With Virgo season underway, we should see a stark contrast between the wobbly energy of last month and the more grounded energy of this month. Although Mars will be moving back into unconventional Aquarius, which should stir things up a bit; having the Sun and communicative Mercury in Virgo should help us with staying flexible, organized, and sane. And if we feel like we’ve fallen off track or off target, the New Moon in Virgo on September 9 will help us find our bearings again and get back on the wagon. Meanwhile, pleasure-loving Venus will be in all-or-nothing Scorpio, making sure that whatever or whomever we invest our time and resources into will truly be worth the trouble.

Overview:

With Virgo season underway, we should see a stark contrast between the wobbly energy of last month and the more grounded energy of this month. Although Mars will be moving back into unconventional Aquarius, which should stir things up a bit; having the Sun and communicative Mercury in Virgo should help us with staying flexible, organized, and sane. And if we feel like we’ve fallen off track or off target, the New Moon in Virgo on September 9 will help us find our bearings again and get back on the wagon. Meanwhile, pleasure-loving Venus will be in all-or-nothing Scorpio, making sure that whatever or whomever we invest our time and resources into will truly be worth the trouble.

The second half of the month ushers in Libra season (September 22), which reminds us of the importance of beauty and relationships. With Mercury also entering Libra around this time, we’re reminded to find the beauty in the world, while making room for others to be heard – especially when it comes to marginalized voices. Thankfully, the Full Moon in Aries on September 24, will make sure we find the courage needed to stand up for what we believe in and face the things that scare us. Also, good news: Saturn and Pluto end their retrogrades this month (September 6 and September 30, respectively) and begin moving forward again; helping us to give the ax to people, places, and situations that have left us feeling disempowered, unstable, or uncertain.

Aries:

Detail and discipline is the name of the game for you for much of September. That’s because communicative Mercury will be moving home to Virgo on September 5 and into your zone of health, work, and routine. With the Sun already in this zone, your focus turns to how you manage your schedule, as well as your physical and mental well-being. Virgo season will remind you of the importance of sticking to a healthy regimen when it comes to food, exercise, and your responsibilities so you get things done the right way without burning yourself out in the process. Look to the New Moon in Virgo (September 9) to help you with implementing a healthier lifestyle and finding the discipline you need to follow through. And since we’re talking about discipline, when love planet Venus enters Scorpio on September 9 and moves into your zone of intimacy and finances; it will be hard for others to resist you. Just remember Aries, that all are not welcome behind your closed doors (no matter how sexy, dangerous, or exciting they seem). When it comes to potential lovers be discerning. Meanwhile, Venus in Scorpio might help you find some extra cash or smooth things over with a financial obligation.

Come September 10, Mars moves to Aquarius – your zone of friendship; helping you to get focused and get out there when it comes to rubbing shoulders with influential people. Since this zone also covers your hopes and wishes, Mars in Aquarius will be helping you to take yours seriously, so you can pursue them. At the same time, there could be some shake-ups around your circle of friends. Don’t be afraid to kiss a bad friend goodbye. On the 22nd, the Sun enters Libra and moves into your zone of partnership putting the spotlight on teamwork, collaborations, and a significant other. Over the next few weeks, your road to success will be by way of savvy business partnerships and being open to support or assistance from others. With Mercury entering Libra on the 21st, you should find negotiations and conversations to go quite well; helping you to tap new opportunities and connect with new people. If looking for love, Libra season could bring you someone with commitment potential. Look to the Full Moon in Aries (September 24), lighting up your zone of self-image to help you with improving your self-acceptance. Hint: don’t beat yourself up.

Taurus:

Love, passion, and fun are on the agenda for you this month as communicative Mercury joins the Sun in Virgo (your zone of romance and creativity) on September 5. With Mercury at home in Virgo and this area of your life, you’re encouraged to get curious and to get busy when it comes to honing your talents, picking up new creative skills, and romancing your way into someone’s heart. If last month had you down and out for the count, use September to find your sense of joy and adventure again. The New Moon in Virgo on September 9 will be working its magic to help you start fresh in love and life. If your confidence has been waning, this New Moon will help you to feel like your fabulous self again. Meanwhile, on that same day, love planet Venus enters Scorpio and steps into your zone of partnership. No matter if love or business is on the table, Venus will be on hand making sure that you get the best of the best when it comes to potential partners.

On September 21st, Mercury enters Libra, your zone of health and work. With busy Mercury in this zone, you can expect the pace to pick up significantly.

On the 22nd the Sun enters Libra too, bringing the spotlight to how you care for your mind and body.

