The Month of September from an Astrological view: 

In astrology, September is primarily ruled by the sign of Virgo. September is an important month for the Zodiac and the Earth as it represents cosmic movement into the cardinal energy of Libra, the changing of the earthly and heavenly seasons. 

September will begin with the Sun rising in the sign of Virgo. The Sun entered Virgo on August 23, 2019 and it will remain here until it moves into Libra on September 23, 2019. While the Sun is rising in Virgo it will not be alone. Mercury, Venus, and Mars will all be in Virgo for the first few weeks of September, however, Mars will remain in Virgo until October. 

With Mercury and Venus both in Virgo until September 14, 2019, our relationships and communication patterns will be more practical and “critical” than usual. During this transit we are more likely to question everything, encouraging many of us to get down to the bottom of something. If you need to do any research or self-study on a critical issue happening in your life, the first two weeks of September are the best times this year to do it, especially on September 6 when Mercury in Virgo sextiles the True Node retrograde in Cancer. 

Relationship issues may get tricky on or around September 4 when Venus in Virgo opposes Neptune retrograde in Pisces, and on September 17 when Venus in Libra opposes Chiron retrograde in Aries, be honest and patient with others and yourself, we are on edge and more sensitive during these times. 

Mars will remain in Virgo until October 4, 2019. During this transit we should take advantage of our ability to make practical decisions from a grounded place of intuition and logic, however, we should be mindful of procrastination as Virgo can sometimes over analyze something to the point of mass destruction. The best day to start a new task or project would be on September 2, 2019 when the Sun and Mars conjunct in Virgo. If you did your research and built a solid foundation, you’ll start to see some tangible results on September 9 and 19 when Mars forms healing trines to Saturn and Pluto both retrograde in Capricorn. 

On September 18, 2019, after almost six months in its retrograde station, Saturn will station direct. When Saturn is retrograde lessons around time-management, self-discipline, authority, money management, and etc are more deliberate and slow moving. When Saturn stations direct in its retrograde shadow zone (where it will be until ), we rise out of this period of delay with greater clarity, personal responsibility, and self-inflicted positive limitation. Instead of resisting limitation and structure, we learn to embrace the freedom boundaries bring us, regardless of how it transforms our beliefs on authority and time.

When the Sun joins Mercury and Venus both in Libra on September 23, 2019, our external focus and current life mission shifts to equality, beauty, and balance. Many of us will look to our homes, wardrobe, and partnerships for a sense of harmony and intellectual freedom. Libra loves everything glamorous and beautiful, Libra also loves to be the center of attention, she has to be where everyone else is. But beneath the surface Libra is more than a socialite, Libra is a fierce humanitarian who truly wants the best for everyone, even if it means sacrificing some of her greatest desires and needs. During this solar cycle be aware of your expectations of others and yourself. Make sure that you are still prioritizing your health, wellness, and organized daily routines that were established during Virgo season. 

The Month of September from a Numerical Perspective: 

In numerology, September is symbolized by the calendar month of nine. The number nine is the number of universal love, it encompasses the essence of all the other numbers on its path to formlessness and enlightenment, therefore the month of September is a symbol of wisdom, selflessness, compassion, humanity, and indescribable soul love. Some of the most sensitive and loving souls are born under the vibration of September, hence the zodiac signs of Virgo and Libra, both servants of the divine. 

Due to its natural lightworker and “old soul” vibration, the number nine is also a number that must learn how to separate the energies of others from its own. When the number nine is not evolved and grounded in its own energy, it can very easily get lost in the savior complex of negatively suppressing its power to others. 

In astrology, the planet and sign associated with the number nine is Uranus and Sagittarius, the rebellious intellectuals of the cosmic Zodiac. In tarot, the number nine is associated with the Major Arcana card ‘ The Hermit. ’ All expressions mentioned above speak to the radical eccentricism that can often be found hiding within the introverted number nine, encouraging those experiencing the evolving month of September to step deeper into their heart’s truth and rising soul mission. 

Ending, conclusion, and undoing is also an attribute of the gracious and dynamic number nine, so September represents the ending of the numerical cycle, also the ending of Summer, gently guiding us into the readiness of Fall. 

However, when we apply September’s nine essence to the universal year of three in 2019 we are gifted with a universal vibration of 3, matching the year’s universal essence. This is a very special month in numerology as every personal year number (we all have our own) is matched. For example, if you are in a personal five year, September will also be a personal five month for you. This is groundbreaking as it allows us to reflect and review on the experiences and energies we have culminated and nurtured thus far. 

