Weekly Horoscopes September 23 - September 29, 2019

Monday: September 23, 2019

Today the Last Quarter Moon in Cancer will sextile Mars in Virgo. This aspect encourages us to approach our emotions with logic and organization rather than attachment and obsession. Many of us will learn that when we allow ourselves to feel, the energy and motivation we need to complete our tasks will rise naturally. Do not force yourself to do anything today. Listen to your body and its needs and then act accordingly.

The Last Quarter Moon in Cancer will also trine Neptune retrograde in Pisces. This aspect goes against the energy of Mars in Virgo and almost tempts us with distraction and a desire to escape responsibility. However, the Moon’s opposition to Pluto retrograde in Capricorn forces us to evaluate our personal responsibilities and make practical changes that will establish the emotional and physical foundation we are looking for.

The Sun will also enter Libra today until October 23, 2019. When the Sun is in Libra our actions are partnership focused. This four-week solar cycle encourages us to speak up for ourselves and beliefs. It also motivates us to expand our social network and position in the world, especially in the world of art, social justice, and mediation.

Tuesday: September 24, 2019

Today the Moon will remain void of course until 6:37 AM EST. The Moon will then enter Leo until Thursday morning. Today the Waning Crescent Moon in Leo will sextile the Sun in Libra. This aspect encourages us to take definitive action in terms of our self-expression, passion, and creativity. Many of us will come into communication with a close friend or love who reawakens our desire for creative freedom, personal identity, and inspiration. However, this aspect is heightened by the Moon’s trine to Chiron retrograde in Aries. A part of us that feels broken, alienated, defeated, or misunderstood is brought to the surface for healing and attention. This is most likely related to our personal self-esteem and ability to communicate our desires and beliefs authentically.

The Waning Crescent Moon in Leo will also square Uranus retrograde in Taurus. This aspect challenges our desire for personal freedom, especially when it comes to traditional beliefs that limit our ability to self-express. We may come across stubborn individuals today who refuse to see both sides of an indifference. Do not force your opinion on this person. Learn to hold your own beliefs without being discouraged by others.

The communication challenges that show up today are accelerated by a Mercury in Libra and Jupiter in Sagittarius sextile. Mercury in Libra is a natural orator. Mercury in this position can woo anyone. However, Jupiter in Sagittarius appreciates and almost commands direct honesty. And sometimes Libra can really struggle with that. The best way to move through today’s charged tension is to be confident in who you are, what you believe, and how you express. Passive aggressiveness, people pleasing, and insecurity won’t carry over well today.

Wednesday: September 25, 2019

Whatever communication mishaps that occurred yesterday will be directly addressed and cleared today. The Waning Crescent Moon in Leo will sextile Mercury in Libra. This aspect encourages us to move forward in our artistic and creative pursuits, especially those that deal with writing, performance arts, event planning, and co-organization. This energy is enhanced by the Moon’s trine to Jupiter in Sagittarius.

Venus in Libra will also square Saturn in Capricorn today. This aspect encourages us to directly face the ways which we may belittle ourselves in the face of authority, or coward away from it as a whole. This energy can feel restrictive if we do not create our own definition of harmony and sacred balance. However, this is not something that we learn overnight but with time.

Libra energy can sometimes be codependent when underdeveloped. Today’s energy encourages us to dig deep and trust in our inner strength and diplomatic abilities. Personal responsibility and authority conflicts are not “bad.” Sometimes we need a kick in the gut to get us moving. So, get moving.

Thursday: September 26, 2019

Today the Moon is void of course until 6:03 AM. The Moon will then enter Virgo until Saturday morning. Today the Waning Crescent Moon in Virgo will trine Uranus retrograde in Taurus. Any necessary and often unexpected changes to our health, daily routines, and overall work/life balance is most likely to show up for correction today. This energy is supported by the Moon’s trine to Saturn in Capricorn. This aspect encourages us to be more adaptive in terms of personal responsibility and long-term planning.

The Sun in Libra will oppose Chiron retrograde in Aries. This aspect creates a synergy of balance between the self and the other. Many of us may have an internal conflict that impacts how we maintain our own needs and desires in relationship to any social contracts and agreements that we may have committed to. Do not feel forced or burdened by something that you no longer want to do. Speaking up for your decisions and taking personal responsibility for who you are and what you want is not a sin. Just make sure that you are not going against your promises. This will have negative consequences and reflect poorly for your personal and public reputation. This energy is intensified by a Mercury in Libra square to Pluto retrograde in Capricorn.

Friday: September 27, 2019

Today the Waning Crescent Moon in Virgo will square Jupiter in Sagittarius. This aspect creates tension in our desire for order, precision, and reliability. Virgo is grounded and logical. Sagittarius is optimistic and impulsive. Most often these two don’t mix. Today we will experience this energy in the area of our lives that deal with feeling restlessness, boredom, and a desire for something greater. If you are anxiously awaiting a vacation or would love to expand an area of knowledge, mastery, and study, this energy will push you to do it. Just make sure that before you sign a contract or pay any money you do thorough research on your options. Decisions made now are most likely to see complications later down the road. This aspect is heightened by the Moon’s opposition to Lilith in Pisces.

The Moon in Virgo will also trine Pluto retrograde in Capricorn. This aspect is powerful for making much needed long-term changes to how we interact and communicate with authority figures or leadership opportunities. However, trines can sometimes encourage laziness. It’s important that we take an active approach if we want the change we are implementing to last long-term.

Saturday: September 28, 2019

Today the Moon is void of course until 6:03 AM. The Moon will then enter its New Moon phase in Libra until Monday. Today’s New Moon will occur at 5º LIB 20’ at 2:27 PM EST. The Libra New Moon brings us the gift of self-exploration. We are 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 fabric and layers of self-love -- one that we are just beginning to understand so be gentle.

