sidereal libra season oracle reflections for the elements + numbers

the sun entered sidereal libra on october 17 following what felt like a lengthy and arduous transit through virgo. in libra, the sun is in its fall, navigating the lessons and challenges associated with seeing life through lenses other than our own. compared to its exaltation in aries where the will is directed towards autonomy, control, and self-preservation even at the cost of severance, the sun in libra takes a more relational approach — the i’s become we and the me becomes us. while it is required to consider the perspective of others especially in relationship, it becomes sticky when we consider others so much that we lose sight of ourselves, our wants, desires, and perspectives. the sun in libra can be a subtle self-obliteration if we’re not careful to stand on our own two feet and be directed by our own impulse when required.
