Did you score a career triumph at the end of last month? If you did, expect the finishing touches to be put on on Oct 3, when Mercury in your work house will trine Neptune in your career house. You may tie up any outstanding paperwork at this time. Good thing too cause the new moon falls shortly after, on October 5th, in your house of true love, and my is it a doozy! It’s opposing Uranus in your house of hopes and dreams and squaring Pluto in your 8th house of other people’s money. You may fight with a lover over money, or funding on a creative project could go sour. Alternatively, you may be struggling with whether or not you want that best guy (or girl) friend of yours to be something more…can your relationship go from platonic to romantic? One particular day to keep an eye on is October 13th, when the Sun in your house of love and creativity will square Jupiter in your house of income. Again, money is in the picture- you may have to spend a bunch on a child or creative endeavor, or perhaps your love isn’t bringing home his share of the bacon. This is not a new influence, as Uranus and Pluto have been in a square since June 2012. You may have been trying to get funding for a long term dream, or perhaps a friendship is going through a transformation. Whatever is going on, expect it to continue to morph and change over the years until 2015. You may have some resolution on the 18th, when a lunar eclipse in Aries falls in this same house of hopes and dreams/friendship. A project or commitment close to your heart should culminate at this time, especially if you have a planet or point at 26 degrees of Aries. Alternatively, a friend may make a big announcement. Moving on, your ruler, Mercury, is set to cause all kinds of problems this month. Mercury will conjunct Saturn on the 8th and 30th in your house of work and health. Saturn has been moving through this sector since October 2012. It can often be a relief when Saturn changes sign. It takes 2 1/2 years to move through each house, and by the end of the transit most people are ready for it to move on already! You previously had Saturn in your 5th house, which can be a real bummer. The 5th house rules love, creativity, and most importantly FUN, so you may have felt a little somber at times. Now, Saturn is in your 6th house, which isn’t much of a picnic either! I certainly hope Saturn isn’t bringing to light any medical issues, although that can certainly happen (I discovered a long-term medical issue when Saturn transited my solar 6th house). Most likely you are feeling an increased pressure at work. When I had Saturn transiting my natal 6th house, I found myself working full time and going to grad school full-time. I worked all day and night, including weekends, and for about 9 months it seemed I barely had time to brush my teeth! Mercury conjunct Saturn could manifest in a few different ways, as Mercury is both your ruler and also rules your 4th house of home. You or a family member may fall ill, or a work project could go off the rails. To make matters worse, Mercury will go retrograde in your work house on the 21st, and won’t go direct until November 12th. Mercury retrogrades always affect you the most since it’s your ruler. You may have to re-do work that you thought was finished, or you may encounter staffing or office changes on the job. Alternatively, you may wish to examine your health routines to make sure you’ll doing all you can to stay healthy and fit. If joining a gym is on the agenda, please wait until after Mercury goes direct to make a commitment. Same goes for any job hunting. Any commitment you make at this time will need to be revised, as you’ll find the conditions won’t be what you were hoping for. Now for some good news- Venus moves into your house of committed partnerships on the 8th, injecting new love and life into a romantic relationship. Whether you’re newly dating or been married for a decade, this is sure to put a little pep in your step. Even better, on the 17th, Venus will trine Uranus in your 3rd house of travel and communication. You might say “I love you” for the first time, or perhaps receive a hand-written poem from a lover. Although it’s a little close to Mercury retrograde for my liking, this could be a wonderful time to take a short trip to a nearby B&B for some romantic relaxation. One day to watch out for though is October 10- on this day Venus will square Neptune in your house of career. Work demands may trump pleasure on this day, or perhaps your boss scolds you for taking time off to be with your boo. Home matters will get an energetic boost when Mars moves into this area on the 16th. You might decide to move or do renovations, or perhaps you have family visiting from out of town. On the 20th, Mars will oppose Neptune in your career house, once more pitting your personal house against your career house. You might be so focused on home drama that you’re neglecting work obligations. Luckily on the 31st, Mars will trine Pluto in your house of other people’s money, and a home loan or re-financing option may come through. Alternatively, you could receive an inheritance you didn’t see coming, or a family member comes into a windfall. Happy Halloween to you!

