Watch or Read Below your Astro-forecast for September
Phew! September has arrived and it is hard to believe we only have four months left in 2022. It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating the new year! Last month we had a massive conjunction and it delivered. We saw fires, riots and extreme weather around the world. In the US we are still seeing the effects of Rahu and Uranus still being in conjunction. There has been extreme flooding in Kentucky, Las Vegas and Phoenix. Alaska had some snow already! The weather is likely to continue to be extreme as Rahu and Uranus are still in conjunction, although they are beginning to separate. We are in full retrograde season with Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto all moving backward. This is really a time to reflect, review and readjust as needed to get ready for when the planets turn direct over the next few months. We are adding Mercury retrograde to the mix beginning on September 9. It will remain retrograde until October 2. Mercury will be retrograde this time in its sign of exaltation Virgo. This can be a positive but it can also magnify the need to ensure that communication is clear and understood by all parties. The potential for travel delays will increase as it always does during Mercury retrograde. Mars entered Taurus on August 10 and will be here until October 15 when it moves into Gemini for a brief stay before retrograding back into Taurus for a long stay. Mars in Taurus can bring a lot of passion, this can go both directions so just keep an eye that it doesn’t go extreme. During this transit be sure to keep your spending in check as it could get out of control. Venus entered Leo on August 31st and will be here until September 24. This can be a time of strong feelings and an enjoyment of luxury and the finer things in life. It has the potential to make people more persuasive. Venus will enter Virgo, its weakest transit on September 24. Now it will be transiting with Mercury this year which will help uplift the energy. The Sun is transiting in Leo, its own sign, until September 16 when it will move into Virgo. The Sun will be in Virgo until October 17. During the Suns transit of Virgo people can feel like they need to work harder, there can be a sense of service in the air too. People need to be careful during this transit not to set expectations too high.
To get a high-level sense of what September 2022 will bring for you look below for your Ascendant or Moon sign. (or both!)
Aries – This month you need to ensure that you are staying in the present and paying attention to the thoughts running through your head that you then verbalize to others. You can come across as more aggressive in your tone and approach to conversations so it will be important that you identify your audience to ensure you don’t put your foot in your mouth. Relationship wise you can find yourself in a new relationship if you have been single or if you are in a relationship, you may find the need to spice things up again. Don’t be shy and don’t delay. Pay attention to the food you are putting in your mouth as you may get lazy and order in or eat out more than you should. Make the time to cook healthy meals (and make enough for leftovers so they are easier to grab!)
Taurus – You will find yourself moving more quickly this month but also with a greater sense of motivation and ambition. Harness this time to accomplish the goals you have on your list and even take the time to reassess and set some new goals if the current ones don’t resonate anymore. With the ability to move more quickly this month comes a higher need to be cautious as you can be more accident prone, especially as it relates to your head and potential for bruises and burns. It will be important to keep your temper in check so go into this month knowing that you will need to put your patience pants on. You can find opportunities coming your way and may find a raise or promotion in your future.
Gemini – Get that budget out and check in on how well you are sticking to the guidelines you set. Have you gone a little crazy and splurged on things that weren’t necessary? If yes, that is ok but take the time to get back on track. You can find yourself more easily frustrated this month so it will be good to give yourself time to reset and get your emotions back to a clear glass so that you don’t take your anger out on others or respond in a way you later regret. You should put yourself out there at work as the planets are working in your favor to help you get noticed which can, if you desire, help you get that promotion or increased responsibility you have been longing for. Take time out of the busyness to have some fun whether it be going out to eat, a concert, a movie, the theater (as long as it’s in your budget) or even a fun game night with friends which would save money.
Cancer – Be sure to keep your eyes and ears open to those around you and those talking with you as they may present opportunities that can help move you to the next level. Even if the ideas sound out of touch with reality take the time to consider them as they may be just what you need or may trigger another idea in your mind that is even better. You are in a lucky period where things may just seem to go your way and you don’t know why…enjoy it! But be sure that you are still showing up and taking action so the universe doesn’t think you are taking advantage of it. Make sure you are maintaining a high moral code and that you don’t change your views just to fit in. It is a time when your mind can be a powerful tool of manifestation so be sure you “take the trash out” so to speak of any negative thoughts that aren’t serving you.
