Astrology for September 20 - 26, 2021

Monday, September 20:

Monday brings sleepy vibes as the Full Moon in Pisces reaches its peak and Virgo season prepares to come to a quiet end. With Pisces being the sign of completion and healing, you may want to spend the day resting, tying up loose ends, or peacefully saying goodbye to something or someone you love.

Although this energy may signal the end of a familiar road, all is not lost. Two air trines forming between Mars and the North Node and Mercury and Jupiter bring a sense of emotional maturity and social understanding. 

If you need to have a tense conversation, host a meeting, or feel the call to uplift and encourage a friend, today’s energy provides the words and wisdom you need to see it through. Trust yourself and those around you. You are on the right path.  

Tuesday, September 21:

Keep a level head today. The current astrology may have you feeling resentful, frustrated, or emotionally on edge. 

Early this morning, the Waning Gibbous Moon in Aries will face off with warrior Mars in passive-aggressive Libra, and this could mean that there is a rocky start to your day. 

With Libra ruling relationships, you may have a rift with a lover, or you could just be feeling off-balance due to a poor night’s sleep. Whatever the case, find healthy ways to channel your frustration instead of projecting internal battles on others. 

Later in the day, the Moon will form a supportive sextile to serious Saturn retrograde in innovative Aquarius. Use this supportive energy to take action or reflect on your professional goals. 

If feeling overwhelmed or struggling with hurt feelings, it’s okay to delegate or ask for extra help. You may receive helpful advice from a wise friend, boss, or mentor.

Wednesday, September 22:

Wednesday’s vibes bring tense communications as the Sun prepares to make its fall in the seventh zodiac sign of Libra. Although Libra Season is great for attracting partnerships, redesigning, upgrading your wardrobe, and prioritizing self-care, it may be challenging to make decisions and maintain focus. 

Late tonight, the Waning Gibbous Moon in Aries will oppose Mercury, pre-retrograde in Libra, highlighting the current state of division in our personal and public worlds. During this transit, you may find that others are more argumentative and challenge your beliefs and thoughts. 

Pluto, the planet of power and destruction, will form a conflictual square to Mercury in fair-minded Libra. Public officials or the authority figures in your life may pass new regulations or temporary restrictions that feel politically or socially unjust. 

The impulsive Moon in Aries also squares Pluto. Expect disorganized protest and scattered acts of violence surrounding these issues. Someone may be retaliating or demanding retribution for unsolved problems still lingering from the past. 

On the bright side, this energy can expose where you may be allowing others to control your actions. If possible, silence the critics and empower yourself. 

Some may need to let go of outdated methods of discipline and find healthier alternatives to bring structure into your life. Look to your house of Capricorn and Aries for more clues. 

Thursday, September 23:

Finances and love may be a sore topic today as Venus, the planet of pleasure and money forms an uncomfortable opposition to changemaker Uranus. This cosmic shakeup could easily spiral into emotional breakdowns or financial breakthroughs, just depending on your personal placements. 

With the Moon in Taurus forming a restricting square to Saturn retrograde in Aquarius, there may be disputes between a group about inheritance or community assets. Refrain from projecting blame and keep the end goal in mind. 

For those experiencing a breakdown, don’t get discouraged by unexpected shortfalls or temporary delays. Instead, move forward with patience and determination. The Moon will be exalted in Taurus, helping you to stabilize any intense emotions. Control what you can control. 

For those experiencing a breakthrough, use this transit to honor your lineage and legacy. Do not be shy about sharing your transformation process. Use this energy to encourage and uplift others.

The Weekend, September 24 - 26:

Keep things simple Saturday. The Moon in Taurus will square expansive Jupiter retrograde in community-centered Aquarius, bringing delays or misunderstandings within a group. 

Although you are excited or optimistic about the future or final outcome, this energy requires you to be honest about your current resources. Do not overindulge for the sake of fitting in. 

However, with action-oriented Mars in diplomatic Libra forming a harmonious trine to serious Saturn, this is a good time to lean on older family members and close friends. 