For some Taurus’ this might mean working with a therapist, nutritionist, or another type of healer. On the 24th, the month ends with a Full Moon in Aries, that ignites your zone of rest and retreat. This full moon will be a reminder for you to take care of your spiritual health too. This might include purging something from the past and allowing yourself to heal from an old wound.

Though Venus doesn’t like stressing themselves too much, which means your focus will also be on self-care and taking care of your well-being. If it’s been a while since you’ve treated yourself to some good drink and good food, Venus will push you to do so.

On the 10th, passionate Mars moves into Aquarius, your zone of travel and opportunity. With Mars here, don’t be surprised if you get the urge to take off at a moment’s notice or find yourself craving to get back into school. No matter which adventure you choose, your goal will be to expand your awareness, challenge old beliefs, and step out of your comfort zone. Come September 21st, Mercury enters Libra, your zone of romance and creativity. With Mercury in Libra putting you in the mood to flirt and get your kicks, you’re on the most popular list again.

And speaking of work, the Full Moon in Aries lands in your zone of career and recognition on September 24. Under the influence of this full moon, you could receive a step up in your career or garner widespread buzz on something that you’ve been working hard on. This is not a time where you’ll want to be modest about your resume. Don’t be afraid to toot your horn or sing your own praises. Chances are you’ll be so popular, you won’t have to anyway.

Leo:

The big, cash money wad is what’s on your mind this month as planets in Virgo camp out in your zone of income and possessions. With the Sun already in this zone, you might find that you’re most interested in manifesting money by way of a job offer, a new client, or a salary increase. Either way, you’re willing to put in the work it will take this month to grow your bank account. With detail-oriented Mercury entering Virgo on the 5th, your focus will also be on keeping better track of your money too. If you’ve been overspending, Mercury will call for you to create a budget and stick to it. Overall, while Virgo season rolls on, themes around your self-worth will come up for review. If you’ve been putting in lots of work and getting very little in return, Virgo season will ask that you hold yourself accountable and do something about it. Luckily, you’ll have the New Moon in Virgo (September 9) working on your behalf helping you to secure a new stream of income or to increase the one you already have. Meanwhile, Venus enters Scorpio, your zone of home and family on the same day. An upgrade to your living space can help you with attracting abundance, so don’t discount the importance of redecorating and decluttering your home.

On the 10th, aggressive Mars moves into Aquarius and into your zone of partnership. While you’ll certainly want to watch out for arguments with others and folks trying to overstep their boundaries with you, Mars in Aquarius could also introduce you to people that inspire and fuel you to be your best. At the same time, when it comes to how you handle your anger, can you find more constructive ways to fight? Remember the lessons you learned while Mars was retrograde. On the 21st, Mercury enters diplomatic Libra, your zone of communication; helping you to charm and get along with just about anyone that crosses your path. Lean on Mercury in Libra’s gift of negotiation and suave, that way you don’t let folks unnecessarily ruffle your feathers. Just make sure you’re not playing nice just for the sake of being liked or accepted. With the Sun entering Libra on the 22nd, it’ll be hard for others to not enjoy you or your company anyway, though that doesn’t mean everyone has an invitation. If you need to get something off your chest, however, the Full Moon in Aries landing in your zone of travel and opportunity on September 24th will help you to air something or someone out. Speaking your mind will boost your confidence.

Virgo:

Your birthday season is in full swing and the cosmos is making sure that you don’t leave empty-handed. Not only do you have the confident Sun working on your behalf bringing you extra warmth, power, and attention but Mercury, your patron saint, will be moving home to Virgo on September 5. With the Sun and Mercury housed in your zone of self-image and confidence, you should feel a lot clearer in terms of who you are and where you’re headed, especially since last month’s Mercury retrograde may have had your head spinning. Connecting and speaking with others should be a lot easier too, so you won’t have to worry too much about misunderstandings. As if that weren’t enough, the New Moon in Virgo on September 9 stops in to help you with starting fresh and breaking free of anything (or anyone) that’s been holding you back. If you’ve been looking to update your look, the new moon is perfect for getting a new hairstyle or revamping your wardrobe or beauty regimen.

If you’re looking to boost your social clout and network in a way that will lead to actual opportunities, Venus in Scorpio will help you out.

On September 10, go-getter Mars moves into Aquarius, your zone of health and work. With Mars kicking up things several notches, you’ll have to take care not to burn yourself out. You can be quite the workaholic but if you don’t take care to slow down (especially when your body is telling you to), you can end up making yourself sick. At the same time, Mars can assist you with getting back on track with a wellness program if you’ve fallen off. By the 21st, Mercury moves into Libra, your zone of income and possessions. With Mercury here, you might find yourself in negations over salary or money. Mercury in Libra will be working their magic to make sure you get what’s yours.

