Happy birthday, Virgo! It’s still your season, so focus on yourself! The next few weeks encourage you to follow your heart. It’s not selfish to focus on goals and projects that excite you. Go ahead and put yourself first! You may want to experiment with your sense of style, take on a new role or responsibility, or just feel a boost of confidence!
A new idea emerges at the start of the month on September 1 when Uranus Retrograde begins in Taurus. You’re seeing a situation with a new perspective and considering alternative approaches. You’re feeling open-minded and curious, and you may consider pursing something new, even if it feels odd or random to someone else. On the same day, Pluto Retrograde re-enters Capricorn and you’re fighting against the urge to play small and hide your talent. The next few months take you on a journey of owning your power and sharing your light and gifts with others. You deserve to take up space—there is enough room for everyone!
A New Moon in your sign on September 2 is your yearly reset! You’re ready to ditch old versions of yourself and ignore what other people expect of you. This is a moment to sink deeper into your own authenticity and express yourself fully. You could make fresh plans for yourself or commit to a new ambitious goal. You’re laser-focused on one of your goals when Mars enters Cancer on September 4. The next few weeks give you the inspiration necessary to take a leap of faith and believe in yourself and your ideas. You could also be busy networking and mingling with people who are invested in your ideas. Mars is a planet of frustration, so there can be a bit more tension that pops up in your collaborative projects and relationships, too.
Standing up for yourself isn’t the most comfortable, but it’s necessary on September 7 when the Sun in Virgo locks eyes with Saturn in Pisces. This is a moment to advocate for your needs in your close relationships, especially if you’ve been putting others first. You could have more serious discussions exploring the future and your expectations of one another, too. It may be time to part ways. Mercury, the planet of communication, enters Virgo on September 8, bringing important news your way. Information you learn today affects you on a personal level. You’re coming up with ideas and making plans to bring some of your dreams to life! Pay day arrives on September 14 when Venus in Libra mingles with Jupiter in Gemini. You could get a promotion, raise, or even a new job. You’re feeling self-assured and confident in your skills, and people are noticing. Your hard work is finally paying off!
The Full Moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 17 brings a major change to your close relationships. As one relationship ends, another may begin. People who enter and exit your life around this time are fated to do so. You could wrap up a contract or reach a milestone with a personal goal. Whatever unfolds, you’re learning to surrender to the natural ebbs and flows.
The Sun enters Libra and the fall equinox takes place on September 22. For the next few weeks, you’re focused on your finances and sense of security. You could be putting in some overtime at work or maybe you’re applying for new opportunities. This is an aligned time to advocate for your worth and negotiate a raise or bonus. On the same day, Venus in Libra bumps into Pluto in Capricorn, which can stir up a scarcity mindset. You could move through feelings of jealousy or struggle with obsessive thoughts. Later in the day, Venus, the planet of connection, enters Scorpio. Over the next few weeks, you might spend more time with BFFs and siblings or even book some weekend travel. This is a busy time for your mind—you’re coming up with new ideas, sharing your feelings with others, and learning hopeful news. You may feel the urge to sign up for a class or pick up a niche hobby.
Mercury, the planet of the mind, enters Libra on September 26, and you’re thinking about your financial situation. This is the right time to have conversations about your salary, rework your budget, come up with a plan to help you establish financial security. You may consider alternative ways to support yourself or invest some of your time into learning a skill that you can apply to your work or profession. The month ends with the Sun in Libra meeting with Mercury in Libra on September 30. You could finish a negotiation regarding a raise or new contract, have a moment of clarity regarding budget, or get back on track with your savings. This is also a lovely time to treat yourself—you’ve worked so hard to get where you are!
