Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a period for serious focus as you prepare for the new season, much like a squirrel gathering nuts for winter. Instead of rushing, take time to plan ahead. While Mercury is now direct, it’s still regaining momentum after last month's retrograde, so patience is key. Pluto's return to Capricorn on September 1 signals a pivotal moment for your career, urging you to revisit important lessons about power, authority, and charisma that you’ve been integrating over the past 14 years. This phase is about closing old chapters and recalibrating your purpose, recognizing the influence you have not only on your life but on the world around you.

The lunar eclipse on September 17 brings dramatic changes to your work environment. You may be called into new levels of responsibility or need to pick up the slack for someone else who’s on leave. Regardless of the circumstances, know that you are ready for the shifts happening in your daily life and embrace them with joy. After a whirlwind few months, you’ll feel a wonderful sense of being back in your routine, ready to adjust to the new season. Take advantage of the Virgo sun to get organized—clear out the clutter and make space for all the new growth soon to enter your life.

The sun shines in your relationship sector after September 22, illuminating the potential for this area of your life. As Mercury enters Libra on September 26, it could help clarify issues you may have had in previous or current partnerships.

Trust in divine timing.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

The creative life calls to you this month, Taurus, as Venus highlights your inner artist. Even if you don’t identify as an artist, remember that creativity flows through you naturally. The Virgo sun illuminates your desire for self-expression, putting you in a go-getter mood. With Uranus stationing retrograde and Pluto moving back into Capricorn, you're reminded of the power in trusting and letting go of control.

The lunar eclipse on September 17 reinforces this theme as Pluto concludes its 14-year journey through the sign of ambition. Now is the time to devise practical strategies for pursuing your dreams.

The equinox on September 22 marks a balance between light and dark, making it an ideal time to center yourself amid life’s transitions. As the sun enters Libra, a cardinal sign, you're encouraged to take action and initiate steps toward your goals. For instance, if optimal health is a goal, start with small, consistent changes, like adding 20 minutes more of daily activity. These small steps accumulate over time.

When Venus enters Scorpio on September 22, relationships take center stage. This is a time to understand your value in relationships, possibly pursue romance, or redefine the way you connect with others. Venus in your opposite sign asks you to approach romantic relationships with curiosity rather than insist on definite answers. If you have been uncertain about aspects of your relationship, try to relax and enjoy the moment. Practice gratitude and have an appreciation for the positive aspects of the relationship. The stellar influences at the beginning of the month spark a desire for romance, which could be favorable for a budding relationship. 

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

The Virgo sun shines on your home life this month, making it an excellent time to visit family and nurture your closest connections. You're also highly motivated in your career, and with Uranus stationing retrograde on September 1 and Pluto moving back into Capricorn, trust becomes a significant theme, especially in relationships.

Financial pressures can strain partnerships, and you've faced your share of these challenges, almost like you've been in a spiritual graduate program since Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008. As Pluto nears the end of its journey through this sign, take a moment to appreciate your growth in understanding love, partnership, and mutual support.

When the sun enters Libra on September 22, it lights up your romantic life, inviting you to fully experience the joys of love. Let go of fears or limiting beliefs and simply enjoy being in love.

In love, Venus enters passionate Scorpio on September 22, bringing opportunities for deepening your bond with your partner. Keep your heart open and allow yourself to be surprised by the magic of the moment.

Leo (July 23-August 22)

Last month’s astrology reminded you of something you already know: you look great in the spotlight! With the sun as your ruling planet, you were born to share your gifts and expressing yourself fully. Your boldness has the power to inspire those around you. But just because you’re drawn to living authentically doesn’t mean you’re always comfortable with the reactions that come with it. You might find yourself dimming your light in response to criticism or chatter, but that only makes it harder for you to see your own path. When you feel stuck, remember that transmuting fear into courage is your superpower. This month offers plenty of opportunities to move in that direction.

To live in alignment, you need support from the practical aspects of your life. The new moon in Virgo on September 2 puts financial matters front and center, encouraging you to invest in yourself. New moons are all about fresh starts, and this one could be just what you need to take the next step. The powerful lunar eclipse on September 17 signals a big shift in your mindset. If you’ve been unsure about your own success, now’s the time to reassess where you’re putting your time, energy, and money so they better reflect the quality of work you’re capable of, especially with the right support.

When the sun moves into Libra on September 22, balance becomes the theme. As much as you might want to pour your heart into your relationships, now is the time to direct that love inward.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)

For the past 14 years, you've been on a journey of reconciling how opposing truths can coexist. With Pluto retrograding into Capricorn on September 1, this transformative cycle is entering its final phase. You've navigated a master class in philosophy, often stretching your worldview in challenging ways. Now, as you reach the culmination of your spiritual evolution, it’s time for a revival of faith. The key to your next chapter lies in connecting your mind and body, and in trusting the wisdom that comes not just from external teachers, but from your own heart.

The new moon in Virgo on September 2 offers you a fresh start—a clean slate. As this new chapter begins, you may need to tune out the naysayers or quiet your inner critic, especially as Mars challenges Neptune. Picture a blank page in a journal: what will you write on it? Reflect on the continuity in your life and use the inner resources you've cultivated to welcome the changes ahead, even if they seem unpredictable. Remember, change is already in motion—embrace it fully.

The lunar eclipse on September 17 is a catalyst for change in your partnerships, urging you to accept support and kindness. As a Virgo, you're known for your acts of service, but now it's time to allow yourself to be on the receiving end of care.

When the sun enters Libra on September 22, and Venus moves into Scorpio, you'll need to strike a balance in your finances and communication. You'll face choices about standing your ground or yielding for peace—make decisions that align with your higher goals and values.

Libra (September 23-October 22)

Of all the signs, yours has faced more hurdles and tests than any other this year. With the South Node in your sign, you’ve learned important lessons in decision-making. This year has taught you to be bold, even when it means ruffling feathers. You've also come to understand the power of your intentions and how they shape the world around you.

In September, the lessons become less defined, focusing on maintaining your authority amid challenges. The eclipse on September 17 kicks off a two-week period of unexpected twists and turns, bringing significant changes and adventures your way.

During this time, you'll have the opportunity to practice compassion, strengthen your boundaries, and be discerning with your time, energy, and spending. Consider it a time for editing your life—whether that’s your wardrobe, schedule, or daily routine. Clear space for the new beginnings that are manifesting as your new solar year approaches.

Pluto’s re-entry into Capricorn on September 1 signals the final stages of reconstruction in your home life. Since 2008, you’ve redefined what family means to you. Maybe your chosen family has supported you in ways your biological family couldn’t, or perhaps you’ve gained deeper insights into your family of origin. This period has also emphasized the importance of ancestral healing and moral repair within your family line.

As you close this chapter, you’re ready to move into a new phase of enjoying the people you love most. The sun enters your sign at the equinox on September 22—a powerful day to embrace your role in the spotlight. This astrology asks you to step into your new sense of mission and purpose as Libra season begins.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

Scorpios are known for their grit and determination, but that strength can sometimes make it hard to trust others to match your level of dedication. You may struggle with delegating tasks, preferring to take control rather than risk others not meeting your high standards. However, this month’s astrology encourages you to rethink your approach. Under the Virgo sun, tap into your persuasive skills to inspire others to join you in your projects, whether at work or home. Remember, you’re not alone, and the universe is urging you to share the load.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

Helen Keller said, "Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all." How this phrase captures your essence! As someone who thrives on exploration, new experiences, and grand adventures, routine can feel stifling. If life has started to feel a bit too predictable, it might be time to shake things up.