A universal three month is signified by the need to express and feel, often through feelings of joy and playfulness. However, this can also lead to feelings of unexpected sadness, depression, and jealousy, so we must practice being present and grateful in every moment. For those who are involved in creativity, communications, or children based work on a daily basis September will be a busy month for you. This energy is excellent for starting a writing, communications, or creative practice, or launching/expanding an already existing one. This month encourages us to put our voice out there. 

September 2019 Lunar Cycle: 

September 5: First Quarter Moon 13º SAG 15’ at 11:11 PM EST 

The Sagittarius First Quarter Moon invites us into the after effects of death and rebirth. We soon realize that we are not hopeless, but in order to establish hope we must be proactive, and this is where the true choice lies. Many of us will feel a deeper sense of entitlement to live a life that is truly aligned with our highest ideals and dreams, but it comes with a hefty sacrifice. Instead of daydreaming about the life we want to live, the studies we want to learn, and the adventures we want to experience, we have to strategically build a path towards them, enjoying the ebb and flow of life and death along the way. Many of us may get lost in the after life and the feelings of leaving something behind, but most of us will find a sense of freedom and curiosity in not knowing what our sacrifice will birth, but still knowing that any movement at all is better than doing nothing. 

September 14: Full Moon 21º PIS 05’ at 12:33 AM EST 

The Pisces Full Moon invigorates our cells, forcing us to make peace with the realms of reality that others still may not believe exists. This energy is profound as it opens the portal to unexpected miracles and tragedies, psychic realizations and oracle revelations, and most importantly a long awaited soul breakthrough, but this does not come without its own price. This illumination reveals aspects of the soul that are tainted, that are lazy, that require permanence to feel sustained, but the beauty of this illumination is that we do not have to stay here, that by choosing to tap into the formlessness of all things we set ourselves free, and in material terms, this freedom is free.

September 21: Last Quarter Moon 28º GEM 48’ 10:40 PM EST 

The Gemini Last Quarter Moon is one of an inward nature. We are being called to tune in and follow the stream of our limitless consciousness. Where does stillness take you? Where does visualization go? Many of us will be gifted with supernatural perception at this time, giving us insights into the unseen layers of human consciousness and social interaction. Although Gemini is the social butterfly of the Zodiac, this lunation requires some form of solitude, even if that means you only commune with your nearest and dearest people (most likely the weirdest ones in your tribe.) For those trying to share or spread a message it will almost 100% go unnoticed or misunderstood, especially if involves ancient wisdom on the vastness of life and “spirituality.” Instead of trying to get others to understand you, make peace with your own level of innerstanding.

September 28: New Moon 05º LIB 20’ at 2:27 PM EST

The Libra New Moon brings us the gift of self-exploration, diving deep into the places where only we can feel sustained, where only we can feel whole. Many of us will feel a deep need to curl into a ball, rocking ourselves back and forth to feel grounded and loved. If you find yourself moving into this dark light energy surrender whole-heartedly to it, lose yourself in it, find yourself in it, be nothing in it. The essence of this nature is beyond words and understanding, it is a feeling, a lingering thought and fleeting dance of ecstasy, it is the fabrics and layers of self-love, one that we are just beginning to understand, so be gentle. Be kind, be firm and strong, say no and say yes, laugh and cry, be sensual and morbid, be daring and brave. This energy asks that we allow ourselves to move through the low vibrational fears so we can build our home in the heavens. This New Moon is one that will force us to unpack, and we need to do this one alone. 

Horoscopes for September 2019: 

Aries: September is an eye opening month for you, Aries. It asks that you learn how to be more disciplined in your daily endeavors while still pursuing your dreams in the most authentic way possible. This will be a challenge for many of you as you are prone to doing things alone, but if you want to be successful this month you need to learn how to work as a team. Towards the middle of September you will receive a wake up call via text or email that leaves you puzzled and at a loss for words, but this emotional upheaval is just what you need to re-ignite your fire. When the Sun enters Libra at the end of the month you may feel like your personal relationships and social obligations are weighing you down, but see past your own personal initiatives and look at things from the perspective of others. When you learn how to embrace each other's differences as much as you expect them to embrace your own, great things and long-lasting partnerships can be built. 