Did a dream close to your heart come true last month? Hopefully it did, and hopefully you had fun, cause this month, it’s time to get down to business. There’s a new moon in your 6th house of work on Oct 5th, indicating some changes in your job are on the horizon. You might get a new work space or assistant, or perhaps change jobs entirely. Unfortunately this new moon is opposed to Uranus in your 12th house of secrets and closure, so you might not like whatever changes are coming. To top it off, Pluto in your 9th house of broad horizons is squaring both the new moon and Uranus. You could be struggling with whether or not your work matches your value system, or you might have problems with a foreign client. If you have to travel for work, these are really not good aspects, and I advise you push your trip to November if you can. Another alternative is that you may be feeling like you’re underperforming at work. Perhaps you put your heart and soul into a project that totally flopped.  Or maybe you’re dealing with some underhanded co-workers or bad working conditions and unsure of how to move forward. One day specifically to watch out for is October 13th, when the Sun in your work sector will square Jupiter in your house of communication. A contract might fall apart, or you may get into a disagreement with a co-worker. Pluto has been tearing through your house of values and beliefs since 2008, and Uranus has been in your house of closure since 2011. Since June of 2012, these two planets have been in a wrestling match, pitting these two houses against each other. Your value system may be undergoing an overhaul, and you might be digging deeply within your psyche to find out exactly who you are. You might want to do yoga or start a meditation practice, because this is an influence that will last until 2015. Another area of your life that seems to be under fire is a close relationship, either in business or love. Saturn has been in this sector since 2012, putting the pressure on this relationship to see if it can stand it. April born Tauruses are finally feeling some relief, but early May bulls are in the thick of it. In a few months, later-born Tauruses will feel the glare as well. You might be in the process of getting married or starting a business partnership, and things could feel serious (and seriously lacking in fun!). Alternatively, the cracks in an existing relationship might be showing, and they could turn out to be too large to repair. If neither of these apply, you may just be feeling run-down or lacking enthusiasm, or stuck in a situation that you won’t be able to get out of until Saturn moves out of orbit. A few days where this pressure might be activated are on the 8th and 30th, when Mercury in this same sector (Scorpio) will conjunct Saturn (it will happen one more time, on November 26th). Mercury rules your houses of income and children, so you may be fighting with a spouse about money or your child. Alternatively, you could feel you’re not getting paid enough by your employer, or you might be having “creative differences” on a work project. When Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st, you will have to go back and review any of these issues. Things might not get sorted out until next month, on Nov 12th, when Mercury goes direct again. I would urge you not to take a new job or get married while Mercury is retrograde. Mercury retrograde obscures facts and reality, and you may find out later that the job or relationship does not work out in your favor. Perhaps the conditions at a new workplace aren’t what you thought they’d be, or a new partner shows a side of their personality you didn’t know about and don’t like . I have ignored this advice on several occasions- once taking a new job and another time moving into a new apartment- each time knowing it was Mercury retrograde but thinking that I didn’t want to pass up what seemed like a good opportunity. Neither time worked out well for me! Both the job and living situation turned out to be awful and stressful, and it took me a long time to get out of both. So proceed at your own peril! Sometimes you don’t really have a choice, and you have to go through a bad situation to get to a good one, but just know that any agreements you enter into at this time will need to be re-done later. Venus (your ruler!) moves into your 8th house of other people’s money on the 8th, and you may hear good news about a partner’s income, or about a loan or tax refund. Just watch out for the 10th, when Venus will square Neptune in your house of friendship and money matters could go wrong. The 17th however, should bring great news, as Venus will trine Uranus in your 12th. You could get an inheritance you didn’t see coming, or perhaps money from a creative endeavor will come through. The lunar eclipse on the 18th will fall in your house of endings, and a project or relationship may come to a close at this time. The universe is asking you to clear out the old to make way for the new. Next month, there will be a full moon in your sign, and Jupiter will be in a good angle, so things will work out for the best. Mars moves into your house of true love and creativity on the 16th, and you may find matters of these nature get a turbo charge. Interested in baby-making? This is a great time to make like bunnies and get on it! Any creative projects will get a boost as your imagination seems to be on fire! Watch out for the 20th, when Mars will oppose Neptune in your house of hopes and dreams. These two polar opposite planets are in two polar opposite houses, and the lines between friendship and love may get blurry. You may find yourself suddenly crushing on someone you thought was just a friend, or perhaps he’s the one suddenly looking at you differently! If you’re looking to turn it into something more, the 26th is a great day…the Sun in your house of relationships will trine Neptune in your house of friendship, and you may wonder why you didn’t get together sooner! On the 31st, Mars in your love house will trine Pluto in your travel house. This is a great day for travel and romance, or for working on a creative project like a novel or screenplay. Why not make it a horror movie? It is Halloween after all!

