Overview

This week we see a contrast between what’s pretty (Libra) and not so pretty (Scorpio, Pluto).

October 1st sees a square between Venus in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn. This is a crisis between hidden power/ truths (Pluto) versus polite social interactions (Venus). It’s the shadow behind what you want. All one-on-one exchanges will have a manipulative edge.

Pluto direct on October 3rd can push you through the above crisis as deep transformations, “deaths” and emerging truths roll forward. Progress will be uncomfortable but necessary. Adding to this, Mercury enters Pluto -ruled Scorpio on the same day, adding depth to all communication and information. Mercury will station RX in Scorpio on October 31st.

Mars enters Libra on October 4th. The planet of action and anger cannot express itself directly in Venus -ruled Libra. And yet, this can be one of the more competitive placings for Mars (Libra is a Cardinal sign).

On October 6th, the Libra Sun squares the Nodes (South Node in Capricorn/ North Node in Cancer). Transiting planets in Libra have been squaring the Nodes since September 22nd, so this issue (a choice between familiar past versus unfamiliar future) is not new. The Sun will energize this in a general way as you continue to address the balance between South Node rules/ limits versus North Node emotional authenticity. 

Aries

Venus in your partnership sector square Pluto can trigger compulsive attractions or struggles for power: dominance can become more important then the relationship.

Pluto direct in your career sector can intensify the above but will also signal forward movement regarding a career change or your future goals; a new path is emerging as old definitions of success die.

Mercury into your sector of shared resources can take a relationship conversation to a deeper level and encourage you to look at the underside of what you share. Debts, taxes, your partner’s finances or intimacy are topics that you’ll be having authentic conversations about. This placement favours intensive research and psychological exploration. Mercury’s retrograde on October 31st promises to extend the discussions and deep insights.

Mars into your relationship sector can see your partner taking the initiative while drawing your attention to the importance of balanced actions, the motivations of others and an equal exchange of effort. It’s not always up to you to get things started.

Taurus

This  can help you move past any crises in work or health. Let go of what you cannot control.

Mercury into your partnership sector signals a deeply honest relationship conversation that can raise some uncomfortable issues.

Mercury’s retrograde on October 31st will extend the conversation while reactivating issues from the past.

Mars into your sector of routine can signal more work and more obligations but can also help you approach them in a balanced way. You may veer between doing nothing and doing way too much before you find the sweet spot: this is part of the process.

Overview

September 23 marks the Sun’s move into Libra and the Fall Equinox. We enter the season of balance/imbalance as well as reaping what has been sown. This will be emphasized by the September 28 New Moon in Libra which opposes Chiron RX in Aries. New beginnings will be unbalanced as wounds, vulnerabilities, and awkwardness are confronted.

On September 26 Mercury in Libra squares Pluto RX in Capricorn, introducing a crisis between polite words versus hidden power. The dark truth beneath the pleasant façade will add an edge to all conversations.

Venus in Libra squares Saturn and the Nodes on September 25. All relationships and social impulses will be limited by rules or obligations. You won’t get what you want but you will be confronted with a crucial choice. A square to the Nodes brings you to a crossroads-the past must be concluded so you can move towards the future (the Cancer North Node). What lies ahead is more empathetic, nurturing or trusting but the choice will not be easy.

If you’re having trouble choosing, Saturn’s final conjunction with the South Node will make it clear that there’s no going back. The first two conjunctions occurred on April 30 and July 4, so this will be wrapping up an ongoing issue. This will take place on September 28, the same day as the New Moon. 

Aries

The Sun into your partnership sector and the New Moon opposite Chiron Rx in your sign prompt a raw new beginning in all one-on-one relationships.

Gemini

Jupiter/Neptune triggers the final episode of an enthusiastic but unrealistic promise, solution or approach to work/health. Mundane duties or obligations to others can be unclear as they continually expand and overwhelm you. It’s time to confront the crisis between what you believe versus what’s dissolving or undermining you – are you trying to ignore certain health or work realities? Look back to Jan 13th and June 16th to see how this issue began. 

Scorpio

Mercury/Venus in your hidden sector opposite Chiron Rx indicates that unacknowledged or hidden desires can trigger external wounds. Difficulties with work, health or obligations to others can stir up resentment or an hidden imbalance. What you don’t say will be crucial, and it’s possible that you won’t be comfortable coming out with the truth. As Mercury squares Saturn/South Node in your communication sector and the North Node in your sector of opportunities, open communication may be further restricted by official rules or a verbal/written decision. You’ll have to choose between sticking with what’s been defined versus looking forward towards something that’s unproven but hopeful. Education, travel, legal matters, publishing or faith in something new could present nurturing possibilities. 

