September 1 — Uranus goes retrograde in Taurus and Pluto retrograde enters Capricorn

Key Area: Finances & Career
This double retrograde brings a shake-up in money matters and career paths, urging a reevaluation of long-term stability and power dynamics. Disruptions might come out of the blue, but they’re pushing you to rethink outdated approaches.

  • Revisit Financial Plans: Look closely at investments, savings, or big purchases. If your budget’s feeling tight, cut back on non-essentials now. Keep an eye on tech investments; Uranus in Taurus is all about unpredictable gains and losses here.
  • Restructure at Work: Don’t resist changes in your job—adapt to new roles or responsibilities that could set you up for better leadership positions down the line. Seek constructive criticism to revamp your strategy.
  • Audit Your Resources: Inventory your skills, contacts, and tools. Are you making the most of what you have? Reallocate time and energy where they can be most effective.

September 2 — New Moon in Virgo and Mars in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces

Key Area: Personal Growth & Communication

  • Area of Importance: New Moons want us to be precise – but the chaotic Mars square Neptune makes it difficult, as it brings confusion and misdirection. It’s a fantastic time for placing new beginnings in personal growth and improvement, but it’s just as great a time for arguments and mistaken choices. Aim for clear and practical objectives. 
  • Energy: Neat and tidy. Virgo’s a brilliant energy for organizing, so make sure your New Moon objectives are written down in a checklist. Look at your daily regular and write down anything you like to change in your health program, work pattern, or personal growth. Put it somewhere you will see it every day and work on a little every day.
  • Watch out for: Trying to make everything perfect. This isn’t going to work – but making a bit of progress will. Consciousness: Don’t forget to think before you talk.
  • Mars square Neptune is doubtful, and misunderstandings are feasible. Neptune allows foggy and directed energy to be channeled into imagination. If you’re not sure what to set yourself, why not do something creative? Does imaginative process help you? Are you getting a lucid guide from your spiritual or subconscious part?

September 4 — Mars enters Cancer

Key Area: Home & Emotional Well-being
Mars in Cancer shifts the focus to home life and emotional boundaries, stirring up protective instincts but also triggering mood swings. You might feel extra sensitive or defensive, especially about family matters.

  • Channel Energy into Home Projects: Use this drive to tackle home improvements or declutter your space. It’s a great time for DIY projects that bring comfort and security to your environment. Small changes can have a big impact on your mood.
  • Set Boundaries with Loved Ones: Emotional flare-ups are likely, so be clear about what you need without getting overly defensive. If family tensions arise, take a step back instead of reacting impulsively—cool off before responding.
  • Prioritize Self-care Routines: Mars can stir anxiety in Cancer, so establish routines that calm your mind—think long baths, cooking comfort meals, or a new exercise habit. Balance your emotional energy by caring for yourself first.

September 6 — Mercury in Leo square Uranus in Taurus

Key Area: Communication & Decision Making
Mercury squaring Uranus spells sudden shifts in thinking and surprise news. Conversations can go off-script quickly, making it tough to stay grounded. Watch out for erratic thoughts or tech glitches that throw plans into chaos.

  • Stay Open to Unexpected Ideas: This energy shakes up conventional thinking. If a brainstorming session feels all over the place, that’s okay—note down the wildest ideas; they might hold a gem worth exploring later.
  • Be Cautious with Commitments: Don't make any impulsive promises. Keep communication concise and double-check details to avoid misinterpretations. If someone throws a curveball, give yourself time to respond.
  • Brace for Tech Issues: Anticipate disruptions with your devices—back up important files, double-check emails, and don’t panic if things go haywire. This is just a temporary blip, not a meltdown.

September 7 — Sun in Virgo opposition Saturn in Pisces

Career & Responsibilities

  • The Sun in Virgo is in conflict with dreamy Saturn in Pisces, urging you to quickly balance work and dreams. You may feel either overburdened by your commitments or stifled in your aspirations. In any case, you are being challenged to do things differently by exercising discipline.
  • Accept Delays with Grace: If your projects are put on hold or appear too much, consider how you could approach them in a more disciplined manner. Don’t try to tackle a project in a single step—rather, break it into manageable pieces. Saturn enforces discipline, but it does not allow shortcuts.
  • Get Support from Your Mentors: Reach out to anyone who has been here before if you are stuck. An expert critic will assist you in regaining perspective. Do not be hesitant to seek assistance.
  • Bolster Your Work-Rest Balance: This alignment has the potential to drain you, but be advised to do your best to stay active, maintaining a good employment-rest balance. Prioritize rest, hydration, and relaxation because you are not spending more time. When you are depleted, you will not be able to work most productively.

