September begins with Mars, your ruler, moving through Gemini and crossing the zenith over 21° N around the 10th, giving your month an unsettled yet highly charged momentum. Conversations become battles, and simple errands feel like campaigns, but the benefit is quick thinking and a capacity to cut through confusion. The solar eclipse of 21 September at 28° Virgo squares your sign, forcing attention onto health, routines, and hidden weaknesses in your daily rhythm.
Mid-month, Mercury’s direct station at 5° Virgo (15 September) pushes unfinished matters back into focus. What seemed delayed in August now accelerates, but only if you are prepared to revise your habits with precision. Jupiter at 13° Cancer continues to form a square to Aries’ early degrees, highlighting domestic and family concerns that compete with your drive for independence. Old responsibilities feel heavier, yet they are necessary scaffolding for your next push.
By the end of the month, the lunar eclipse at 6° Aries on 7 September still echoes, setting up a six-month cycle of personal redefinition. Your relationships reflect back the truth of who you are becoming, sometimes harshly. The lesson of September is not to force everything into combat, but to recognise when to use your fire strategically. Precision and endurance outplay reckless force now.