Saturn direct in your communication sector suggests the next stage of a formal conclusion, official document or decision. Information will be crystallized and non-negotiable: what you move forward with now will stick. 

Jupiter/Neptune triggers the final episode of a hopeful or indulgent attraction, issue with money or illusion about what you deserve. Dating back to  Jan 13th and June 16th, you’re once again confronting the crisis between growth that’s good for you versus powerful but undermining illusions (or lack of boundaries). It may be time to accept what you can’t have or admit where you’ve pushed past the limits of your resources. Look back to Jan 13th and June 16th to see how this issue began. 

Sagittarius

Mercury/Venus in your social sector opposite Chiron Rx suggests some painful public discussions and reveals about an attraction or issue that’s close to your heart. Putting yourself out there can make you feel insecure/unloved/obvious. As Mercury squares Saturn/South Node in your sector of personal resources and the North Node in your sector of shared resources, you’ll be pushed to choose between old definitions of personal security versus putting your trust in someone (or a situation) that you can’t fully control. This can also be about publicly acknowledging your debts. 

Saturn direct in your sector of personal resources urges you to move forward with an area of discipline, control or self-sufficiency. It’s still up to you to set the boundaries and look out for yourself. 

Jupiter in your sign square Neptune in your domestic sector triggers the conclusion of a scenario dating back to Jan 13th and Jun 16th. Vague or confusing situations at home/with family can make your expectations unrealistic or push you to question where you should put your faith. Pay attention to what this crisis is revealing about hope versus  what’s dissolving. Your foundation is being transformed and you will not be able to go back to what was. 

Capricorn

Mercury/Venus in your career sector opposite Chiron Rx indicate touchy professional conversations and relationships. Exchanges with those in authority, or with those who impact your authority, can stir up deeply-rooted wounds. As Mercury squares Saturn/South Node in your sign and the North Node in your partnership sector, you’ll be confronted with the tension between your rules/attempt to control versus a softer, more empathetic approach. Consider how you can cooperate with another or wrap up a relationship/career issue in a way that’s more accepting/nurturing.

Saturn direct in your sign signals the next stage in a chapter that involves increased responsibilities, your efforts to control or a major ending in your life. Pressure could increase, but so can your authority. 

Jupiter/Neptune triggers the final episode of a hidden hope, promise or dream. Dating back to  Jan 13th and Jun 16th, you’ll be confronting the tension between hidden ideals versus undefined wishes. It may be time to let it go or make an effort to clarify and define what you’ve been holding back.

Aquarius

Mercury/Venus in your opportunities sector opposite Chiron Rx indicate uncomfortable conversations or announcements connected to travel, education, legal matters or publishing. A result can illuminate insecurities about your knowledge or fears that you’re not being heard. As Mercury squares Saturn/South Node in your hidden sector and the North Node in your sector of routine, you’ll be pushed to confront hidden fears and endings versus coming out with a more concrete examination of what you need to feel safe and satisfied. There may be a turning point around long-distance travel  versus your health. 

Saturn direct in your hidden sector marks the next stage of a slow, ongoing ending. A major part of your life (career, relationship, lifestyle) is winding down. Saturn Rx may have indicated a pause, but now the wheels are turning again. You know the end of the road is approaching, so you might as well prepare: there’s a new chapter waiting for you in 2020. 

Jupiter/Neptune triggers the final episode of an exaggerated social ideal or faith in friends/groups. Dating back to Jan 13th and Jun 16th, you’ll be confronting an illusion, disappointment or the reality behind the social bubble. It’s time to get real about public situations that have undermined your security (including the loaning of money). 

Pisces

Mercury/Venus in your sector of shared resources opposite Chiron Rx suggest delicate and painful conversations about shared finances, intimacy or psychological issues. Touching on the difficult stuff will be necessary, even as it raises fears about your vulnerabilities and financial insecurities.  As Mercury goes on to square the South Node/Saturn in your social sector and North Node in your sector of self-expression, what you share with or owe to another will push you to choose between public or peer rules versus stepping out via your own pride or talent. This could be about going public with something very private. 

Saturn direct in your social sector can indicate progress regarding your official, public designation or authority. Too. you could be moving closer to an ending based on social judgements or the realization that certain people are no longer “your people.”

Jupiter in your career sector square Neptune Rx in your sign triggers the final episode of a big, hopeful goal. Dating back to Jan 13th and Jun 16th, you’ll again confront a crisis or turning point regarding your dreams versus professional ideals. You could discover the truth about a job opportunity or deal with reactions to your exaggerated/unrealistic behaviour.

