The celestial week of October 20th, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in Libra, the airy manager in charge of relating, illuminating an opportunity of the realization that we are not alone, and that there is a spiritual assistance available for guidance and direction.
Venus, the planetary ruler of Libra, is also positioned in Libra, with an inherent value that truth is in the image of perception and projection, as intuitive visions speaking forth as wisdom. The Sun is positioned at the latest degree of the planets, technically considered void of course, suggesting a time of withdrawing within to seek guidance with no attachment to how the outcomes are accomplished, and yet more of a time of letting go and letting God.
Meanwhile, the Moon is also traveling through Libra, reflecting an emotional, peaceful contemplation of past memories, when events presupposed adverse concerns, yet worked out for the best, without purposeful interference. As the Moon is in a balsamic lunar phase with the Sun, it echoes the value of the Sun’s purpose to let go of the shadows of emotional worries, and step into the light of the Sun, to absorb the security of its steady course of timeless action, to shine forth even on the darkest of nights.
Although it may become contentious before the day ends, as the Moon is in Libra, you may feel challenged by the ability to balance emotional relationships alongside huge projects of emotional investments. The balancing act may become confrontational minutes after midnight on October 21, as the Moon in Libra opposes Chiron in Aries, with irritating demands for attention if Chiron feels rejected or abandoned. The key is to calmly reject the premise of the projection, with a soothing emotional tone that allows others to realize they are being triggered by internal wounds of abandonment, and to accept the responsibility to heal them, to experience a greater quality of life and relating.
That exchange of relating will become significant for the new moon cycle in Libra, which occurs before the workday begins. The signature of this new moon cycle is indicative of new illuminations about relating, self-values, and financial resources, in the context of relationships with oneself and others. The key to balancing the process of relating is through interpreting and conveying beliefs and ideas in the calm after the storm, to establish a movement into a new state of emotional equilibrium and relating.
The caveat of new moon cycles is that while it is the time to plant new seeds of intention, which will impact the current time until the next new moon cycle in Libra in 2026. It is also a time of symbolically planting seeds in the dark, as there is no light from the Moon. This is what happens when a physical seed is planted in the ground and covered with dirt. Thus, it is now helpful to plant those seeds in the field of cosmic consciousness, with purposeful awareness and a form of documentation, so that the harvest will be recognized when it comes forth.
For example, several years ago, I was frustrated with the chore of cutting grass with a barely working lawnmower, in the hot and humid climate of Tennessee, so I would casually think, “I’m done with this, I’m going to get a goat, and it can take care of the lawn maintenance. Forgetting that it was during a new moon cycle, the realization of the casually forgotten thought seed planted showed up this past week. My son and I were outside in the afternoon, and I heard my son taking a deep breath, so I looked up from what I was doing, and the goat across the street had come into the yard and was rambling toward the front porch, where it took up a temporary residence. While I was somewhat amused as the goat looked into the front storm door, I also invited it to leave and find its highest good elsewhere. As it went off down the street, I heard a voice within that said, “That’s what happens when you think a thought without qualifying the intention of the thought in a new moon cycle.” Lesson reviewed once again.
Later in the morning, on Oct 21, the Moon slips away from the Sun into mysterious Scorpio to investigate what seems to be hidden in friendships associated with hopes, wishes, and dreams. The moon in Scorpio has an internal radar to emotionally detect incongruencies with a laser-like focus that sends it off to gather evidence to validate those feelings without revealing it has found until it serves a purpose.
The Moon’s first planetary encounter occurs with Neptune retrograde in Aries with an attitude adjustment about ignoring boundaries relative to actions, ( followed by a stern rebuke to Uranus in Gemini retrograde for talking out of school about the Moon’s business. Shortly after, it is Pluto’s turn in Aquarius to be challenged by the Moon in Scorpio over rebellious actions fueled by erroneous information.
In the early hours of October 22nd, Neptune retrogrades back into Pisces to finish up the dreams seeded in February 2012, of a momentous spiritual, artistic nature, aided by Saturn retrograde in Pisces to accomplish them. While Jupiter in Cancer contributes emotions to expand them beyond their wildest imagination, and Mars and Mercury in Scorpio activate energetic actions for a soulful transformation until January 26, 2026, when Neptune blazes back into Aries, and the recent solar eclipse at 29 degrees of Virgo also illuminates the work needed to wrap it up until February 17, 2026.
Before the day ends, the Sun slithers into powerful Scorpio, shining a light on family dynamics that subconsciously shaped a transformational purpose in life for better or worse. Scorpio energy has an attitude of take-no-prisoners that can be the enemy within or a complete surrender to the calling of a higher power. Either way, there’s no gray area. Yes or no, stay or go, survival is the goal. Think about the sting of a scorpion crawling on the ground, the phoenix rising from the ashes, and an eagle soaring above it all, and you get the nature of Scorpio.
