Libra Monthly Horoscope

All Change with the Next Generation

New babies or adoptions are in store for so many Sun Libra people of a certain age, in 2025 and 2026. July nods to the future. You now have Pluto moving through your zone of parenthood. This is also where we find your godchildren, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, stepchildren and so on. New babies are not a strict rule of this transit, but it is very common. January and February next year is a massive hint about this, as Ceres changes signs to this zone of your chart, and the Sun does too.

What is happening in your chart as you go into the mid 2020’s is also about your extended family (so, for example, your daughter’s godson). In fact, Jupiter in Cancer in your natal chart, from June 2025, is hinted at right now.

Back in 1968, Richard Sterling, Australia’s legendary astrologer, was talking about Jupiter as ‘the planet of good fortune, expansion and opportunity.’ The idea of all that is bigger and better is part of this cycle. As you read this I am in Richard’s old house in the Blue Mountains. He told it like it was.

What is a Christening if not a Pluto empowering moment? It can be symbolic, too, Libra. The ‘naming’ or honouring of someone or something so potent. An ancient ritual. For so many people born under your sign, that is where life is headed.

Sometimes on this Pluto in Aquarius cycle the issue is not a particular baby, child, infant or teenager – but the next generation as a whole. So, the issue for you may be the church choir, all of whom are yet to have their little voices break. It may be the infants you are kindly allowing to learn to swim in your pool. A teenage audience? Young adults in a queue to learn from you? What Pluto in your solar Fifth House does, is remind you that a particularly dynamic, influential, ‘charged’ person who appeared in your life, or reappeared with more importance, is not there by accident. He or she is here to show you what power actually means, with a younger generation. Or, perhaps, a baby or stepchild who may become yours.

Teaching and Guidance

It goes on. There is often a teaching role, a guidance position, or some kind of counselling or coaching on this Pluto cycle which restarts in such a major way in January and February. It may be spiritual, from your end. Perhaps – religious. It may be about faith, so embrace Buddhism. Philosophical slants on life, like environmentalism, could also be passed on. You not only have Pluto in Aquarius, but you also have Jupiter in Gemini. Double whammy.

Depending on your age you may be teaching people old enough to be your children – or engaging in public speaking, lectures, online forums and so on. It feels like a birth, and it is. And it’s very much in tune with what you believe. This has been the case, Libra, for some months now. It may be that you are already on this road.

Thus, there is more to the next generation, or the one after that, or the one after that – than just the wonder of it all. There is deeper and more serious purpose behind all this. Jupiter in Gemini in your solar Ninth House can be like that.

Spirituality and Beliefs

Debbi Kempton-Smith wrote this about Jupiter, in her book, Secrets from a Stargazer’s Notebook: “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” That’s the twenty-third Psalm. I miss Debbi.

There is a touch of that version of Jupiter in your chart this year, whatever you believe, as he transits the Ninth House of Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Christianity and all foreign matters. Kempton-Smith associated Jupiter with the word ‘WOW!’ And thought his motto was ‘Be big about it” and there is a really huge wow factor showing up in your 2024 chart, Libra.

If you have bypassed children, have no particular interest in your godchildren, nieces, nephews and the rest – this heavy new Aquarius cycle may affect you in other ways. There may be the ‘christening’ of a project aimed at children, teenagers or Millennials, for example.
