Aquarius
January 20–February 18
Let’s look back on a larger story that you’ve been working your way through over the last two years. I know we’ve been talking about this in previous horoscopes, but September is a major checkpoint for you, the month that Saturn, your ruling planet, turns direct in Capricorn. This marks the last time Saturn will turn direct in Capricorn for another nearly thirty years. (Yes, thirty years.) It’s important to remember that having Saturn as your ruling planet means that you live life at a different pace than most people. Saturn is a slow moving planet, taking 30 years to complete one journey through all twelve signs of the zodiac. That’s not to say that your life moves more slowly, but it occupies distinct chapters that last nearly three years, the amount of time Saturn spends in each sign. So, think back to the start of 2018. Were there any noticeable shifts then? A new story that came in while another concluded? For you, Aquarius, that was when Saturn entered your last sign, which is as if to say you reached the end of a long journey that, over the last two years, you’ve had to let go of the past, shed old spiritual baggage, answer deep existential questions, and make peace with Source/God/Creator. This part of your astrology chart is the most mysterious, mystical, and removed from the world. So, as Saturn turns direct this month, you may have some questions to answer … What’s your spiritual life like? Stronger or more defined than it was in 2018? What have you let go of? What do you still need to let go of? What I’ve been telling my Aquarius and Aquarius rising clients is that you need to be very discerning about what you’re still holding onto because, once Saturn arrives in Aquarius on December 17, it’s with you for the long haul. Something to contemplate. That said, it’s Virgo Season and, speaking of contemplation, the Sun is in a part of your chart that connects you to the deepest parts of your psyche. It’s health and healing, a la Virgo Season, but emotional and psychological healing. It’s also a season that speaks to finance and other monetary concerns. A full moon on September 2 puts the spotlight on income and resources. Time to make a decision about your material life, which may be sparking questions of whether you’re safe or have what you need in order to feel rooted and grounded. You may also be questioning the value and worth of something or if something is aligned with your spiritual values. But it’s on September 9 that Mars turns retrograde in Aries, which is one of the headlining events for this month. For you, Aries is your sign of communication and learning, ideas and information. Have you had a lot to say over the past few months? After all, Mars has been in Aries since the end of June and won’t leave until January 2021. Perhaps the ideas have been pouring out of you. Maybe you’ve been feeling more impatient or brusque in your speech. When Mars turns retrograde, it commences a two month period of reviewing how you communicate and listen. Maybe there needs to be a change? Education matters may also be at the forefront, with a sense that things are not exactly resolved until November. Mars is also your career planet, so you may be using the coming weeks to reevaluate your direction and make new choices — choices that may have a sense of lasting permanence. On September 6 Venus arrives in Leo, your relationship sign, which opens a four week period of new connections, new relationships, new romances, and even reconnecting with someone from the past. Jupiter is another planet changing direction this month. It turns direct in Capricorn on September 12, something that may inspire a search for existential answers or a revelation of some sort. Pay attention to your dreams. They may be trying to tell you something. On September 17 a Virgo New Moon gives you a fresh start to recommit to your emotional health. Use the coming lunar month to dig deep into yourself, from your blindspots to any shadow material that’s self sabotaging you. By September 22 the Sun arrives in Libra, your sign of higher education, travel, truth, and meaning. You may be in a philosophical mood in the last week of the month, looking at different perspectives or traditions to help you make sense of things. Normally this would be your time to pack your bags and set off on a journey, but that may be hard to do this year. But it’s Saturn’s direct turn on September 29 that marks the last stretch of a nearly three year story. You may be feeling the heaviness, a sense of time, or a sense that things are about to shift greatly. Again, be discerning about what you want to bring with you as you get closer to December. And with Saturn turning direct in aspect to Mars, you may have some serious decisions to make. Want a deeper look at how September will affect you? Book your one-on-one consultation now.
