Monthly horoscope >> September 2008 ___________ |

Aries
|
At the start of September, you appear to be running yourself down and taking on too much. You may not have much choice, however, because the problem seems to be that management has not been able to hire enough personnel to do all the work that needs to be done. Take care of your health, particularly near September 3 when Saturn will oppose the Sun. This will be a very difficult day.
The very next day, September 4 - a Thursday - you will get VERY exciting news about your career, thanks to Jupiter in perfect angle to the Sun. Another day to keep your eyes open for fabulous developments in your career will be September 8 when Jupiter, Pluto, and Saturn will work together to speed up the pace in your career progress. If you are in college, again, you''ll be in luck on September 4 because Jupiter rules your ninth house of higher education. Now that July and August are over, you may have more time to devote to physical fitness. The new moon that occurred last month on August 30 will exert a lot of energy in early September.
Romantically, it''s clear that seriously attached Aries will do a little better than those who are single and looking for love. The heavy-duty planetary aspect on September 3 (which may bring untoward news about a love relationship), and the wild ones at mid-month near September 15, will be hard on everyone. You may be a little distracted and not in the mood for romance.
Best romantic evenings:
September 6,11, 17, 21, 25, and 30

Taurus
|
September will be neatly sliced in two, with love and friendship to be your focus during the first half, and your work and your health and fitness the focus in the second half.
Let''s start at the top of the month. The new moon that arrived late last month on August 30, in your house of true love, will still be strong in the first week of September and will turn your thoughts to a person you''ve been dating. This new moon appeared very close to Saturn, so that suggests you are about to make a serious, long-term decision about your love life. If you have been dating, then it will be about the person you''ve been dating. If you are single and not dating, then Saturn will make you discriminating, yet practical and realistic, about whom you start to date.
The Sun also rules your home in the solar Taurus chart, so you may have to make a decision about where to live or about whether you can afford to buy a house or renovate The very next day, September 4, Jupiter and the Sun will be at lovely angles. Jupiter will be in your travel sector, and the Sun in your creative sector.
As you get into the second half of September, your office, store, or studio - your workplace - will be very busy, for Mars will circulate in your sixth house of new assignments all month. If you were hoping to take a vacation, it seems not to be possible, for your boss will need all hands on deck.
Best days if you are in a happy relationship or hope to find someone new:
September 4, 10,17-18, 23, and 26-27

Gemini
|
September will be a big month for home and family and career matters.
Let''s start at the top of the month. Late last month, on August 30, a very positive new moon arrived in your house of home. As the month opens, you may be concentrating on your home, whether in terms of a move to a new address, or you may have plans to refurbish, repair, clean, or reorganize your space. If you close on a house or sign a lease at this time, you seem to be thinking through things very thoroughly. However, you may wonder how you will meet your financial obligations. Things you do on September 3 will be very long term, but this can be good in that you WILL be able to keep up with all you commit to now. The very next day, September 4, you may see a case in point when Jupiter will be in excellent angle to the Sun, and Jupiter may help you improve a home / property / mortgage or family situation in the nick of time. Jupiter will also be moving through your same house of money. This is to be Gemini''s year to see a large sum of money arrive, so hang in there - it appears to be on the way. If it does not arrive this month, it should show up by end of the year.
If you work in a creative field, or publishing / broadcasting, you may have a brand new project that begins at this time too, for the new moon will also help you in that way . Other stellar romantic days to enjoy love:
September 4, 17, 19, 21, 28, and 29 plus two weeks.
A career situation comes out-of-the-blue, rattling you: September 15

Cancer
|
As the month starts, you''ll be concentrating hard and in somewhat of a thoughtful, somber mood. On September 3, Saturn will conjoin the Sun in your third house of perception and thinking, so it seems something will be weighing on your mind - it might be money. Alternatively, near September 3 you may be thinking a lot about the health or well-being of your father, your partner if you are in a relationship with a man, or a male boss. Saturn conjunct the Sun can be a weighty aspect, one that may make you feel a little tired, overwhelmed, and more sensitive to criticism. Try not to overreact. Take the helpful parts of the feedback and leave the rest.
September 4 brings you one of the sunniest aspects of the month, a lovely interplay between lucky Jupiter and the Sun. If you were worried about money as the month begins, this day could bring good news from a person based in a distant city. One area that will be a hands-down winner for you all month will have to do with your home or other property. You may be planning to move or have plans to fix up your home so you can entertain friends later as the winter holidays come closer. If you need to sign a lease, order furniture, or hire a contractor, do so between September 1 and 11.
You can use September 11 to your advantage, and you''ve several choices. If you hope to find beautiful new additions for your home, from choosing a new rug or couch to paint colors or new accessories, home aesthetics of all kinds will be favored, so later you should really enjoy your selections. You are a Cancer, ruled by the moon, so you feel these full moons more directly than most. I believe most people will feel a bit wrung out by this particular full moon simply because Uranus will be so prominent and bring up such unexpected news.
Travel will be unstable and difficult in the first half of September, but especially on or near:
September 3, 12, and in days surrounding September 15.