Under this full moon, you could finally pay off a debt or financial obligation or put an end to a toxic relationship.

Libra:

As you get prepared to celebrate your birthday, it seems you need to clean house a bit before you do. That’s why there will be a few planets camped out in Virgo this month which covers your zone of rest, retreat, and healing. With the Sun already in this zone, you might find yourself feeling a bit more reclusive than usual. That’s because you need to take time to yourself, to recharge, and to commune with the divine. With communicative Mercury moving into Virgo on September 5, it’s time for you to give your brain a much-needed timeout. Look towards meditative exercises like journal writing or healing sound mantras to help you with clearing your head and letting go of negative thoughts. If you’ve been dealing with issues around anxiety, depression, or severe mood swings; this would also be a good time to begin working with a therapist or a mental health expert. Going into your birthday, which is also considered a new year, you’ll want to make sure your load is as light as possible. The New Moon in Virgo on September 9 can assist you when it comes to developing a spiritual practice or giving yourself permission to let go of the past. Meanwhile, when Venus (your patron saint) enters Scorpio; your zone of income; also on September 9, your finances get a boost.

The following day, on September 10, Mars moves into Aquarius – your zone of romance and creativity. Under Mars’ keep, your mission will be to delve into your passions; allowing your creative energy to run wild. You might even come up with an idea or project that lands you on the map. Though overall, the point of this Mars transit will be for you to know what it’s like you let yourself go and have fun again. And, when it comes to love and romance, Mars will have you feeling yourself so much that you won’t be able to help turning heads. If you’re focused on doing what you want to do, you’ll have folks eating out the palm of your hand. Still, the party doesn’t stop there as Mercury moves into Libra, your zone of self-image, on September 21; helping you to move mountains with your words and ideas. As the social butterfly of the zodiac, you already have the gift of gab but with Mercury on your side; let’s just say… be intentional about what you speak into existence. Come September 22 the Sun moves into Libra, kicking off your birthday season. With the Sun in your zone of self-image; you should feel more capable and more powerful than you have in a while. On the 24th, the Full Moon in Aries in your partnership zone may either solidify or liquefy a key relationship. The choice is yours.

Scorpio:

It’s all about who you know this month as your zone of friendship and allies gets its annual visit from the Sun and Mercury in Virgo. With the Sun already in this area of your chart, you may already be dealing with all kind of events, gatherings, and parties with people in your circle. When Mercury shows up on September 6, you can expect that number to increase. This is a good thing though, as the people you’ll be meeting won’t only be kindred spirits, they’ll also be people that can turn you on to new opportunities. That’s right look to the people you know to put in a good word on your behalf when it comes to your work and your character. If people reach out to you now, it will most likely be due to all of the good things they’ve been hearing about you. If you have something to share with the public, the New Moon in Virgo on September 9 can help you with building a campaign or network to get the word out. Plus, with charming Venus entering Scorpio (your zone of self-image) on September 9, your magnetism will go up a few notches helping you to attract the right people to you – professionally and romantically. So don’t be surprised if folks are clamoring over themselves trying to get next to you.

On the 10th, things may get a bit rocky as aggressive Mars moves back into Aquarius, your zone of home and family. With Mars stirring things up, arguments and home-related accidents could be aplenty but utilize what you’ve learned from Mars retrograde to help you with keeping your cool. As it’s often said on these astrology streets, Mars in your home zone is usually a good time for doing anything around the house that requires extra energy; like making repairs, reorganizing the closets/furniture, and of course, moving to a new space. Come the 21st, things should calm down a bit as Mercury enters Libra, your zone of rest and retreat; pushing you to take some time to yourself and to get away from the everyday noise of the world. When the Sun enters Libra on the following day (September 22), your source of warmth and good vibes will come from solitude, rest, and engaging activities that soothe and feed your spirit. However, on the 24th, things may get a bit bumpy again as the Full Moon in Aries ignites your zone of health and work. At the least, this moon will highlight where you need to improve your health and what you can do about it.

Sagittarius:

You’re the biggest boss that we’ve seen thus far, well, at least for the month of September. That’s because your career zone gets some extra love and attention from the Sun and Mercury in Virgo. Now that the Sun is already working their magic in this zone, you might find that you’re getting all kinds of attention and recognition from folks from all over, especially as your reputation begins speaking for itself. With Mercury headed into your career zone on September 6, get ready to rock your moment in the spotlight. People are going to be looking to you for your knowledge and expertise, so make sure you’re ready to wow ‘em.

