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:

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.