The first order of business is with Uranus in Gemini retrograde and Pluto in Aquarius, as it draws a hard line in the sand over the boundaries that the Moon in Scorpio issued attitude adjustments about.
On the afternoon of October 23rd, Jupiter, the king of the planets, is currently presiding on the throne of Cancer to square off with Chiron retrograde in Aries to get off the train of anger over self-abandonment and get on with utilizing the lessons learned to take a leap of emotional faith and begin anew.
Before the day ends, the Moon jumps into Sagittarius with unbounded emotional enthusiasm as creative projects are gaining momentum behind the scenes. However, the Moon’s first planetary interaction is in opposition with Uranus retrograde in Gemini, so there may be some negotiations on the table regarding the best direction to take moving forward. The key is to stand firm on priorities and negotiate on what can be lived with for the opportunity.
On the morning of October 24, the Sun in Scorpio shows its mettle in determined Scorpio as it challenges Pluto, the transformational ruler of Scorpio, currently channeling its power through free-thinking, futuristic Aquarius. While Pluto in Aquarius appreciates the irony of the Sun’s challenge, it has no intention of giving it any notable recognition.

The celestial week of October 13, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in harmonious Libra, illuminating an opportunity to connect with like-minded others and share values about relating and self-worth. Whereas Venus, the planetary agent of Libra, has arrived at the last degree of Virgo with a reminder to stay true to oneself along the path of life.
Venus is also activating the recent solar eclipse in Virgo; therefore, significant circumstances and events begin to fall into place relative to the seeds of intention planted at that time. As the solar eclipse is initially a six-month window of energy to work with, things will unfold quickly until February 2026, as Mercury, the fleet-footed messenger in charge of Virgo, makes important connections. The key is to keep in mind that the current solar eclipse window is a time of cultivating win/win relationships from the past and present, which will anchor the next nineteen years based on the value of communication.
Meanwhile, the Moon is throwing rocks into the emotional pond of Cancer with repetitive cycles of caretaking to support and nourish others who depend on being supported by others. However, the ripples of the pond suggest an ongoing restlessness to venture out into the world and broaden horizons by sharing beliefs and philosophies with others.
Thus, it may be a time of feeling smothered by the needs of others, instead of the emotional freedom the Moon craves to spread its wings during the disseminating lunar phase it shares with the Sun in Libra.
Shortly after lunch, the Moon in Cancer may rein in any feelings of restriction as it becomes a third-quarter lunar phase in the relationship with the Sun in Libra. Now, it is time to accept responsibility for nurturing emotional relationships, including the one with oneself.
It will become evident how important self-care is later in the afternoon when Venus dances into relationship-oriented Libra for the next few weeks. Venus in Libra is charming, politically correct, and determined to get agendas met, as an iron fist in a velvet glove. The politically correct key to relating now is demonstrating the golden rule of fairness, equality, and the art of giving and receiving with polite kindness and firm boundaries. As a wise man once stated, the art of diplomacy lies in communicating that someone is welcome to leave, and they look forward to the trip!
As the work day ends, Pluto moves forward in Aquarius with the power to transform hopes, wishes, and dreams into reality as it engages favorably with Venus in Libra, and Uranus retrograde in Gemini. It is as if the stars have aligned and opened doors of opportunities for expansive growth and visibility! The key is to seize intuitive insights as guideposts and trust the process with a foundation of faith and no attachment to how outcomes are achieved!
Before the day ends, Venus in Libra opposes Neptune retrograde in Aries, providing a way to get the kite of creative dreams off the ground, with powerful actions integrated with ideals. The caveat is that the opposition either presupposes a confrontation with others regarding values and ideals or an illuminating process to balance the scales of personal and collective values within oneself, instead of projecting them onto others.
Therefore, today is setting up the remainder of the week to follow through on the power of shifting energy. Since Columbus Day is celebrated today, it could also be an opportunity for self-discovery that may lead to new horizons, which can then be explored!
On October 14, the Moon takes center stage in Leo to announce its presence before the Sun rises in Libra! Thus, emotional dramas may be the backdrop of relating if their majesty is not given due recognition in all of its glory! However, all is forgiven and forgotten, as the warmth of the Moon in Leo is also heart-centered and connects to others with generosity and grace when gratitude is expressed with a caring demonstration of love.
