All times Pacific.

Friends, we have a very busy week of aspects ahead. Yesterday’s Venus trine Jupiter indicates the potential for harmony, joy, festivity and opportunity in the first half of this week, but there are so many cross currents we may find it difficult to experience feelings like love and appreciation. Pluto now dwelling in the final degree of Capricorn will be stationary direct 10/11. Until then we’ll be experiencing an increased atmosphere of tension and that feeling that an era is ending.

Sunday 9/15 only lunar aspects are exact. Aldous Huxley wrote: “There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self.”

Mon 9/16 Venus opposition Chiron is exact mid-afternoon. Here is a rare opportunity for healing. With Venus still trine Jupiter a little joy can go a long way. Chiron can indicate health issues. A little extra caution couldn’t hurt. Making time for romance and the arts can help us attain greater well being. Acts of kindness can can help not only others but ourselves. Actions taken to improve the lives of women you care about are indicated, so be nice to all children of Venus.

Tue 9/17 the full moon lunar eclipse at 25 Pisces is exact at 7:34 PM. Lunar eclipses are said to indicate endings. Pisces as the last sign of the zodiac also indicates endings. With Mercury opposition Saturn tomorrow we may see news this week that clearly demonstrates that theme of “end of an era.” In our own lives, for those who already understand how they’d like to go into Pluto into Aquarius, it’s still not the right time to push blindly ahead. Time for reflection. Attention to where adjustments can be made. The long view of progress since 2008. Don’t suppress understanding about what is ending, but also recognize what is beginning. To stay emotionally attached to what is ending will make this a more difficult time.

Wed 9/18 Mercury opposition Saturn is exact about two hours after midnight. This can be a pessimistic, critical aspect, indicating potential mental exhaustion, but also giving a keen eye for organizing and simplifying. Doom scrolling is not the best way to express it. Quiet reflection and deep breathing can help us process our thoughts and feelings about where we’ve been and where we’re going.

Thu 9/19 sun trine Uranus is exact not long after dawn, a potentially liberating aspect, a new way of doing things, a perspective that helps us step into the future unencumbered by outdated habits. There could be detours, surprises, instead of feeling irritated by them, see what they show you. Have a look around at the unexpected. Seneca wrote: “We never reflect how pleasant it is to ask for nothing.”

Fri 9/20 Venus inconjunct Uranus is exact in the late morning followed by sun opposition Neptune in the late afternoon. The inconjunction can indicate frustrating and unexpected developments in romance, finances, and the arts. Interruptions may prevent us from enjoying ourselves. For instance, a food adventure could lead to a loss of well being. The sun Neptune opposition warns us away from intoxication and escapism. This aspect can indicate confusion and exhaustion. Not exactly a great date night.

Sat 9/21 is the busiest day of the week. Mercury square Jupiter is exact about two hours after midnight. Venus inconjunct Neptune is exact early afternoon. Mercury inconjunct Chiron is exact in the evening. Sun trine Pluto is exact about 45 minutes before midnight. Quite a roller coaster of a weekend. The Mercury Jupiter square can indicate overly optimism, we may over do, over eat, say too much, spend too much, or get irritated because someone said something that cast shade on our good time. The Venus Neptune inconjunction continues the theme of health issues having to do with trying to find the balance between creativity and love on the one hand and on the other fantasy, charity, sympathy, and confusion. Take it slow and easy. Mercury inconjunct Chiron is a health related double whammy, since inconjunctions and Chiron can both indicate health issues. It might be a good time to take a little extra care to avoid unnecessary contagious sickness. We want to pay attention to any messages the body is sending about areas of discomfort. Can they be correlated to bad habits or the absence of good ones? Sun trine Pluto can help us see where reforms and repairs are called for. Facing the shadow, our fears, our hidden desires, can help us navigate all these aspects. We need all our faculties to get the best out of September’s last barrage of health related aspects. Next week is much quieter.

Sun 9/22 Fall begins as the Autumn equinox is exact at 5:44 AM when the sun enters Libra. Libra can indicate that romantic Autumn feeling. Spend some extra time with someone you love romantically. Or make some art or music. But with Venus square Pluto exact mid-afternoon love and creativity may face challenges. Suppressed indignation, hurt feelings that have festered, suspicions, obsessions, can turn what was supposed to be fun into something difficult. But powerfully cathartic experiences, even rebirths are possible. Avoid force and ultimatums. Be genuine and listen attentively. Venus enters Scorpio at 7:36 PM, which may or may not help matters. Venus in Libra tends to avoid high intensity dives into the depths, but Venus in Scorpio craves just that sort of thing. Grace and simple courtesy at these times can help us avoid unnecessary trouble. William Hazlitt wrote: “Grace has been defined as the outward expression of the inward harmony of the soul.”
