As Libra, the sign associated with high art and law, encounters the karmic whirlpool of the South Node, its energy weakens. This transit brings marriage and partnerships to the forefront, as the 7th house in astrology represents marriage and divorce. However, it extends beyond just marriages, encompassing all types of contractual relationships. During this period, we can expect a breaking free from legal contracts as the scales of justice seek fairness and equality.
While the North Node strengthens the individualistic “Me” side of Aries, the South Node releases the collective “We” side of Libra. This dynamic shift prompts numerous changes in relationships, driven by the pursuit of justice. It opens up possibilities for exploring unconventional ways of relating that may eventually become widely accepted once the transit concludes in 2025.
Examples of these relationship changes include famous celebrity breakups, individuals altering their last names after marriage, the prevalence of prenuptial agreements, and custody matters. There may be a rise in the popularity of affordable and efficient divorce options, as anything associated with Libra tends to carry a higher price due to its ruling planet, Venus. Aries’ head-first energy encourages quick decisions to walk away from marriages and contractual relationships. Additionally, as the cost of living continues to rise in major cities, issues surrounding codependency versus independence will be addressed.
This period may give rise to new types of relationships, characterized by a focus on freedom and autonomy. Furthermore, there may be changes in terms and conditions, such as adjustments to landlord and tenant laws, potentially leading to the elimination of minimum one-year leases and the adoption of less commitment-based rules. Events promoting freedom and self-expression may also become more prevalent during this time. Ultimately, the energy shift will be from a collective “We” to a stronger emphasis on individuality and the “Me” energy.