Leo – This is the month to take the time to sit down and really be honest with yourself. Write down all that you want, the goals you want to accomplish and any changes you want to make. Have you been feeling ready for a change at work? Or are you still all in and just trying to figure out what your true career goals are? If you have been contemplating asking for a raise this could be a good time to do so but be sure the company is in a place to even be open to it before having the conversation. It is critical for you to take the time for you and your health. This includes not only your physical health but also your mental, emotional and spiritual health as well. As the latter tend to be the ones that get left out too easily.
Virgo – Have you been saying the last few months that you need to start meditating or focusing more on your spiritual practice? Well, if you have, guess what this month the energy will be begging you to do just that. If you already have a solid practice this can be a great time to add in a new component or check in and see if anything isn’t flowing the way you want. It can be a period of luck for you and you may find yourself more inspired. Harness this energy and don’t let it pass you by! You will need to stay alert as you can find yourself in disputes or confrontations with authority figures. If you have a desire to dig deeper in your field of knowledge this can be a great month to do just that which can help your career and business in the future. Be sure when you make a commitment that you don’t let it fall through the cracks.
Libra – This is the month to grab the research bull by the horns and dive into the subject that has piqued your interest. Spend the time reading, listening and taking classes that will help you to really better understand the topic at levels you may have only dreamed of. Keep a piece of paper and pen nearby so that you can capture the ideas that float through your head. You never know which will be the one! If you have been focusing on others, including pets’ well-being this is the month to take the time and put yourself first. If you let your health go you will not be able to help anyone else. This includes ensuring that you are not overworking, you are getting fresh air and healthy food. It can be a great month to get a massage or acupuncture and if you have never had it then it’s a perfect time to try it out!
Scorpio – You can be more prone to conflicts, disputes and heated arguments this month so be sure that you take the time to breathe deeply and go into all interactions from a calm state of mind. Weigh your words before speaking and evaluate if it is even worth speaking up and picking that fight or if it would be more beneficial to just let it go. If there are any legal documents that you are set to sign or will be signing take the time to read the fine print and get a second opinion to ensure you don’t miss any important nuances. Make that call to your financial advisor that you have been procrastinating on as it is a great month to get a “weather” report so to speak on your portfolio. Don’t be the ostrich that sticks its head in the sand. If you get the opportunity to receive a fresh perspective at work take it and see where it leads you.
Sagittarius – This is a month to ensure that you are providing a high level of customer care. This includes the internal customers of business that many forget are the customer. Ensure commitments are being fulfilled so that everyone gets high marks. You have a higher potential to get into office conflicts this month. Really think through if they are worth the fight or if you should let it go and take the high road. Be sure to set a budget for the month and stick to it. This may include putting your credit card in the freezer but do what you must to avoid burying yourself in debt this month. Take opportunities to learn new skills or information that could help you move up in your career. This is the time so don’t waste it or your future could be different.
Capricorn – Your communication skills can really help you this month and they will be extremely strong. Be sure to use them for good. Be sure you don’t let yourself get lazy as the more you put yourself out there and put more effort into those things that support you the more you are setting yourself up for future wins. Be sure that you are double and triple checking all communication that is leaving your phone, computer or desk especially if it is written. There can be greater potential for misunderstandings in terms of tone and what you actually expect as an outcome. Be sure that you really enjoy the present and enjoy everything that you have accomplished so far in life. It is sometimes easy to get so focused on the future we forget to enjoy what we have in the present and that is what you need to remember this month.
Aquarius – Breathe in….Breathe out….Breathe in….Breathe out….now keep ensuring that you are doing this all month. You can find tensions at home are higher and more stressful putting a strain on relationships with both spouses and family. This is not a time to make rash decisions but really try to objectively work through issues. It can be a good time to think about your future ambitions and plans especially as it relates to work. It could even be beneficial to have a conversation with your boss to make sure you are on the same page. You can be more accident prone this month so be sure that you aren’t texting and driving or walking for that matter. If any electrical problems surface don’t delay in getting them checked out.
Pisces – The important thing for you to keep in mind this month is to not isolate yourself in your home. Get out and talk with others, hang out with friends, have work meetings in person. Communication will be important for you. Make sure that you are using kind words and not getting aggressive with your communication style as that will be easy to slip into during this period. It will be important as well to ensure that you are getting a healthy meal and making time to sit down to eat. Get your exercise in daily whether it be a simple walk, a hike, a bike ride, a good yoga session or weight lifting. You will find yourself optimistic and cheerful and are also in a great period to promote yourself. Be sure that you are not overtaking the lime-light but also not staying in the shadows. Make sure that you don’t get lazy by letting optimism take over. Make a to-do list to keep track of all your responsibilities so you don’t let them slip through the cracks.