Leo

You are tired of having to go through stressful financial situations, and in March, when you faced your last one, you vowed to be sure this wouldn''t happen again. Of course, it''s always possible that you will make a math error, causing a cascading number of checks to bounce. Ugh, what a nightmare. You can avoid this by double-checking your figures and by calling the bank''s automated service each day to be sure that your checks are going through. However, if you''ve put your trust in someone who owes you money but who is proving over and over again that he or she can''t be trusted, you will have to put certain controls in place or take certain actions.
The first aspect will arrive September 3, when Saturn will conjunct the Sun. This is a rather sobering aspect and you may feel things more strongly than most because you are ruled by the Sun. Saturn, the planet that teaches us life lessons, will meet up with the Sun in your second house of earned income.
Don''t panic. The very next day, September 4, you may hit on an idea or get an unexpected breakthrough concerning money, much to your surprise! Jupiter, the lucky planet, will be in perfect angle to the Sun, your ruler, on that day, which could literally SAVE the day. Although it''s clear you have woes about money in September, the first week brims with opportunity. The new moon that appeared at the end of last month, August 30, was actually quite wonderful for you. Its energy will be very strong as you begin September, for approximately ten days. Your first notice that something is up will come when the Sun and Uranus will be at odds, on Friday, September 12. This is sure to be a very hard day when you may feel like you unexpectedly touched a live wire. News will come at you quite unexpectedly, in a way you''d never imagine.
For every difficult situation there is always an answer. If you recall, on September 8, both Jupiter and Pluto will turn direct. Because both planets are essentially financial planets, things will look up for you. Both planets will help you either get a new job, work side jobs, or earn overtime. If you are self-employed, you can now be quite effective in bringing in new business.Keep your health up to par all month, as the aspects on September 3 and 12 and during the full moon period September 13-19 will be very jarring and exhausting. Also during these periods, you may be worried about the health or well-being of a prominent person in your life - a parent, spouse, lover, or boss. This person may be not feeling well or be very tense, but will appreciate your care and wise advice.
Romantically, travel will increase your ability to have fun and relax and also help you meet and greet new people. This would be particularly true in late September.
Best romantic days: September 5-6, 11, 24-, and 28-29.

Virgo
|
Your first challenge comes immediately when Saturn will conjunct the Sun in Virgo on September 3. There is one of two ways this could work out. In the first case, you may have a crisis of confidence, where you get jittery nerves just at the last minute. You''ll need to steel your nerves and ask yourself how much you believe in the projects and relationships you''ve committed to over the past year.
This day will be prone to make you see the darker side of any question, and if you are exhausted and worn to the bone, this tendency will be even more pronounced. If someone criticizes you (possible), try to take the more helpful elements of their words and discard the rest. In just one day you may see things turn around in your favor.
The other way this may play out on September 3 is that you may have some serious thinking to do about a partner in your life. At this point you won''t have full information - that will come on September 13 and September 15, plus or minus four days.
The middle of the month will be your time, though. Friday, September 12, will bring Uranus to an exact opposition the Sun in Virgo, and you will feel as though news was hurled at you like a meteor from space. You won''t see this coming, and I am sorry to say that this will be a very rocky time for one of your key relationships.
Romance will be best: September 4, 8-10, and 27.

