Expect September to be a month of accountability as the planets gather together to help us to see the ways in which our words, values, and beliefs are out of alignment with our actions, and the steps we can take to set things straight.The month opens with an emotional Full Moon in compassionate Pisces on Sept 2, which highlights the ways our beliefs shape how we treat others and how we’re treated in return. For some of us, this full moon will show us where we need healthier boundaries or to be more selflessly giving.
Come the 5th, chatty Mercury moves into fair and objective Libra, pushing for more communications, negotiations, and decisions where everyone feels valued and heard. The next day, love planet Venus moves into bold and passionate Leo, which not only encourages us to love what’s special about ourselves, but also encourages us to envision how much better our world would look if everyone (especially our unsung heroes) were treated like they were special, too.
On September 9th, things come to a grinding halt as action-oriented Mars begins its two-month retrograde in headstrong Aries. With Mars retrograde it’s time to slow down, reassess our actions, as well as our relationship to anger, and figure out how best to move forward. Between expansive Jupiter moving forward again in ambitious Capricorn on September 12 and a New Moon in disciplined Virgo on September 17, whatever actions we do take will require patience and some level of personal responsibility, particularly as no-nonsense Saturn begins moving forward again (September 29) in Capricorn as well.
Change is in the air once again as the month opens with a super-charged lunar eclipse in no-nonsense Capricorn on July 5. As lunar eclipses mark endings, letting go, and completion, this eclipse pushes us to confront our fears and address our anger, as well as break free of outdated beliefs, crushing individualism, and narrow-mindedness.
With serious Saturn (Capricorn's planetary ruler) still in retrograde and dipping back into Capricorn on July 1, the theme for the month will center on dismantling the systems, contracts, and norms that leave us feeling stuck and powerless. Come July 12, when communicative Mercury begins moving forward again in intuitive Cancer, we're called to move forward, too, and leave the past behind.
On the 20th, we get a new moon in Cancer (the second one in a month), though with this new moon in a super-tense standoff with somber Saturn, it may be hard (or at least feel like it is) to get plans and initiatives off the ground. So as not to get discouraged, we're encouraged to reach down deep for some hope, inspiration, and a stick-to-it approach to see ourselves and each other through.
Come July 22, the tension in the air dissipates a bit as the Sun moves home to warm and confident Leo, putting the spotlight on joy, generosity, and integrity, as well as our ability to fully show up for ourselves, as ourselves.

June begins with a game-changing Lunar Eclipse in philosophical and adventurous Sagittarius (June 5), which pushes us to let go of outdated or counterproductive beliefs, thinking, and habits (especially where love and relationships are concerned). This eclipse will also demand that we improve our fact-checking abilities, and focus on small, incremental goal setting.
Fact-checking and keeping things simple will be particularly important when communicative Mercury goes retrograde in intuitive Cancer on the 18th. As Mercury retrograde periods are better for tying up loose ends rather than beginning new projects, Mercury retrograde in Cancer will also make it difficult to remain objective; making it a better time for sorting out emotional entanglements or matters relating to home and family finances.
By the 20th, the summer officially kicks off, bringing Cancer season along with it, putting the focus on our emotional security and nourishment, especially with the Solar Eclipse in Cancer on June 21. Under this eclipse we can expect emotions to be running high, making self-care and tenderness important. Additionally, this eclipse will push us to focus on things that bring internal reward rather than external.

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.

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.
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.
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.

And on the 10th, Mars re-enters Aquarius, your career zone, to help you achieve boss level status.
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. This means you’ll have to stay on top of your list of responsibilities as well as your schedule. Though if you feel like you’ve been slacking, Mercury in Libra will push you to get back to work. On the 22nd the Sun enters Libra too, bringing the spotlight to how you care for your mind and body. If you’ve been over-indulging on sweets, alcohol, etc., Libra season will motivate you to take better care of yourself. 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.

And speaking of relationships, Venus moves to Scorpio on September 9 and into your zone of health and routine; helping you to get along better with co-workers and get shit done. 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. On another note, when it comes to your creative ideas, Mercury will send your inspiration through the roof.