Money makes the world go around, the world go around, the world go around. This month is all about the benjamins for you, though it’s hard to say if it will be going in or coming out. After a little ebb and flow each way, I think you’ll come out on top. Did something close to your heart come to a head last month? The beginning of this month might put on the finishing touches. On Oct 3, Mercury in your 9th house of travel and publishing will trine your ruler Neptune in your own sign. If you are writing a novel or screenplay, these are excellent aspects, filling you with creativity and passion. Unfortunately, just after that, the Sun in your 8th house of other people’s money will oppose Uranus in your income house, and square Pluto in your house of hopes and dreams.  The money you were counting on might not come through so you may have to put up a fight for it. The 11th house also rules friendships, so a friend who had promised to help you secure funding might be dropping the ball. Alternatively, you may be going through some kind of financial transformation. Because of these harsh angles, positive developments aren’t favored, but luckily, the lunar eclipse in your income house on the 18th is a friendly one. It falls at 26 degrees Aries, so late-born Pisces have the edge on this one. If you have any planet or point at 26 degrees Aries in your natal chart, it will offer clues as to where this eclipse will hit you. You can also look for any planets at 26 degrees of Libra, Capricorn, or Cancer- these signs are on the cardinal axis along with Aries, so they may be activated on the eclipse. Once Venus moves into Sagittarius on the 8th, you’ll have an edge in career matters. Watch out for the 10th, when Venus squares your ruler Neptune in your sign. You may hit a snag in a career matter. Luckily, a good career day will come on the 17th, when Venus will trine Uranus in your 2nd house, and you may get a bonus or raise. This is great news, especially since it comes the day before the lunar eclipse in this same income house. Mars moves into your 7th house of partnerships on the 16th, putting the emphasis on a partner (whether in business or pleasure). You may feel at the mercy of another’s whims or opinions, or you may find yourself having problems asserting yourself. As a Pisces, you’re probably used to this. On the 20th, Mars will oppose your ruler Neptune in your sign, and relationship matters may be fuzzy. Mars is the aggressor, while Neptune is soft and compassionate, so you may find yourself stuck in the mud on this day with someone close to you. Mercury spends the month in your house of travel, and will conjunct Saturn on the 8th and 30th. Mercury rules your 4th and 7th houses, so matters relating to home or partnerships may turn serious on these days. On top of that, Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st, causing all kinds of delays and breakdowns. If you’re traveling, make sure you know exactly where your passports and paperwork are at all times, and plan for any contingencies. If you’re working on a publishing or broadcasting project, you may have to go back and re-do your work. Changes may take place within your home or partnership, but all should be straightened out again by November 12th, when Mercury goes direct. You’ll have to deal with Mercury hitting Saturn one more time however, on November 26th. Saturn has been in your 9th house since October 2012, a rather easy position compared to the 8th, where it previously spent 2 1/2 years. You might be doing a deep dive into a course of study, or perhaps learning a religion or meditation practice. If either of these paths include writing or speaking, the Mercury-Saturn conjunction will bring things to a head. Saturn is the planet of limitation and hardships, but can also indicate stability and long-lasting effects, so you’ll have to wait to see how it affects you. On the 26th, the Sun in this same house of travel will trine your ruler Neptune in Pisces, so you should hear good news on this day. On the 31st, Mars in your house of partnerships will trine Pluto in your house of hopes and dreams/friendships. You may start a business with a friend, or perhaps your significant other will be instrumental in a long-held dream. Just keep an eye on your finances, as the Uranus/Pluto square will be exact on this day, and will continue into November (and through 2015). Pisces is known for having her head in the clouds, and also for not caring about material possessions. Your artistic ability and compassion are some of the most endearing traits your sign possesses, but the Universe is pushing you to take your dreams and turn them into a reality, perhaps making a little money in the process.

Aquarius, the water-bearer

September proved to be quite a moneylicious month for you, and October 3rd seems to put the finishing touches on whatever money-making scheme you were cooking up. Mercury, which for you rules other people’s money, is in your 10th house of career, and on this day it gives a friendly ping to Neptune in your income house. If you were waiting on funding for a business or other venture, it may hit the bank on this day. Enjoy it while you can, cause now I gotta ask you to strap on your seat belt- this ride’s about to get bumpy. October 5th brings a new moon in your travel and publishing house that’s harshly angled to Uranus (your ruler!) in your transportation house and Pluto in your house of completions and secrets. You might experience some serious breakdowns while traveling, or a contract might go awry. Did you experience any setbacks in this area in mid-September? The same axis is activated, so it may be a continuation of that issue. Pluto has been in your 12th house since 2008, drudging up mental issues and perhaps messing with your health. This is an odd placement for an Aquarius- your sign is light and airy- you love a good mental discussion, and you’re all about hanging out in groups. The 12th house is dark and asks us to retreat and recuperate- to dig deep into our psyches. You’re stuck with Pluto here until 2023, so embrace what he’s asking you to do. Additionally, Uranus, your ruler, has been zinging around your 3rd house since 2011. Writing and communications projects may have gone through ups and downs, or perhaps a sibling has been all over the place. A lunar eclipse in Aries on the 18th will highlight this house, and a contract may be completed at this time, or perhaps you finish a big writing project. Alternatively, you may find yourself purchasing a new car. Know your chart? Look for any planets or points at 25 degrees Aries. This is an area that will be illuminated for you. And don’t forget to read the horoscope for your rising sign! Your rising sign is just as important as your sun sign, and you should always read for both. Don’t know your ascendant? I recommend going to Cafe Astrology to get your full chart. You’ll need your exact birth time. Moving right along…the Sun in your house of travel will square Jupiter in your 6th house of work and health. A publishing project could go awry, or you might have an issue with a foreign client. Speaking of work, you’ve had quite a go of it since October 2012, when Saturn entered your career house. This month, Mercury travels this same house and conjuncts Saturn twice- on the 8th and the 30th, and goes retrograde on the 21st. Since Mercury rules your 8th house of other people’s money, as well as your 5th house of love, creativity, and children, you may experience delays or set backs in these areas. Luckily, on the 26th, the Sun in your career house will trine Neptune in your income house, and a bonus or raise may come your way. More good news- Venus will enter your 11th house of friendships on the 8th. Sparks may fly with a friend, or perhaps a pal will set you up on a fun date. On the 17th, Venus trines Uranus in your 3rd house. You might find unexpected love on a short trip with friends, or even at the super market! Make sure you’re out and about on this day! Mars enters your 8th house of other people’s money on the 16th, so keep an eye on your credit card. The good news about Mars in the 8th? Your sex drive will sky rocket. Even better, on the 31st, Mars will trine Pluto in your 12th house of secrets.  The interplay between these two ferocious planets in your most mysterious and sexy houses means you might want to stay in this Halloween. In bed that is. Grrar.