Sunday’s vibes are perfect for gathering with friends and living in the moment. The curious Moon in Gemini will form a conjunction to the North Node, the hands of fate, who is also in a healing trine to Mars in Libra. This energy feels like being in the right place at the right time, so don’t worry if you feel like you have no plans or sense of direction about what’s to come. 

The people and resources you need will be there -- you just have to keep an open mind and go with the flow.

Weekly Horoscopes for the Signs

I suggest reading your Rising/Ascendant sign message first to get a general overview of your energy.

Your Sun sign message will tell you how you will express the energy of the Rising.

The Moon sign message will tell how you are responding emotionally this week. Also, what tools and practices you may lean on to help you feel most comfortable.

Air signs: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius 

Air signs, get back on track this week. If you feel like you have lost focus or fell behind due to life and responsibilities piling up, it’s never too late to start again. With the Full Moon in Pisces supporting your desire for growth and resurrection, honor any endings that come this week. Trust that whatever leaves your life is making space for what’s to come. Mid-week, you may need to have a conversation with an older family member, business partner, or boss. Whatever the case, be straightforward in your delivery. With Libra season officially kicking off on Wednesday, the inspiration and creative breakthrough you’ve been searching for are here. As a fellow air sign, Libra Season encourages you to stop playing small or beat around the bush. Use the next four weeks to refresh your image and lifestyle. This weekend, stay open to the unexpected. Although finances may cause worry or celebration, a surprise opportunity or gift is just what you need to boost your spirits and get you back in the swing of things. Take your time, but get active. 

Water signs: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces

Water signs, stay open to receiving this week. If you feel like things are finally starting to align in your favor, that’s because they are. All you need to do to maintain this energy is to continue believing in yourself and your process. With the Full Moon in fellow water sign Pisces, you may have moments of self-doubt and occasional loneliness, but if you open your heart, you will see that everything you have been asking for recently is happening. If you feel like things are working against you, you may want to make a gratitude list and keep it in your wallet or purse to remind you how blessed you are. The energy Mid-week requires you to take action on a commitment or long-term goal. You may be signing a lease or a new contract. Whatever the case, make sure you read the fine print. With Venus and Uranus opposite one another this week, you may experience an unexpected relationship change or breakup. You could also receive a large sum of money or have to repay a debt. This weekend, spend some time reconnecting with your loved ones. You may decide to treat yourself to a new wardrobe, home decor, cosmetics, or gourmet meal. Enjoy yourself, but do not break the budget. 

Fire signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius 

Fire signs, trust the slowness in your life. If you feel like the universe is asking you to slow down and soak up all the messages it is sending your way -- do just that. As busy and loud as the world may seem right now, you, my beautiful fiery one, are being asked to channel your energy with intention and precision, not speed. So if you are rushing, stop. Allow the Pisces Full Moon to carry you. Mid-week, you may feel a rush of energy as the Moon wanes into fellow fire sign Aries, urging you to make changes to your daily routines, diet, and overall focus. If you have been stagnant, move your body. Recommit to an exercise plan, go for a walk, wash your hair, rearrange your space, create the flow you are craving. This weekend brings a few delays and disappointments, but nothing you will not bounce back from. Getting your budget, business plans, and spending habits back in check may seem daunting, but you will be so proud of yourself once it's done. 

Earth signs: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn 

Earth signs, work, and family matters take precedent in your life right now, and that’s okay. For those celebrating a birthday or recent accomplishment, don’t fret if all the focus is not on you right now -- you will find the most joy by sharing the glory with those you love. The Full Moon in Pisces brings a rush of love and compassion for your journey and the lifestyle you are creating. Trust that the small steps, the daily decisions, and self-discipline you put forth are building up to those long-term goals and dreams. Mid-week, emotions tend to run high, and you may have to put a few fires out. A loved one, coworker, or business partner may require more assistance than you initially planned for, but show up anyway. If you need a break or some me-time, plan for some self-care this weekend. Just don’t be surprised if you have a few interruptions with the Taurus Moon opposing Venus and squaring the Aquarius placements. Whether you signed up for it or not, you may need to take the lead in a financial, familial, or professional matter. However, don’t be afraid to affirm your boundaries. Helping others is great, but not at the expense of your health and freedom. It is okay to set limits. Tough love is still unconditional love.
