Few things are sweeter than the satisfaction that comes from solving a mystery — and you could get the chance to experience this firsthand after action-oriented Mars enters tenacious Scorpio on Monday. As the warrior planet makes his way through the fixed water sign over the next six weeks, our need to uncover the truth could become unignorable, and we may feel driven to work behind the scenes to get the answers we need. Harness the intensity of this transit to tackle any problems that you’ve been avoiding with renewed focus and determination. 

Later on Monday, we’ll greet the fall equinox and the spirit-guiding sun will move into fair-minded Libra. This astrological season calls us to find more balance in our relationships and be extra considerate of the needs of other people in addition to our own. Take advantage of these next four weeks to socialize, collaborate and negotiate with an open heart. It’s a brilliant period to forge new connections and spend time with people who enrich your world. 

Then, as the ego-ruling sun in indecisive Libra opposes deceptive Neptune in strong-willed Aries on Wednesday, lowering your expectations could help protect you against disappointment. Things are often not as they seem under this influence, so you’ll also be wise to do your research and read the fine print to shield yourself from people who might try to take advantage of you. Get comfortable with saying no and seek to conserve your energy; this is a day best spent in solitude, listening to music or cosying up with a good book.  

Being smart about who you engage with could pay off big time later on Wednesday or early Thursday, depending on your time zone, when the vitality-giving sun in social Libra trines transformative Pluto in inventive Aquarius. Your faith in your ability to succeed will likely be at an all-time high under this influence, which could make it feel like no challenge is too daunting for you to conquer. Channel your efforts toward taking meetings or leading discussions that can help you reach your ultimate goals. You may even find that tapping into the supernatural level of confidence that this aspect provides allows you to win over the coldest of hearts. 

Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, September 22, 2025.