The Moon in Leo is grateful for the current support and inspiration of Neptune retrograde in Aries, and Venus in Libra behind the scenes as it opposes Pluto in Aquarius in the boardroom. Pluto cooly ignores the razzle-dazzle efforts that the Moon displays for attention, as Pluto is prepared to take control of events and circumstances that have been on the back burner for the past six months. Pluto also has the support of Venus in Libra, and Uranus retrograde in Gemini, so cooperation and negotiation can provide solutions to work around differences.
On the afternoon of October 16, the Moon settles down into hard-working Virgo with an eagle eye on the financial budget, and whether the investment of resources is being utilized to sustain career goals. Mercury is the CEO of Virgo and is currently scrutinizing the bottom line, and will quickly pull the plug on expenditures that don’t demonstrate measurable results. After an initial assessment, the Moon in Virgo gets down to business, communicating attitude adjustments to Neptune retrograde in Aries to stop talking about taking actions, and get it done! Pluto in Aquarius is also on the receiving end of an attitude adjustment from the Moon about using the power of technology for present advancement, not just future projects.
In the early hours of October 17, the Sun in Libra squares off with Jupiter in Cancer to take an emotional risk and share feelings about home and family concerns, instead of withdrawing from relationships with emotional distance. The characterization of Libra and Cancer is action-oriented, so it is an opportunity to communicate feelings in a secure setting with someone who truly cares, even though it may feel uncomfortable at first.
Before the Sun goes down, a potential confrontation arises between the Sun in Libra and Chiron, the wounded healer, retrograde in Aries, as the Sun triggers the wounds of abandonment and rejection that Chiron attempts to hide with passive-aggressive behaviors. The key is to calmly state perceptions without ambushing one with covert agendas or interventions, or invite one to handle it on their own without projecting opinions or judgments.

Cosmic Insights – October 6, 2025
By Veronica G. Hartman
The celestial week of October 6, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in clever, strategic Libra, illuminating an opportunity to take a break from relationship agendas, financial concerns, and savvy mediations to engage in artistic endeavors to achieve a life balance. The essence of Libra is similar to a setting sun, suggesting that the workday is over, and it is time to rest, rejuvenate, and restore energy used to accomplish the daily tasks of living.
However, Venus, the CEO of Libra, is residing in hard-working Virgo, who doesn’t stop until the work is finished. The caveat is that the work is never finished. Thus, the current message of Venus in Virgo is to recognize the value of equality through the give and take of unity.
Whereas Mercury, the messenger of Virgo, is finishing up a visit in Libra, embracing the value of wisdom transcending knowledge, and looking to the signs for answers.
Meanwhile, the Moon is racing through impulsive Aries to kick-start daily routines into gear with creative imagination and daring actions! Mars is the manager of Aries and is moving stealthily in covert Scorpio. As Mars rules both Aries and Scorpio, the assertive warrior, they must come to a consensus of actions to work together, instead of challenging one another about who is in charge!
Aries is quick to initiate action, while Scorpio takes thought-out, calculated actions and will finish what Aries starts! Thus, a two-step strategy will usually work during the next couple of days, if the Moon in Aries takes the lead with actions based on feelings, while Mars in Scorpio enforces the boundaries with powerful actions.
Just before October 6, Mercury, the planetary messenger, slips out of charming, diplomatic Libra into secretive, powerful Scorpio to investigate every connection during the next three weeks under a laser-focused microscope for authenticity, transparency, and even brutal honesty. With that awareness, shooting straight from the hip to the lip will earn the respect and trust of others, even if they don’t agree or like what is being communicated. The caveat is that betrayal of confidences is the cardinal sin for Scorpios, so once trust is lost, it is gone, with no going back.
On the midmorning of October 7, Mercury in Scorpio is tempted to test its power of communication in a challenging standoff with powerful Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, to see who will flinch first in this potential conflict about control. The irony is that the daily ruler of Scorpio is Mars, while Pluto is the transformation ruler of powerful Scorpio. However, Pluto is currently retrograde, so it may appear to take a step back to test whether Mercury in Scorpio really has the power it portrays. Thus, a test of wills occurs relative to power and control.
Minutes after midnight on October 8, the Moon quietly moves into gentle and emotionally calm Taurus, offering solace to the emotional soul with quality food, physical comfort, and the enjoyment of nature in simple and loving kindness. There will also likely be challenges relative to home, family, and career. Yet, if tempered with patience, caring, and consideration for all concerned, conflicts can become opportunities.
On October 10, once again, the Moon changes signs under the cover of darkness shortly after midnight, as it breezes into chatty and curious Gemini! Now that the emotional batteries have been recharged, the energy amps up in an electric frenzy to kick-start the weekend, as the Moon interacts favorably with Uranus retrograde in Gemini, Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, and Neptune retrograde in Aries, in a no-holds-barred opportunity to experience the fruition of hopes, wishes, and dreams come to pass! At least, until the sun goes down!