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.
Your birthday season is in full swing and the cosmos is making sure that you don’t leave empty-handed.

Connecting and speaking with others should be a lot easier too, so you won’t have to worry too much about misunderstandings.

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.

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

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.
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.

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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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!
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.

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.

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.

What do you want to be recognized for? What do you want to create for the generations that will come behind you? With Venus here, you’re being asked to co-create your vision with the Universe with confidence. On the 12th, curious Mercury enters Sagittarius, your zone of travel, media, and opportunity. With Mercury in visionary Sagittarius, it’s time to shift your perception and believe in the impossible again. Your mantra now? Nothing ventured, nothing gained. When the Full Moon in Taurus lands in your zone of income and possessions on November 14th, consider it your call to put an end to being undervalued or underpaid. Own your value. On the 21st, the Sun enters Sagittarius; joining Mercury (and Saturn). Under their influence, the craving for new experiences and new adventures will be hard to ignore.

Taurus: Your career and reputation heat up this month, thanks to go-getter Mars entering Aquarius (November 9th); your zone of fame, ambition, and achievement. Though with Mars in an unconventional sign like Aquarius, it’s time for you to take some risks when it comes to your professional path. You could decide to strike out on your own path or go for a position that doesn’t leave you feeling like you’re being micromanaged. Overall, make your moves in a way that your competitors (or the ones you want to impress) least expect. In other words, never let them see you coming. On the 11th, pleasure-loving Venus enters Capricorn (a fellow earth sign) and steps into your zone of travel, opportunity, and education. With Venus here, your source of pleasure will be found in a distant country, in a workshop or classroom learning something new, or with someone whose culture is very different than yours (love is in the air!). On the 12th, communicative Mercury moves into Sagittarius and into your zone of intimacy and finances. With Mercury here, expect to talk money—how you spend it, how you make it, who you owe it to, etc. If money has been an issue, this could be a good time to work with a coach or expert to help you get on the right track. When the Full Moon in Taurus lands in your zone of self-image and confidence on the 14th, get ready to release something or someone that’s been holding you back.

On the 21st, the Sun enters Sagittarius (joining Mercury and Saturn) putting a spotlight on your sense of security and empowerment. When the New Moon in Sagittarius lands in this zone on the 29th, get ready to break free of anything no longer worth your time and energy. Clear a path.
Gemini: Get ready for a big, wide world to open up for you this month. When Mars enters Aquarius (your zone of travel, opportunity, and education) on November 9th, the same old boring things simply won’t do. Expect to feel like you’ve got ants in your pants now (I mean more than usual), and don’t be surprised if you hop on a flight at a moment’s notice or find yourself suddenly interested in French architecture, taking classes and taking up photography to go along with it. Look to this month as your planetary pass to break the monotony. Right now it’s about feeding your biggest dreams and your big spirit. On the 11th, Venus moves into Capricorn and into your zone of intimacy and finances. With Venus here you could come by some extra cash through an investment, a financial gift or a loan. If you’ve been looking for funding for something you’ve been wanting, this is an excellent time to apply for a grant, scholarship, or loan. On the 12th, Mercury steps into Sagittarius; lighting up your zone of partnership. Take a cue from Mercury to invite some spontaneity or a change of pace into your love life. Since Sagittarius is a jet-setting kind sign, this could mean finding romance with someone who’s not your usual type or who has a love of travel/exploration. With this area of your chart also in charge of business alliances, this is a great time to align yourself with someone that can help you grow your business, reputation, or client pool. On the 14th, a Full Moon in Taurus (November 14th) lands in your zone of rest, healing, and retreat. Under this moon a secret or hidden information could be brought to light that could help you put less stock in what others think of you. On the 21st, the Sun enters Sagittarius; joining Mercury (and Saturn). Under this planetary power, you could move a significant relationship in to a deeper place of commitment or figure out where/how you’ve been wasting time with someone unworthy. Use the New Moon in Sagittarius on November 29th to help you start fresh in love or embark on a new chapter in your relationship. This goes for business partnerships too.
Cancer: This month, it’s all about handling your biz thanks to motivated Mars moving into Aquarius—your zone of finances and deep bonding on November 9th. Under the influence of each, you’ll begin considering the investments you’ve been making in people as of late and whether or not you’ve been receiving a justifiable return on those investments. As a sign that’s motivated by safety and security you thrive on relationships that are mutually beneficial or at the very least, offer you something for the long term. With Mars in this zone you may need to take action in ending a dis-empowering/unstable relationship. Another way Mars can show up is by helping you take the steps necessary to achieve your financial freedom. On the 11th when Venus enters Capricorn, your zone of marriage and partnership, the Universe beams some extra love your way. If love hasn’t gone your way, Venus can help you turn things around.