September 8 — Pallas enters Sagittarius and Mercury enters Virgo

Key Area: Learning & Strategy
Pallas in Sagittarius sparks a thirst for knowledge and broad-minded strategies, while Mercury in Virgo sharpens focus and attention to detail. This is a blend of big-picture thinking with meticulous planning—a perfect combo for learning, travel, and strategic decision-making.

  • Explore New Learning Opportunities: Dive into a new course, book, or area of study that expands your worldview. Whether it’s something professional or just for fun, let curiosity lead the way.
  • Create a Strategic Plan: Use Mercury’s analytical boost to organize your ideas. Pallas encourages bold moves, but balance this with careful planning. Outline your next steps in a project or goal—think big, but keep it practical.
  • Speak Your Truth with Clarity: With Mercury in its home sign, communication is clear and precise. Now’s a great time to pitch ideas, hold important discussions, or clarify misunderstandings. Just keep it grounded and fact-based.

It is the perfect day to tick items off your to-do list, resolve conflicts, and make decisions that require equal parts emotional intelligence and clear and sharp thinking.

Efficiently get things done. Make progress with your work today. If you have small tasks that you have been meaning to get to, whether it forms your emails inbox to tidying up your desk, tackle them today. You can quickly go through and respond to everything you put off earlier, unmotivated, or unfinished business.

Resolve conflicts. If you have had some tension in your workspace over the past few days or weeks, address it today. You will be able to be assertive and matter-of-fact in your conversations with those involved, while also being sensitive and empathetic.

Refine your plans. Fine-tune whatever projects you currently have on your plate. Edit, revise, and go deep.

September 12 — Sun in Virgo square Jupiter in Gemini

Key Area: Ambition vs. Overcommitment
This Sun-Jupiter square can inflate your sense of possibility but also scatter your focus. You might feel tempted to over-promise or take on too much, leading to overwhelm or dropped balls.

  • Keep Expectations Realistic: Ambition is great, but don’t bite off more than you can chew. Assess what’s doable and prioritize. If you feel pulled in too many directions, it’s okay to say no or postpone less urgent tasks.
  • Double-check the Fine Print: Jupiter’s influence can make you gloss over details in your enthusiasm. Review contracts, agreements, or any paperwork closely—don’t assume everything’s as straightforward as it seems.
  • Stay Humble and Grounded: You may feel extra confident in your ideas, but be open to feedback. Avoid getting caught up in grand visions that aren’t quite ready for the real world yet. Use this energy to refine, not rush.

Key Area: Relationships & Social Connections
This harmonious trine between Venus and Jupiter creates a perfect atmosphere for socializing, romance, and networking. It’s all about expanding connections and enjoying pleasant interactions—expect a boost in charm and luck in matters of the heart.

September 17 — Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces

Key Area: Emotional Release & Spiritual Growth

Emotional release & spiritual growth as it is a powerful eclipse that makes you more emotional and exposes hidden feelings. It is the best time to end something or reveal the truth, a good time to relieve yourself from emotional wounds or free your spirituality.

Endings; in your healing, you do not need something to hold you back; engaging in practices such as journaling, meditation, or even some creativity helps.

Open your intuition; energy from Pisces is associated with psychic sensitivity, thus, pay attention to your dreams, intuition, and synchronicities, do not ignore your guts.

Release grudges; during the eclipse, it is a good time to forgive either you or those around you, freeing up or ending personal enmity.

September 18 — Mercury in Virgo opposition Saturn in Pisces

Key Area: Communication & Responsibilities
Mercury opposing Saturn brings a clash between critical thinking and emotional burdens. You may feel blocked, misunderstood, or weighed down by responsibilities. It’s a day to address issues head-on with patience and realism.

  • Face the Tough Conversations: If there’s a difficult discussion you’ve been avoiding, now’s the time to tackle it—but be prepared for resistance. Stay calm, present your points clearly, and be ready to listen without getting defensive.
  • Double Down on Organization: Saturn loves structure, so get organized. Create lists, set priorities, and focus on the most pressing tasks first. Streamlining your workload will help alleviate some of the pressure.
  • Avoid Negative Self-talk: Saturn’s influence can bring up feelings of inadequacy or self-doubt. Catch those critical thoughts before they spiral. Affirm your efforts, even if progress feels slow—every step counts.