The celestial week of September 29, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in relationship-conscious Libra, illuminating an opportunity and a need to look after the responsibilities of caring for what has been chosen.
Venus, the queen of Libra, is positioned in mentally aware Virgo with the power to turn situations around through charismatic talent as a communicator. The caveat is to avoid gaining an unfair advantage by appearing to offer fair solutions with covert agendas.
Meanwhile, the Moon has just moved into authoritative Capricorn to confer with Saturn, the CEO of Capricorn, regarding the progress of visionary business projects. Yet, Saturn is still retrograde in Pisces, dealing with ongoing shifts in management issues that have been delaying deadlines, which is not the update the Moon was expecting.
The Moon in Capricorn then challenges the lack of motivation of Neptune retrograde in Aries about taking actions to enforce boundaries in the work environment. While Neptune in Aries may appear to be slow to take action, it is quick to shift the responsibility to a lack of communication from Uranus retrograde in Gemini.
However, the Moon in Capricorn is not impressed with excuses for potential failing results; it is only interested in measurable results. Thus, the Moon in Capricorn commandeers Mars in Scorpio to get them without delay!
Later in the evening, the Moon in Capricorn challenges the Sun in Libra to take action without knowing the outcome based on emotions, to rein in relationships with authoritative solutions.
On the afternoon of October 1, the Moon moves into erratic Aquarius with lightning speed and unpredictable emotional energy, which threatens to intensify without control. The key to diminishing the emotional escalation lies in stepping away to regain detached composure with icy, calm communication.
Shortly after, concerns about heightened emotional vulnerability regarding home, family, and children may prove challenging, as Mercury in Libra squares off with Jupiter in Cancer to take a leap of faith that all is well despite conflicting circumstances.
Fortunately, the energy settles down in the early hours of October 2, as the Moon engages favorably with the Sun in Libra.
On the afternoon of October 3, mediation, cooperation, and negotiations set the tone for opposing perspectives to find a balancing point that heals wounds of self-abandonment through a communication of values relative to asserting boundaries without wavering to appease agendas.
Within an hour, the lunar phase becomes gibbous as the Moon in Aquarius is pregnant with emotional attachment about outcomes associated with relationships personified by the Sun in Libra. Both the Sun and Moon are in the element of air, so the inherent wobble of the gibbous phase is less noticeable as the Moon in Aquarius emotionally shifts with a ‘whatever’ attitude. At the same time, the Sun in Libra is confident, it will out work out for the best.
Before the day ends on October 3, the Moon drifts into elusive Pisces to soften the emotional edginess of the past few days, offering a chance to meditate, practice hypnosis, or engage in spiritual practices, or even indulge in a long three-day weekend of soothing and quiet bliss.

The celestial week of September 22, 2025, begins with shifting planetary energies affecting desires, relationships, financial resources, and self-worth. The recent solar eclipse occurred on September 21, at the same degree of sensible and conscious-minded Virgo, at which the Sun rose today, illuminating an opportunity to stay true to oneself, and on the path with a constant, unseen, sustaining energy always ready to welcome you home.
Whereas Mercury, the CEO of Virgo, is doing a balancing act in fair-minded Libra, keeping the wheels turning before the Sun leaves Virgo after lunch, to announce the Fall Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere when the Sun moves into airy Libra.
It is a shift in the yearly solar cycle, and the harvest of the seeds of intention planted at the Spring Equinox. During the next forty-five days, the harvest will be an indicator of how well the seeds have been nourished since then, by the yield produced.
It is also during this time that the leaves begin to fall, stripping the trees of color, while allowing more light to nourish the earth for sustenance during the coming winter. As nature mirrors humanity and humanity mirrors nature, it is also a time of maintaining a balance with all of our relations that nurtures the earth, which sustains life for humanity.
Venus, the planet of values, has just moved into practical Virgo with a reminder that conserving the resources necessary to sustain life increases the value and quality of life for all. Venus in Virgo has no qualms about getting its hands dirty and its thoughts clear, to achieve those values in the most effective way possible.
As Mercury in Libra and Venus in Virgo are supportive of the agendas each has that complement one another, a door of communication is open to work together in harmony to overcome prejudices with values of equality for the highest good of all.
Another major shift of energy occurred before the Sun came up, when Mars moved stealthily into powerful Scorpio, sharpening emotional sensory energy to discern what covert actions may be hidden regarding boundaries. Mars in Scorpio has an internal heightened suspicious radar, so complete transparency is the safest mode of operation during the next six weeks.
