Tasha's Astro Planner for September 2017

September begins with Mercury still retrograde, however it finishes up and turns direct on the 5th, so get all your " re" work accomplished and begin the new projects you have hopefully been planning and anticipating while awaiting the end of Mercury's retrograde period. I know I managed to get a review of a huge box of memorabilia done at last, What did you accomplish? The three heavies: Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are all still retrograde, however their influence is more on the world at large and less in personal ways save for direct influence.

 

Sun in Virgo day 1 inclines us to straightening, clearing and tidying. The 22nd Sun in Libra brings an emphasis on harmony in surroundings and relationships. Day 1 Mercury has backed into Leo, a playful communication—telling jokes anyone? The 9th it proceeds into Virgo where it will encourage precision in speech and then the 29th into Libra where poetry may emerge into prominence. Venus is in Leo, encouraging regal choices until the 19th when a Virgo Venus makes for practical choices instead. Day 1 Mars also in Leo for grand projects inspires Virgoan practical action from the 5th on.

 

The Full Moon in Pisces falls on September 6th. Over the next two weeks it's time to consider what has outlived its usefulness and can be given away or recycled.  Clearing out dusty corners is encouraged now, as well as eliminating out dated foods or medicines. On the 20th the New Moon in Virgo encourages us to improve our health wih a good look a the diet to see what we need to include and set up an exercise regimen to ensure good health for the year ahead. The Autumnal Equinox follows two days later. The days will now begin to dwindle perceptibly as the length of the dark hours increases. It's time to make the mos of what light we have left.

 

Significant days to be mindful include 9/5 sun/Neptune opposition, a tug of war between reality and fantasy; 9/13 Sun/Saturn square, could indicate obstacles; 9/19 Mercury/Neptune opposition could make for confusion; 9/24 Mars/Neptune opposition could indicate active untruthfulness; 9/25 Mercury/Saturn square could mean obstacles to progress. Mercury reemphasizing the Eclipse degree could bring interesting news to the fore; and Uranus is trining it for much of the month may keep the energy alive and active.

 

Significant dates to benefit from include a 9/2 Mars/Uranus trine indicating anything can happen; a 9/3 Mercury/Mars conjunction good for speeding along, 9/5 Mercury turns direct and adds go power to the day; 9/9 Sun/Pluto trine, a day good for digging up treasure—literal or figurative; 9/12 Venus/Saturn trine, choices made today will endure; 9/17,18 Venus/Uranus trine could bring unusual opportunities or blessings; 9/22 Mercury/Pluto trine could help resolve a mystery; 9/28 Jupiter/Uranus opposition may release some unexpected good.