For those of you in happy relationships, Venus could help you deepen your bond (wedding bells?) or make some significant progress in terms of a professional collaboration.

With communicative Mercury here, expect the pace to pick up significantly which means that you’ll have to be well rested and energized to tackle everything on your to-do list.

On the 21st the Sun enters Sagittarius, joining Mercury (and Saturn). While the Sun is in this zone, your source of strength and vitality will come by getting more active or leaving behind a counterproductive work environment. Look to the New Moon in Sagittarius (November 29th) to help you start fresh in these areas.
Leo: Partnership and relationships come to the forefront this month as feisty Mars enters Aquarius (November 9th), your zone of significant others. With Mars in this area of your chart, you’ll have to watch out for disagreements between you and your significant other (whether romantic or professional) over the next few weeks, though Mars here could give you the courage you need to end a bad business or romantic relationship or to set better boundaries within one. If you find that this energy has the two of you feeling cagey, channel that passion into the bedroom or boardroom. Sometimes there’s nothing like hot, angry sex or a heated brainstorming meeting to get the blood (and creativity) pumping. On the 11th, when Venus enters Capricorn, your zone of health and routine, it’s time to make prioritizing a part of your self-care routine. You love to stay busy and are always willing to lend a helping hand to others, but if you’ve got one to many things on your plate, you risk becoming overwhelmed and burnt out. Be intentional this month about what you say yes to, so you can fill your space and your schedule with the things you really want to do. And speaking of things to do: on the 12th, playful Mercury moves into Sagittarius (your zone of romance, fun, and creativity) which means it’s time for you to get out and a few cool adventures. Look to activities like exploring a new place, catching a few films or a play, writing that short story, or making some new friends to be your source of fun and learning.

Virgo: The month opens with you getting to do something you love: getting sh*t in order. That’s because Mars, the planet of action, is entering Aquarius – your zone of health, work, and routine – on November 9th. With Mars in this area of your chart, your mission (should you choose to accept it) will be to establish better boundaries between your work life and your personal life, actively look for a new job if your current one is making you unhappy/physically ill, actively looking for new ways to beat fatigue, anxiety, or burnout (most likely through exercise), looking into alternative forms of treatment for a health condition. By the time the 11th rolls around, you’re going to be glad that you took care of your health and making space for your free time because when fun-loving Venus enters Capricorn (your zone of romance and adventure), you’ll be in the mood for some fun. With Venus in this zone of your chart, potential mates and dates will be aplenty, while your creativity, passion, and thirst for excitement will be at an all-time high. Make sure to utilize this juicy energy to attract what you desire to you. What you want is out there, Virgo. You just need to make space for it, even if that space is in your head. On the 12th, Mercury steps into Sagittarius and into your zone of home and family. While Mercury is here, you may begin your apartment or house hunt, sign a lease or deed, or look into relocating. In terms of family, this month might also be a time when you reconnect with or spend more time with those that you love.