As the solar eclipse, fall equinox, and planetary shifts occur within days of one another, it may seem like a domino effect is taking place regarding direction and purpose in life, as well as whether the actions, values, and communication necessary to sustain it during the next six months are in place. The key is to be mindful that thoughts, actions, words, and values reflect the quality of reality, and adjust accordingly if personal reality isn’t up to par.
Just as the workday begins on September 23, the Sun in Libra opposes Neptune retrograde in Aries, behind the scenes, about a nonchalant attitude regarding delayed actions that are costly, as well as creating unnecessary havoc in the daily routines of the work environment.
Venus in Virgo, Mercury in Libra, and Mars in Scorpio attempt to restore harmony with win/win solutions, but the Sun is over it, and Neptune, retrograde in Aries, is not interested in cooperating.
In the early hours of September 24, the Moon joins Mars in Scorpio to support the actions of Mars relative to boundaries with Neptune retrograde in Aries, attitude adjustments with Uranus retrograde in Gemini, over wasting time playing on the computer or chatting with coworkers, instead of working, before handling challenges with Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, rebellious attitudes!
Fortunately, the Sun and Mercury are in charming Libra to assist in softening the escalation with diplomatic and authoritative values.
However, Mars in Scorpio has already taken powerful actions to shift the support of the Moon in Scorpio in its favor. Yet, the Sun and Mercury in Libra, along with Uranus retrograde in Gemini, are more inclined to side with Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, leaving Mars and Pluto to work out their challenges without interference.
Fortunately, the work week ends on a positive note as the Moon leaps into boundless Sagittarius, with an emotional motivation to get away from the stress of daily routines, with unplanned adventures with friends, to enjoy sports events, festivals, and short trips out of town!

The celestial week of September 15, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in humble Virgo, illuminating an opportunity to step back from a critical review of oneself under a microscope of perfection, with the courage and faith in your ability to carry a task to completion without doubt or worry.
Mercury is the CEO of Virgo and is adept at filtering out extraneous details with diligent research. However, the key to using the research is knowing when to stop counting the trees in the forest and step back to consider the big picture of sustaining it for an intended outcome.
Currently, the Sun and Mercury are united in Virgo, with the same ideas to reap the harvest of intentions planted at the recent Spring Equinox in March, and utilize information to plan and formulate a strategy for the next Spring Equinox in 2026!
Meanwhile, the Moon is trudging through emotionally sensitive Cancer, seeking to nurture career concerns to escape the harsh realities of current relationship challenges. While the Moon in Cancer has an innate ability to sense the emotional energy of the environment or others, its empathic tendency may experience some difficulty in discerning whether what it feels is personal or not. It is similar to a drop of water not knowing the difference between itself and the body of water in the ocean.
Thus, the key to mastering emotional clarity lies in the ability to quickly discern if an emotional reaction appears suddenly without a reason or source. If it feels confusing or overwhelming, take a step back and ask where this is coming from to bring clarity without accepting it as personal to avoid unnecessary relationship struggles.
On the midmorning of September 16, Mars in politically correct Libra opposes Chiron the wounded healer in impulsive Aries, illuminating an opportunity to seek a balance between feeling passive-aggressive anger in relationships that trigger wounds of abandonment, by releasing the anger at others and forgiving oneself for self-abandonment to appease others. Fortunately, Jupiter in Cancer is the mediator between Mars in Libra and Chiron in Aries, and proposes appropriate solutions to heal emotional wounds based on the origin of family dynamics.
Shortly after midnight on September 17, the Moon strides into charismatic Leo with the emotional motivation to pursue desires with the confidence of winning expectations! The Moon’s first planetary encounter is with Neptune retrograde in Aries, and it is more than happy to accommodate the Moon’s desires as it is mesmerized by its bold swagger! Uranus retrograde in Gemini is also supportive of the Moon, while Pluto retrograde in Aquarius refuses to be swayed or impressed by its bold emotional behaviors!
Shortly after lunch, Mercury in Virgo opposes Saturn retrograde in Pisces, illuminating a potential confrontation about Mercury’s projection that Saturn is dragging its heels to make a viable commitment to the plans of realizing career goals promptly. However, Saturn’s position is that the time isn’t right just now, while it has complete faith in the intended successful outcome.
In the early hours of September 18, Mercury glides into diplomatic Libra on a wing and a prayer, as the tail end of a kite formation with Uranus retrograde in Gemini, Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, and Neptune retrograde in Aries! Mercury’s current position in the planetary arena offers an opportunity to get that kite of ideas, plans, and projects off the ground, as Venus in Leo stands behind the scenes operating the strings of attraction!
The key is to utilize the charming demeanor and communication skills of Mercury in Libra to convey those ideas with a creative, convincing passion that assures promotional opportunities in the future when Pluto and Uranus move forward!
