This is another transformative month, Cancer, when things are changing both within you, and without. On the heels of an intense series of summer months, there remain confronting indications. An enhanced interior presence of Trickster Uranus this September enhances your increased focus on communicative outreach with almost magical powers of intuition, so that information arrives at your mental doorstep in many ways. Your career revamp continues as well with new wrinkles that convey that it is not so much what consensus thought has to teach you, but rather what you can derive from strictly your own inner process. And yet that is enough. This is borne out even further after September’s first week by the Lunar Eclipse and Pisces Full Moon in your Higher Mind sector. Your sense of who you are at the deeper layers of your being is advanced by what you know in your heart of hearts that you unflinchingly believe. The New Moon eclipse of the 21st and Libra Equinox the next day also signal an important turning point. Home and family concerns become the focus, in opposition to the exigencies of your career and profession, while also somewhat in collusion with that significant part of life. In both areas it is becoming more and more evident that your bedrock beliefs are your guiding principles, the values that only you can fully understand and to which you can entirely commit.

The recent Virgo New Moon from the last week of August has set the tone for September, bringing your focus to your third sector of connection and communication. This Virgo lunation cycle runs for thirty days, or through the first three weeks of September, bringing your focus to your communicative outreach, comprehension and intellect, language, skillsets, and your thought process in general. The recent New Moon features a powerful yod, or “Finger of God” aspect, focused on the Sun and Moon, so that your thoughts are sizzling and vibrant, and could become the basis of a new outlook on your life, or renewed understanding of where your career or a relationship might be taking you. The yod pattern was underpinned by Pluto in Aquarius or your intimacy sector, plus the tight ongoing conjunction of Saturn and Neptune in Aries, which corresponds to your vocational sector. There is an additional quite powerful square from the New Moon to Uranus in Gemini, your sector of unconscious process, isolation, and inner work, which adds another dimension to consider. With Uranus highlighted there, your intuition is very strong right now, and you could find new areas to study, inwardly, reflecting what is going on with you behind the scenes. Unexpectedly, logic alone is not your only source of information in this September timing, and perhaps not even the most important one. Your transformative process leading to your next evolutionary stage that has been in the works all summer continues, and learning, teaching and relating could be part of that, with an emphasis on intimacy with existing or potential partnerships.

On Monday, September 1st, your relationship sector ruler Saturn re-enters watery Pisces and your ninth sector of knowledge, wisdom and higher mind, signaling a shift in your perception of intimate unions, what you’ve come to know and understand about dealing with important others in your life, perhaps involving your beliefs and worldview.

On the 2nd, communication planet Mercury enters Virgo, there to be co-present with the Sun. At this moment, Mercury is square Uranus and in aspect to nebulous Neptune and transformational Pluto, so that your thoughts, while somewhat scattered, are also powerful. There could be surprise revelations that come to you suddenly, or a glimpse of life changes that are underway with you at deeper layers of your psyche.

Also on the 2nd, Jupiter in your first or identity sector is simultaneously trine the North Node, indicating that you could be feeling optimistic and expansive about your recent learning curve or travel/educational plans. You could find that you are becoming more conscious regarding your connections, ideas, and cognizance, or also perhaps coming into alignment with those who are like-minded, and this can enhance your own adventure of truth, experience, and understanding.

On the 4th, your vocational planet Mars, now in Libra and your fourth sector of home, roots and family, squares Jupiter. This could present a momentary distraction from your journey of growth and personal expansion, so you may want to pay attention to life behind closed doors, or factors that warrant your attention in household settings.

Uranus stations retrograde on the 6th, amplifying the impact of this planet and perhaps bringing surprise revelations around internal work or recovery from inner wounding. During its station, standing dead-still for the moment in the sky, Uranus is trine Pluto, and sextile Neptune. This is a volatile configuration presaging further transformation and spiritual realizations, or perhaps as well illusion or deception, with Neptune so fully involved. The potential is there for over-idealization, or ongoing confusion, and it could be worth pausing to reflect on the way you may withdraw and mend inwardly, along with outer world commitments that you also must honor.

