Week of Wednesday the 17th of September -Tuesday the 23rd 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 20) – The Moon, at its last quarter, is shrinking in light; your focus begins to switch from what has been to what will be. Confusion can come in over the weekend as Mars squares Neptune. If you are working in film, on a very creative image rich work, or if you are working on elevating suffering, your work will go well. If none of the above you can feel as if you are in a fog. Monday night a sea change occurs as the Sun enters Libra and planet Pluto stations. You will begin to get noticed.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 21) – Expect to be slightly disturbed as the week begins, liking stability instead of upset. But there is a bee in your bonnet when it comes to someone “going postal” on you. Someone just being who they are doesn’t mean they will not stand by you in the end. Better wait until Sunday to decide anything. 

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21) –Mercury has now entered its “shadow period” that is the time on either side of the actual 3 week retrograde period where ideas get reviewed. The illumination, brainstorm or new creative idea you had last week has staying power and will continue to haunt you these next few weeks. It might concern a new way of relating to your children-wanting to treat them more as an equal or a new artistic endeavor. Your creative side benefits from having someone to talk to about it. 

CANCER (Jun 21-Jul 20) – The week begins with you feeling provoked- with feelings of powerlessness and wanting to break free. There might be a personal need to break some bad habits which would be the good side. The Moon is in your sign since 11:24 AM yesterday always increasing and sensitizing your emotional intelligence. When it changes into Leo late Thursday night the mood will shift. Do not be discouraged or depressed Saturday afternoon. We are in the waning Moon/Sun cycle just before the New Moon. Assimilate and integrate what has gone on before, rather than initiate would be your m.o.

LEO (Jul 20-Aug 21) – Friday sees the Moon in your sign and conjunct the planet of luck, success, faith and optimism in the middle of the night. Try to remember your dreams Friday night. You might be called to ratchet up your ever generous nature. The Sun, your ruler, moves into Libra 10:30 PM Monday the 22nd as we hit the Autumnal Equinox; days and nights are of equal length. Forget the last month’s efforts to increase your resources. Now you need to focus on building more community around you, including siblings, or taking on a new study course, or renewed focus on expressing your ideas.

VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept 22) – After the Full Moon in your sign has brought to light either the reality of continuing with more needless suffering, or you have decided to take the higher path and go for healing an awkward situation. These days you are either still involved in a caretaking situation of one in great need, or with a musician, artist or healer-one who can transcend the misery all around. Mercury is in your second house of resources and earned income and will be for the month ahead. The Sun joins Mercury Monday night at the Autumnal Equinox. Focus on gaining something for yourself, material or otherwise. Join forces.

LIBRA (Sep 22-Oct 20) – Expect some disruption as the week begins when stability in relationship is hard to come by. Better for you Sunday when Venus your ruler meets Saturn, in a nice way. Whatever quirkiness happened earlier in the week, can get smoothed out. The Sun enters your sign Monday night at the Autumnal Equinox. Come out of the closet a bit. Mercury and the North Node in your sign makes you very level headed these days, much the conciliator and diplomat.  

SCORPIO (Oct 20-Nov 21) – Saturn is still in your sign until Christmas, but Mars has moved out, thank goodness. You have energy again for material gain. You might not be seeing a relationship or connection that will help you move forward. You will have time in the next month to see and find someone in places that you do not normally go to or find yourself in. Why are relationships so hard?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 21-Dec 21) – Mars in your sign now, is swiftly moving to form a triangle in the sky with the abundant Jupiter in ego satisfying Leo and Uranus the quickener and enlightener in Aries.  This grand trine in fire will light up your love life, your educational life and/or your travel plans. Feel the pressure and excitement build as the week and month progresses.

CAPRICORN (Dec 21-Jan 20) – Saturn is picking up speed now so you should be feeling that the affairs in your life are doing likewise. Saturn is about your outer reality, what it looks like; at the same time it is also about your inner character. Character is destiny. Saturn rules the bones in your body, your teeth and skeletal structure. It is what we learn to stand up on as a toddler and identify with as we age and have a consistent yoga practice. Saturn defines and helps you take responsibility for who you are. Define your goals, hopes and wishes.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 19) – Saturn is in your 10th house of career and reputation, helping you define and realize what that looks like. If things have gone as far as they can face the music and look for another road.  This week we are into the waning portion of the Moon cycle. Integrate what has gone on before and recognize what you want to keep and bring forward and what or who you have outgrown. 

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 21) – Since the Full Moon on the 8th you must have been experiencing a whole range of feelings from confusion, loneliness and despair to a renewed sense of the ultimate power and resourcefulness of the source of all creativity and life. Your job as the wisest of all the signs is to live from that place where all is possible; sure of the truth that the universe rearranges itself to accommodate your picture of reality. The readjustments you have to make this week in your daily habits will pay off.
