SEPTEMBER 2025
This September is a month to review your life. Saturn retrogrades back to Pisces to finish his work there. He will be in Pisces until February 14. Those who have planets in the late degrees of Pisces have another chance to redo the lessons they didn’t quite learn.
The are two eclipses in September. The Lunar Eclipse occurs on September 7 at 15 degrees of Pisces. The Solar Eclipse is on September 21 at 29 degrees of Virgo. They make mid-September a time to reflect, not initiate. Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Chiron are all in retrograde motion.
September 1 – Moon in Sagittarius. This last holiday of summer carries a boost of energy. It’s not a day to stay home. You want to get out and engage in your most daring summer sports. Saturn backs into Pisces to make sure you passed the curriculum he gave you these past three years. You can retake the exams and get another chance to do well and better your score.
September 2 – Moon in Capricorn. You’ll remember how it felt to go back to school after vacation and look at a new bunch of textbooks. Use that energy to get back to work, even though it may take adjusting to the new schedule. Mercury enters Virgo to help you get organized. You can focus on the tasks in front of you with the added measure of how to do it the right way.
September 3 – Moon in Capricorn. Your mind is challenged to put all your new and exciting ideas into a usable form. Make outlines, timelines, and schedules. Ask a friend to listen to your thoughts.

September 4 – Moon in Aquarius. It’s a big picture day. Extend your thoughts to envision yourself in a new, positive future. Don’t censor or limit your notions, but indulge yourself to see what could be if you are daring enough to make it happen. Hold meetings at work or with any organization you belong to, so that you can use the power of the group mind to come up with new solutions.
September 5 – Moon in Aquarius. You will encounter some pushback as you try to influence someone to see things your way. Don’t be afraid to ruffle feathers and shake up their sense of security. Be kind but firm as long as you believe in what you are saying. Uranus is standing still, preparing to change direction. It’s not a good time to make a commitment.
September 6 – Moon in Pisces. Uranus is now moving backwards. This may cause anxiety when you feel your brilliant ideas fade away. It’s an unsettled day when you will feel the ground shake underneath you, either literally or figuratively. Do what you know calms you down. Go to a mediation class. Don’t try to start anything.
September 7 – Moon in Pisces. Today’s full Moon is eclipsed. Stay quiet and ride the waves of the day’s energy. Devote yourself to your soul.

Flush away negative emotions.
September 8 – Moon in Pisces/Aries. Start the day at a slow pace. You are still feeling yesterday’s eclipse energy. Your enthusiasm picks up as the day goes on.

September 11 – Moon in Taurus. Use today to calm yourself and find peace in your heart. You will work steadily and seamlessly without the need to stress yourself out about it.

September 12 – Moon in Taurus/Gemini. Jupiter blesses the day. He offers you opportunities for work and for your wellbeing. He shows your mind a good direction for your next steps.

Do you feel safe and comfortable?
September 16 – Moon in Cancer. Examine the balance of what you do for other people and how much others do for you. You know how to comfort your friends and family, but can you do that for yourself?

September 17 – Moon in Leo. Pay attention to the words you use. You think you are being clear, but you need to make sure you are being heard and understood.
