Hello September!
The first week of September opens up with a bang! My YouTube video newsletters share more highlights and information, however for those that are unable to listen, I am outlining the September Astrology for your calendars and also the three big movements happening before the first eclipse on Sunday September 7th.
My video goes more in depth about the dates of 9/1 for Saturn reentering Pisces, 9/2 Mercury entering Virgo, and lastly 9/6 Uranus turns retrograde in Gemini.
September Astrology:
9/1 - Saturn is currently retrograde and moves back into the sign of Pisces on this date. Saturn is the planet of discipline, lessons, and tradition and holds the keys to karmic cycles and time. It originally entered Pisces in March 2023, then made it's way into Aries in May 2025. What karmic cycle is returning for you to wrap up as it finishes it's journey in Pisces through February 14th, when it reenters Aries?
9/2 Mercury enters Virgo, this planet feels at home here because it rules Virgo. This placement adds an edge of discernment through both eclipses in September, helps refine our thoughts and express ourselves with clarity.
9/6 Uranus turns retrograde in Gemini, oh this planet is always adding in a bit of surprise to shake things up! Right before an eclipse seems a bit unfair, but stay vigilant and stay grounded in your practice of ritual. Especially when it comes to your nervous system. More information will be coming your way that you expect. Right before an eclipse, so steady yourself to stay in your integrity and anchor into your authenticity.
9/7 Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (full moon) - an illumination for healing, something down deep in your soul wants to emerge and be brough tot he surface. No more hiding, no more secrecy, it needs to be seen. Will it altar the course of your life? Eclipses tend to do that, some years are more intense than others. The new direction may not be clear until the next new moon eclipse on Sunday 9/21
9/13 Sun Conjunct Mercury in Virgo - a cazimi! I love this kind of day, it is a magical day of divination. Tap into the powers of the Universe and call in your Spirit guides because today is the day of powerful messages. This is one of the clearest days of thinking you will have, ask the question and the answer will come.
9/18 Mercury enters Libra - the planet of communication wants beauty and balance and harmony and you can achieve this through your lines of connection to others and your self.
9/19 Venus enters Virgo - love is more structured and looking for efficiency at this time, it was clarity of purpose in the relationship. What are you sacrificing for the the comfort of others? Do not abandon your self for the sake of love from someone that can not love you or even themselves. There is a reckoning here, but remember to keep in check perfectionism, no relationship is perfect.
9/20 Yay my Birthday! :) or is it yikes? Birthdays around eclipse make me nervous LOL
9/21 Solar Eclipse in Virgo (new moon) - here we are back to another Virgo new moon. the first one was on August 23rd at 0 degrees. the cycles continues but with more purpose, more discernment, and a better understanding of one's self. A commitment to the process, the ritual, the sacred.
9/22 Fall Equinox as the Sun enters Libra! A change of seasons for the Earth, but also for your life. We need some balance after all the turbulence the eclipses have sewn into our life the last month. This is the time to do just that, shed what no longer serves and keep what works.
9/22 Mars into Scorpio - Mars the planet of passion, energy, action, and anger loves being in Scorpio because it co-rules this sign with Pluto. Energy will increase, but also a fiery passion within. This is the time to burn away the old and dig deep into what really lights you up to accomplish those goals. Channel anger and frustration into a more positive energy activity like working out, writing, yelling into the void, etc
9/23 Sun in Libra Opposite Neptune in Aries - this yearly cycle helps bring us back to our daydreams and imagination. A lovely day for contemplation and healing. A much needed reprieve from the upheaval.