Overview

Mercury in Virgo trines Pluto Rx in Capricorn on September 8th, blending intensity with details. This is a powerful time to make corrections or verbalize a solution that’s deeply impactful. As Mercury conjoins Venus on September 13th, you can use this power to manifest a desired result. This is Virgo, so the desired result will be about what’s healthy, productive or loving in a practical way. 

Mercury and Venus both enter Venus-ruled Libra on September 14th, shifting the focus to social harmony, relationship strategies and diplomacy.

Sep 8th: Sun square Jupiter

Sept 10th: Sun opposite Neptune

Sept 12th: Mars square Jupiter

Sept 13th: Sun trine Pluto

Sept 14th: Mars opposite Neptune

The above aspects come together on the September 14th Full Moon (21 deg Pisces). The Virgo Sun conjoins Mars opposing the Pisces Moon and Neptune, and Jupiter squares the whole bunch. This is the culmination of the T-Square that began last week. This week, it’s all about actions (Mars).

Jupiter will expand Neptune’s dreams and delights, but will also push the questionable Mars/Neptune opposition further. The results of this Full Moon will involve exaggerated or unwise actions, although the initial prompt may be quite euphoric. The Virgo Sun’s opposition to Neptune (and square to Jupiter) further illuminates hope and illusion.

In order to prevent yourself from veering off course, use the Sun/Pluto trine to ground yourself – tap into the power of discipline, structure and details (Virgo) that you know are authentic. Avoid the temptation to get caught up in anything unproven. Yes, there’s potential for something big, but you have to navigate this very carefully.

Aries

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of routine can strengthen your focus on work or health issues as you dial into the most effective ways to improve your situation. Discussions with co-workers/management can go favourably. Watch for valuable assistance or advice. As Mercury and Venus enter your relationship sector, the situation can become more balanced as a partner offers hopeful (or loving) words. This can be a harmonious exchange. In some cases, a new relationship can move forward along socially acceptable.

The Full Moon in your hidden sector draws your attention to the contrast between reality and fantasy, obligations and escapism. A secret hope will have to be confronted, and if you’re not careful work or health efforts can be undermined. Tap into the potential for limitless growth in a positive way by empowering yourself through practical, deliberate actions – hows can you make this dream happen in the real world? Do the necessary work while avoiding the temptation to slide into risky behaviour.

Taurus

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of self-expression can empower creative ideas, romantic words or your ability to gain attention via what you have to say. Your ideas can be persuasive and magnetic, especially if you verbalize specific details and truths. As Mercury and Venus enter your sector of routine, watch for practical and balanced ways to implement ideas. Work and health matters can benefit. 

The Full Moon in your social sector can illuminate the truth behind a romantic fantasy or signal a public launch/performance. Your efforts may be a bit risky but will certainly grab attention. However, be aware that you can push a situation too – results may dissolve unexpectedly. Focus on real-world change rather than exalted ideals-or the influence of others –  a social wish could be very disappointing (social media/friends/public opinion can be seductive).  

Gemini

Aspects to Mercury in your domestic sector can strengthen intimate bonds with a domestic partner via practical but loving conversations. Attention to financial details (especially home finances) and a focus on repair, helping a family member or tackling issues from the past can help you access deeper resources and emotional stability. Too, there can be very good news about a mortgage, home purchase or home business. As Mercury and Venus move into your sector of self-expression, the mood will shift to something lighter and more celebratory. 

The Full Moon in your career sector can deliver enthusiastic but questionable results involving job, your professional image, a home business or future goals in general. A partner can boost your hopes and ambitions, but keep an eye on the tension between dreams versus their ideals – the two won’t mesh and you could find your actions  undermined by misguided promises. A deceptive professional issue can be potentially damaging. When in doubt, tap into the deeper well of truth- a  gut instinct, the knowledge that something must “die” or a profound transformation in the power balance between you and another.

The Full Moon in your opportunities sector can deliver enthusiastic but uneven results in the areas of travel, education, legal matters, publishing or faith. An answer, idea or promise will be expansive, and there may be an energetic push to get your point across or assert your beliefs. However, the actions that you take (based on what you think you know) can be misguided or exaggerated – don’t overlook the details in your rush to jump forward. Tap into a partner’s strength or deep transformation to see the truth of what’s happening – look at the facts rather than the big picture.

As Mercury and Venus enter your communication sector, your ability to negotiate and charm will increase. 

The Full Moon in your sector of shared resources illuminates an expansive result involving  shared finances, intimacy or psychological issues.

There could be exciting or dreamy situations, but the opposition to Mars in your sign also hints at projected illusions or false hopes. Watch your reactions as they could be misguided.