September 19 — Sun in Virgo trine Uranus in Taurus

Innovation & Personal Growth

The Sun-Uranus trine activates stimulating change and novelty, especially in your work routines and creativity pursuits. It offers a transitory moment to catch a newfangled wind and experiment with renewed vision. Here is how:

Safeguard a Different Routine: Disruption of the daily pattern for a brief moment can be refreshing. Adopt a different morning routine, random workout, innovative diet, etc. Fundamental change starts small, and you never know where it may lead unless you dive into the change-making process!

Savor the Sudden: Accept that opportunities might appear out of the blue and dare to grab them; a sudden treat can work wonders for you; go for that promotion, follow the expert’s advice, embrace that which catches your interest this very second!

Tech Your Tech or Skills: Daring to invest in the gadget, device, tech, or program you’ve always longed for would be perfect now; but so would using online platforms to upgrade your skills or learn something extraordinarily new! Tech-advance and skill development are favored forms of achievement under this set.

September 20 — Sun in Virgo opposition Neptune in Pisces

Key Area: Clarity vs. Confusion

  • Don’t make big decisions – with Neptune clouding my judgment, avoid signing contracts, making long-term commitments, or jumping to conclusions. If something seems too good or too bad to be true, it probably is.
  • Set boundaries with energy vampires – I feel you are more energetically sensitive to other people’s emotions and dramas. Protect your energy field and stay in my lane. Don’t participate in gossip or say yes to something people or influencers are pushing. Retreat into solitude if necessary.
  • Grounding practices – practical tasks keep grounded in reality may help. Examples: cleaning house and organizing your workspace, cooking healthy food, taking a grounding walk in nature.

September 21 — Sun in Virgo trine Pluto in Capricorn

Key Area: Transformation & Empowerment

  • Dive into Deep Work: Use this energy to tackle tasks that require the utmost concentration and effort on your part—research, problem-solving, or a major work task. You can tackle them with a precision-born grace for a seemingly impossible depth.
  • Eliminate Clutter—Physical or Emotional: Breathe a sigh of relief and get rid of what’s been holding you back—literal and metaphorical freeloads on your well-being. Clean out your workspace, release toxic habits or influences, and call it a day.
  • Own Your Power: If you’ve been hesitating—or shying away—from a leadership role, allow this full moon to embolden you. Do other things to assert your ideas or be confident, and influence others.

September 22 — Sun enters Libra / Fall Equinox / Mabon; Venus in Libra square Pluto in Capricorn; Venus enters Scorpio

Relationships & Balance

The Fall Equinox is a time of turning, underlined by harmony, balance, and new manifestations. Nevertheless, Venus square Pluto can incite power struggles and extremely strong emotions in terms of relationships, all while Venus is entering Scorpio and then opposing Uranus. Use the Equinox to seek balance. Question what’s fair in your personal or professional unions. Find the harmony and equality.

The balance between romantic love and the power dynamic in a relationship must be maintained. If you’re playing on the power dimension, you might get involved in the power struggle with your spouse, all while Venus is squaring Pluto. If you’re the one with the power, defend yourself from envy and control issues, especially at work. Do not establish ultimatums.

Deepen your ties with intensity. You may feel a deeper sense of connectedness. Venus in Scorpio can indicate a more intense transformation in terms of relationships. This encourages important conversations and exposes yourself to exposed feelings or wants. Be cautious, as the response may be intense and passionate.

September 24 — Mercury in Virgo trine Uranus in Taurus

Key Area: Communication & Problem-Solving

Embrace unconventional solutions. If this is something you have been facing difficulties with, now is the time to think unconventionally. Your thinking is at its best, and new ideas are easily accessible. Feel free to experiment with creative takes, and try alternative approaches and methods you would never dare to use before.

Upgrade the provisions of your communication. If it is about new software, new systems installation, or decluttering the inbox, there could not be a more professional approach than to do it while the stars serve. If you have a pitch, postulate, or just a daring thought, now is the time to share it. Do not suppress even the flashes of genius—they can lead you unexpectedly lucky!