The energy of the Libra New Moon encourages us to be kind, firm and strong, to say no and say yes, to laugh and cry, to be sensual and morbid, and to be daring and brave. This energy asks that we allow ourselves to move through the low vibrational fears so we can build our home on Earth as we would in the heavens. This New Moon is one that will force us to unpack, and we need to do this one alone.

Venus in Libra will also sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius today. This aspect encourages us to get out and about and socialize with those who stimulate our craving for adventure, spontaneity, spiritual growth, and balance. Many of us will be involved with activities that involve the great outdoors, or some sort of artistic/craft abilities.

Sunday: September 29, 2019

Today the New Moon in Libra will square Pluto retrograde in Capricorn. This aspect challenges our fear of walking alone, or in other words standing on our own two feet. Pluto forces Libra to step outside of its boundaries of codependency and indecision. This is a time of self-affirmation and personal empowerment. It’s time to make a decision and stick to it.

The energy of change continues on as the Moon conjuncts both Venus and Mercury in Libra. Many of us will feel a sense of airiness or lightness around our ideas and personal relationships. Instead of seeking conflict or confusion, we will find balance and clarity in ourselves, and this will be projected as a mirror of self-love for others to follow. This ability to express oneself with confidence, optimism, and adventure is enhanced by the Moon’s sextile to Jupiter in Sagittarius. When we truly put ourselves out there and trust in the process, spontaneous doors of liberation, social opportunity, and expansion will follow.

Weekly Horoscopes for all signs:

For accuracy it is best to read your Rising/Ascendant horoscope first. After you have read your Rising/Ascendant horoscope you should read your Moon and Sun sign. Weave the three readings together to make a complete story.

Aries: Cooperation is the name of your game this week, Aries. When you learn how to see conflict and growth from the perspective of those around you, you gain clarity and access into unknown situations and social circles. Use this week to flush out any underlying fear or egoistic tendencies that hold you back from connecting with new people and those you love. A partnership may go through some unexpected changes this week.

Taurus: Someone special will come into your life and show you a new path, Taurus. Your daily routines, work life, and health could use some balance. So, why not ask for help? Instead of taking everything on yourself and playing savior, let someone else step up for a change. This week asks you to prioritize your own needs and acts of compassionate service. It doesn’t mean that you can’t be there for others, but sometimes it’s okay to just be there for you.

Gemini: Love, romance, creativity, that’s all that’s on your mind right now, Gemini. Over the next few weeks (especially this one), open yourself to new relationships and social circles. Connecting with old buddies and inviting in the new could be just what you need to feel inspired and creating again. If you feel disconnected or depressed, ask yourself is this projected or sincere. Sometimes your ego needs a reality check. And this doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

Cancer: Family duties pick up for you starting this week, Cancer. And sometimes it can be really overwhelming. In order to stay balanced you will have to set some boundaries (and stick to them). Make yourself and your needs a priority. Organizing and cleansing out your home space could be life changing for your overall sense of balance and well-being. Make it a point to share responsibilities with your partner in or around the home, especially if you are a mother or caretaker. Don’t take everything on yourself.

Leo: Get ready for a busy schedule, Leo. The next few weeks starting now will make you the socialite of the Fall. Many of you will start to receive and host party or social invitations to events and gatherings. Instead of saying yes to everything and feeling guilty about saying no, make it known what your self-care needs are. If you are a writer, performer, or communication is a huge part of your job, this week could bring exciting opportunities to your doorstep. Get ready for some fun!

Virgo: Money is on your mind right now, Virgo. This week you will feel a natural pull to assess your personal assets and values, especially if you are married or in a committed partnership. Ask yourself what do you need, what do they need, and how you can work towards this goal together. Insecurity issues surrounding your identity will pop up this week too. Be open to express and explore what you feel.

Libra: Happy Birthday, Libra. This week can feel like a rollercoaster ride to you as you adjust to the Sun’s transition into your sign. However, whatever clarity that you are so desperately seeking should be put to the side. When you force or overthink, things don’t flow. This week practice being joyful in uncertainty. When you calm down, life does too.

Scorpio: Life may start to get intense now, Scorpio. As you transition into your period of rest and seclusion, give yourself permission to explore the “shadow” sides of your personality, subconscious, and belief system. Naturally old wounds, especially those surrounding how we identify as an individual in comparison to the greater world rises to the surface. But this should not be perceived as something negative. Learn to love yourself in all situations. You are right on time.

Sagittarius: Network, Network, Network, Sagittarius. This week throws you into a social circle or random acquaintance that holds the exact piece of information or opportunity that you are looking for. However, you may question it because of your own insecurities or personal fears. A soulmate, friend, or business partner will be a beacon of light for you this week if you let them. Open your heart to balance and self-love.

Capricorn: Your career and education decisions are up for review, Capricorn. A close friend or business associate could become an angel in disguise for you this week if you remain open. This week you may also receive an invitation to join an association or networking group. If this comes up, say yes.

Aquarius: A spiritual awakening and rebirth is awaiting you, Aquarius. In every aspect of your life you are ready to expand and this comes from the work you have privately done with yourself. Opportunities for travel and adventure may come this weekend from a close friend, mentor, or classmate. Give yourself permission to express the more intellectual and artistic aspects of your being. The world is waiting to hear from you.

Pisces: Emotions run deep this week, Pisces. You may be feeling personally deflated or powerless when a situation (or someone) suddenly changes their mind or declares that they need more time to “think.” But don’t worry about the outcome because your ability to remain balanced and graceful despite your internal turmoil will not go unnoticed. Instead of worrying about what “they” choose, empower yourself. You are more powerful than you know.
