Happy September!
September begins in a fog of murkiness and confusion. For the first few days of the month, Mars is opposingNeptune, and we could feel out of control. Clarity returns when Mercury trines Saturn the following week, just before a Virgo New Moon, reeling in our wild minds while restoring pragmatism and precision.
Meanwhile, love is tested this month. While Virgo is officially in command, there are many planets in Libra. Our gazes are lifting from our own personal journeys toward our relationships with others. We're ready for big breakthroughs in our friendships and love lives that first require hard work and deep reflection.
Mercury is preparing to station retrograde at the end of September, also in Libra. We're learning to get along, find common ground, and work with each other with greater harmony and equilibrium.
With multiple planets in retrograde, this isn’t the month for dramatic leaps onto new trajectories. We’re taking our time to integrate and assess our current paths and dilemmas.
Mid-month, the Sun opposes Neptune, just before a Pisces Full Moon—both submerging us into uncertainty once more. This time, we can remember to let go. We can relax and enjoy the ride, making art and music, trusting that the waves will carry us exactly where we need to go.
With Mars and Venus now in mutual reception, balance is key. We are learning how to stay strong yet tender, taking leaps into the unknown as we reconnect with ancient feelings of love, intimacy, and acceptance.

september SUMMARY
September is marked by confusion and uncertainty as Neptune opposes Mars and the Sun, weakening our confidence and clear vision. Luckily, the Virgo New Moon helps us rein in our minds, restoring sanity, practicality, and control. With all of the outer planets in retrograde and Mercury soon to join, we could feel a little frustrated. We have more work to do internally before we bound ahead onto new paths. It’s time to reflect upon our biggest quandaries, within ourselves, our relationships, and the world at large. We can dream big, generate new ideas, and trust that the Universe has our best interests at heart—that we can manifest our hopes if we surrender our arrogance and release our grasping. Love is a big topic this month as the Saturn-Uranus square sandpapers Venus, testing our relationships, while calling into question our values and handling of resources. Shock and change could help us find relief from long-standing ruts, but we have to be careful not to be too impulsive. Patience is key, especially as Mercury stations retrograde at the end of the month. We could now find better balance in our minds and speech as we mend old quarrels, and communicate with more kindness, acceptance, and room for paradox. With so many planets in Libra this month, the message is clear: Don’t panic. Be more spacious. Default to kindness. And let’s go easy on each other as we continue to stumble through an unfamiliar world. We can slow down as we undergo this longterm process of healing and reinvention that’s leading us into a wild, yet beautiful unknown. We might remember that if we love each other unconditionally, our world is precious and full of richness, no matter what.
SEPTEMBER ASPIRATION
As the evening air begins to cool, may we breathe easy and relax, listening more, allowing for silence, and healing divisions when we can. May we trust that the tides of change are carrying us to the perfect place, even when the fog is too thick for us to see.