On the 7th, the Full Moon, which is a total lunar eclipse in Pisces, illuminates your visionary sector of truth-seeking, wanderlust, and long-distance quests. This constitutes an important evolution and expansion of your mind and spirit which could be revelatory – you could feel that the special attitudes and understanding that are uniquely your own are amplified. Your personal development and life philosophy are potentially featured, along with your social setting, to include friendships, groups you favor, and life goals you feel yourself to be aligned with. This might be a time to soak up opportunities to broaden your perspective even further.

During the Last Quarter Moon in Gemini of the 14th, Mercury conjuncts the Sun in Virgo, your sector of communication and learning. With the Gemini Moon, the luminaries both answer to Mercury. This may be fortuitous and bring about a shift in your awareness of certain issues that have been festering. A retreat within – or moment to catch your breath – might appeal, and there could additionally be a call to get more involved with the people around you, interacting at something of a deeper level as you do so.

On the 15th, Venus in Leo and your second sector of earnings, confidence, values and income is sextile Mars, in your fourth sector of home and family. Improving what you can do at home or in your space could be important.

On September 17th, Mercury opposes Saturn, potentially bringing attention to neighbors, close contacts, or dealings in your local area, yet perhaps also imposing a pause in conversation, or a back and forth. There may be ideas that you’re considering, yet a call for authority and expertise could stop talks in their tracks.

Then on the 18th, Mercury enters Libra, arriving opposite Neptune, and in the days that follow trines Uranus and Pluto forming a grand air trine, to be repeated at Fall Equinox, when the Sun enters Libra. This could find you broaching your domestic life or family, with a sense of the contracts, binding ties or alliances you have, and an awakening hidden from view, and also your outward title or career. How you present yourself publicly could seem confusing or mysterious, given the nebulous quality of Neptune, and perhaps what you're expected to do or give to maintain a secure base could be unclear.

On the 19th, Venus enters Virgo, creating the same yod aspect with Pluto and Neptune, as Mercury on the 2nd, and the New Moon of August, again with a square to Uranus. Friends in your community could draw closer, so that it’s easier dealing with people in your environment, navigating those around you, or the plans and topics that link you together.

On the 21st, the second Virgo New Moon lands at the last degree of the sign, which is also a partial solar eclipse – so a powerful lunation. The Sun and Moon oppose Saturn, implying that limits or obstacles you may encounter at this timing, and your consciousness of their effect on your life, become important. The Sun and Moon are also in a grand trine, though out of sign, with Uranus in Gemini or your sector of the unconscious, and Pluto in Aquarius which corresponds to your sector of intimacy and partnership agreements. You are truly digging into your psychological depths with this eclipse, and the effects may last for months. This could reset your interests and mindset, and shift your approach to writing projects, messages, engagement and how you cultivate rapport and undergo personal evolution. You win when you can sweep away outdated ways of thinking, becoming more aware of the discipline and hard work you must continue to put in, if you want to truly master your perspective shifts and a renewed outlook. Your roots, lineage, household set-up and nurturing tendencies could inform this fresh start, with the New Moon’s governing planetary body – Mercury – lodged nearby in your familial fourth house. You might consider from whence your ideas ultimately stem, where you’re going in this incarnation, and why, to the extent that you can understand that most profound question.

On the 22nd, Mars enters Scorpio and your fifth house of self-expression, and this may be a strong, exciting time for you, creatively or sexually. The weeks that follow could see you having an enjoyable time, whether through dating, indulging in playful pursuits or just having fun with children or potential romantic partners. Pleasure and gratification could be a hot topic, although there is also to consider the square to Pluto during this Mars ingress which may add transformational pressure, perhaps as you consider future goals, or promises made.