Look towards activities that renew your body and your soul. On another note, this Venus transit could also bring a soul mate like connection. Try not to get swept away by this person too soon.

On September 10, go-getter Mars moves into Aquarius, your zone of communication. With Mars here, you might find yourself being more opinionated than usual. Try to keep the need to share/post every single thought that comes to your head to a minimum as not everyone needs to know your business and some things may be better left unsaid. However, do use Mars’ courage and confidence to speak up for yourself or on behalf of someone that can’t speak up for themselves. On the 21st, Mercury enters Libra, your zone of friendship. As such, don’t be too surprised if opportunities start coming your way based on the people you know. Thanks to the hard work you’ve been putting in, it will be hard for people to not know your name. Meanwhile, when it comes to your friends, spending time with them and attending social gatherings will be just what you need, especially as the Sun enters Libra on September 22. Come September 24, a passionate Full Moon in Aries ignites your zone of romance and creativity; which could help you seal the deal on a current romance or kiss a dead one goodbye. In terms of your creative talent, be prepared for a breakthrough. P.s. authenticity is sexy on you.

Capricorn:

Moving beyond what you know is the theme for you this month, as planets in Virgo take up residence in your zone of travel, education, and opportunity. With the confident Sun already in this zone, you might find yourself being pushed to branch out and explore the world. When curious Mercury moves into Virgo on September 5, that “push” will be hard to ignore as Mercury will have you thirsting for new experiences and interesting things to learn. Some of these experiences will be best had overseas or in a classroom. Either way, your mission is to reclaim your sense of freedom and get used to looking on the bright side. The New Moon in Virgo on September 9 will assist you in opening your heart to adventure. If there’s something you’ve been wanting to take a risk on, a place you’ve wanted to visit, or maybe even a book that you’ve wanted to publish; this new moon will give you the cosmic help you need. On that very same day, charming Venus will enter Scorpio, your zone of friendship and hopes and wishes. Not only will Venus be helping you to see what’s possible when it comes to your dreams, but they will also help you to become of the toast of the town. And guess what? That could help you attract some cash too.

On the 10th, aggressive Mars enters Aquarius, your zone of income and possessions. If you’ve been working yourself extremely hard and getting very little back as a form of compensation or reward; Mars will push you to be more demanding about what you get paid. In other words, it’s time to put some “respeck” on your name, Cap. Know that people won’t undersell or underestimate you if you don’t undersell or underestimate yourself first. Like Queen Ramonda told T’Challa “remember who you are”. On the 21st, Mercury enters Libra, your zone of career and recognition. As such, look to Mercury to bring you opportunities to share your thoughts, words, and ideas on a major platform. When the Sun enters Libra a day later, your career gets a boost. Over the next few weeks you might receive a position of authority or increased responsibility with the pay and the benefits to go along with it. Come September 24, a Full Moon in Aries lights up your zone of home and family; which could bring up something painful from your past. Though know that this will be your opportunity to address what happened and heal from it once and for all. If relocating, this moon could help you finalize details.

Aquarius:

Just when you thought you were down for the count, the cosmos sends you some reinforcements to pick you back up. The first up to the rescue is Mercury, which moves to Virgo on September 5 and into your zone of intimacy and rebirth. If you’ve been spending too much of your time wrapped up in an unhealthy relationship or giving your power away to those that are undeserving, Mercury (along with the Sun) in Virgo will help you to be more vocal about your boundaries and better at trusting yourself and your intuition. Meanwhile, the New Moon in Virgo on September 9 will stop by to help you with getting out of a tough financial situation (do your research!) and commit to breaking free of any unhealthy attachments. Though your blessings don’t stop there. On September 9, money-making Venus will enter Scorpio, your zone of career and recognition; helping you to secure the bag (ca-ching!) and a top-notch position. You might also generate some sort of media buzz for your work too. Work with Venus to level-up in your career and capitalize on the stellar reputation you’ve been building.

Still, that’s not all. On September 10, confident Mars moves back into Aquarius, your zone for confidence and self-image. With Mars moving forward and back on your team, you’re virtually unstoppable. Not only will you have an increase in physical energy, but you should experience an increase in bad-ass energy too. Remember the lessons you’ve learned from Mars retrograde and move forward with more confidence and determination than you have in the past. Come September 21st, Mercury enters Libra, your zone of travel and education. With Mercury helping you to get curious about the world again, you might find fun in a class or workshop setting, learning something new. Mercury will also help you with planning the perfect trip if you’ve been dying to get away. Overall, you’re in need of some fresh air now and Libra season will light the way for you, especially with the radiant Sun entering Libra on September 22. On the 24th, the fiery Full Moon in Aries lights up your zone of communication, illuminating the ways you hold yourself back with fear and negative thinking. This moon will push you to break that cycle.

