September is a month brimming with cosmic activity, bringing about profound shifts and opportunities for transformation. As we move into the heart of the eclipse season, those of us with mutable signs—Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, and Sagittarius—will feel the impact of these celestial events more intensely.
We kick off the month with Uranus continuing its retrograde in Taurus, encouraging us to rethink our approach to stability, finances, and personal values. This retrograde energy is a call to innovate and adapt, even as unexpected changes may challenge our sense of security. Pluto also retrogrades back into Aquarius, revisiting themes of power dynamics and societal transformation. This shift offers a chance to resolve lingering issues, allowing for deep healing and regeneration.
On September 3rd, the New Moon in Virgo at 11°03’ invites us to initiate new routines, particularly around health and wellness. Virgo's meticulous energy is perfect for focusing on organization and service, but with Saturn and Neptune opposing from Pisces, we may face delays or confusion. While our intentions are strong, the path forward could be unclear, signaling that patience and perseverance will be necessary.
The celestial activity continues with Venus conjunct Lilith in Libra on September 4th, a powerful alignment that may bring intense and transformative experiences in relationships. Mars enters Cancer later that day, shifting our drive towards home and emotional security, making us more protective and nurturing in our actions.
By September 9th, Mercury’s entrance into Virgo sharpens our mental focus, making it an ideal time for planning and organizing. The energy intensifies mid-month as Jupiter in Gemini forms a harmonious trine with Venus in Libra on September 14th and 15th. This beautiful aspect brings opportunities for love, luck, and financial gain, making it the perfect time for socializing and indulging in romantic or creative pursuits.
September’s big event is the Full Moon Partial Lunar Eclipse in Pisces on September 18th. This powerful eclipse, part of Saros Series 118, is conjunct Neptune and forms a loose kite formation with retrograde Pluto in Capricorn and Uranus in Taurus. This alignment highlights the Virgo area of our lives, urging us to make significant changes. Reflect on the themes from the last Partial Lunar Eclipse in Pisces on September 7, 2006, and the Lunar Eclipse on August 27, 1988, as similar patterns may reemerge now. While the North Node’s position slightly diminishes the eclipse’s strength, the involvement of Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto gives this lunation considerable power. If you have personal planets around 25° of the mutable signs, expect significant shifts, signaling both an ending and a new beginning in your life.
As the Sun enters Libra on September 22nd, marking the Equinox, we are reminded to seek balance and harmony in our lives. This transition emphasizes relationships, diplomacy, and the pursuit of fairness. Venus’s move into Scorpio on September 23rd intensifies our passions, deepening emotional connections and transforming experiences in love and finances.
The month concludes with Mercury entering Libra on September 26th, enhancing our communication skills, and the Sun conjunct Mercury on September 30th, bringing clarity to our thoughts and conversations. This is a powerful time for discussions, writing, and intellectual pursuits.
September is not just a transitional month; it’s a period of profound growth and change. As we navigate the eclipse season and the accompanying planetary shifts, it’s essential to reflect on the past, embrace the present, and prepare for the new beginnings that these celestial events herald.