The key is keeping yourself grounded by remembering how you’ve been empowering yourself a you take your talents, self-worth and pride seriously.  

Libra

Aspects to Mercury in your hidden sector can add focus and power to a secret idea/desire or undeveloped goal. Put what you want into words and see what happens, especially once Mercury and Venus enter your sign. What was hidden will become public, giving you a confident, charismatic voice and the vision to make it happen. Good for bringing anything out into the open in a pleasing way. 

The Full Moon in your sector of routine can expose a loophole or surprising workaround in a health or work scenario. Expansive news or knowledge can drive this discovery, but keep an eye on misguided or unclear motivations: behind-the-scenes actions can be undermining if you’re not careful.

Your focus on what matters most can drive the energy of what you say and convince others. This can result in potent solutions that others appreciate and give you credit for.

Sagittarius

Aspects to Mercury in your career sector suggest a lucrative conversation with management, or an opportunity to make a beneficial professional announcement.

Be very careful, especially regarding your actions, as what you think you know may push you to take an unwise risk or fight for an illusionary cause.

Overview

This week presents a configuration called a T-Square. The stellium of planets in Virgo oppose Neptune in Pisces, and the Virgo/Pisces opposition squares Jupiter in Sagittarius (this is part of building Jupiter/Neptune square).

Optimism, expansion and idealism will exaggerate the blurring effect that Neptune has on details and facts. There could be an intensified desires to fix what’s not broken or ignore (escape from) problems you don’t want to deal with. 

The energy can be shifty, anxious, euphoric or a combination of all three. 

The T-Square will extend to September 14th as Mars in Virgo is activated. But for this week, Mercury, the Sun and Venus in Virgo will start things off. 

Here are the specific dates. I have bolded the aspects involved in the T-Square:

Sept 2nd: Venus square Jupiter, Sun conjunct Mars

Sept 3rd: Sun conjunct Mercury, Mercury conjunct Mars, Venus trine the South Node

Sep 4th: Venus opposite Neptune

Sep 5th: Mercury trine Saturn

Sep 6th: Mercury square Jupiter, Sun trine Saturn, Venus trine Pluto, Mercury trine South Node

Sep 7th: Mercury opposite Neptune

Sep 8th: Sun square Jupiter, Mercury trine Pluto, Sun trine the South Node

You’ll notice some more grounding aspects in this list. The Sun/Mercury/Mars conjunction will illuminate the power of precise ideas put into action. Of course, you’ll be sailing into the T-Square so you’ll have to ensure that you maintain your focus on what’s real. If you start to lose your sense of direction, the trines to Saturn, Pluto and the South Node are there to keep you in check- stick with the proof and the rules. Use caution and tap into the power of what’s culminating (there will be an issue from the past coming to a head). Rely on that when you get distracted or confused by Jupiter/Neptune.

Find your anchor.

Aries

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your sector of routine will illuminate a specific problem, correction or detail that’s ripe for improvement in a health or work context. You’ll be motivated to act on practical information and fix what’s broken. 

However, the T- Square activates your sector of routine (Virgo planets) sector of opportunities (Jupiter) and your hidden sector (Neptune). The above issues can be exaggerated as symptoms flare up or a hopeful cure/surge of possibility about what you might accomplish encourages you to take on more than is sensible. Hidden matters will  blur the facts – use caution before you jump to conclusions or say “Yes.” 

Trines from your sector of routine to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you. Focus on transformations, endings and rules/authority involving career or future goals. Anchor yourself with what you know you must do/wrap up, the authority you have or your interactions with management. This could be an issue from the past or result involving your professional life. 

Taurus

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your sector of self-expression can boost your confidence and desire to pursue a new attraction or put your talents on display. A key conversation or piece of exciting news will demand action. 

However, the T- Square activates your sector of self-expression (Virgo planets) sector of shared resources (Jupiter) and your social sector (Neptune). It will be easy to overspend, place your faith in someone questionable or take a romantic/celebratory situation too far. Others can undermine your boundaries and will. Before you speak out, make sure your facts are not based on unproven hopes. Be very careful with debts, loans, taxes or your partner’s finances. 

Trines from your sector of self-expression to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you. A situation involving travel, education, legal matters, publishing or an official manifestation of faith can deliver long-awaited results. Future goals are defined and something taking shape (or ending). Tap into this and keep yourself on the right track. This could also involve what you’ve learned in a official capacity. 

Gemini

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your domestic sector hi-light a key conversation with family or information from the past that you’ll be motivated to act on. Relocation, a home business  or a passionate/angry discussion with a domestic partner can prompt you to see what’s broken and ready for improvement. Too, this can apply to a home renovation project. 