Pisces:

It’s Team Pisces for most of this month as a team of planets camp out in Virgo, your zone of partnership. The party begins on September 5, as chatty Mercury enters Virgo, joining the Sun. With these two powerhouses in your zone of significant relationships, you could find yourself negotiating deals and contracts that could help to put some extra cash in your pocket. At the same time, the Sun and Mercury will be working together to introduce you to an influential person that could help you grow and shine on a professional level. Keep your eye out for people whose talents or expertise either compliment or exceed yours. In other words, no leveling down Pisces. Look to the New Moon in Virgo on September 9 to help you with establishing new connections and entering agreements. Since this zone of your chart also covers romantic relationships, this new moon could bring you a new boo. For Pisces that are already with the love of their lives, this moon could mark a fresh and exciting chapter in your relationship. Also, on September 9, fun-loving Venus enters Scorpio, your zone of travel and opportunity. Venus will be on hand to help you delve into your passions, find freedom in being yourself, and open yourself up to new adventures.

On the 10th, Mars re-enters Aquarius and steps back into your zone of rest and retreat. While this is not an easy spot for Mars to be, utilize the energy by being more demanding about your self-care and alone time. If anger comes up now, this is a good time to work on releasing resentment but watch out for passive aggressiveness. It’s OK to be a bitch every now and again. Even a goddess must carry a machete from time to time. Come the 21st, Mercury enters Libra, your zone of intimacy and rebirth. If debt and financial management have been an issue, Mercury will help you to be more accountable with your cash, so you can save more and get out of debt faster. Taking a money management course or working with a financial expert could also be helpful. The following day, the Sun enters Libra putting the spotlight on your deepest desires. Know that you deserve to have what you want and that includes healthy, well-balanced relationships. If you’ve been giving too much of yourself for too little, let the Sun in Libra help you to regain your strength and your confidence to do right by you. The Full Moon in Aries landing in your zone of income and self-worth on September 24 will help you to put you first.

Now that you’ve got your monthly report, tell us what you’re looking forward to this month!

August 2018 Horoscopes

If things have felt "stop and go" thanks to last month’s eclipses and all the retrograde planetary action we’ve been getting; this month brings us some much-needed momentum. Not only is Mercury moving forward again, but aggressive Mars also turns direct; which should help us with getting plans, projects, and initiatives off the ground. Meanwhile, we’re still in eclipse season with one more eclipse to go; the Solar Eclipse in Leo on August 11, 2018. Under this eclipse, we should expect dramatic new beginnings, fresh starts, and life-changing opportunities that span themes that cover confidence, creativity, romance, and authenticity. With the shifts and changes that are still afoot, it’s a good thing that Mars will be moving back into grounded and responsible Capricorn by mid-month. With Mars in one of their favorite places to be, the energy in the air shouldn’t feel as jarring as it has been over the past few weeks, especially with Mars turning direct by August 27. Couple Mars grounding vibes with the earthy energy of Virgo season (August 23) and we should be able to find the motivation, energy, and the clarity to move into the next phase of our lives. Meanwhile, the Full Moon in Pisces on August 26 will stop by to help us with turning a dream into something real.

Even though Mars, the planet of action is still retrograde, that doesn’t mean that it won’t be an action-packed month. That’s because we’ve got two influential eclipses happening in July, plus Mercury retrograde. The first eclipse lands on July 12, which promises to be an emotional Solar Eclipse in Cancer. Solar Eclipses, which are super-powered New Moons, often mark profound new beginnings in our lives. As a tender and intuitive water sign, eclipses in Cancer often trigger major shifts and opportunities with themes associated with women and children, families, home and our sense of emotional security.

Although Gemini season is in full swing, the pace this month slows down significantly once the planets begin shifting into cautious Cancer, pushing us to lean on our intuition rather than making snap judgments. At the same time, active Mars will also begin its two-month retrograde; backtracking through the signs of Aquarius and Capricorn and helping us to make sure we’re not blindly following the rules in place or investing our energy into futile endeavors. Planet Neptune (dreams, illusions, compassion) also goes retrograde this month in Pisces, pushing us to see through illusions and to see things as they are. In fact, with a Full Moon in no-nonsense Capricorn happening this month as well, many of us are due for a reality check.

With Venus’ help, your goal is to socialize and connect with people that not only share your interests and your vision but may also have the influence or clout to open doors for you and connect you with new opportunities.