Under Capricorn

Just when you thought you’d put your career troubles behind you, they decided to pop out again to say hello- just in time for Halloween! Saturn spent 2 1/2 years in your career sector, leaving in October of last year. The pressure lifted, but it’s coming back briefly this month as some cosmic storms come rolling in. The new moon in your 10th house of career on Oct 5th will oppose Uranus in your house of home, and square Pluto in your sign. You might get the job offer of your dreams…but it’s located across the globe. Your career and home seem to be at war with each other, and it’s hard for you to know which direction to take. This isn’t an entirely new influence- Uranus and Pluto have been doing a complicated tango since June 2012, trying to get you to put down roots and figure out where you want to be. It can be exhausting, and unfortunately this influence will last until 2015. It’s especially tough on you, as you’re one of the cardinal signs (along with your Aries, Libra, and Cancer buddies) that these large outer planets are traveling through. Don’t feel too bad- all signs are feeling the heat from the Uranus/Pluto square, just in different ways. One specific day to watch out for is the 13th, when the Sun in your career house will square Jupiter in your house of partnerships, and the needs of your career may be at odds with the needs of your personal life. If it’s a housing or home-related matter you’re dealing with, things should be resolved by October 18th, with the lunar eclipse in Aries in your 4th house. This is especially true if you have any planets or points at 25 degrees Aries, Capricorn, Libra, or Cancer, or if you were born around January 18th. Eclipses can be felt up to one month before or after the eclipse date, so you may have already experienced a major development, or one may not happen until November. Going back to the beginning of the month for a minute- on Oct 3, Mercury in your house of friendships will trine Neptune in your house of short travel. You may go on a fun trip with friends, or perhaps a writing or communication project will come to fruition. I want to emphasize that this beneficial influence is only good on this date, however, as the sky will be too chaotic later in the month for travel. Mercury will conjunct Saturn twice this month in your friendship house- on the 8th and 30th- before going retrograde on the 21st. Mercury rules your 6th house of work and health, as well as your 9th house of travel and publishing. You may experience set-backs at the office or decide to change your diet or health routine. Additionally, you might be re-assessing your personal philosophies and beliefs to make sure you’re living your life in a way that reflects your true values. Be careful while traveling after the 21st, as Mercury can cause all kinds of delays and breakdowns. With Mars moving into your 9th house of travel on the 16th, it could be tough to avoid. Just keep your eyes open and plan for contingencies. Another way Mars in the 9th may manifest is if you are dealing with a foreign company, or if you are pursuing higher education. You might find you have three papers due on the same day, or perhaps a client in another country is causing problems. Heck, you may just decide to do a deep dive into some books on Buddhism or take a yoga and meditation workshop. Just be careful on the 20th, when Mars will oppose Pisces in your 3rd house of communication and transportation. Mars wants to GO GO GO while Neptune wants to RELAX MAN, and they’ll be in a stand-off in your communication and travel houses. You may want to move forward with a project or plan, but something appears to be blocking you or obscuring details. Luckily, the end of the month sees Mars trine Pluto in your own sign. Although Mercury will still be retrograde (until November 12th), you should be able to make progress on this day.

October 2013 Horoscope- Sagittarius

Sagittarius, the Archer

It appears you’re wrapping up a home-related issue. Did the full moon last month complete a move? If so, your aspects continue to be good in the first few days of October. Mercury in your house of completions trines Neptune in your house of home on the 3rd, so you might be finishing up some last minute paperwork. A new moon on the 5th is proving to be quite a headache for all signs this month. For you, the new moon occurs in your house of hopes and dreams. It’s also the house that rules friendships. Normally this is an excellent place for a new moon- it’s full of happy light energy- anything is possible! Unfortunately, this moon is a real ball buster, opposing Uranus in your fifth house of love, children, and creativity, and squaring Pluto in your house of income. You might be suffering from unnecessary drama in a relationship or fighting about money with a friend, lover, or child. Sagittarius is known for being vocal with their opinions- perhaps you’re getting called out on your tendency to dominate conversations. Another option could be that you’re finally striking it out on your own-perhaps starting your business or deciding to write a novel- instead of falling back on job after job working for “the man.” New endeavors take time, so take any difficulties in stride. None of these are particularly new influences. Pluto entered your income realm in 2008 and has seen to it that you don’t get complacent in money matters. Your financial situation has probably gone through massive ebbs and flows. Additionally, Uranus has been stirring up all kinds of trouble in your 5th house since 2011. Perhaps you got unexpectedly pregnant, or have found yourself falling easily in and out of love. Since June 2012, these two planets have been in a screaming match with each other, bringing these matters to a climax. Luckily, Venus moves into your sign on the 8th, giving you charm in spades. On the 17th, Venus will trine Uranus in your 5th house of true love, making for a sexy fun time with a special beau. If you’re single, you might meet someone out of the blue. Coupled up Sags might be surprised by a romantic gesture from a loved one. This is also a great time to upgrade your wardrobe or appearance- just make sure you do it before Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st. Mercury will be in your 12th house, so you may have to go back and address a previous health or mental issue. Because Mercury rules your 7th and 10th houses, issues with your spouse or employer may come up. Watch out for the 13th, when the Sun in your friendship house will square Jupiter (your ruler) in your house of other people’s money. You may have problems with the financing of a long-term project, or perhaps you’ll have to lend money to a friend. The lunar eclipse on Oct 18th sees a love or creative project come to a climax. You might break it off with a honey or on the flip side, get engaged. Alternatively, you might discover or announce a pregnancy! Mars enters your career sector on the 16th, giving this area a boost of energy. You may get some press or be extra busy impressing VIPs. Watch out on the 20th, when Mars will oppose Neptune in your house of home. Mars stirs the pot, while Neptune casts a fog, so things could get confusing. You might be so busy at work that you’re overlooking things on the home front. The end of the month- Halloween specifically- brings good news, as Mars in your career house will trine Pluto in your 2nd house. You might end up with bonus or raise. Happy Halloween indeed! Just watch out for the Pluto/Uranus square  going on between your 2nd and 5th houses, an influence that will go into November (and ebb and flow until 2015!). You may argue with your love about money, or perhaps find that a child is costing you a lot of money.