However, the T- Square activates your domestic sector (Virgo planets) your partnership sector (Jupiter) and your career sector (Neptune). Relationship ideals and unrealistic career goals will exaggerate the above issues while blurring the content of your discussion. Too, facts about moving or construction can be unclear. Before you take another step, slow down and carefully analyze the facts plus the reality of  future goals. Don’t allow a partner to push you too far. When evaluating career issues, focus on facts rather than wishes. 

Trines from your domestic sector to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you if you tap into boundaries, responsibilities and a necessary ending in the areas of shared finances, intimacy or psychological issues. It may be time to draw a line between you and another in order to bolster your security/self-esteem. Too, the deeper parts of a relationship (including commitment) may need to be redefined. 

Cancer

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your communication sector urges you to take action on a decision or conversation. A specific idea or solution can be delivered with force and clarity. Also good for pushing to the meat of an issue and hammering your point home. 

However, the T- Square activates your communication sector (Virgo planets) your sector of routine(Jupiter) and your opportunities sector (Neptune). Enthusiasm about the above (especially in the context of work or health) can see you promising or asking for too much. While your intentions may be honourable, your desire to help or do more can see you overestimating. Don’t take shortcuts or ignore vague details.

Trines from your communication sector to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you as you connect with a parter’s rules/support or go along with an official commitment, relationship ending or partnership focus. Results around your connection with another will be concrete – this is what you can count on. 

Leo

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your sector of personal resources encourage you to pursue a financial or emotional opportunity. This is about acting on what’s best, based on practical information. 

However, the T- Square activates your sector of personal resources (Virgo planets) your sector of self-expression (Jupiter) and your sector of shared resources (Neptune). There may be a temptation to push too hard (for what you want) or spend too much. Background influences (or the influence of another) can encourage you to go further than you normally would – be careful if you’re loaning money or pooling your resources. Also, watch that your enthusiasm does not undermine your values and security. 

Trines from your sector of personal resources to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you if you pay attention to practical rules and obligations in the areas of health or work. What must be attended to, or the results of previous work/habits, can keep you focused on what’s best for your security. Tap into the death of old routines and the emergence of a new regime. 

Virgo

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your sign give you motivation and information – you’ve got the smarts and the will to act on what you know. Excellent for pushing towards what matters most or getting your point across with passion, clarity and logic. This could be about taking a stand on something you’ve discovered or finally taking action on a problem. 

However, the T- Square activates your sign (Virgo planets) your domestic sector  (Jupiter) and your relationship sector (Neptune). Issues involving family, a home business or domestic partnership will exaggerate your usual approach to problems and perfection. You may be pushed to take on more, offer more assistance or worry more about an issue. Before you jump in with your suggestions or “clean up” reactions, make sure that you’re seeing the full story. Also, consider that a partner or family member may not want your well-intentioned help. 

Trines from your sign to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you as you focus on a creative, romantic or self-expression issue that’s coming to a head. What you want (or want to create) is ready to morph or end, depending on how valid the issue is to your current status. Get real about what talents/potentials you have.

Libra

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your hidden sector illuminate a secret or gut instinct that you feel compelled to act on. Too, unacknowledged motivations can be clarified and quantified. 

However, the T- Square activates your hidden sector (Virgo planets) your communication sector  (Jupiter) and your sector of routine (Neptune). Illusions and overly optimistic ideals about what you want can lead you down the wrong path. Words may be passionate but will be distorted by unacknowledged delusion. Be careful about what you’re saying or learning (especially in the area of health, work or obligations) – some facts will not be accurate. 

Trines from your hidden sector to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you if you tap into change and responsibilities at home/with family. Boundaries and deconstructions of the past are essential – pay attention to what’s shutting down or demanding your attention, especially regarding parents or memories.

Scorpio

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your social sector activate a public argument, statement or passionate declaration based on facts. Too, this can be a moment of clarity regarding a friendship or group association. 

However, the T- Square activates your social sector (Virgo planets) your sector of personal resources  (Jupiter) and your sector of self-expression (Neptune). The drive to display something may be distorted by overenthusiastic ideals/desires. A public attraction can end up being “too much.” Use caution regarding what you put out there. 

Trines from your social sector to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you as you tap into specific facts and verbal/written rules. An official issue may be ending or delivering a result – anchor yourself with this as it will shift your focus in the right direction. 

Sagittarius

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your career sector expose a key conversation with management or detail about your future path. You may be motivated to move in a specific direction or make corrections regarding your future goals. 

