Saturn, your ruler, is retrograde in Pisces at 14°, stabilising your third house of communication and local affairs. This gives September a contemplative undertone, urging you to refine your thinking and speech. The lunar eclipse of 7 September at 6° Aries challenges your home and family base, exposing underlying tensions. The solar eclipse of 21 September at 28° Virgo supports expansion, travel, and philosophical growth, but it requires letting go of rigid certainties.
Pluto, freshly in Aquarius, continues to nudge the earliest Capricorns to redefine values and financial structures. This is deep work is not to be rushed. With Mercury turning direct mid-month, clarity returns to long-term planning, making the second half of September stronger for decisive movement.
Venus combust at the equinox may obscure professional relationships temporarily, but this is a brief retreat before new patterns emerge. The balance of September lies in seeing that endurance is not the same as resistance; flexibility enhances your strength.