The Libra Equinox arrives on this day too, as Sun enters Libra arriving there opposite Neptune, and forming another grand trine in Air with Uranus and Pluto. This brings the spotlight to security and your sense of place, with home arrangements emphasized. You could find yourself very focused on your dwelling space, intimacy, sacred bonds, and commitments. Meanwhile, your vocation, external image and accomplishments are in this picture too, and play into the part you’re guided to inhabit at home.

This is yet another intensely consequential month for you, Libra, just when you thought it must be getting better. The outer planets are closely aligned with each other, and with the luminaries in the recent Virgo New Moon at 0° of the sign, so that you face inevitable conundrums and powerfully transformational currents that don’t let up at all throughout, from start to finish. Your twelfth house sector of dream imagination, unconscious process, and inner work is one major focus, with partnerships in your life another. In each case the good news is that there is quite a lot of growth going on, in between the confrontations and near-breakdowns. Because your intense internal process is so involved, it could be better to leave logic and rationality in reserve and let your intuition be your guide. It could be a good time as well to jot down what your dreams may be telling you, as you can discern this, perhaps leaving a journal and pencil near your bedtime table to record them as you wake. There are revelations to be had in plenty, as you have already likely been discovering through these difficult and illuminating summer months. Your beliefs and worldview are likely to be massively shifting, and your creative self-expression is in transition as a result. Personal and business relationships are calling for a new level of commitment, and one that is based more fully on spiritual realities in complement to the practical. Then too, your values, that are your bedrock in all of this, must, as you are perhaps also discovering, be based on your own internal principles to the exclusion of all else.

As you enter September in the wake of the recent Virgo New Moon from last month, your focus is directed to your twelfth sector of unconscious, dream imagination, and inner work. This lunation cycle, that began with the Virgo New Moon at 0° of the sign, runs for thirty days, through the first three weeks of September. This was an extremely powerful configuration, featuring a powerful yod, or “Finger of God” aspect, focused on the Sun and Moon. Your potential new outlook on restorative practices, or a quiet rebirth is also impacted by your current relationship focus, and as well your ongoing transformative process for your sense of creativity, passion and self-expression. The yod pattern having been underpinned by Pluto in Aquarius or your sector of inspiration and artistic output, and as well the tight ongoing conjunction of Saturn and Neptune in Aries, which corresponds to partnership with both platonic and romantic partners, creates a tumultuous month ahead which could result in a degree of escapism. Your ruler, Venus, aspects Chiron and Eris in your relationship sector a harbinger of dealing with old wounding in this area. There is additionally a quite powerful square from the New Moon to Uranus in Gemini, your sector of higher mind, which adds another dimension to consider, bringing further surprising revelations to your evolving beliefs and worldview.

On Monday, September 1st, Saturn, ruler of your foundational, home and family sector, re-enters in retrograde watery Pisces and your sixth sector of health, work settings, habits and routines. Saturn remains in close conjunction with Neptune, ruler of Pisces, emphasizing this shift in your day-to-day life and habitual schedule while your partnerships also continue to be impacted.

On the 2nd, communication planet Mercury enters Virgo, there to be co-present with the Sun. At this moment, Mercury is square Uranus and in aspect to Neptune and transformational Pluto, so that a sense of disconnection, retreat, recovery and catharsis is perhaps enlightening. There could be surprise revelations from an outside source that imparts unique knowledge, or a different opinion, that's to be digested.

Also on the 2nd, Jupiter in Cancer or your vocational sector is simultaneously trine the North Node, indicating that you could appear prominent and successful, with a retreat that allows you to process and pull back, so that you’re seen outwardly thriving, while also coming into alignment with your own unconscious and deep intuition. A major renewal could be underway that compliments your public persona or career setting, which also could serve to remind you how far you’ve come as far as developing a system or way of life that amplifies your wellbeing.

On the 4th, your relationship sector ruler Mars, still in your sign, squares Jupiter. This could present a momentary distraction from your career or vocational growth, so you may want to pay attention to the ways you’re carving out your identity, making an impression on others, reconciling this with your successes and accomplishments.