A Haunted House and Other Short Stories

Happy Halloween! And birthday of course. After all that rest and recuperation last month, you’re finally ready to come out of your hole. Is the world ready for you? The month starts out on a great note, when Mercury in your 2nd house of income trines Neptune in your 6th house of work. Did you get that new job last month? Your new salary may finally hit the bank. Welcome news considering Saturn’s been in your income sector since last October and will stay there until 2015. Unfortunately, this month, Mercury conjuncts Saturn twice-  on the 8th and the 30th. Money matters may turn serious and you might have to write a few big checks, especially if travel, education, or an illness is involved, as Mercury rules these areas for you. Adding to the problem, Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st, and won’t resume direct motion until November 12th. You may have to go back and review your finances, or money you were counting on might be delayed. October 5th brings a new moon in your first house of self, and with it comes some challenging aspects. Uranus in your 7th house of partnerships will be in opposition, and Pluto in your 4th house of home will square both. This is not a new aspect for you, as these planets have been doing a seriously messed up dance for a while now. You’ve been working hard on reinventing yourself for a while, but you keep running into brick walls. Pluto has been turning your home life inside out since 2008, and Uranus has been disrupting your partnership sector since 2011. Now these planets are in a difficult swordfight, and it feels like everything is coming to a head. Ever hear the expression that nothing good comes easy? Keep this in mind, as unfortunately you will be hit hardest by this planetary clusterfudge, especially if you were born between Oct 1 and October 10th, or if you’re a Libra rising at 11.5 degrees. Your fellow cardinal signs Aries, Capricorn, and Cancer will be right there in the muck with ya. To top it off, the Sun in your sign will square Jupiter in your 10th house of career on the 13th. Harsh aspects to the 1st house, 4th house, 7th house and 10th house are considered the toughest, since they are the angles of your chart, and you’re being ambushed at all angles, so I feel for you. Just remember that challenges are what enable us to grow. Good aspects are nice, but can leave things stagnant. The planets are encouraging you to stake out the right path for you, and they’ll do so til you get it right. Luckily, on the 17th, your ruler Venus in your 3rd house of communication will trine Uranus in your 7th house of partnerships, and partnerships matters (personal or business related) will have an extra boost of good luck. This is good news, since on the 18th, the lunar eclipse will bring a partnership matter to a climax. This is especially true if you birthday falls around this date, or if you are a Libra at 25 degrees rising. On the 8th, Mars will enter your 12th house of closure. This can be a difficult position since the 12th house wants us to rest and release, while Mars wants us to forge ahead with new ventures. Guard your secrets carefully and watch your health. On the 20th, Mars will oppose Neptune in your house of work and health, and an underhanded colleague’s secrets might come to light. Luckily, the month ends on a good note. On the 26th, the sun in your house of income will trine Neptune in your house of work projects. You may get a side project that can bring in extra cash, or perhaps you’ll dedicate some bones to a new fitness routine. On the 31st, Mars in your 12th will trine Pluto in your 4th house. Instead of partying on Halloween this year, why don’t you turn your house into a haunted mansion? Mars will give you the creative and dark energy to make a wonderfully scary abode- what a great way to make these energies work for you! On the same day, Uranus in your partnership house will square Pluto in your house of home, so keeping things close to home will be a good idea.

September 2013 Horoscopes- Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo

Taurus

The new moon on the 5th occurs in your fifth house of true love and creativity. What fun for you! Looking to get pregnant? This is a wonderful aspect. With Jupiter in your 3rd house holding hands lovingly with this new moon, perhaps it will be a sibling who announces a pregnancy. Alternatively, you may have a brilliant idea for a creative project. Trust your hunch and get to work on it. At the very least, this aspect suggests you take a wonderful trip (not too far!) with your love. Why don’t you find a cute little B&B in a nearby town and get to work on that baby making! Mars in your 4th house of home indicates that there’s a lot going on at Chez Bull. Whether it’s renovations, family in town, or just some temper tantrums with your roommates, expect it to last all month. On 9/14, your ruler, Venus, in your partnership sector, makes beautiful music with Neptune in your house of hopes and dreams. Is an engagement on the way? With all the activity involving your home, love life, and family, it’s a serious possibility.  Not to mention the full moon in this same hopes and dreams house on the 19th which will bring something very important to you to a climax. On the same day as the full moon, your ruler Venus will conjunct Saturn in your partnership sector and sextile Pluto in your 9th house. Travel will be divine on this day, and if you’re traveling with a partner, you may just end up with a ring on it! Just be careful mid-month, as mercury in your house of work and health will oppose Uranus in your house of closure, and both will be squared by pluto in your travel house. Work could be stressful, especially if there’s travel or higher education involved. You may feel like you’re underperforming, or a co-worker could be plotting against you. Mars in your house of home is egging it all on and not helping things one bit- you’re feeling the pressure on all sides. The end of the month is a mixed bag. On 9/26, Venus in your partnership sector (I’m focusing on Venus b/c it’s your ruler) will trine jupiter in your 3rd house, and this could be the day you two make things official. Yet on the 28th, mars in your home sector will square venus in your partnership sector, indicating that there may be some arguments. Instead of fighting with your love, why not take that passionate energy and use it between the sheets? My advice? Make love, not war.