However, the T- Square activates your career sector (Virgo planets) your sign (Jupiter) and your domestic sector (Neptune). There may be some idealistic or enthusiastic thoughts that push you to say more/hope for more. Slow down and pay attention to the details – your hopes may clash with what’s realistically allowed. 

Trines from your career sector to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you as you focus on rules and discipline regarding earned money and values. Tap into what you know you have to change and restrict, as well as endings/results around how you look after yourself. 

Capricorn

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your opportunities sector encourage you to reach out regarding education, travel, legal matters or publishing. This is the time to initiate based on what you believe or want to expand. 

However, the T- Square activates your opportunities sector (Virgo planets) your hidden sector (Jupiter) and your communication sector (Neptune). Unacknowledged or secret issues can throw you off track. Be cautious about what’s suggested when there’s no solid proof. If you can’t prove it, back off. 

Trines from your sector of opportunities to Saturn/South Node/Pluto in your sign say that you have the power to focus and conclude an important issue. It’s up to you to lay  down the rules or say “enough” because you’re approaching the end of the line. You call the shots. 

Aquarius

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your sector of shared resources suggest new developments regarding debts, taxes, loans or your partner’s finances. A new discovery regarding shared finances or psychological issues can reveal what you want to avoid.

However, the T- Square activates your sector of shared resources sector (Virgo planets),your social sector (Jupiter) and your sector of personal resources (Neptune)so you’ll have to be cautious regarding the influence that others have on money and values. You may overspend or give away too much, thanks to external prompts. 

Trines from your sector of shared resources to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you if you connect with gut feelings or hidden endings/instincts. A private ending or quiet but certain sense that something is coming to a head can point you in the right direction.

Pisces

Sun/Mercury/Mars in your partnership sector illuminate a key announcement or conversation from another. A new or existing relationship can be energized by a partner’s actions/anger or drive to make improvements. 

However, the T- Square activates your partnership  sector (Virgo planets),your career sector (Jupiter) and Neptune in your sign. There’s a risk of projecting ideals, anxieties or delusions onto another. Your enthusiasm for the future is a good thing, but unrealistic hopes will be distorted by what you imagine anohter is offering or taking away. Too, their deception can undermine you. 

Trines from your relationship sector to Saturn/South Node/Pluto can ground you if you connect with what you know about a partner (romantic or business). Results and limits in a social setting can focus the issue and confirm what another has to offer.

Overview

Venus enters Virgo on August 21st. Relationships, money, values and self-esteem are filtered through the lens of perfection and improvement. Venus in Virgo loves to fix and fixate on the details, and her conjunction with Mars (action) on August 24th can indicate a new beginning where you get what you want, based on your ability to focus and do the correct thing. Venus and Mars will make an awkward inconjunct Chiron Rx in Aries on the 25th, underlining the constant Virgo theme of “not quite good enough” – there will be flaws that can’t be fixed but this shouldn’t prevent you from going after what you want. 

The Sun enters Virgo on August 23rd, and the season of purity, perfection and service begins. Virgo zeros in on what’s wrong, severs what doesn’t work and tries to upgrade everything. This is the time of year to get organized and get it right, while discarding what isn’t healthy for you.

Mercury in Leo trines Jupiter in Sag on August 21st, indicating optimistic, outgoing words and thoughts. But Mercury’s inconjuncts to Saturn Rx in Capricorn on the 21st and Neptune Rx in Pisces in the 22nd suggest that limits and illusions will have to be accounted for.

Aries

Venus into your sector of routine, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, activates favourable prospects in work or health. You’ll be motivated to do what’s best (regarding diet, exercise or self-improvement) or you’ll want to offer your best to someone else. But the inconjunct to Chiron Rx in your sign suggests positive developments can hi-light vulnerabilities- you won’t be able to completely fix an ongoing problem. Acknowledge the wound but don’t allow it to undermine an effective solution; you don’t have to get it perfect.

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of self-expression can encourage you to look for more or speak out with optimism (in a creative or romantic matter) but be aware of official limits/rules plus hidden doubts or illusions. External realities and background fantasies will have to be accounted for so you don’t lose focus on the main opportunity. 

The Sun into your sector of routine hi-lights practical efforts and getting organized. What you have to attend to (regarding others and yourself) will become a major focus. 

Taurus

Venus into your sector of self-expression, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, suggests getting what you want in the areas of new romance, creativity or children/pregnancy. This can be a celebratory influence as you attract through focused, careful actions. But hidden or acknowledged wounds can trigger a thread of doubt or fear – don’t ignore what’s happening in the background but don’t lose sight of positive developments. 