The caveat lies in getting Neptune retrograde in Aries on board to take action to ensure their visionary success. However, as the work day is ending, Neptune is still on the fence about investing financial resources for the time being. While Mercury in Libra is proficient at mediating a stalemate, it also knows when to bide its time for a more favorable outcome.

The celestial week of September 8, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in earthy, practical Virgo, illuminating an opportunity to experience a volcanic eruption of thoughts and ideas pouring out, as secret motives are revealed through Mercury in Virgo behind the scenes.
A lunar eclipse occurred on September 7, when the Earth moved directly between the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Pisces, casting a shadow on the Moon and making it appear to darken. As such, symbolically, the emotional characterization of the Moon in Pisces is hidden from the view of the Sun’s purpose to bring order to chaos.
The essence of the Sun’s position in Virgo at the lunar eclipse highlights an opportunity to observe consciousness through the power of language before attempting to fix what may not be broken. Whereas, the Moon’s position in Pisces offers inspired creativity from above with an openness to higher forces and ideas. Thus, the power of the recent lunar eclipse over the next six months is an opportunity to observe and integrate the awareness that individual consciousness is received from a Higher Power, and communicate it in a visionary, yet logical process that shifts the nature of personal and collective consciousness!
The opportunity to recognize this ability within oneself as a connection to Source energy and utilize it practically with faith creates an intention (consciously or unconsciously), which during the next two weeks will be the fuel of the solar eclipse in Virgo to evolve consciously over the next nineteen years!
The caveat is that Virgo energy is focused on mental details, while Pisces relies on emotional feelings for direction. Therefore, a balance is necessary to know when you have enough information to trust for decisions.
Meanwhile, the Moon is drifting toward Saturn retrograde in Pisces to emotionally support the foundation of faith, as Saturn has just returned to Pisces for a six-month hiatus to renew the power of faith through emotional experiences related to home and family relative to emotional and financial security.
Later in the evening, the Moon runs headlong into fiery Aries to vent emotional feelings without a logical filter of consequences relative to career relationships, goals, and the authoritative commitments of others to take actions to achieve desired results! However, the air is cleared regarding covert agendas, opportunities, and the financial investment of resources.
On the afternoon of September 10, the Sun in Virgo opposes the North Nodes in Pisces, illuminating an opportunity to notice whether the focus of consciousness is relative to doubt, worry, stress, or trust and faith that everything is working out for the highest good. The Sun is indicative of the purpose of individuality in life, while the North Node in Pisces is a spiritual and artistic calling of destiny that requires trusting that what cannot be seen is working out without visible evidence.
The energy of the opposition between the Sun in Virgo and the North Node in Pisces acts as a balancing point of giving and receiving through a transfer of knowledge, without competing emotionally about who or what is right.
Shortly after, the Moon wanders into calm and gentle Taurus for a brief interlude of emotional peace, before it collides with Pluto retrograde in Aquarius in a power struggle as the work day ends!
Fortunately, Venus, the ruling authority of Taurus, offers to intervene with the Sun in Virgo on behalf of the Moon’s stable position on who should be in charge of financial resources for a brief reprieve, as the Sun appoints Venus for that position!
On the evening of September 11, the Moon in Taurus offers emotional support for Mercury in Virgo, as Mercury opposes the North Node in Pisces to reiterate the message of the Sun’s position to remain focused on clearly communicating the purpose of conscious individuality relative to a spiritual destiny of soul enlightenment and evolution.
The Moon in Taurus is also quietly evaluating feelings of betrayal after trusting Venus in Leo to support the position of the Moon, instead of influencing the Sun to align with Venus.
On the afternoon of September 12, the Moon breezes into communicative Gemini for casual chatting with Uranus in Gemini before the weekend begins. The key is to keep it light and airy with emotional overtones, or it may quickly become filled with the unpredictable tension of a storm brewing on the horizon, before it erupts by the end of the weekend!

The celestial week of September 1, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in diligent Virgo, illuminating an opportunity to observe the duality of thought consciousness. As such, an interesting observation may be, “if this is what it is, what is it not, to have an understanding of what is being observed. The caveat is that the characterization of Virgo is more practical, realistic, and even a critical scientist who seeks proof of what is, and isn’t, instead of the theory of it.
However, Mercury, the CEO of Virgo, is moving through charismatic Leo, with a penchant for thinking on a grander scale, preferring to leave the details to the expertise of the Sun in Virgo. Yet, both are currently supporting the big picture of the creative process and how to materialize it into existence. Thus, knowing what it is not reveals what is subconsciously hidden that may sabotage the end results.