Taurus: Trust is the lesson of September for you, Taurus. This month forces you to address the areas of your mental health that keep you from expressing all the unique facets of your personality. Just because you believe in form, order, hard work, and perseverance does not mean that you can’t make time for new interests or hobbies, just allow them to find their own voice amidst your already established plans and personality traits. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month this period illuminates your ability to juggle social obligations with your own self-care needs. Release any preconceived beliefs or traditions that makes you feel like you have to be in five places at once. Let yourself relax and accept that it’s okay to be the fabulous host who still goes to bed early. The middle of the month is the perfect time for you to connect to your tribe to feel empowered, let others love you. 

Gemini: September is all about fluent stability for you, Gemini. You are always moving, seeking, learning, absorbing, transmuting, and sharing, but when do you give yourself time to just be still, to not express, to not do, to not be? If you are used to being a busy bee this month will ask that you settle in to your own hum and rhythm, especially if you are spending time with family and dear friends. If you feel lost or unsure this month, tap into the energy of your home. How does it feel? What is the aesthetic? Is it time to redecorate? Is it time to clear out? Changing the feng shui (flow of energy) in your home will help you clear out the clutter and confusion that can easily flare up in your mind. The middle of the month births a new area of creativity in your career and public image, be open to receive any intuitive soul downloads that engage you in a new professional path, especially if your “job” revolves around healing others. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month you will find yourself contemplating what brings your heart the most joy, what brings your “ego” the most sincere feelings of confidence and soul purpose. Give yourself time to explore and start to feel social again, it’s okay if you’re a homebody this month. 

Cancer: September is all about your relationship to others and the world around you, Cancer. Who do you talk to on a daily basis? Where do you go? What do you see? The energy of September asks that you open yourself to new possibilities and give yourself permission to see yourself in a new light. You are more likely to feel joy and playfulness and a sense of freedom and responsibility that you have been longing for for quite some time. Just be mindful that with every expansion of consciousness and material wealth there comes greater responsibility, responsibility that must be addressed and maintained on a daily basis, so be practical and diligent about it. If you are a mother or in a motherly role this energy may require more attention and responsibility from you, but you are equipped for the job. A sibling or elderly parent may also need you, especially in the middle of the month. Try to be open and optimistic about what you can do, but do not carry the burden for them. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month you move into a slower paced energy, and you welcome this. Spend more time at home, working from home, or beautifying your home. 

Leo: September is all about what you own, what you earn, and how you earn it, Leo. You are on a role when it comes to building a financial portfolio and personal assets that make you feel proud, responsible, grounded, and independent, however, this energy can be somewhat conflicting because your family is also depending on you more than ever, and this can be quite aggravating. If you feel like you need more space to explore your options, whether it's financially or personally do not be afraid to do so. Take into consideration your health and overall mental and physical wellness. How are you eating? How are you sleeping? How are you valuing your body, spirit, and mind as a whole? If you’ve been contemplating a major lifestyle change this is the energy to do it, especially in the middle of the month. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month you will feel more optimistic about who you are and who you are becoming, but this comes with a deep feeling of self-reliance and independence, do not let a lover or partner take this feeling away from you. 

Virgo: Happy Birthday September Virgos. September asks that you learn to be comfortable in your own skin, and this means getting acquainted with who you are and what you want for you and nobody else. This is somewhat hard for Virgo as Virgo relies greatly on others to feel appreciated, but that doesn’t mean you can’t grow. Solar returns are always challenging because it's a new energy, and often times it symbolizes an emergence from death, so be patient and gentle with yourself. By the middle of the month you may be struggling to deal with what is real and what is not, but be open to receive guidance from a wise person to help you find your way. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month your focus will have shifted from who you are to what you have, and this is okay. If you are looking to purchase a home, or expand your sense of value, belonging, and personal possessions, this is your time to do so. 

Libra: September is a trying time for you, Libra as you learn to let go and surrender to what you cannot change. Many of you will feel a deep sense of loss and betrayal, more often than not this energy will be directed at yourself. You may feel like you haven’t been as responsible as you should be, or you aren’t as appreciated as you should be, but this is not the case. Instead of focusing on what you do not have, or where you should be in life, give yourself permission to embrace the fullness of every present moment. It would do you some good to find quiet spaces of solitude so that you can cry, pray, meditate, and connect to your higher power. If you are in a position where your presence is constantly needed do not be afraid to make it known that right now you need more time for you. The middle of the month will be your most challenging, but also your most rewarding if you face any insecurity or inner resistance with love and light. When the Sun moves into your sign at the end of the month you may not feel the delight you were anxiously seeking, but by the middle of October you will be so glad that you held on. Keep climbing. 

