Welcome to September, Libra. Your season begins this month, plus a tumultuous eclipse urges you to take it easy. During August, a primal full moon encouraged you to tap into new modes of pleasure, and your star-approved right to feel good continues this month in a profound and catalytic way.
On Sunday, September 1, Uranus, the rebel of the zodiac, goes retrograde in your sexy 8th House. This backward dance will last through January 2025; over the next few months, your relationship with sexuality may change. Perhaps you explore a kink, discover pleasure in more traditional lovemaking (missionary can be surprisingly hot), or even step back for a period of celibacy. Whatever happens, it will leave you feeling true to yourself and improve your relationship with intimacy, in part because, also, on Sunday, September 1, transformative Pluto, which is currently retrograde, moves into your cozy 4th House. If you can, use the Virgo new moon, a time for fresh starts, on Monday, September 2, to reflect on your sex life and pleasure and think about what’s working and what isn’t.
If you’ve been thinking about switching careers, asking for a raise, asking someone out, or truly doing anything bold that affects your social life, the stars line up to help you out on Wednesday, September 4, when the fighter Mars moves into your social 10th House. Then, on Sunday, September 8, the wise asteroid Pallas moves into your communicative 3rd House, adding extra luck to your already often charming conversations. As a result, early September is a pretty epic time to shoot your shot.
September also heightens your intuition. When the divine messenger Mercury moves into your heady 12th House on Sunday, September 8, consider keeping a dream journal by your bed to write down messages that may come to you while you sleep. It’s also a lovely time to work with ancestors or tarot cards. If your schedule allows, honestly, try to spend most of mid-September resting and leaning into self-care. On Tuesday, September 17, there’s a Pisces full moon and lunar eclipse, which can be pretty stressful, that occurs in your 6th House of Health. This isn’t cause for alarm, but it is a warning about burnout. Keep your schedule light, and carve out time for good meals, healthy exercise, and plenty of sleep.
And, after resting mid-month, you get to celebrate when the sun moves into your sign on Sunday, September 22. Happy solar return! Over the next few weeks, make sure to connect with friends, lovers, and family. You’re the sign of love and relationships, and you deserve to feel doted on during your birthday—which, yes, is allowed to last all season long. Also on the start of your season, Sunday, September 22, is the fall equinox, meaning the hours of light and dark are equal (which, as the sign of balance, you can’t help but appreciate). It’s also the witchy Thanksgiving, aka Mabon, as if you need another excuse to celebrate. And, finally, also on Sunday, September 22, your ruling planet, generous Venus, moves into your opulent 2nd House, indicating that the end of September may bring welcome professional or financial news.
The end of September is a lot of fun. Just make sure, in the spirit of Mabon, to let others know how much you appreciate them, especially if they’re celebrating you for your birthday. When the messenger Mercury moves into your sign on Thursday, September 26, communication comes easy, and you’re not ashamed to show emotions. The more affectionate you are with others, the more they’ll act the same towards you. Have fun, happy birthday, and we’ll see you in October.