Uranus stations retrograde on the 6th, amplifying the impact of this planet and perhaps brings surprise perspectives around your beliefs, cultural outlook or adventures. During its station, standing dead-still for the moment in the sky, Uranus is trine Pluto, and sextile Neptune. It could be worth pausing to reflect on your life philosophy and moral avenues, along with significant relationships that you also must honor.

On the 7th, the Pisces Full Moon, which is a total lunar eclipse, illuminates your sector of health, wellness, and workplace settings. This powerful lunation might represent an important evolution of your habitual practices and you could feel a distinct shift in this area. Those daily routines and rituals or methodologies that are working for you might be enhanced while others where you are just going through the motions might be sloughing away. This occurs in the context of more fully exploring your own inner world, and what makes the most ultimate sense from that standpoint, and for your long-term goals and social connection.

During the Last Quarter Moon in Gemini on the 14th, Mercury conjuncts the Sun in Virgo, your sector of unconscious dreams and relinquished control. With the Gemini Moon, the luminaries both answer to Mercury. This may bring about a shift in your awareness of global issues, truths, world events or projects that are published broadly. A leap of faith might appeal, and there could additionally be a call to go deeper into acceptance, confidential matters, or a private process underway.

On the 15th, your ruling planet Venus in Leo and your eleventh sector is sextile Mars, in your sign which is perhaps favorable for your popularity in a crowd of friends, with all eyes on you!

On September 17th, Mercury opposes Saturn, potentially bringing attention to inner work you’re undertaking, yet perhaps also imposing a break or moment to pause. There may be a chance for respite or escapism before you, yet also a call to labour over tasks, or stick to errands and your duties.

Then on the 18th, Mercury enters your sign, arriving opposite Neptune, and in the days that follow trines Uranus and Pluto forming a grand air trine, to be repeated at Fall Equinox, when the Sun follows suit. This could find you broaching your life philosophy or long-distance travels, talking more about plans, hobbies, or fun celebrations you might experience, and also other people that factor into your discoveries or paths of exploration. How you partner could seem confusing or elusive, given the nebulous quality of Neptune, and perhaps the friendly side you show the world to maintain a connection could be unclear.

On the 19th, Venus enters Virgo, creating the same yod aspect with Pluto and Neptune, as Mercury on the 2nd, and the New Moon of August, again with a square to Uranus. Taking yourself offline to undergo introspective inner work could be a possibility, deep diving and embracing private methods for healing, with potential surprises or novel outside opinions impacting your retreat.

On the 21st, the second Virgo New Moon lands at the last degree of the sign, which is also a partial solar eclipse and therefore yet another powerful lunation, right on the edge f your sign and thus affecting your sense of your evolving identity. You might find yourself asking the question of who you really are, now, today, amidst the swirling energies of these volatile astrological energies. The Sun and Moon oppose Saturn, implying formal agendas, duties, or perhaps certain partnership factors, could be seen as limitations to inner work you are in the midst of, or the freedom of expression that you seek.

The Sun and Moon are also in a grand trine, although out of sign, with Uranus in Gemini, or your sector of wisdom and knowledge, and with Pluto in Aquarius which corresponds to your sector of sexuality, fertility, children, and creative expression. You might shift your approach to a purging process, endings, or undertakings behind the scenes that see you making sacrifices – perhaps for your children, a loved one, with a higher purpose or newly awakened faith. You win when you let go, fully surrendering, becoming more aware of the discipline and hard work you must continue to put in as a daily practice, mastering your health or sense of service. With Mercury, the New Moon’s ruling planet, in your sign, your own inspired ideas could inform this fresh start,.

On the 22nd, Mars enters Scorpio and your second house of values, resources, including financial ones, and self-worth. This may be a good time to direct attention toward your assets, position, and input. The weeks that follow could see you enjoying your role and material life, whether you’re stocktaking, building, or making a living, all which can affirm you with confidence. Worthwhile work, rewards and compensation could be a hot topic, although there is also to consider the square to Pluto during this Mars ingress, which may add transformational pressure thanks to your desire for down time, play, romance or time with your kids, and as you consider partnerships, and what you really want.

