This month begins with a new Moon on September 2 at 11° Virgo 04′ and Uranus going stationery retrograde at 27° Taurus 15′. Both are in earth signs so there’s some natural between them but as Uranus rules unexpected events, rebellions, social consciousness, as well as earth changes and out of the blue big events, any of which can be more than a bit unsettling.
Uranus will back up over Algol — considered a very negative star in the Perseues constellation — for the 2nd time next month, and will cross it for the third and final time in May of 2025. So we still have some tumultuous times ahead, as the upheaval lasts through that time period. It will affect the fixed signs between 20 and 29 degrees the most, so if you have a planet, the ascendant or the angular house cusp within those degrees, look out, you might have some big surprises in store.
There’s a partial solar eclipse on the full Moon of September 17th, at 25° Pisces 41′ with the Moon conjunct Neptune. This has a spacey kind of energy with the Neptune vibe but the Moon is also hemmed in between the North Node and Saturn, two malefics, creating a bottle neck of energy that doesn’t express with ease, like between a rock and a hard place. With Neptune in the mix there could very well be some kind of deception going on. Just keep breathing as this will pass.
On a lighter note, Venus is in Libra, a sign she rules and is now appearing as the brilliant and beautiful evening star, visible right after sunset in the western sky. She will be moving towards an air trine with Jupiter in Gemini between September 11 through the 21st. It’s a great time for social events but be careful about overindulging in everything pleasurable! But how bad can that be?