Capricorn
|
The world is your oyster this month, and if your skeptical Capricorn side should doubt this, you will have plenty of evidence of the truth of this by the time the month is done.
Last year, on December 18, 2007, Jupiter entered Capricorn for the first time since 1996. At that time you were crowned the celestial favorite. Often during golden years such as this, we find we are so busy planting seeds for the future that we barely have time to realize how potent a period it is. This could be the case for you. A whole new chapter is rapidly opening up for you, almost daily, right before your eyes!
Meanwhile, Pluto, the planet of transformation, is currently finishing up a long tour of Sagittarius, a tour Pluto started in 1995. It takes 246 years for Pluto to circle the Sun, so when Pluto settles into Capricorn on November 27 of this year, it will be for a fifteen-year stay. During that time Pluto will completely transform your life in a gradual way, from the inside out. The longer a planet spends in a house, the more indelible the experience.
All that changes on September 8 when both planets will go direct, ironically on the very same day. This will change everything! Put a big red circle on September 8, plus or minus about two days. Look for signs that your life is about to move forward again - you should see at least one obvious, gratifying sign to cheer you!
You are ruled by Saturn, so for you, this is no sweat. On September 3, you will be asked to exhibit visionary leadership while remaining practical and circumspect. You may make an important commitment at this time.
On September 3, Saturn may make you feel a bit more tired than usual. The Sun rules vitality, but Saturn will exert a constricting influence. If you should start to notice that you are seeing the proverbial glass as half empty rather than half full, your pessimism may be due to simple exhaustion. Getting more rest will put you back in good form again.
Your career will go great guns in September, so keep pushing with all your might! This month stands as one of your very most important for professional advancement.
Your boss may need you to travel to complete a deal that you''ve been working on, but as just said, it would not be a good time to draw up a contract. This time, however, the reasons go beyond Mercury retrograde.
Romance is possible, too, even though you do have a great deal on your plate this month! Your best time will be when Venus moves into Scorpio and your house of friends, fun, and events, from September 23 to October 18.
Most enjoyable romantic evenings: September 3, 4, 8-10, 17, 23, and 26-27.
Your career will be on fire, and you''ll make a great impression: all month, especially on September 11.

Libra

September seems to signal a fresh start. In north hemispheres, the leaves will soon begin to change, and fall clothes, long tucked away, will have to come out and be pressed. To that end, the universe seems to be sending a particularly strong message at the start of September by sending Saturn conjunct the Sun. This annual event will happen this year on Wednesday, September 3, in Virgo, filling your twelfth house of the subconscious mind and behind-the-scenes activities.
If you find you feel low in spirit or energy as you enter September, it could be that you are simply tired or resisting the idea of getting back into a structured workaday world.
To make your transition to the coming season''s work schedule easier, give yourself something to look forward to during the first week of September.
You may find something to cheer about the very next day, September 4. The Sun and Jupiter will form a perfect collaboration on that day, bringing you good news about a real estate or other home or family-related goal.
very important, happy date to keep your eye on will be September 8. On this day both Pluto and Jupiter will turn direct motion and stay in good, strong, sturdy motion for months.
Romantically, keep in mind that September 11 should be a star-spangled night, just made for love!
A friend''s illness, or alternatively, covert behavior, may concern you: September 3.
Romance will be best: September 6, 8, 11, 17, 19-21, 29, and 30.
A new chapter begins in your life: September 29 - October 7

Scorpio

The month holds more intricate twists and turns than a Hitchcock movie and you''ll have to use a scorecard to keep up.
You won''t be alone. A host of dramatic planetary alignments will be having a similar effect on just about everyone. With everyone feeling a bit manic, you can imagine how wild September will be at times!
Let''s have a look at the month from the top. The new moon that occurred last month, on August 30, will still be exerting a strong pull on you as the month opens, and this new moon will focus you strongly on your friends.There is one day that may prove to be somber as the month opens, September 3. The meeting of the Sun to Saturn will occur then, and is considered a very weighty aspect. At that time a friend may face a very difficult situation and ask for your help.Alternatively, on or near September 3, you may volunteer for a very complex and responsible position on a club, charity, or board (such as the condo or tenants committee). Heading this committee would raise your status substantially, but you may be very concerned about whether you can handle all the responsibility you have taken on.Thankfully, the following day brings a brightening of your mood. On September 4, thanks to a lovely interplay between Jupiter and the Sun, you will be quite articulate, persuasive, and superb at conveying what you feel needs to be done.
It would be best to complete important talks as early in September as possible, as Mercury will retrograde from September 24 to October 15. If you can''t finish things in the first week, see if you can table talks and formal agreements to late October.