Monthly Horoscopes for November 2017

Aries: Your finances continue to be a focus as November opens with a Full Moon in Taurus landing in your zone of income, self-worth, and possessions on November 4th. Under the influence of this moon, an income stream could come to an end or you could be pushed to change your financial habits. One message that this Moon is bringing for you for though, is the need for you to better honor your worth. That means if you've been underselling your skills or putting up with a job that undervalues you, this full moon will remind you that you can't survive this way. As a matter of fact, your focus should be on thriving, instead of just scraping by. As such, you may want to kick your job search into high gear, with an emphasis on finding something worth your while as opposed to a quick-fix kind of job. Yes, bills need to be paid, but if you keep wasting your time on menial, dead-end jobs it won't get you any closer to where you want to be. Trust that if you're putting in the work and you've taken a shot at getting something you want, the universe will respond in kind. That's why on November 5th, communication planet Mercury will be moving into Sagittarius (your zone of travel, opportunity, and education) to help you build up your faith, so you can see what's really possible. Mercury will be motivating you to open your mind and shift your perspective. Your options will no longer seem as bleak as they may seem right now. You’ve got to be open to something new though.

By November 7th, Venus – the planet of love and money – moves into Scorpio; your zone of intimacy, finances, and rebirth. In matters of the heart, Venus could help you with attracting a deeper, soulful kind of love as the casual flings won’t cut it. Though if you’ve been down on love, hosting Venus in this area of your chart could also help you with healing heartbreak and moving on. Sometimes it takes a bit of bottoming out to get to a place where you can start fresh. Look to the New Moon in Scorpio on November 18th, to help you kick start your emotional healing. Hint: part of this work may mean that you’ll have to come to terms with your dark side, as well as beginning the process of owning those pieces of you that you’ve been taught were bad, ugly, or undeserving. Since this zone is also connected to money, this new moon could also help you with achieving financial freedom. Strategize ways that you (and your partner, if applicable) can pay off debt and get your books in order. If you do have a partner, the two of you may decide to pool your resources together at this time for a joint investment, like buying a house or condo. If you need a loan, this moon can help. On the 21st, the Sun moves into Sagittarius, putting the spotlight back on your sense of adventure. Spending time in a different country or city, taking classes, and pursuing new experiences will rejuvenate you. Meanwhile, Neptune going forward in Pisces (your zone of retreat and healing) on November 22nd, helps to restore your faith in something bigger.

Taurus: Like Michael Jackson once said, “you are not alone”. There are people in your corner that are ready to love and support you and this month, your job is to connect with them. Though in order to do so, you may have to be willing to let go of the notion that it’s just you against the world. That’s why the Full Moon in Taurus, landing in your zone of confidence and self-image on November 4th, will be motivating you to heal and release your old wounds. At the same time, some of your relationships may experience a shakeup as you’re also called to let go of stagnant and self-limiting connections. When communicative Mercury moves into Sagittarius on November 5th and into your zone of intimacy, finances, and rebirth; you’re asked to dive deep into the spaces of your heart and soul to see the ways that you may have been giving your power and attention away to the unworthy. Mercury will be asking that you get more comfortable with your intuition, as ignoring it will only lead to you feeling more mistrustful of yourself and others. The key here is using your intuitive power to suss out the people that are truly genuine while keeping the fugazi ones at arms length. Writing down your feelings in a journal or discussing them with a therapist could be cathartic for you. If you’re a creative type, you might also opt to work out these thoughts and feelings in a creative piece. In terms of finances, Mercury will also help you to work out a budget to improve your savings or reduce your debts.

By the 7th, Venus (your patron saint) moves into the deep waters of Scorpio and into your zone of partnerships. With Venus’ help, you could meet someone with commitment potential, if single and looking, while those of you already in relationships could re-devote yourselves to the love you have. Since this zone also covers business partnerships, you should also look towards joining forces with others that can help you to make more money. That’s why the New Moon in Scorpio on November 18th will be helping you to establish the right connections, in your professional life as well as your romantic life. However, if relationships have been a sore spot for you, look to this moon to help you with clearing space for the kinds of people that you want and deserve to have in your life. Know that you don’t have to settle or cling to “almost, not quite right” relationships out of fear of being alone. With Scorpio it’s either all or nothing, no halfway. This theme of all or nothing will be especially strong come November 21st, when the Sun moves into Sagittarius, continuing the work that Mercury in Sagittarius started. Over the next few weeks, while the Sun travels here, you should expect to do a soul recon mission of sorts, as the cosmos asks you to get in deeper touch with your truest desires. Why do think that you shouldn’t have what you want? Is it because you’ve been taught to accept a life full of hardship? Allow Sagittarius season to help you to reconnect to abundance, true love, and pleasure.

