Mercury in Libra reminds us how to balance speaking with listening, and flirtation with directness. It’s time to add a little sugar to your strategies. All your communications — be they work pitches, blog posts, or intimate debriefs with your loves — benefit from a dash of thoughtfulness. Turning your volume down when you sense a friend needs to vent — and up when you have something to get off your chest — blesses your exchanges with something special: equanimity. Mercury in Libra knows how to use every trick in the bag to communicate a message effectively. Luring with honey rather than vinegar isn’t just the “nice” thing to do: it’s tactical. From legal briefs to flirtation campaigns, Mercury in this air sign arranges words to win. Deftly. With a heartier-than-usual dose of charm. In fact, Mercury in Libra is so skillful that personal victories can cause even supposed “opponents” to cheer. Why? Because the ultimate success for Libra isn’t personal gain alone. It’s finessing win-wins for all. Your Mercury in Libra horoscopes are meant to be read as inspiration. If you know both your rising sign and Sun sign, please read both horoscopes.

Thank you for your support and for spreading this work around. We really appreciate it — and you. The following horoscopes were written by Grace Mungovan. [Aries glyph] []Aries & Aries Rising With Mercury in Libra, it’s not your way or the highway — it can be a carpool. Ask your nearest and dearest for feedback on how well they feel you’re listening to them. Read books that sharpen your negotiation skills, or teach you how to employ your loves’ love languages. You’ve likely learned a thing or two about connecting with others during Mercury’s recent retrograde. Being mindful about how you relate to others will continue to unscramble mixed signals in the weeks ahead. Practice communication as a two-way street. Giving and receiving, when balanced, create a harmonious feedback loop. Say your piece, then listen to theirs. Hearing everyone out is the surest way to finding solutions that meet everyone’s needs — and then some. [Taurus glyph] []Taurus & Taurus Rising With Mercury in Libra, balance is the key to transforming the tedium of everyday details. Pencil-in breathing exercises before a big meeting. Place a picture of an exquisite nature scene on your desk. Recite poetry like prayers after a long-winded work call. Now that Mercury retrograde is behind us, it’s time to notice what systems worked, so you can file them away for future snafus (whether or not there’s a retrograde to blame them on). That means double-checking your calendar. Downloading the most recent version of that ungainly spreadsheet. Proofreading all emails before hitting “send”. The stressful song of your daily routine might not be drowned out entirely, but it can be harmonized through scheduled bursts of loveliness — and pre-emptive acts of damage control. [Gemini glyph] []Gemini & Gemini Rising When Mercury, the messenger, enters Libra on October 10th, your mind is attuned to seeking balance between your diverse flirtations, artistic endeavors, and passionate intrigues. How can so many fireworks light up only one sky? Multi-tasking may be a Gemini superpower, but it still helps to get organized. Arrange your calendar to give equal love to all your passion projects. Schedule time to paint while hanging out with a bestie, or garden while listening to a podcast. Read your favorite novel while simmering soup. You don’t have to choose one adventure, but seeking harmony between them all is key. [Cancer glyph] []Cancer & Cancer Rising When Mercury enters Libra again, after its recent retrograde, your thoughts draw back to matters of family and home. Take time to consider how other people’s interpretations of events danced or diverged with your own. Unlocking alternate perspectives assists you in clearing the road back to the present. With the planet of communication now direct, our exchanges with each other are bound to run clearer now. Consider re-opening the conversations that trailed off with family or people you live with. Mercury in Libra is a talented mediator, helping you parse dynamics between you and your near and dear. Whether the solution right now is to talk it out or give each other some space, Mercury in Libra brings the clear-headedness to make the right decision for you and everyone involved. [Leo glyph] []Leo & Leo Rising With Mercury in Libra, relating is your reason. Daily barista chats, reaching out to long-lost pals, breaking down the news with coworkers — say yes to it all. But don’t just hunt for an excuse to talk. Practice listening to what your conversation partners have to say. Reflect on what you learned about your ability to express your needs, and hear the needs of others, during the recent Mercury retrograde. What signals got crossed? How did you find your way back to mutual understanding? If your next comment is already on the tip of your tongue, pause and repeat the last thing you heard in your mind. Communication is a two-way street. Your ability to rest in pauses and practice receiving another’s words nourishes all your connections. Your own thoughts shine most brightly when cast in the reciprocal glow of another’s. [Virgo glyph] []Virgo & Virgo Rising Mercury in Libra pulls your thoughts toward accounting, allocating, divvying, and sorting. With the messenger retracing its steps after a three-week retrograde, you’re starting to understand your resources, and how to manage them, with greater clarity. Try out that expense tracking app. Consult a financial advisor. Open a bank account just for your savings. Yet remember that wealth goes beyond dollars and cents. It’s about investing in yourself: in your talents, potential, and future. If you’re excited about a potential path, or training, but an inner voice says it’s not “practical” — question that internalized naysayer. Take your dreams as seriously as paying the bills. [Libra glyph] []Libra & Libra Rising With Mercury in Libra, you’re naturally surfing the brainwaves that take you to the beach of your essential self, and the weather is gorgeous. Your thoughts are tilted toward the give-and-take of communicating with others — your specialty. If your nerves start to feel sensitive from these amplified signals, take a breath and return to center. With the messenger planet now picking up speed after its three-week retrograde, it’s a good time to get clear with others. Negotiate with a deft hand. Mediate between your friend’s agendas and the desires of your inner self. Balancing the needs of the still small voice within and the big loud voices without lets a third player into the mix: harmony. [Scorpio glyph] []Scorpio & Scorpio Rising Mercury in Libra asks you to assess whether you’ve been fair to the more irrational beings who prowl your inner landscape. The voices that cry out in dreams, silence, or periods of loneliness are as hungry for love as anyone. Tending to these wilder cries now may be a little easier than it was while Mercury was retrograde. Now that the messenger is moving forward and picking up speed, it’s high time to befriend your inner discontents. What’s grieving them? Don’t merely tolerate but woo the parts of yourself that feel the most tender. Romance the unknown. Write love poems to loneliness. Defang your inner critics with kindness. [Sagittarius glyph] []Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising Groups are playgrounds for multiple perspectives — and you’re more appreciative of that diversity than most. Mercury’s post-retrograde return to Libra on October 10th helps you honor and celebrate the connections, cerebral and social, that romp through your world. Bring flowers and candles to beautify the next workshop or fundraiser that you attend. If your friends are looking for love, matchmake. Consider where pals with different strengths could help each other achieve their goals. Planting seeds of sweetness in your communities now will feel more seamless than it has for a while. So will small-talk. Though you may prefer to go deep in conversation, there’s something to be said for encounters between strangers, joined by a common experience, like waiting at the bus stop. Connection is everywhere, if you open yourself to it. [Capricorn glyph] []Capricorn & Capricorn Rising Your reputation matters to you — you want to be known for doing the right thing. With Mercury back in Libra, this is an extra-blessed time for negotiations, team-building, or finally hearing out that grievance you’ve been avoiding. Put each side of every issue on the scales in your mind and trust in your ability to balance them. If Mercury’s recent retrograde brought delays related to communication or technology, try again now. Send that check-in email. Turn your printer back on and see if time miraculously solved the paper jam. Whatever systems you fine-tuned over the past few weeks, take stock of what worked well, and what you could improve for next time. Mercury in Libra helps you zero-in on where you can deal more deftly with the people and projects connected to your calling. [Aquarius glyph] []Aquarius & Aquarius Rising Mercury in Libra introduces you to the philosophies and spiritual teachings that have a way of putting everything into perspective. Now, and for the next few weeks, seek out strategies that emphasize peacefulness, highlight loveliness, or pursue interpersonal harmony. With the messenger in your place of long term goals, you might be reimagining your dreams for the future. Permit yourself this brainstorm phase. Browse apartments, or jobs, in other cities. Take that foreign language class. Look up flights, just for kicks. With Mercury now picking up speed after its three-week retrograde, the coast is clear to start committing to your grandest plans. [Pisces glyph] []Pisces & Pisces Rising When it comes to sharing resources with others, you have a knack for cultivating balance and fairness. Mercury in Libra emphasizes this measured give and take, helping you notice what verbal or non-verbal contracts need adjustment. That said, it’s likely that your collaborations, or bids for funding, grew a little hazy during Mercury’s recent retrograde. Notice what you have learned over the past few weeks about negotiation and expressing your needs directly. These skills will last you a lifetime. Your contracts with others can always benefit from a dose of clarity and directness, even if there’s no retrograde to add a spell of incoming fog.