Gemini

The end of August was good for you- your ruler Mercury in your house of home smiled at Jupiter in in your house of income. Perhaps a home loan came through or you got an offer for your house. The home luck continues as a bright new moon on the 5th- arm in arm with Jupiter- illuminates this same sector, making your prospects even brighter.  Watch your tongue on the 9th, when Mars in your communication sector squares Saturn in your work sector. You might have it out with a co-worker or client, or a deal could go awry. Also, watch your damn driving, who are you, Danica Patrick? Mars can make you a bit aggressive on the road rage front, so reign it in. We want to keep you healthy to enjoy the rewards that await you at the end of the month. But first, you gotta get through Sept 16. This day will be tiring for just about every sign. Your ruler, Mercury, will oppose Uranus, pitting your houses of love and friendship against each other and squaring Pluto in your house of other people’s money. Make sure everyone’s paying their way in your world- you’re not an ATM. Luckily, the full moon on the 19th in Pisces brings a career matter to a head. Aiming for a promotion? You just might get it, especially after the kiss Venus in your work sector gave to Neptune in your career sector a few days earlier. This is a big deal- new title, new money. Perhaps some fancy press. This is what you’ve been waiting for.  Just be careful on the 20th when Mercury in your love house squares Jupiter in your money house. Mo money mo problems, amirite? And don’t rub that promotion in too hard with your co-workers. A fight at the end of the month between mars in your communication sector and venus in your work sectors could have colleagues seeing green. Haters gonna hate, enjoy it while you got it!

Cancer

Lucky little crabby, current star of the zodiac. Early in the month, Jupiter, currently in your sign, links up with the new moon (your ruler!) in your 3rd house of communication. Methinks someone might have their eye on a new car. This would be a great time to sign any contract on the dotted line. Or perhaps a nice little out-of-town jaunt is in order. At the very least, this new moon will serve to make sure your world is going smoothly on a day to day basis. Hey, these days, that would be enough for me. Mars spends the month in your 2nd house, driving up expenses, and on the 12th, venus moves into your house of true love, increasing your chances of meeting someone special. He may not end being Mr. Right, but there’s nothing wrong with a little Mr. Right Now (hubba, hubba). Why not say what the hell and agree to that Jamaican vacation with your new beau? On the 14th, love and travel will be delightful when Venus in your love house beams over to Neptune in your travel house. Good thing too- you’ll need a  distraction from the tug of war going on between your home and career houses mid-month. If you have an S.O, chances are they’re none too happy with the hours you’re spending on the job. Not getting paid what you think you should? Perhaps it’s time to look for another gig. With Jupiter in your sign, this is a great year to branch out. Pluto goes direct on the 21st, which should make partnership matters in love or business a little more clear, and the full moon on the 19th brings a travel or education matter to conclusion. If you applied to the school of your dreams, this might be the time you get your yes or no. With some lovely aspects between your love and partnership houses at the end of the month, your Mr. Right Now just might turn out to be…GASP…Mr. Right.

Leo

This months sees to it that you have energy to spare! With Mars in your sign for the first time in years, you have more energy than you know what to do with. How about channeling some of that energy into making some more bones (moolah, scrilla, you get the picture). With the sun (your ruler) in your second house of income for most of the month, you’re in prime position for some cold hard cash. On Sept 5, the new moon in this house makes beautiful music with Jupiter in your 12th house, suggesting money comes from a creative endeavor. Alternatively, lions working in the health sector might get a raise. Just watch out for the 9th when mars in your sign will square saturn in your house of home. Yikes. Mars has a tendency to make you a teensy bit more aggressive than you intend, so be extra sensitive around family members. Another explosive day to watch out for is the 16th, when Mercury in your 3rd house opposes Uranus in your 9th, making travel or education plans go unexpectedly awry.  Pluto in your 6th squares the pair, bringing your workplace or health into the situation. A deal could fall apart at work, or illness could interfere with a vacation. With Mars tripling the power of this t-square with a strong beam, personally I’d hide in bed all day. On the 19th, Venus in your house of home conjuncts Saturn, relieving any tension left over from earlier in the month. Any home decisions at this time will be beneficial. Money is back in the picture on the 19th, when a full moon in your 8th house brings an influx of cash. A bonus or inheritance might be coming your way. On the 26th, Venus in your house of home trines Jupiter in your house of closure. If you need to rest or work on a creative project by yourself, this is a lovely aspect.

September 2013 Horoscopes- Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries

Capricorn

Someone’s feeling the itch. No, not that itch. The travel itch! The new moon on the 5th in your house of travel links up with Jupiter in your house of partners. Why not get the hell out of dodge and go to South America with your love? Your aspects couldn’t be better. Alternatively, if you’re working on a novel or screenplay, this might be the time you get a publisher or producer attached. Mars in your 8th house of other’s people’s money will be driving up expenses all month, so just keep an eye on that credit card. On the 9th, Mars will square Saturn (your ruler) in your house of hopes and dreams. You may find you don’t have the funds to complete a beloved dream, or maybe you realize you’re just not that into something you thought you couldn’t live without. The full moon in your house of communication on the 19th will give you the words to admit it. Alternatively, this may be the day you sign an important contract or buy a new car. Also keep your phone on you, as you may hear big news from a sibling. Mid-month, Pluto in your sign t-squares Mercury in your house of career and Uranus in your house of home. You’ve had a hard time balancing family and career, and the cosmos are ready for you to do something about it already.  When Pluto in your sign goes direct on the 21st, you’ll find it much more easy to find a solution. The end of the month brings fun with friends and your partner, as Venus and Jupiter will embrace lovingly in these houses.