Scorpio: September is a month of innovation for you, Scorpio. You are in this amazing space where you get to share more of who you are and on your own terms. If you don’t understand the present day society, and you think you have a better way of handling things, share that with others. Just make sure that you do it from a place of sincerity and not ego. Any Scorpio that works with others or utilizes transformation for personal empowerment will benefit greatly during the first two weeks of the month. This is an excellent time to share your message on life transformation, personal finance, and the true meaning of spiritual wellness and abundance. The middle of the month brings a creative burst of energy that comes from a challenge. Your soul may feel triggered to step back into an old pattern but resist this, keep on your way. When the Sun enters Libra at the end of the month you will start to feel the inner call to slow down, and that’s okay. Trust the timing of your inner guide. 

Sagittarius: September is a beautiful time for you, Sagittarius. From a professional perspective there is no greater time for you to get out and network, especially at the end of the month. If you’ve been longing for a promotion or any type of professional transformation this is your time to seek it, but you can’t just do it on a whim. Be open to slowing down and really figuring out what you want to do with the trajectory of your life, even if it is still in a million pieces. By putting out a call of organization and acceptance to the universe you attract evolved souls who are ready to help you ascend to the next level, but you have to put your own personal work in. The middle of the month brings a home and family matter to your attention, and for a couple of days you may feel misunderstood and overlooked, but don’t get stuck there. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month you will find that your down moment was actually a blessing in disguise. Put yourself out there and don’t be afraid of what you may find. 

Capricorn: September is a time of trust and expansion for you, Capricorn. If you’ve felt held back or discouraged about an area of specialization or growth in your life, especially if this grants you personal freedom, learn to let go of the bigger picture and focus more on the smaller details. The energy that you are in wants you to go deeper into the situation rather than being critical about what you see, because if you are willing to take the long route you will find yourself in a much better position when you do get to your final destination. The middle of the month brings illumination to a personal financial matter. If you’ve been sacrificing your own innate desires for quite some time this lunation gives you permission to tap into the universe for abundance and guidance. Overall the middle of the month is a time of trust and intuition, learning to follow your gut and listening to the flow of material and spiritual wealth that you are always seeking. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month you will find yourself more focused on your career and how you can socialize and expand your network to grow. Be open to working with others you may have once perceived as less than or below you, in the words of Chris Brown “look at them now.” 

Aquarius: September is a month of quietness and intimacy, Aquarius. This energy asks that you surrender to those who you feel most safe and secure with, those who nurture you and make you feel loved and whole. If you’ve been contemplating what your next personal move is in life you should stop focusing so much on what is going to happen, and instead on what you can actually control and change. Financial aspects of your life are under scrutiny now, and this doesn’t have to be a bad thing. This energy is asking that you evaluate how your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health, and how it connects to the material realms. If you’re tired, depressed, not eating, or eating unhealthy foods, how do you think this is affecting your overall physical reality? The middle of the month asks that you learn to take full personal responsibility for your situation, and trust that with time, patience, and self-will you can change your reality. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month you may start to feel enlightened and excited, the dark tunnel doesn’t look so dark anymore, and for this reason alone you should smile and celebrate. 

Pisces: September is one of personal growth on every level if you accept it, Pisces, especially when it pertains to your relationships. How you relate to others, how you communicate with others, and especially what you expect from others will change and transform as the month wanes on. This month can feel especially up and down until the middle of the month when you start to feel and internal breakthrough that has been building for quite some time. You also start to realize how much you rely on others for support, inspiration, and guidance, so don’t be so quick to write others off. When the Sun moves into Libra at the end of the month you may start to feel a deep internal shift of personal power and at the same time soul death. A huge part of who you are is transcending, and it's up to you how you come out on the other side. Spend time nurturing yourself and your finances, also your relationship to intimacy and reliance of sex. If a partnership that you are currently involved in is not mutually sustainable and satisfying you may see a dramatic and unexpected ending now. This ending will most likely come from one of you being forced to make a decision, and you may not get the outcome that you think or truly deserve.