Meanwhile, the Moon is swinging off an emotional cliff into the potential of new possibilities, and a new way of life, suggested by Mercury in Leo!
Before the Sun rose, Saturn, the CEO of business, career, and government, retrograded back into visionary Pisces, for the last disappearing act of the next thirty years! Saturn in Pisces is the master artist with an innate ability to envision a reality that often escapes the awareness of others. Thus, now is an opportunity to refine, revise, and even re-envision the next thirty years with a plan of commitment for manifestation, before May 2026. The key is to make the commitment with the awareness that the plan requires the ability to be flexible with changes throughout the process, while holding the vision.
Later in the evening, the Moon leaves adventuresome Sagittarius to spend a couple of days in serious Capricorn, evaluating emotional commitments to visionary opportunities behind the scenes that will require care and nurturance during the next twelve years to reach its potential.
The first order of business for the Moon in Capricorn is to gain clarity about the necessary actions to sustain the vision from Neptune retrograde in Aries, which may pose a challenge. Neptune is the visionary dreamer and is unfamiliar and uncomfortable with details that feel overwhelming.
Shortly after, the Moon in Capricorn meets with Uranus in Gemini for information about the value and the necessary investment, to no avail! Uranus in Gemini has evolutionary ideas and the technical savvy to execute them, without a business plan in place.
The Moon’s next encounter is with Pluto retrograde in Aquarius regarding the transformation of innovative ideas into a foundation of security that will stand the test of time. The caveat is that Pluto’s role of power and position has not been clearly defined, and it is reluctant to be forthcoming until it is.
Fortunately, the Sun in Virgo is adept at gathering, organizing, and presenting the requested information and strategy to accomplish the vision and gain the financial investment and support of the Moon in Capricorn! Finally, someone to connect the dots with!
On the morning of September 2, Mercury joins the Sun in Virgo with a back-to-business attitude to put plans in motion to ensure the success of manifesting hopes, wishes, and dreams of the future now! Mercury’s first priority is to adjust the attitudes and work ethics of Neptune retrograde in Aries’s lack of interest to get on board with a committed plan of action, and the detached perceptions of Pluto retrograde in Aquarius relative to the potential transformation of ideas to ensure success, before expecting a position of power! Afterwards, Mercury in Virgo challenges Uranus in Gemini to disallow the distraction of playing with evolutionary ideas to focus on realistic ones that produce measurable results!
No one works harder than Mercury in Virgo. While it is agreeable to solutions that work and communicating them effectively, it has no patience for playing when there is work to accomplish! Therefore, if rolling up one’s mental and physical sleeves is required to complete goals, there is no better time than to start now!
Before the Sun comes up on September 4, the Moon bolts into eccentric Aquarius, feeling like a stranger in a strange land as it navigates the territory of Virgo with emotional detachment, without offending anyone on purpose. Therefore, the Moon joins Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini, Neptune retrograde in Aries, and Saturn retrograde in Pisces, following the proper protocol for what is expected before stepping on toes.
Before the day ends, Mars in Libra squares off with Jupiter in Cancer about taking a leap of faith in relationships that may elicit an emotional outburst of gigantic proportions! Thankfully, the Moon in Aquarius is a master at handling emotional storms with cool detachment!
Lastly, Uranus, the planet of evolutionary enlightenment and unpredictable chaos, goes retrograde in Gemini on the evening of September 5, so it may seem like a long… Mercury retrograde until it goes direct in February 2026! Thus, positions may be reversed without warning, travel plans and schedules may go up in the air at a moment’s notice, and private and sensitive information may be revealed in communication! Definitely a time to keep your own counsel regarding personal matters!

The celestial week of August 25, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in mental and crafty Virgo, illuminating an opportunity to bring order to chaos by connecting to a sense of inner guidance. The personification of Virgo has a unique talent and ability to bring order to chaos through organization, mental clarity, and an attitude to get the job done correctly with service and a smile. Therefore, today, calm and inner guidance lay the groundwork to begin the workday with quiet leadership that others follow without question.
Mercury is the manager of Virgo and has finally completed a recent retrograde cycle in Leo, and is more than ready to experience the warmth of renewal as the air is cleared of resolved issues that have been building up relative to creative, romance, and children.
Meanwhile, the Moon is concluding a visit to earthy Virgo with Venus in Cancer, before it moves into Libra, potentially facilitating emotional healing in relationships. Once the Moon enters Libra, it will help to deal with the brewing confrontations of Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Aries, quibbling over who has the authority to make responsible decisions about a vision for the future. Fortunately, the Moon in Libra is an emotional diplomat that can listen to both sides before engaging Uranus in Gemini and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius to consider fair and innovative solutions that transform differences with a powerful perspective, instead of holding on to past positions that could inhibit the growth of the vision.
