As we enter September, we head into eclipse season, a season where we are instructed to relinquish some measure of control. This is easier said than done as the sun transits I-know-best-Virgo, making us all consummate micromanagers. The key to this month lies neither in clinging to order nor abandoning it entirely. Find the middle way – the space between two extremes where surrender feels satisfying. It’s okay to admit that you don’t have all the answers: nobody does. But you do have SOME answers, and the knowledge and experience that you’ve cultivated can steer you through a crisis or two. NOTABLE TRANSITS September 1/2 – Uranus is Retrograde: Uranus begins its five-month backslide, stimulating intuitive a-ha! moments. This is Uranus’ final Rx before it enters Gemini year! September 1/2 – Pluto enters Capricorn: Pluto enters Capricorn for the final time. We are in the two-and-a-half-month homestretch. Reflect on all you’ve learned during Pluto's sixteen-year Capricorn passage. September 4/5 – Mars enters Cancer: The next eight weeks prompt Crab-like attacks. Poke and retreat. Trust your instincts, but avoid allowing your shifting moods to dictate your decisions. September 9 – Mercury enters Virgo: Mercury re-enters Virgo following its Rx, inspiring improved plans. Second time IS the charm after all. September 22/23 – The sun enters Libra: balance and harmony are our objectives for the next month. Our relationships reflect facets of ourselves. What do YOUR relationships say about you? September 22/23 – Venus enters Scorpio: play to your passions during this three-and-a-half-week transit. Superficial connections fade into the background. Romantic feelings intensify. September 26/27 – Mercury enters Libra: diplomacy is our aim, but realistically, making too many concessions is our game. Compromise requires BOTH parties to play fair.
