Week of Wednesday the 10th of September -Tuesday the 16th of September

Read your rising sign if you know it; or any other sign, as each of us has Aries, Taurus etc. someplace in our charts governing some aspect of our lives.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 21) – Coming off the Full Moon, which always brings some sense of relief, you have the Moon in your sign until tomorrow, Thursday night. Use the time to take the initiative as you are good at starting things. Mars your ruler changes signs and moves into Sagittarius Saturday around 6:00 PM. Your focus will shift; aim high and go for it. The money troubles should be over.

TAURUS (Apr 21-May 20) – Venus your ruler has moved opposite the planet of love and dreaminess Neptune today. Your sense of things can be cloudy or you are feeling in love with love? This can be inspiring though and sensitize you too beauty and its effect in your body. The Moon is in your sign starting Thursday night through pre dawn Sunday. What do you want and need?  The love gods are with you Sunday.

GEMINI (May 20-Jun 21) – Coming off the Full Moon this week, Mercury is busy meeting Pluto last night, Jupiter today, and Uranus Saturday. You are supposed to be thinking about having fun with or without the children, but you might have to do some mental gymnastics; going from some level of mistrust and feelings that someone is keeping a secret, to being able to communicate about it, to having a sudden illumination over the weekend. You will come back to this perspective again.

CANCER (Jun 21-Jul 21) – As the week begins we are coming off the Full Moon (which must make all Cancers exhausted), and you might be feeling that your independence no longer serves you. Perhaps you are beginning to understand that your growth now comes from entering into a partnership, or at least the realization is dawning of the need to have someone to talk to. This might mean living with someone else for the first time, just changing housemates so the social aspect improves, or even going back home for a spell. 

LEO (Jul 21-Aug 20) – Leos are made for the sunshine. The Sun has peaked in the sky; the Full Moon has peaked and we are in the winding down part of the yearly cycle. But with Jupiter in your sign now expansion, luck and optimism are forthcoming for you. Expect some stability, confidence and a clear sense of purpose Thursday, tomorrow, and for a few days after.

VIRGO (Aug 20-Sep 21) – The Full Harvest Moon was Monday night and the after effects continue for a few days as this week begins. If you got worried last night or suspicious keep positive thoughts. The way things seem is not always the way things are. Do not be too quick to act on Thursday, or get upset by someone acting erratically Saturday or be tempted to say something outrageous. After the weekend find an elder to talk to about it. With Venus in your sign you can be a peacemaker.

LIBRA (Sep 21-Oct 20) – Until the Sun apparently leaves Virgo and moves into your sign on the 22nd, you might feel unnecessarily burdened; that there is just too much criticism around for your comfort. Planet Mercury, which is in your sign already, and will stay here for the next few months (except for 2 weeks), will help you get a grip on anything out of balance in your life. Use the time to compare and contrast; watch any decision you make (not your strong suit). Perhaps what you decide this week will have to be recommitted to around October 25th. 

SCORPIO (Oct 20-Nov 22) – As the week begins and the Full Moon wanes, Mars your ruler will then change signs Saturday evening, moving out of intense Scorpio where it met Saturn, the Lord of Karma and into your 2nd house of earned income and values. The current very intense pressure will subside. Energy can now be focused on more practical matters. Be careful about getting into an argument Thursday evening and Sunday take the activity into a yoga class or outdoor sport.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21) – Planet Mars moves into your sign around 6:00PM Saturday evening. You will be full of get up and go. Impulsive, enthusiastic, exploratory, frank, spontaneous, restless, sporty, argumentative and fitful methods, energies and attitudes will accompany this time through October. Even more so as Jupiter also is in a fire sign. Be careful of getting burned or burning yourself out.

CAPRICORN (Dec 21-Jan 20) – With the Full Moon past you will feel more stable and secure tomorrow, Thursday as the Sun and your ruler Saturn connect. Anything started this week has a good chance of continuing into the future, important to you. No point in working hard if it all is going to dissolve quickly. This might concern a new promotional idea that will bring you residual income, something else important to you.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 19) – Saturn you ruler is at the top of your chart. Perhaps you feel at the end of a road, that you have achieved all that you can in your current role and that there is no place else to go. If you have any institutional memory left you might look back 29-30 years ago to the fall of 1984, when you were here before. This is one of the planetary cycles of life-or the wheel of fortune, going up and coming down which happens to all of us.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 21) – After the Full Moon has passed and all the hurts and feelings of abandonment it brought with it have subsided you can look forward. Mars will move into your 10th house of career and reputation around 6:00 PM on Saturday, stimulating this area of life. If you have a visible career, that is you are seen by the public, then you ought to be careful these next 6 weeks that you do not upset the apple cart too much. Or if you cannot help it, take it on faith that it was necessary and right. Principles, a moral code to live by, regardless of financial consequences, is sorely lacking in today’s world.