Aquarius

Money, money, money, money….MONEY. This month is all about the benjamins, as a new moon on the 5th links your house of other people’s money with your house of work. Been fundraising for a new business? This month might put that cash in the bank. Alternatively, you may decide to transform your health routine- why not jump on the gluten-free train or join a new gym? With Jupiter in your health house until next summer, you have the best aspects for losing weight and improving your health. Additionally, on the 14th, Venus in your house of career will smooch Neptune in your income house, and a full moon in that same income house will bring even MORE funds on the 19th. Holy moly! I was serious about this money crap. Mars in your partnership house all month will put the emphasis on another- whether it’s a partner in love or business. Watch out for the 9th, when Mars will square Saturn (one of your rulers) in the your career house. All this focus on work and money might have you neglecting your S.O. The 16th gets a little tricky as well, when Mercury in your travel house opposes your OTHER ruler (Uranus) in your 3rd house. Travel and communication won’t go as planned, especially with Capricorn in the your 12th house bringing some dark energy into the mix with a t-square. A contract might go awry- perhaps this new angel investor buried some unsavory terms deep in the paperwork. If you’re a writer, you might experience the ol’ writer’s block. Luckily, on the 26th, Venus in your career house will ping Jupiter in your work house, putting you back on top.

Pisces

Partnered up? You will be after this month! A new moon in your partnership sector on the 5th is beautifully angled to good luck Jupiter in your house of true love. These are truly gorgeous aspects for matters of the heart. Alternatively, you could partner up on a creative endeavor. If it’s for work, you’ll be a busy little bee, as Mars will rev up your work and health sector all month, bringing in assignments left and right. Skip travel on the 9th, as Mars will square saturn in your travel house on this day, suggesting work will trump pleasure. Instead, travel on the 14th when Venus in your travel house will trine your ruler, Neptune, in your own sign. This is a lovely aspect which suggests romance galore. Things are tense for all signs mid-month, when Mercury and Uranus oppose each other in your money houses and t-square Pluto in your friendship house. Money you were counting on might not come through, or perhaps money will cause tension with a friend. Mars in your work and health house will be fanning the flames, so things could get heated. Luckily, you aren’t directly in the crosshairs for this one, so things should turn out okay. On the 19th, Venus will conjunct Saturn in your house of travel/publishing, and they both will sextile Pluto in your house of hopes and dreams. Venus rules your communication house as well as your house of other people’s money- you might finally get funding for a novel or screenplay. Also on that day, a full moon occurs in your sign, meaning something very important to you will come to a conclusion. This is especially true if you’re a pisces between the degrees of 21 and 29, or if any of your planets or cusps fall on those degrees. Just be careful on the 20th, when Mercury in your 8th house of other people’s money squares Jupiter (your OTHER ruler) in the 5th house. You may fight with a lover over money or quit a creative project abruptly. Luckily, on the 26th, Venus in the 9th house will trine Jupiter in the 5th. This is an excellent time to travel with a lover or perhaps apply to college or grad school. 2 days later, Venus will square Mars in the 6th, suggesting work or illness will disrupt your trip. Phooey. When Pluto goes direct in your friendship house on the 21st, you may finally iron out any problems you had with a buddy.

Aries

On September 5, a new moon in your 6th house links arms with Jupiter in your 4th house. You might get a new work assignment that fits in with your home life beautifully, or perhaps you’ll even get the opportunity to work from home! Alternatively, you might start a new health regiment- maybe you’ll finally buy that treadmill for your living room you’ve had your eye on. Your ruler, Mars, spends the month in your house of true love…lucky you! Unfortunately on the 9th, mars will square Saturn in your house of other people’s money which could cause you to fight with your love about money. Alternatively, funding for a creative project could fall through. If it’s for the latter, don’t fret, because on the 19th venus in your money house will ping Neptune in your 12th house of creativity, saving the day. Brace yourself, because mid-month, things get dicey. Mercury in your partnership house will oppose Uranus in your own sign, and both will be squared by Pluto in your house of career. Been burning the midnight oil on the job at the expense of your partner? It might blow up this month. Alternatively, the two of you might be on opposing sides of the whole “marriage” thing. Mars in the 5th house will be pouring gasoline on this fire, ram, and it might not be pretty. If you’re single, this could be in regards to a work partner. You may not be seeing eye to eye on the creative aspects of a joint endeavor, and you could decide to part ways. I’m not gonna lie, Aries, you’re directly in the crosshairs of this one. What’s new, right? You’re an old pro at this t-square thing by now, seeing as it’s happened a few times since 2012. Good thing you just might be the most resiliant sign of the zodiac. If it all gets to be too much, just breathe. The full moon in your house of closure on the 19th may be just what you need to let it all go and prepare for new beginnings. I’ll tell you what I told Libra- go take a bath and pour yourself a glass (or three) of wine. The world can wait. The end of the month sees a dramatic tango between your houses of home, love, and transformation.  I predict a serious breakthrough for you.