Shortly after, Venus strides into regal Leo with the confidence to explore expansive opportunities to create that vision with an expression of love that magnifies it into manifestation! Thus, the next few weeks are a great opportunity to shine, doing what you love! The key is to step back from the shadow of the ego, which may expect recognition or a reward for the effort expended, and create for the joy of creating!
In the early hours of August 27, Venus in Leo opposes Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, so there may be a come-apart relative to expansive spending for self-adornment. The caveat is that the values of Venus are a mirror of oneself, often projected onto others. Thus, consider the value of what is being projected, and own it as a characteristic of oneself, instead of attempting to gift it to others. Then, it can become a gift to oneself that keeps on giving in value!
Later in the evening, the Moon dives into the emotional depths of powerful Scorpio with a desire to bare one’s soul with a trusted partner, which may trigger a passive-aggressive reaction as a defense mechanism to either protect the relationship or evade the issue. However, Mars is the energy that Scorpio plays fire with, so even though Mars in Libra is adept at smoothing out troubled waters, it may be wiser not the test them now.
The Moon in Scorpio has a full plate to handle with six other planets, so emotional patience may be wearing thin. The first order of business is a yod formation with Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Aries, and Uranus in Gemini, so chattiness and a lack of commitment to actions will only result in an abrupt dismissal of all three until they can handle attitude adjustments with grace and different behaviors! Then Venus in Leo comes under the emotional gun of the Moon in Scorpio regarding a difference in relationship values, which may cause an emotional drama-trauma that leaves deep battle scars. Therefore, the rest of the week may be spent better with some emotional distance all the way around!

The celestial week of August 18, 2025, begins with the Sun rising in commanding Leo, illuminating an opportunity to experience relief from stressful situations with purposeful and creative desires.
Mercury, in Leo, is standing behind the Sun in Leo, and is the focal point in a kite configuration between Saturn/Neptune retrograde in Aries, Uranus in Gemini, Mars in Libra, and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius. Whereas another kite configuration has Mars as the focal point between the same planets. Thus, the simpatico relationship between Mercury in Leo and Mars in Libra provides an opportunity to lift both kites of energy relative to responsible commitments, and visionary, intuitive ideas off the ground with revolutionary ideas and bold actions of courage that appear to leave comfort and security behind for principles of freedom and equality.
There is also a five-point star configuration depicted by Saturn/Neptune retrograde in Aries, Uranus in Gemini, Mercury in Leo, Mars in Libra, and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius. Esoterically, the five-point star is indicative of humanity’s place on earth and the cosmos as drawn by Leonardo deVinci as the Vitruvian Man. Between the flowing and harmonious energy of the kites and the star pointing to Uranus, the planet of evolution, there are ample opportunities to experience heaven on earth through intuitive ideas, evolutionary transformation, win/win actions, and a commitment to visionary ideals.
Meanwhile, the Moon is breezing through Gemini to support the creative purpose of the Sun with communication that stirs desires into expression. Afterwards, the Moon becomes void of course until later in the afternoon, leaving other planetary interactions to flow without emotional interference or support.
Later, the Moon wades into the sensitive emotional pond of Cancer with a brief interlude of solitude before challenging interactions occur with Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Aries over being responsible for individual needs and desires, instead of expecting others to do it for them.
A few hours later, attitude adjustments are on the menu of relating with Pluto retrograde in Aquarius to curtail rebellious behaviors for attention. Afterwards, the Moon has a brief emotional respite until the early hours of August 19, as unsettled feelings from the previous interactions may interrupt sleep, with potential resolutions presented in dreams.
The emotional landscape shifts dramatically on the evening of August 20, as the Moon blazes into charismatic Leo with an opportunity to release past experiences around family, childhood, and romantic relationships with a heart full of love and forgiveness during the balsamic lunar phase before the new moon cycle in Virgo on August 23. Other than a confrontation with Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, illuminating a potential power struggle to hold onto past grievances, all of the other planets on stage are supportive of the Moon in Leo’s ability to demonstrate love and grace under pressure.
On the afternoon of August 22, the Sun enters methodical and practical Virgo, illuminating an opportunity to tend the garden of consciousness with meticulous precision, and eliminate the weeds of negative thoughts, words, emotions, or any state of mind that chokes out the available abundance of creation.
The Sun in Virgo is governed by Mercury in Leo, so the planets are in mutual reception to increase the yield of productive thoughts, which has the potential to multiply an abundant and prosperous harvest, once Mercury is out of the shadow on August 25.
Before the day ends, Venus in Cancer confronts Chiron retrograde in Aries over hurt feelings that stir up old wounds for healing.