Gemini: This month you may find out that it’s all about learning how to balance your needs with the needs of others without losing yourself or making yourself crazy in the process.

As an intellectual Air sign, you often live in your head and get uncomfortable when it comes to feeling your feelings, but this full moon will push you to pay attention to them. As you pave the way for new things and experiences to enter your life, know that you have to be willing to let go of anything that isn’t working for you. Under this moon, this could mean an attachment to the past, an old emotional wound, or a build-up of resentments. If you find yourself feeling particularly unable to let go or move on, this moon could also inspire you to seek the help of a therapist or spiritual guide, especially as Mercury (your patron saint) moves into Sagittarius on November 5th and into your zone of partnership; encouraging you to build a winning team. On the 7th, pleasure loving Venus moves into Scorpio, your zone of health, work, and routine. With Venus here, this could be a good time to ramp up your self-care regimen by making sure to get good foods to eat (treats included) and enough beauty rest. When it comes to your professional life, Venus could also help you to find a new job or your workday to go much smoother.

On the 18th, the New Moon in Scorpio steps in to help you with getting your sh*t together. Consider this moon a gift from the universe as you’ll find that getting back on track when it comes to a fitness program or a daily schedule will be much easier to do. At the same time, since Scorpio is a sign that loves to purge anything that’s considered dead weight, you could also use this moon to help you initiate a mind and body detox. This could include cutting back on alcohol or quitting smoking, as well as clearing out any clutter that you may have in your office or living space. Either way, the goal is to practice taking care of your needs first, so you can operate from a full place instead of a depleted one. On the 21st, the Sun moves into Sagittarius, bringing the attention back to partnerships. In terms of love, some Gemini could meet someone new while those of you that are already attached, may find yourselves focused on your shared goals or interests. With Mercury also in Sagittarius, look to establishing relationships that offer something new for you to learn or experience. Though that doesn’t mean that everyone is invited to the party though. Connecting with people one-on-one will make for genuine, longer lasting relationships. On the 22nd, when Neptune moves forward again in Pisces, your zone of career and achievement, things won’t seem so foggy or uncertain like before.

Cancer: You’ve got big plans, but how willing are you to do what it takes to follow through on them? This might be the question that needs an answer this month as the planets bring attention to your long range plans and the things you’re truly passionate about.

With the help of this full moon, you’re pushed to release any doubts or fears that you have around moving forward and pursuing what you really want. If you haven’t figured out by now, the universe is ready for you to stop playing yourself small. That means it’s time to grab the bull by its horns (thank you, Taurus) and don’t let go.

When it comes to the progress you make this month, it’s all about focusing on the things that touch your heart.

Under this moon, you could decide to make a swift exit from your current job, especially if you haven’t been feeling happy at what you do. While a title and status looks good to others and on a resume, it doesn’t mean much if you don’t enjoy what you do or the position you’re in. Your career should be challenging yes, but not at the expense of your well-being, remember that. Should you find yourself looking for a new job, this moon can help you to use the reputation you’ve built to leverage a better opportunity. And if you’re happy where you are professionally, this full moon could also help you to garner attention and accolades from some very influential people.

When charming Venus moves into Scorpio on November 7th and into your zone of communication, expect your powers of charm and flirtation to go up several notches. Put this power to good use by striking up conversations and setting up meetings with people you want to get close to, as these will be the folks that will help you spread the word when it comes to something you may want to market or release to the public. At the same time, the creative inspiration you receive now will be hard to ignore, which means the ideas you generate could help you to bring in some extra money.

With Taurus being a sign that’s associated with self-worth, the full moon can help you to see where you may need to take back your power and let go of those that don’t honor or respect you. You deserve the world, Libra. Don’t allow anyone to make you feel any different. By the 5th, communicative Mercury moves into Sagittarius, your zone of communication.

With the help of this full moon, you could find yourself saying goodbye to a dead-end relationship, which could be romantic or professional.

Don’t be surprised if you find yourself wanting to spend more time alone. You need the time away to rest and replenish your well. A note: since hosting Venus in this zone also means the chance of developing a behind the scenes love affair, just make sure that the person you set your sights on is really who they say they are, as it might not be so apparent at the start. If they seem too good to be true, they probably are.

