Venus in Libra
Saturday, August 30, 7:42 am PDT, 10:42 am PDT
The love planet's entry into her airy home sign sweetens life with kindness and a greater appreciation for beauty and harmony. Compromise feels more natural now, enabling smoother connections with others. It is not wrong to meet someone halfway when we recognize that relationship exists in the common space of our mutual needs and interests.
New Moon in Virgo
Saturday, August 30, 12:58 pm PDT, 3:58 pm EDT
The New Moon in practical and detail-oriented Virgo is a great time to start healthy new habits. The focus and dedication of this sign are underscored by the New Moon's conjunction with disciplined Saturn. Patterns established now can endure for a long time, so it's vital to turn negative thinking into positive action. Don't let the size of obstacles deter you from advancing your interests as patient Saturn and pragmatic Virgo are an excellent combination for producing slow and steady progress that can reshape your life one small step at a time.
Jupiter Direct
Sunday, September 7, 9:16 pm PDT, Monday, September 8, 12:16 am EDT
The forward shift of the planet of optimism and vision after four months in retrograde allows hopes that have been incubating in hearts and minds to come out and show themselves to the world. This is no mere philosophical exercise with Jupiter in industrious Capricorn but the expression of concrete goals.
Jupiter trine Saturn
Monday, September 8, 4:24 pm PDT, 7:24 pm EDT
This creative alignment of the planets of expansion and contraction provides an ideal balance between aspirations for tomorrow and a clear assessment of today. It serves long-range planning for major projects, social movements and professional ambitions. This aspect first occurred on January 21 and will return again on November 21 in the no-nonsense earth signs of Capricorn and Virgo where maturity and patience merge with a realistic vision to make a blueprint for the future.
Pluto Direct
Monday, September 8
The most secretive planet is creeping out of its underworld lair to bring issues of power and desire into public view. Dramatic events are unlikely to emerge immediately, but those needs and fears that have been hiding in the shadows will soon be out in the open so they can become agents of personal and collective transformation.
Full Moon in Pisces
Monday, September 15, 2:13 am PDT, 5:13 am EDT
The narrow path of order and control set by stern Saturn at the New Moon in Virgo is about to be washed away by the Full Moon in boundless Pisces. These oceanic tides are far from gentle as chaotic Uranus joins the Moon to bring waves of dramatic events and feelings crashing on the shore. It is a time to liberate ourselves from rigid patterns and outmoded rules to ride the wild surf of freedom and self-discovery. The human form is changing and you can choose the despair of holding onto the past or the excitement of creating the future.
Sun in Libra
Monday, September 22, 8:45 am PDT, 11:45 am EDT
No sign is a better bridge than Libra, which understands the duality of life upon which we are balanced. Its openness to conflicting points of view is an ideal intermediary between what once was and what will be. Relationships may shift as they are weighed at the Equinox, one of the four major turning points of the year. Diplomatic Libra, though, seeks harmony, so even if truth shakes a partnership, dialogue can lead away from battle and toward accommodation.
Venus in Scorpio
Tuesday, September 23, 7:59 pm PDT, 10:59 pm EDT
The colors of love turn darker and deeper with Venus in profound and potent Scorpio. Needs are not negotiable, in spite of the Sun in Libra's penchant for putting smiley faces on failing enterprises. Still, the mysterious side of Scorpio can stoke desires that will simmer below the surface until pressure forces them to rise or nature allows them to fade away. Others' feelings may not be obvious now, yet if you care enough for someone, finding the courage to inquire can enrich a relationship.
Mercury Retrograde
Wednesday, September 24
The Messenger's backward turn in ambivalent Libra makes it tricky to get straight answers from others or make up your own mind. Three weeks of hemming and hawing can be difficult for action-oriented individuals, yet in this polite dancing around issues we can develop more sophisticated radar for reading between the lines. What we see may not be what we get, so we are challenged to look more carefully to find the truth.
It is rare to have this much contrast between the seminal New Moon and the fruit bearing Full Moon. The former is starched by Saturn and the latter blasted by Uranus. Rigid systems of control are ripe for revolution; excessive order gives way to utter chaos. Yet, the perfect choreography is to build a firm base with training and discipline that supplies a safe place to land for our spontaneous leaps of discovery.Have a great month!