With the New Moon in Sagittarius joining the bevy of planets in this zone on the 29th, the second half could have some Virgos building a new home with a loved one, welcoming a child, or breaking free from a part of the past that no longer resonates. You define what home means to you.
Libra: Who’s ready for some fun and romance? It looks like you are, Libra, and it’s a good thing because the Universe has got you covered! Expect the awesomesauce to overflow beginning on November 9th when go-getter Mars moves into Aquarius, your zone of creativity, adventure, and true love. With Mars in an unconventional sign like Aquarius, your best bet for a good time is to spend time traveling the off-beaten path. Take off for somewhere you’ve never been, with someone that’s not your usual type and see what kind of magic unfolds. Even if you’re happily in a relationship, expect the sparks to fly if you bring a little spontaneity and experimentation into the picture (or bedroom). On the 11th, when Venus enters security oriented Capricorn, your zone of home and family, some of you could decide to put down roots or establish more of a foundation by moving in with a partner, starting a family, purchasing a home or signing a lease, or building a home business. With your ruling planet Venus hanging out in your home zone, your biggest mission will be to turn your living space into your sanctuary. When communicative Mercury enters Sagittarius (November 12th), expect your zone of communication and ideas to be lit. With Mercury on its home turf, the pace picks up significantly but so does your insight and sharp wit. With Mercury’s help you could come up with an idea or plan that could lead to a big payoff, so don’t be afraid to think big.

Under the influence of this moon, you could seal the deal on a major investment, pay off a debt, or put an end to an unstable or stagnant relationship.

On the 29th, a New Moon in Sagittarius also lands in your zone of communication. Use the power of this moon to establish profitable connections or to build buzz around a project you’ve been working on. It’s time to boldly go where you haven’t been before.
Scorpio: It’s all about your family and private life as the month opens, thanks to Mars moving into Aquarius (November 9th), your home zone. With action-oriented Mars in this tender zone of your chart, the Universe is asking that you be more proactive in creating a sense of sanctuary for yourself. This could mean moving or relocating to a new place, making some improvements or upgrades to your space, or setting down some better boundaries between yourself and a person (or persons) that you share a residence or property with. Since a transit like this also has a knack for bringing up old resentments or wounds, this may also be a time for you to receive some sort of therapy to help you heal issues with anger. On the 11th Venus enters Capricorn, your zone of communication. With money-loving Venus here in a money-loving sign like Capricorn, your skill set and marketability come to the forefront this month. Now’s the time to think about how you can monetize an idea you have or boost your skills/expertise in a way that can help you to command more money.

While the Sun is here, your focus will be to work on ways you block your abundance. Look to the New Moon in Sagittarius on November 29th to renew your faith in the Universe. The Universe always provides.
Sagittarius: Let’s sit down and talk for a second, Sag. Have you been avoiding saying something you really need to say because you fear being uncomfortable? When gutsy Mars enters into Aquarius (November 9th), your zone of communication, whatever has been bubbling beneath the surface will need to find its way out. You’re known around the zodiac as being one of the more tell it like it is signs but since you’re also an adaptable, go with the flow kind of sign, you can sometimes put up with things way past their due date because you don’t want things to get ugly. The thing is, sometimes you need to face/handle the ugly in order to live authentically. And Mars in Aquarius certainly doesn’t want you sticking with a system, perception, or routine that is no longer working for you. On the 11th, money-loving Venus enters money-loving Capricorn, your zone of income and possessions. With Venus in this zone of your chart (along with Pluto), she will be working to help you attract opportunities that can help you increase your cash flow. However, the trick to making more money now will not only be about how much work you put in, but it will also be about whether or not you believe that you deserve such abundance. Now’s not the time play yourself small. On the 12th, talkative Mercury enters Sagittarius which should put you in the mood to be out and about. Expect to make some promising connections with people in both business and romance. If there’s something you need to announce or share, having Mercury in your sign is a great time to do it. When a Full Moon in Taurus lands in your zone of health, work, and routine on November 14th, it could be time to move on from an unhealthy work environment or look to ways you can better nourish your body.

