The month starts off with a bang when Uranus goes retrograde on September 1, stirring an emotional breakthrough. You may be able to understand your past with a new perspective. A financial situation may also experience a sudden change—anything from a windfall to quitting a job! On the same day, Pluto Retrograde enters Capricorn. The next few months encourage you to confront what’s remained hidden in your family lineage or living situation, confront unhealthy power dynamics, and break a cycle.
There’s a New Moon in Virgo on September 2 that helps you ask for what you need. You may let go of some responsibilities that leave you exhausted or experience a moment of self-awareness about the ways in which you’re holding yourself back. This New Moon can give you the final push to make a long-lasting change.
You’re reached your limit when the Sun in Virgo stares down Saturn in Pisces on September 7. Your daily responsibilities might leave you feeling exhausted, requiring you to set boundaries. Listen to what your body is asking of you, and rest when possible. On the following day, Mercury enters Virgo, bringing intuitive insight your way. You could be working on your next big goal.

There’s a dramatic Full Moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 17. This can bring fated endings and beginnings in your everyday life. Maybe you start a new job that requires you to travel or you start working from home. Whatever your daily routine has been, it undergoes a major shakeup under this eclipse. You may also feel exhausted from personal and professional commitments or experience the ending of something that’s required a lot of your physical or emotional effort.
The Sun enters Libra and the fall equinox takes place on September 22, making you the main character! The next few weeks bring more attention your way. This Libra season, you’ll encounter important people who can help further your goals and support your wildest desires. The Libra Sun can also shine a spotlight on your relationships, but make sure you focus on your needs and to advocate for yourself first. On the same day, you’re confronting toxic patterns in your partnerships when Venus, in your sign, clashes with Pluto in Capricorn. Old relationship wounds or tension with family members can pop up. Exposing what’s been left unsaid can help you break free and feel more empowered.
Then, on September 22, Venus enters Scorpio. Over the next few weeks, you’re focused on building your sense of security. You could apply for jobs, negotiate a raise, or launch a side business of your own. You’re feeling more confident in your unique skillset. People are drawn to your talent and ideas.
Mercury, the planet of the mind and communication, enters Libra on September 26. The next few weeks bring important news. You can experience revelations regarding your identity, authenticity, ideas, and goals. This can also be a busy time for contract work or reflecting on the give-and-take in your close relationships.