September 2013 Horoscopes- Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius

Virgo 

Happy birthday virgin, it’s your time to shine! A new moon in your sign on the 5th is beautifully angled to Jupiter in your house of hopes and dreams, suggesting that any  ventures you begin will benefit you for a long time to come. This is extra true if your birthday (or a planet in your natal chart) falls between 8 and 18 degrees of Virgo. Your ruler, Mercury, moves into your second house of income on the 10th, giving you an edge in all matters relating to finances. Be careful on the 9th, when Mars in your 12th house of secrets squares saturn in your 3rd house of communication. You might say something you don’t mean (or do mean, but regret saying). Another day to watch out for is the 16th, when your ruler Mercury in the 2nd squares Uranus in your 8th house and Pluto in your 5th. Love and money won’t mix, and Mars in the mix in your 12th suggests a secret (yours or your lover’s) will be exposed. A full moon in Pisces on the 19th brings your partner front and center. You might make it official or break it off, but with Mars in the 12th just make sure you’re not in a toxic relationship! With Pluto going direct on the 21st, love matters will definitely become more clear. One more day to look out for is the 20th, when your ruler Mercury squares Jupiter in the 11th house. If you lent money to a friend, don’t expect it back. As my dad always says, never lend out anything you can’t live without, because you probably won’t get it back (he has a Scorpio moon, can you tell?) Luckily, the month ends on a high note, with Venus in your 3rd house (Scorpio) beaming lovingly at Jupiter in your 11th. You might get a new car, hear wonderful news about a sibling, sign a contract, or perhaps just take a romantic trip out of town. Sounds like a good time to me!

Libra

Rest. It’s a good thing. A new moon on the 5th in your 12th house means that this month may see you laying a little low. Read a book, take a bath, and drink some wine. You have cosmic permission to recuperate and retreat. Because this new moon is so beautifully angled to Jupiter in your 10th house, Libras in a creative profession have a great edge. This would be a great time to finally write that novel you’ve been thinking about. You may not feel like anyone thinks you’re anything special right now, but trust me- important people are watching you and your time will come soon- perhaps even next month! Your ruler, Venus, moves into your 2nd house on the 12th, suggesting now’s a good time to focus on your earning power. Time for a new job? A full moon in your 6th house of work on the 19th might make this a real possibility. Just keep an eye on your health, as you may feel run down around this time. Mars moves through your house of friendship all month and squares Saturn in your income house on the 9th. Money matters might be discouraging at this time (what’s new), but by the end of the month (9/26) your ruler in the 2nd will smile at Jupiter in the 10th, suggesting that you’ll finally get the money and title you deserve. I’m not gonna lie- mid month will be tough for home and partnership matters. On 9/16, Mercury in your sign will oppose Uranus in your partnership house and form a t-square with pluto in your house of home. Yikes. Mars will be fanning the flames from the sidelines like a drunk asshole at a football game. Remember that whole book/wine/bath advice? Yeah, this is a good day for that.

Scorpio

A new moon on the 5th ushers in a fun-filled month of social gatherings. Been planning a trip? This moon is wonderfully angled to Jupiter in your 9th, making it a prime time to travel with friends. Applying to the college or grad school or your dreams? Do it now and make the most out of these gorgeous aspects! On the 9th, Mars in your house of career squares Saturn in your sign. Things may not go according to plan on the work front. Adding to the work stress is the t-sqaure mid month (9/16), when your ruler Pluto in the 3rd will t-square Mercury in your 12th and Uranus in your 6th house. Yikes! Communication with co-workers will be stressful and you might feel like you’re underperforming. Luckily, your ruler, Pluto, goes direct on the 21st, and any slowdowns you’ve been experiencing should speed on up. Also, on the 14th, Venus in your sign will trine Neptune in your house of true love, making love matters melt any work worries away. Even better- the full moon on the 19th in your house of true love crystallizes a matter close to your heart! Is an engagement on the way? Venus will conjunct Saturn in your sign, and sextile your ruler, suggesting this is a  real possibility. Enjoy!

Sagittarius

Look at you, big shot! A new moon on the 5th might see you get that long-deserved promotion or perhaps at least some fancy press. Jupiter, your ruler, in your house of other people’s money, tells me you’ll get a nice big fat bonus to go with it. Things might get busy, as mars in your 9th will bring lots of travel. Be careful on 9/9, when mars squares Saturn in your 12th house of secrets. Something could go wrong on a trip. Additionally, mid-month could get a little tricky on the friendship and love front, as mercury and uranus oppose each other and square pluto in your house of income. Luckily, you aren’t in the direct line of fire so you may escape unscathed. Be sure to lend a shoulder to cry on for your not so lucky zodiac pals- Aries, Caps, and Libras, and to a lesser extent Cancers and Leos will feel the heat from this one. On the 20th, friendship and money don’t mix, as mercury in your house of friendship will square your ruler in the 8th. Alternatively, a friendship might go through a radical transformation. A full moon on the 19th will bring a home related matter to conclusion. Are you buying a bigger, better house with your newfound wealth? With Venus in your 12th house trining Neptune in your house of home earlier this month, you may be bidding a bittersweet goodbye to a beloved house. It can be hard to let go of the past, but it’s all for the best. Pluto goes direct on the 21st in your house of income, making money money matters more straightforward.