Sagittarius
|
As you start September, it will be clear to one and all that you''re serious about moving forward in your career. Your timing will be perfect. The new moon that appeared late last month on August 30 last month brilliantly lit your tenth house of honors, awards, achievement, and fame. The energy of that new moon will still be strong as you enter September. This is the first time of the year that you''ve had all conditions right to go for the gold.
On September 3, Saturn will conjoin the Sun, and you may feel the effects in many ways. You may be very cognizant of the weight of the decisions you are making now, and may even feel a bit overwhelmed by the responsibilities that others are entrusting to you.
It is alternatively possible that you will choose to leave your job or sever a business relationship, and if this is how things play out, you''ll feel very sure about your decision and you won''t even turn your head to watch the door close behind you.
On the following day, September 4, your guardian planet, Jupiter, will make a decisive and very friendly beam to the Sun, linking your house of fame to your house of money in a spectacular way. Put a big gold star on this day, for you''re sure to take a giant leap forward! Schedule meetings, interviews, presentations, qualifying exams, and other key events for this very special day. If you were born on December 3, or within five days of this date, you will get a double dip of luck.
Your good luck will keep on rolling. Next you need to watch September 8, a very key date in your timeline, as Jupiter and Pluto will both turn direct on that day. These two planets have been retrograde a long time - Pluto, since April 4, and Jupiter, since May 9 - and so for the past four to five months you''ve had to be content with small incremental victories, but nothing on the scale that you were aiming for. All that changes now.
With your career blooming in just the right ways, having home, family, or property will be hard to juggle. While there is never an ideal time to be pulled in two different directions, this month it seems all the harder to do both. Last month''s eclipses on August 1 and 16 may be causing you to travel very far, and it seems evident that you''ll have to keep everything humming at home while you are gone. It will not be easy, as Uranus can create a raw, nerve-jangling effect.
You''ll feel the full weight of career responsibility, but give yourself a pat on the back: September 3.
Best romantic evenings: September 4, 6-7, 11, 17, 21, 24-, and 29-30.

Aquarius
|
As an Aquarius, you prefer to center your thinking on ideas, not money, but this month it looks like you''ll have to do both.
Last month, the new moon that appeared on August 30 in your eighth house of credit, loans, mortgages, and joint financial matters marked an opportunity to redesign or reorganize your finances. The caveat was that you would have to be ruthlessly objective and practical, for this new moon appeared very close to Saturn. All new moons open a window of two weeks, but the actions you take during that phase will affect you for the entire year to come.
On Wednesday, September 3, Saturn will conjunct the Sun in your eighth house of credit, taxes, and financial obligations. This is a rather sobering, constrictive influence. A financial obligation may be coming due and press on you. Whatever is going on could make you feel frozen and unable to think straight. You always have options, of course, but at this point you may not be able to think of any.
The very next day, Thursday, September 4, the mood changes completely, when a near-miraculous breakthrough may occur. Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, will send the Sun a beautiful, extremely supportive beam on your behalf.
Like everything else in life, we have good days and bad days. You will still have one more challenge to face before you can breathe a sigh of relief.
Whatever occurs has you thinking about it all weekend. You''ll not have all the information until the full moon arrives, Monday, September 15. You need to watch your health all month, as the aspect on September 3 and 12-18 will be emotional and draining. As I said earlier, things WILL improve. Have faith, dear Aquarius.
Romance will be linked to your trips too, so if you can find a way to get out of town, take it. If you can''t go, taking classes in college, through seminars, or weekend retreats will all prove highly inspirational and uplifting.
Very difficult financial discussions arise on September 3, 12, and 15 (plus three days). Keep a light schedule on these dates to be able to concentrate on what comes up.
Your most romantic dates: September 4 (blind dates), 6-8, 11 (September 11 is a four-star day, especially if you travel), 17, and 28-30.

Pisces

It certainly has not been easy being a Pisces, but each day you have shown that you can flourish - not merely survive - under recent pressures. Each day you gain more strength, and when Saturn departs Virgo in October 2009, you will be a new and improved version of yourself.
You are now halfway through your journey with Saturn in Virgo, a process that began in September 2007 and has one more year to go. Although Saturn stays with us for two years, we only feel Saturn most for about nine months, during the time Saturn is mathematically within five degrees of a direct opposition to your Sun.
Now let''s turn our attention to this month, September. I will admit that this month won''t feel easy during the first two weeks. Some of the year''s hardest aspects will arrive at that time. Everyone, of every sign, will feel these aspects, of course, but the mutable signs will be particularly so - Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, and Sagittarius. Think of September as a month when you''ll know what''s valuable and what''s not. Don''t bemoan anything or anyone that you need to leave behind. Those are part of your past, dear Pisces, not your future.
A partner or collaborator - in your personal life or in the romantic sense - may be very critical. If so, try not to take to heart all that is said. As a Pisces, your strength is your exquisite sensitivity, but during times like this, you may overreact to this person''s words. It would be hard not to, but be kind to yourself and try to keep a little distance.
You will see just what steadfast supporters your friends are on the very next day, Thursday, September 4, when Jupiter will send a brilliant beam to the Sun.
If you feel your career has stagnated a little over the past five months, the reason is that since April Pluto has been retrograde as well. Based in your tenth house of fame and honors, Pluto will ALSO turn direct on the same day that Jupiter will normalize its orbit, September 8.
Romance will be unstable for some Pisces, but to reiterate, the problems might not pertain to a personal partner but rather a business associate.
Friends will be precious jewels to you: All month but doubly so on September 4.
