On SEPTEMBER 2016 we have the following main configurations: 

This month is full of interesting events, major changes should occur and you must be prepared for them: two eclipses, Jupiter ingress in Libra, Mercury is in retrograde motion and Mars ends its retrograde cycle.

Jupiter in Libra forms another T-square: Jupiter-Uranus-Pluto, unfortunately the violent tendencies remains, but it will be more explicit, direct and decisive. In the same time, this aspect is more motivating.

Jupiter in Libra forms a very harmonious aspect between Jupiter and Saturn, a sextile with mutual reception (Jupiter in Libra is in Saturn’s exaltation, and Saturn in Sagittarius, in Jupiter’s domicile): constructive, organization and prosperity, on a general and individual scale. It’s a major change of tune, considering the fact that as long as Jupiter was in Virgo (August 2015 – September 2016), Jupiter was in a square with Saturn, and the result was a grand mess of things, with discontinuous and contradictory actions.

But for now, the Sun eclipse on September 1 2016, that is formed at 9°21′ in Virgo, in opposition with Neptune and in a square with Mars and Saturn, could hand another dose of stress, distraction, and confusion, if not even worse. And the Moon eclipse on September 16 2016 seems to have the same tendencies.

PERSONAL PLANETS IN RETROGRADE MOTION during this month:

MERCURY in VIRGO is retrograde until 21st of September: You can become obsessed with detailed knowledge. This may be to your detriment in daily life, although it is very beneficial for doing any kind of research. You like to be precise in your communications with others. Avoid to be too critical with your loved ones or/and with your work team!

During of the 22nd of September, the SUN moves to LIBRA: Happy Birthday for all natives! 

MOON PHASES (at Greenwich Borough local time):

NEW MOON IN VIRGO on 1st of September at 10:03: With this occasion you will have an annular solar eclipse and it will be visible from Madagascar and locations in Central Africa. The Moon’s shadow will also cross parts of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. For most
viewers in Africa, the eclipse will be a partial solar eclipse.

Until 23rd of September, VENUS is in LIBRA: You are a real hunter of harmony in your personal relationships, because of this you become vulnerable when is about compromises. Harmony should be in yourself, then you will find it everywhere you go. Creativity is favored.

Between 23rd of September and 18th of October, VENUS is in SCORPIO: You are searching for ideal in your love relationship and you have very powerful sexual needs. Take care of your demanding attitude because it is hard for your partner to face your requests. A very good period for investments.

MARS transits:

Until 27th of September MARS is in SAGITTARIUS and it completed its retrograde cycle: all unpleasant events occurred in this spring will disapear, but only if you done the corrections and you did not expect to be solved your issued by default.

Between 27th of September and 9th of November MARS is in CAPRICORN, in exaltation, the most powerful position of this planet: You are able to transform any idea into reality, in an efficient way. You are ambition, energic and unstoppable. Sports are very favored.

This month marks the beginning of a new stage: on the 22nd Mercury resumes its direct motion, on the 26th it’s Pluto’s turn to resume its direct motion, and on the 27th Mars finally ends its retrograde cycle and enters Capricorn, where it feels very comfortable, because it’s its exaltation sign. But until then, we might have some trouble ahead.

*) If you do not know yet your Ascendant you may find it very easy by using any other free astrology website or software that you can find on internet. For this calculation you need: day, month, year, location, hour and minutes of your birth. If you have possibility try to use the Whole signs (house system) because it is the oldest house system (used by ancient Greek astrologers) who has proven its real value during history.

I wish you the best transits!
