General
The year 2023, the year of the Rabbit, could be a complicated, but interesting year for Libra.
Collaboration, social network, flexibility and creativity are the conditions for professional, financial and spiritual growth in 2023.
Until March 7, 2023, Saturn in Aquarius is a period to complete projects of 2022, but also with the power of Jupiter in Aries until May 16, 2023, new projects can also begin. The temporary transit of Pluto in Aquarius from March 24 to June 11, 2023 brings Libra an unprecedented creative power and insight into desires of themselves and others.
The Year 2023 is a great year to make new finds and build the social and business network.
The Solar Eclipse in Libra of October 14, 2023 brings a great new opportunity at the end of 2023 and is a new and inspiring beginning for Libra.
This cosmic event will pave the way for an entirely new you in the next six months.
A total makeover, a new lifestyle. Libra is going through an inner and outer transformation in a way you never thought possible.
Love and Relationships
Saturn, Lord of Karma, will remain in Aquarius until March 7, 2023. This is Libra’s 5th House of Love. From March 2020 (the beginning of Saturn’s cooling and confining transit in Aquarius), Libra may have felt neglected or not given the attention they needed.
Romances and love affairs are difficult or have a sharp edge. When Saturn has left the sign of Aquarius at the beginning of March 2023, you know what love means to you and what love should be, you also know who your true friends are.
Libra will only focus on healthy, solid love relationships and friendships.
The Total Solar Eclipse in Aries of April 20, 2023 falls into the 7th House of Relationships.
In the next six months, Libra will gain more insight into itself, about the attitude towards others and adaptability, whether private or business. It indicates a new phase with the partner, entering or breaking a new business partnership or relationship. A period of shifting priorities in relationships to strengthen relationships, end a pregnancy or marriage, or an unhappy relationship. Something has already come to completion or something is coming to completion. Honesty and the truth are critical in breaking unhealthy relationship patterns. In any case, Libra is going to make a crucial decision in a relationship.
Who you work with now will have a major impact in the next six months until the end of 2023.
In the long run, this collaboration can even bring about a positive life change.
The great transformer Pluto temporarily resides in Aquarius in the 5th House of Love from March 24 to June 11, 2023. Pluto makes intense, passionate and involved in love and everything your heart desires. This plutonic foretaste through the Fifth House may already bring more passion this spring, but then there is also more power and control with those you love or finding yourself drawn to those in power.
Since the end of December 2022, the great Benefactor Jupiter has been traveling through Aries, the House of Relationships, and will remain there until May 16, 2023, making it easier to make contact and giving more opportunities for fruitful forms of cooperation. There are new friends, new agreements and partnerships and it is also easier to make compromises.
Uranus in Taurus will remain in the 8th House of Soul, Shared Resources and Intimacy throughout 2023. Uranus in the eighth House is about the experience of sexuality, experimentation and trust, but also uncertainty about intimacy and sexuality, but there are also ambiguities or unexpected events surrounding money, such as alimony, taxes, loans, insurance, and so on. Jupiter joins Uranus from May 17, 2023 and will remain there until the end of May 2024. The partnership of Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus changes and strengthens physical, mental, financial, emotional, and spiritual bonds. Mercury retrograde in Taurus from April 21 to May 14, 2023 can be the cause of control and trust issues. Therefore, clean your house in advance before Jupiter enters the sign of Taurus!
The partial Lunar Eclipse in Taurus of October 28, 2022 falls into your 8th House of Transformation and Soul Processes shows that Libra needs to transform on a deep level by letting go of attachments. Attachments and safeties may feel familiar, even old hurts, but letting go will set you free. A journey to the inner Self, but then you have to confront your shadow side. Due to an intense feeling experience, Libra will keep clearing the soul life such as breaking contacts with negative persons and situations, including limiting beliefs.

A spiritual and imaginative connection to the daily work where you can help others is therefore very important for Libra.
Preferably a job with not too many rules or where someone is constantly looking over your shoulder.
The transit of Saturn in Pisces from March 8, 2023 to February 14, 2026 falls in the 6th House of Work and Daily Routine. For Libra, it means a period of hard work for less money. Saturn is the cause of constant pressure to perform and more responsibility in terms of work, daily functions, habits and health, sometimes also feeling like you are bogged down in everyday life.