The Libra Equinox arrives on this day too, as Sun enters your sign arriving there opposite Neptune, and forming another grand trine in Air with Uranus and Pluto. This brings the spotlight to your way for your birthday month. You could find you’re very focused on your personal life, passions, creativity, and desires. Meanwhile, your relationships are in this picture too, and play into experiences you’re having as an individual.

This is another rather intense month for you, Capricorn. The stars presage further difficult events to traverse with also however further intentional awareness rising up within you from both logical/rational and intuitive deeply mystical sources. It’s all educational when you can stay open to what the universe is attempting to show you. Your vocational life is involved this month as well, absolutely altered by these incipient changes taking place at the very core of your being. Even though Pluto has finally utterly abandoned your sign for Aquarius, you are still in flux and metamorphosis, with your resources and values shifting in novel ways; your finances are overturned by changes, including perhaps your fundamental attitude to the material world itself. You are mingling the transpersonal and other-dimensionality of Neptune with the 3D physical world as represented by your ruler Saturn. The extremely tight conjunction of these two significant power planets going into its fifth full month now, with no letup in sight, so that you may well be having the feeling that something has got to give. In the end, this could result in your becoming more open to the numinous magic that surrounds you, and to responding to strictly your own internal principles and values as you can come to these. The Full Moon and lunar eclipse of the 7th brings much of this to a head, as you move ever further into transformation and possibility.

On the 4th, your residential planet Mars, now in Libra and your tenth sector of career and public image, squares Jupiter.

Uranus stations retrograde on the 6th, amplifying the impact of this planet and perhaps brings surprise revelations around health, wellness or work settings.

You could find yourself bent on working out your ambitions, career and reputation, perhaps with an alliance or commitment that enables you to be prominent in your role. Meanwhile, your home, family and inner life play into the dedication that guides you to success.

This is another transformational month for you, Aquarius. The beat goes on; there has been a metamorphosis going on within you – and with your persona that you present to the world – ever since Pluto has moved into your sign to stay. These past few months have however significantly upped the ante because Pluto has drifted back to the 1° mark of your sign as first Neptune and Saturn, and then Uranus, have aligned themselves with this same position. That 1-degree mark is exactly where Uranus and Neptune now align from their places two or four signs away. The planetary configurations ever since June have been powerfully active for you, and this most recent Virgo New Moon even more so. With Jupiter aspecting the Sun and Moon, there are new patternings of social interaction and dreams for the future. The net effect is that not only your identity, but also communications and learning – plus your creative self-expression – have really been lighting up. Your articulations may have grown progressively more mystically derived, while novel ideas spark energy that is unstable, erratic, and full of beneficial surprises. Unexpected events with your projects or your romantic entanglements are becoming the norm. The Full Moon and lunar eclipse of September 7th is also a strong lunation, a balancing act of self and other, with partnership in fuller focus. Then, as well, on the 21st the second Virgo New Moon of this September month also sparks these same energies, along similar lines, with an even longer lasting impact.

As you enter September the recent Virgo New Moon brings your focus to your eighth sector of intimacy, vulnerabilities, and jointly held resources. This Virgo lunation cycle that began in the last week of August runs for thirty days, or through the first three weeks of September, setting the tone to address important partnerships in your life, together with their stated or unstated agreements. The recent New Moon features a powerful yod, or “Finger of God” aspect, focused on the Sun and Moon, so a new outlook on your fears, dependencies and commitments are also impacted by your evolving communication style, and transforming sense of identity, presence and character. The yod pattern was underpinned by Pluto in your sign, plus the tight ongoing conjunction of Saturn and Neptune in Aries, which corresponds to your mindset, thought process, siblings and close connections. There is an additional square from the New Moon to Uranus in Gemini, your sector of love, sex, hobbies and cherished interests, which adds another dimension to consider, as your passions, inspiration, and heart's desires play into your new beginning, which centers on your obligations and commitments.