On the 21st, the Sun enters Sagittarius, your zone of confidence and self-image helping you to regain the fire that you may have lost along the way. When a New Moon in Sagittarius lands in this same zone on the 29th, it will be time to believe in yourself and your dreams again. You are your own master. Happy Birthday!
Capricorn: Your month comes in with a bit of a bang, thanks to passionate Mars entering Aquarius (your zone of income and possessions) on November 9th. As a result, you could suddenly find yourself hyper aware of what you have and what you don’t have. However, instead of becoming overly focused on a space of lack, look to new ways that you can actively increase your income. Hint: it may be doing something that’s considered non-traditional or different from your normal. Either way, the money you make now will depend on your ability to be more assertive about your self-worth and what you truly deserve. In other words, this is not a time for settling. One caveat to this transit though: a spike in unexpected expenses. Have some reserves at the ready. On the 11th, when charming Venus enters Capricorn, your zone of confidence and self-image, prepare to wow and be wowed. With Venus at your front door, she will be helping you to amplify your magnetism; bringing you some enjoyably provocative encounters with others. On the 12th, curious Mercury enters Sagittarius and steps into your zone of rest, healing, and retreat. While Mercury is here: turn off the phone, take a social media cleanse or break, meditate, talk with a therapist or healer, or get in some quiet reading/study time. The point is to give your brain a break. When the Full Moon in Taurus lands in your zone of love, creativity, and adventure on November 14th, you could experience a revelation that could help you to figure out how to bring more fun into your life, end a romance or take a romance to a deeper level, or take a risk on a creative endeavor. Overall, the theme of this moon is to help you make passion your mantra. On the 21st, the Sun steps into Sagittarius, joining Mercury and Saturn in your zone of retreat. This means that over the next few weeks, your source of light and warmth will come by laying low and working behind the scenes. Since this area of your chart also handles your spiritual well-being, it will be important for you to do things now that feed your soul to alleviate anxiety, depression, or burnout. On the 29th, a New Moon in Sagittarius can help you with making a clean break from what is no longer working in your life.
Aquarius: Nothing moves unless you say it does for most of this month, and that’s because you’ll have iron-willed Mars on your side beginning on November 9th. With Mars in Aquarius, your zone of confidence and self-image, look to become very intentional about what you want, because Mars will be giving you the focus, extra energy, and the take no prisoners attitude to get it. Also, since Mars is a very physical kind of planet, consider its trip through your sign the perfect time to work off any extra steam by doing something that gets you hot and sweaty. If a better body is what you’re after, Mars could also lend you the discipline needed to make it happen. On the 11th, pleasure-loving Venus enters Capricorn, your zone of rest, retreat, and healing. While Mars will have you fired up for most of the month, tap Venus in Capricorn’ sensual power to help you unwind and decompress with soothing music, bodywork, visual art, or the caress/company of a treasured lover. On the 12th, when communicative Mercury enters Sagittarius, your zone of friendship and future plans, it’s time to capitalize on the professional reputation that you’ve been building for yourself.

With you juggling so many things now, you should have people in your life whom you can lean on when you need to. If this isn’t the case, the New Moon in Sagittarius on the 29th marks the perfect time to search out a new tribe.
Pisces: The month opens up a bit slowly thanks to action-oriented Mars entering Aquarius (November 9th) and stepping into your zone of rest, healing, and retreat. Since this zone is not a comfortable place for Mars to be, you’ll have to use Mars in Aquarius’ power to be proactive in finding new (and possibly nontraditional) ways to feed and nourish your soul. With pent up anger being one of the side effects of this transit, this could be the perfect time to start therapy. By the 11th, when pleasure loving Venus moves into Capricorn, you may feel caught between wanting to stay home and wanting to be social. However, don’t feel daunted. With Venus in sensible Capricorn, your source of good vibes and abundance will come by sticking to events/outings that allow for professional networking and kicking back with a few longtime friends. Think quality vs. quantity now. On the 12th, communicative Mercury steps into Sagittarius, your zone of fame, career, and achievement. With Mercury’s help, it’s time for you to take some big, yet calculated risks when it comes to your professional goals. Working for yourself, launching a career changing project, getting media attention, or being taken under the wing of someone big in your field are all possibilities that could happen. The Full Moon in Taurus on November 14th, should help you to decide what direction you want to head in as it lights up your zone of perception and communication.
