Weekly Horoscope: September 8-September 14, Emotionally Fired Up

The energy felt this week may last for two months!

Mars (the planet of passion, drive and anger) will be sizzling along the seacoasts of Cancer from Sept. 4 until Nov. 3. Remember the feelings felt now because you’ll likely be experiencing it again between January and April of next year.

This week begins with a bit of somber energy on Sept. 8 — as we may feel more isolated, rejected or fatigued. Mercury enters Virgo on Sept. 9 and will reach peak speed on Sept. 11, so all of that sluggish energy will be brushed off after August.

Spicy energy arises on Sept. 11 as the stars align, while the second half of the week will have us feeling butterflies in our stomachs and on top of the world. Breakthroughs and exciting opportunities could arrive!

Read on for what this week has in store for your zodiac sign!

Aries (March 21 to April 19)

A new pace of life is taking hold, Aries, and you’ll be feeling this energy on and off for many long months! In truth, you’ll be especially emotional and notice that your feelings are extra intense.

Do your best to breathe through anything that triggers you. On a different note, you could become deeply engrossed in activity around home, family or domestic life. For instance, you could be cranking along on a renovation or relocation.

If there’s tension bubbling beneath the radar regarding family or parents, though, you could be gearing up to stand up for yourself or others.

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)

Prepare for an incredibly long period that will keep you moving and grooving, Taurus! Not only are you likely to be traveling a great deal now until next April, but you’re clearly attracting new experiences and points of view.

Some of you could become quite invested in communication projects during this time, such as working on a thesis, creating a milestone proposal, launching a campaign or learning new skills. Your voice and ideas will carry far more potency going forward, so be very clear on your vision and what you want to say because people will be paying more attention.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)

You’re heading into a very long period that turns greater focus to your finances, Gemini. On a positive note, you could win big from now until April as you hustle forward.

However, this long-term period could show that you’re burning through cash faster than ever before. The key to handling this energy is to understand the input and output of your finances so you don’t look back and groan that you’ve depleted too much of your resources.

If you want to fight for a better-paying job, you could also be in luck!

Cancer (June 21 to July 22)

It’s been nearly two years since you’ve felt this fired up, Cancer, and the universe is igniting your body, mind and soul! You will feel energized to achieve personal and professional goals now and in the many months ahead.

The key is to harness all of this robust energy and keep your eyes on the prize and set forth to put all of the pieces in place as you hustle forth. In truth, now until early October will be your strongest period, so use the time quickly. October and onward could bring more hurdles than openings.

Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22)

The universe is echoing in a strange way at this time, Leo. As the wheel of life turns, you’re experiencing a different vibe than you’re used to.

Typically, you’re ready to step centerstage and command attention — but presently, you’re a bit more focused on spending time alone or in your inner world. You could be especially busy and hard at work on developing projects.

Be aware that time is of the essence — and in November, you’ll have more star power and strength on your side. Also, note that launching anything in December would not do well for you in the long run.

Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)

The universe is supplying so much cosmic happiness for you this month, Virgo, even if you notice that you have to roll with the punches a bit more than you’d hoped for.

You’re entering another period of the year that will spice up your social life — especially in regard to friends, acquaintances or supporters! You could be attending big events or instead find yourself working on group projects.

This energy could also bring in more opportunities for dating through your network or even turn a friend into a sweetheart. Above all, connection with people who see eye to eye with you will be especially rewarding.

Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)

In recent months, Libra, you likely saw more of a focus on your career and you’re gearing up for extra energy now until April 2025!

In fact, you may find that you’re suddenly hitting the pavement harder than ever before to build your ascent and make a name for yourself. Moving up the ladder, finding another job or garnering attention could all work in your favor now and in the months ahead.

However, if you’re feeling frustrated that your job isn’t fulfilling you, it might be time to buckle down and strategize how you can move in new directions.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)

There’s a shift in the winds, Scorpio, and it’s clear that you need a change of scenery. Moving in new directions, trying out new things and opening to new sensations, perceptions and experiences will be especially impactful for you now and in the weeks ahead.

On a different note, though, you could find that you’re particularly fired up around your beliefs and how you should — or shouldn’t — be living your life. This may even trickle into discussions or conflicts with others.

You can be extremely opinionated when you set your mind on something, but it might be time to open yourself up to other perspectives, too.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)

Get ready for a surge of erotic energy to electrify your body, mind and soul, Sagittarius. You always tend to be a spicy one and you’ll be eager to connect with someone on the deepest of levels.

Luckily, this energy will be activated for many long months. Cranking up the heat in the bedroom would be hotter than ever before, especially for couples in long-term relationships.

However, if for some reason you feel like you’re not getting what you desire from an outside party or sweetheart, you may instead be feeling a bit agitated, frustrated or downright disrespected. Do your best to take a step back and assess where you stand in your connections and how you can work as a team.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)

Prepare for even more energy to highlight your relationships, Capricorn. This fuel cranks it up from now until next summer.

Flying solo won’t get you very far now! The key to harnessing this cosmic flow is to find someone who can work in tandem with you side by side. While this may be a sweetheart, it can also be with a business associate.

Singles can embrace this energy, too, by taking the lead and putting themselves out there to find someone who matches their ideal partner.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)

While this year has certainly brought many opportunities for happiness and romance, Aquarius, there is a new trend upon you.

You’re about to become a train racing down the tracks, trying to be as productive as possible. Now and in the weeks ahead you could find that there’s a never-ending supply of responsibilities and projects crossing your desk and you’re drowning under your work’s demands.

If you’re in unfulfilling employment, you could be stir-crazy to make a change. Start looking now and apply! Update that resume or LinkedIn! The perfect job is already waiting for you.

Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20)

Of all the zodiac signs, Pisces, you have so much potential to enjoy romance, creativity and passion from now until next summer. This energy started to gain speed last week and will become even more prominent now.

You’ll be exuberant and fired up to have fun, fall in love or live life to the fullest! In fact, if you’re single, you’re in one of the most significant periods in your life to line up sexy suitors who could ignite the magic in your soul. If coupled up already, use this eternal flame to fan the spark between you.

On a different note, spending time engaging with art and expression, connecting with children or embracing hobbies will all be particularly rewarding.