On the 2nd, communication planet Mercury enters Virgo, there to be co-present with the Sun. At this moment, Mercury is square Uranus and in aspect to Neptune and Pluto, so that intimate discussions about what’s combined, on loan, promised or invested could be intense, but also accommodating around what you want, which could be changing.

Also on the 2nd, Jupiter in Cancer and your sixth sector is simultaneously trine the North Node, indicating that you could be leaning into everyday routines, and growth in employment settings, with a conscious approach to your health and commitments, obligations, and what you contribute or manage. You’re perhaps coming into alignment with others, aware of what’s promised, shared, what’s on loan or jointly held, which can in turn enhance your awareness of your part, and how you might maintain a duty of care over yourself, your body, and what you have in a material sense.

On the 4th, your communication planet Mars, now in Libra and your ninth sector of higher mind, squares Jupiter. This could momentarily distract you from your general upkeep, a job, or positive practices that enhance your wellbeing, with another outlook introduced, so you may want to consider other opinions or perspectives, while sustaining your daily errands and schedule.

Uranus stations retrograde on the 6th, amplifying the impact of this planet and perhaps brings surprise revelations around love, sex, your passions, hobbies or cherished interests. During its station, standing dead-still for the moment in the sky, Uranus is trine Pluto, and sextile Neptune. It could be worth pausing to reflect on exciting plans and your resilience, along with a way of thinking or connecting that you also must honor.

On the 7th, the Full Moon, which is a total lunar eclipse in Pisces, illuminates issues of self and other, along with your role, finances and the way you make a living. This constitutes an important expansion of your core values, which could be revelatory, and you could feel that your lifestyle, habits, wellness practices and healthy living are featured, along with what you deem to be worthwhile.

Your assets could be more clear for all to see!

Then on the 18th, Mercury enters Libra, arriving opposite Neptune, and in the days that follow trines Uranus and Pluto forming a grand air trine, to be repeated at Fall Equinox, when the Sun enters Libra. Your happiness, special projects, talents, creativity, and love life could be showcased on a global platform, with a sense of pleasure derived, as you move through the world with something to say. You might note that general conversations or navigating could seem confusing, given the nebulous quality of Neptune, and perhaps another way of seeing the world could be unclear.

On the 19th, Venus enters Virgo, creating the same yod aspect with Pluto and Neptune, as Mercury on the 2nd, and the New Moon of August, again with a square to Uranus.

On the 21st, the second Virgo New Moon lands at the last degree of the sign, which is also a partial solar eclipse and another powerful lunation.

This could reset your approach to working with others, as you acknowledge the practical input of a partner, welcoming a committed fresh start, also being realistic in your expectations of what a collaborator is able to give or come together on. Your material possessions, desires and input can be apparent too. A path of wisdom, adventure, or faith could inform this fresh start, with Mercury, ruler of this New Moon, nearby in your ninth house of philosophy, publishing, and knowledge, so you might consider what you want from your beliefs and worldview, trusting you can take a chance on others, and explore further.

On the 22nd, Mars enters Scorpio and your tenth house of career and vocation, and this may be a strong, exciting time for your professional advancement, or the pursuit of success that’s outwardly visible. The weeks that follow could see you thriving in publicly, leading – or meeting an ambition, praise or accolade. Your public image could be a hot topic, although there is also to consider the square to Pluto during this Mars ingress, which may add transformational pressure, perhaps as you consider your personal evolution, true identity, and what you represent and embody.

The Libra Equinox arrives on this day too, as Sun enters Libra arriving there opposite Neptune, and forming another grand trine in Air with Uranus and Pluto. This brings the spotlight to long-distance connections, with people further afield emphasized. You could find yourself very focused on those that are from somewhere different, and might flirt with destiny, opening your heart to someone unique, culturally, or philosophically outside of what’s known. Meanwhile, your ideas could play into a foreign point of view, with an openness to dissipating your own opinions in favor of another lens.
