the month along by then anyway.