Aspects to Mercury in your domestic sector promise bold plans for home and family, especially involving domestic finances. This is about thinking bigger and better, but you’ll also have to acknowledge a tendency to reach too far – legal rules/boundaries must be obeyed, despite the temptation to listen to what others are suggesting. Keep your plans optimistic but realistic. 

The Sun into your sector of self-expression can boost your joy, celebration and the sense that you’re doing it right. Any work that you’ve put into a desired goal will be favourably  hi-lighted. 

Gemini

Venus into your domestic sector, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, can activate favourable issues with family, a relocation, home business or a domestic partnership. What you do and what you want will come together and your domestic actions should be received favourably. Good for home improvements or addressing family problems. But keep an eye out for external influences (friends or the public) – social anxieties or the wounds of others may trigger some interference. Or, you may have to adjust domestic goals with social issues. 

Aspects to Mercury in your communication sector suggest buoyant conversations with a partner involving big promises and shared ideals. However, background restrictions involving finances, intimacy or psychological issues will have to be be accounted for, as well as unrealistic future dreams. 

The Sun into your domestic sector emphasizes the core details of home and family, especially matters that need to be improved.

Cancer

Venus into your communication sector, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, suggests that words with actions can lead to something very good. Excellent for delivering your message with forceful charm, receiving good news or taking steps to put a plan into action. Attention to detail is key. However, you’ll find that awkward career issues involving success or ambition will have to be worked around: you may have to accommodate doubts or approach certain matters with sensitivity if this is a business conversation. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of personal resources can deliver hopeful news regarding finances or hook you into a lucrative work opportunity. But you’ll also be dealing with the rules/limits of a partner and misguided ideals about new opportunities. Stay focused on what you know is viable and try not to get distracted by “what if’s” or unproven hopes. 

The Sun into your communication sector amplifies all exchanges of information with an emphasis on specifics, improvements and saying it right. 

Leo

Venus into your sector of personal resources, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, favours a financial boost or increase in self-esteem and security. But the key will be taking  detailed action aimed at exactly what you want. Meaning, you must have a specific game plan that involves an upgrade. Be aware that you’ll have to make adjustments with some difficult issues around travel, education, legal matters or publishing,

Aspects to Mercury in your sign can urge you to come out and say it with pride and pizazz – this influence will enable you to get your message across in a charming and convincing way, and everyone will hear it. But don’t forget to factor in rules/restrictions involving health, work or obligations (you may not be able to say absolutely everything that you want) and keep an eye on the tendency to spin some inaccurate stories. Fantasy and white lies can creep in, even though you have the best intentions. 

The Sun into your sector of personal resources illuminates the specifics around earned money, your values and what’s best for you. 

Virgo

Venus into your sign, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, gifts you with attraction power plus the motivation to do something with it. This is your moment to act and get what you want, assuming you’ve worked out the specifics (of course you have). Excellent for starting a new and better lifestyle, relationship/approach to relationships or self-image. The inconjunct to Chiron in your sector of shared resources can trigger some hidden insecurities regarding shared finances or intimacy, and you will find that your efforts are not completely flawless. There will be some awkward moments and reasons to question certain financial issues. No situation is ever perfect but as long as you keep your eye on the details and proceed carefully, you should be ok. 

Aspects to Mercury in your hidden sector can amplify a secret idea/goal or see you getting your hopes up about a domestic matter. Unspoken thoughts can be undermined by illusions that you’ve projected onto someone else, and by fears about your worthiness. As long as you’re prepared to honour real-world obligations and avoid getting caught up in another’s fantasies/weakness/addictions, you can move forward with this unspoken potential. 

The Sun into your sign means this is your time of the year: the spotlight is on you, which also means your insecurities, worries and perceived flaws will be magnified. Now is the time to take stock of whether you’ve worked on making it better or whether you got caught up in the endless loop of fault-finding, criticism and not being ready to start because everything is not “just so”. The Venus/Mars conjunction in your sign says there is no time like the present to get started.

Libra

Venus into your hidden sector, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, can activate a secret attraction or desire. There’s a mix of unlimited potential and the urge to reach for something perfect, or something that inspires sacrifice. Use caution, because another’s wounds, or your painful issues with a relationship, will impact what’s happening. Consider if this potential will undermine or uplift you, and if you’re fully acknowledging the wounds that will be exposed. Your actions could be misguided or inspired – it’s a fine line, so tread carefully. 

Aspects to Mercury in your social sector can open up encouraging communication with friends, groups or the public in general. Good for making an announcement or networking, but you’ll have to balance this with an area of confusion or weakness (in a work or health scenario) plus domestic obligations. Some of what you say will be defined by heavy responsibilities at home. 