Monthly Horoscopes For September 2017

Aries: The planets never stop and nor do you, but this month the major focus will be on how you move and who you’re making moves with. Even though we’re entering the month with Mercury retrograde don’t expect September to start off slow, especially as a bevy of planets begin entering Virgo; your zone of health, work, and routine. With the Sun already in this zone, pulling your focus towards getting your sh*t together, Mars is follows along; moving into Virgo on September 5th. With your patron saint in the sign associated with details and dedication, you get the most accomplished this month by paying closer attention to the small day to day things in your life that you may normally want to avoid, like sticking to a schedule. In terms of health, Mars will be motivating you to take better care of yours. You may decide to start a new fitness program or a food detox plan. A note: between Mars entering Virgo and Mercury moving forward again in Leo (your zone of fun and creativity) beginning September 5th, you may be tempted to take on everything at once. However, doing so will easily lead to a burn out. Make sure you use the powers of Virgo to decide what warrants your time and energy and what doesn’t. This will be especially true when the Full Moon in Pisces lands in your zone of rest, healing, and retreat on September 6th.

Under the influence of this Pisces moon, you may find yourself pushed towards a place of surrender, which means giving up the need to control things you have no control over and spending too much time on things that rob you of your sense of fulfillment. In other words, let go. While this moon may have you in your feelings, take it as a cue to address your deeper needs. By the 9th, when Mercury moves back home to Virgo, the pace picks up again; packing your schedule with all sorts of errands and appointments. The key to staying on track will be to finish what you start and keeping things sweet and simple. When Venus arrives to the Virgo party on September 19th, this could be a good time for job hunting. Venus will be beaming her good fortune your way, especially alongside the New Moon in Virgo on September 20th.

On the 29th, when Mercury moves into Libra, look to connect with new people; especially those that can teach you something new.

Taurus: Ready? Set? Go, Taurus! Though we’re entering the month on the tail end of a Mercury retrograde, it won’t mean that September will be a slow-moving month, as the stars will be doing their share to help push you forward. The action begins on September 5th, with passionate Mars entering Virgo, your zone of romance, creativity, and adventure. With Mars revving things up, you’ll find that you’ll be craving more fun and excitement than usual. This is a good thing as Mars will help you to find the courage to try new things and avoid getting stuck on the same old stuff. That goes for love affairs too. With Mercury moving forward again in Leo (September 5th); your zone of home and family, you should have a clear idea of what you may need to release from your past in order to move forward. You may need to save some of those goodbyes for some of the people in your life, especially if they haven’t been the type you can count on. The Full Moon in Pisces on September 6th may highlight this as it illuminates your zone of friendships and alliances. At the same time, this moon may also show you where you could do more to give back to others or be more supportive of a friend. On the 9th, Mercury moves into Virgo; fueling your passion to learn something new. With Mercury’s help, you could decide to take classes in fiction writing, music, or find just the right outlet for your creative inspiration.

If single and interested in making a love match, you could have plenty of opportunities to meet someone new over the coming weeks. Meanwhile, if you’ve already found the love of your life, Venus in Virgo could help to rekindle the flame between the two of you and perhaps bring up a convo about having children. On another note, having Venus working alongside Mercury, could also show you how to make some extra cash off a hobby or a creative skill. By September 20th, the New Moon in Virgo could help you to get in touch with your passion while pushing you to be a more authentic version of yourself. On the 22nd, the Sun moves into Libra (your zone of health, work, and routine) encouraging you to find more of a balance between your work life and your private life. This may mean scaling back on the hours at work, eating better, or making your environment clutter free. With transformative Pluto moving direct in Capricorn (your zone of travel and education) on September 28th, you may realize where you need to let go of outworn beliefs or philosophies in order to get the most out of life. On the 29th, Mercury joins the Sun in Libra, kicking off a busy yet productive period. Don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it.

Gemini: As you come out of August still feeling a bit wobbly, especially as Mercury (your ruling planet) spent most of last month retrograde, your goal for September is to make sure that you’re standing on solid ground before you move forward. You’ll receive some help with this mission as a bevy of planets line up in Virgo; your zone of home and family. With the Sun already in this zone, you may already be looking for ways to improve your sense of stability. When Mars moves into Virgo on the 5th, you may decide to move or upgrade your home to increase your peace of mind, or you may decide to enlist the help of a therapist to address any anxiety, anger, or sadness that may be keeping you off kilter. When Mercury begins moving forward again in Leo on September 5th, in your zone of communication and ideas, the delays and miscommunications you may have experienced over the last few weeks begin to subside. Hopefully, you were able to learn ways in which you could be more effective with your communication skills or where you may need to let go of an outdated perspective. On September 6th, the Full Moon in Pisces lights up your zone of career, fame, and achievement.