The Sun into your hidden sector illuminates all matters that are secret or undeveloped. Issues in your blindspot, or areas that need more time to manifest are the theme, as well as stepping back to concentrate on personal matters. 

Scorpio

Venus into your social sector, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, indicates a very public and positive manifestation. A new attraction, social/business activity or new beginning involving your public image will depend on your precise actions. This is positive for the most part, but you will have to factor in difficulties in a work or health scenario. Certain issues will not turn out perfectly, and you may find yourself unprepared. Too, public attention can hi-light personal flaws, but that’s no reason to hold back. Just proceed carefully and leave room for mistakes. 

Aspects to Mercury in your career sector suggest an encouraging conversation with management or lucrative information about a job/your professional image. Money and security matters can be boosted, but you’ll have to balance out this info with the temptation to get caught up in unrealistic dreams. Too, you could end up saying too much. There will be certain rules you must follow and some official guidelines you can’t ignore. 

The Sun’s move into your social sector illuminates matters with friends, groups, your public image and your place in the collective. There can be a focus on exactly where you fit in or where you notice public flaws in yourself or others. 

Sagittarius

Venus into your career sector, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, emphasizes efforts to improve and attract with your future in mind. Ambitions can come to fruition via a professional relationship, new job or tweaks to your professional image. However, a success can also emphasize where you still feel less than (talented, attractive, capable). Acknowledge the insecurity but focus on what you can do. 

Aspects to Mercury in your opportunities sector (including the trine to Jupiter in your sign) encourage you to have faith and explore in the areas of education, legal matters, travel, publishing or moving beyond your comfort zone. The more you consider new opportunities/knowledge, the more will come your way. However, know that an illness or area of weakness at home/with family, plus certain restrictions involving finances, will have to be integrated into what you’re learning/saying. This is about optimism  with a shot of realism on the side. 

The Sun into your career sector hi-lights future goals and current ambitions. Small changes and a general refinement of matters in this area will have a bigger impact than one, radical transformation. Take it step by step. 

Capricorn

Venus into your opportunities sector, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, looks  good for making it happen in the areas of travel, education, legal matters, long-distance romance or publishing. A distant want/love can be made real with your careful but faith-based actions. However, family issues or domestic troubles will have to be accounted for as they will be emphasized by the good things you attract. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of shared resources suggests good news or expansive (but private) discussions involving shared finances or intimacy. Watch for a background surge of optimism and confidence. However, the inconjunct to Saturn Rx in your sign will narrow your focus a bit as rules/obligations must be factored in. And, make sure you keep your eyes on what’s realistic and proven – there will be a slight temptation to get caught up in what if’s or dreams. 

The Sun’s move into your opportunities sector hi-lights the step-by-step path to what’s new or distant. You can get there if you proceed carefully and take note of all the details. Faith is based on concrete examples of improvement.

Aquarius

Venus into your sector of shared resources, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, suggests a very positive development in the areas of loans, taxes, you partner’s finances, intimacy or psychological issues. Actions that are focused on digging deeper, getting real and targeting the precise (albeit uncomfortable) issue can uncover more resources, intimacy/passion or self-esteem. Conversations/information will hit some sore spots, and some of the details may remain “broken.” But this is part of the process of getting closer to someone, developing trust or finding your hidden strengths. 

Aspects to Mercury in your partnership sector indicate buoyant conversations with another that open new social doors or boost your public image. Excellent for all relationships (public, private, romantic or platonic) but be aware that background limits (or an ongoing ending) will have to be factored in. And, don’t lose sight of the realities of your financial situation or self-esteem issues: consider the line between having faith and compromising your values. 

The Sun’s move into your sector of shared resources illuminates what you cannot fully control. Some details can be adjusted and refined, but others will be there to test your ability to accept your limits. 

Pisces

Venus into your relationship sector, and the Venus/Mars conjunction, can indicate a passionate new partnership or positive moments in an existing relationship. Another’s actions will make you aware of how your love life can be improved, how your standards can be elevated or exactly what you want and don’t want. You can attract through your focus on what’s best/healthiest, but you’ll also be dealing with self-esteem issues. Know that a partner is not meant to boost your self-esteem (that’s up to you). In some cases, you’ll be dealing with the dynamics of attempting to “fix” another. 

Aspects to Mercury in your sector of routine suggest good news about work/career as your solutions expand your future potential. Too, you can become aware of more work opportunities or ways to improve your situation. But the inconjunct to Neptune in your sign is a caution to keep your eye on what’s real as opposed to what’s hoped for or suspected. And, external rules or judgments will also have to be acknowledged. 

The Sun’s move into your partnership sector emphasizes the details of your one-on-one relationships. Pay attention to what you usually overlook.
