SEPTEMBER 2026
Jamón Jamón
You're not in love. You're hungry.
If September had a director, it would be Bigas Luna in 1992: sweat, jamón, motorbikes, a bull silhouetted against a Spanish sky, and four people wanting each other so badly the whole thing catches fire and nobody thinks to stop it.
That's what this month does. August took your face — the solar eclipse took the mask, the lunar eclipse took the myth — and now you're standing in September with a new self, no instructions, and an appetite you haven't fed in two years. HOROSCOPES FOR ALL ZODIAC SIGNS
Lola Films, 1992. Jamón jamón, dir. Bigas Luna.
Jamón Jamón is the right guide here for a reason bigger than the ham. It's a film about desire as a force, as an appetite. The thing that makes people ruin their lives on purpose and call it living. Venus enters Scorpio on the 10th, and
Scorpio wants to consume or be consumed.
(Preferably both, in that order.)
Week One: The Blocked Appetite (Sept 1–9)
The month opens frustrated, and honestly that's the correct dramatic structure. On the 1st, Mars in Cancer squares Saturn retrograde in Aries, which is the sky showing off. You want something. The door is shut, but Mars in Cancer wants it protectively, now… Saturn in Aries says: prove it. Do not read this as a no. Read it as the appetiser. Frustration at the start of a Venus-in-Scorpio month is not a detour, but the pressure that makes the rest of it worth anything.
Lola Films, 1992. Jamón jamón, dir. Bigas Luna.
September 10: The Day Everything Turns
Three things happen at once and none of them are polite.
Venus enters Scorpio.
You don't just want a date, you want to be devoured. Depth, obsession, jealousy, loyalty, the entire cellar, including the parts of the cellar you'd rather guests didn't see. Venus in Scorpio flirting style: she watches you across a room until you feel it on the back of your neck and turn around.
Mercury enters Libra.
Here's the comedy: your mouth has entered its diplomatic era while your body has entered its Scorpio era. Charm on the surface, hunger underneath. The mouth says "coffee?" The eyes say something that would not survive a content review. Mercury in Libra makes negotiation sexy and makes flirting look, to the untrained observer, like ordinary conversation.
Uranus stations retrograde in Gemini:
reversing until February 2027. The future stops advancing and starts reviewing. Whatever you rushed into since Uranus entered Gemini gets a second read.
Lola Films, 1992. Jamón jamón, dir. Bigas Luna.
September 11: New Moon in Virgo — The Seed That Goes in the Finale
The cleanest reset of the year, and we don't just have a well thought out plan, we have the energy to actually start. The Virgo New Moon plan is a plan that's part genius, part fantasy. Write it down and then check it in the morning.
Here is the part nobody is clocking:
This New Moon's corresponding Full Moon is the LUNAR ECLIPSE IN VIRGO on February 20, 2027. The grand finale of the entire Virgo/Pisces saga.
Whatever you plant on September 11th, you harvest at the finale. The eclipse series that started in September 2024 and spent two years dissolving your life closes on that Virgo eclipse and the last seed goes in now. Plant carefully as this one's going in the last act.
The Middle: Power and the Wound (Sept 14–19)
On the 14th, the Sun and Mars connect positively in the sky, bringing a genuinely useful day. Bigast actually produces a result, so do the admin, send the invoice, or book the appointment you've been avoiding since June.
On the 15th, two outer planets shake hands: Mr. Neptune and Mr. Pluto. This is generational, it will not fix your week, and it has no opiBigasabout your Tuesday. What it does mean is that what you imagine right now can become a transformation trigger. The dream and the power are in the same room and, for once, speaking, which means your vision can become usable.
The wound comes home to the self on the 17th, Chiron retrogrades back into Aries, leaving Taurus behind. Whatever the August eclipses stripped off you, this is where it aches, not to punish you, but because it finally has nowhere left to hide. There's nothing left covering it. That's the entire design.
On the 19th, Venus enters her pre-shadow. She retrogrades October 3rd in the sign of Scorpio, and slips back into Libra on the 17th, and doesn't station direct until November 13th. Translation: everyone you meet between now and October gets looked at again, properly, in daylight, with the soundtrack off. Bigas Luna would have started the film here.
Lola Films, 1992. Jamón jamón, dir. Bigas Luna.
Libra Season: The Beautiful Fog (Sept 22–30)
The Sun leaves the spreadsheet and walks into the party on September 22, when the Sun enters Libra bringing balance, beauty, and other people.
Then the 26th stacks everything at once.
Sun in Libra opposite Neptune in Aries: rose-tinted glasses, full prescription, no receipt. Sun in Libra trine Pluto in Aquarius: a real transformation on the table, if you can see through the haze.
And in the middle of it: the Full Moon in Aries exactly conjunct Neptune, with Saturn close enough to be in the photograph. This is the harvest of the New Moon in Aries from April 17th. Whatever you started back then comes due now, and it comes due in weather.
Everyone is beautiful. Nobody is real.
Do not sign anything.
Feel it completely, cry if you need to, but this is a Neptune Full Moon, which means your instincts are gorgeous and your judgement is compromised, and those two facts are best kept in separate rooms until the 28th.
Herb Ritts (1990)
Lola Films, 1992. Jamón jamón, dir. Bigas Luna.
September 27: Enter Bardem, on a Motorbike
Mars enters Leo and stays until November 25th.
Mars in Cancer wanted to be held. Mars in Leo wants to be watched. The strut returns, or should we say bullfight. Everything you've been doing defensively since August, you're about to do in public, on purpose, with the lighting arranged. And you're going to enjoy it, which is the part you'll pretend to be surprised by.
On the 28th, the Sun in Libra trines Uranus in Gemini: If you receive an unexpected invitation on the 28th, say yes, as it could well be a sideways opportunity. And on the 30th, Mercury enters Scorpio: The mind joins the body in the dark.
The Through-Line
The month opens with a blocked desire and closes with Mars in Leo and Mercury in Scorpio, which is to say, it opens with “you can’t" and ends with “you absolutely will.”
Jamón Jamón is not just a love story. It's a story about people who want things so much they stop pretending to be civilised about it— and it ends, famously, with two men beating each other with legs of cured ham, which is either a tragedy or the most honest fight scene in cinema, depending entirely on your mood. The astrology agrees with the film: Venus in Scorpio, Mercury in Scorpio, Mars in Leo, and a Full Moon so drenched in Neptune it barely knows its own name.
You're not in love. You're hungry.
Eat well.
Lola Films, 1992. Jamón jamón, dir. Bigas Luna.
FORECASTS FOR THE SIGNS
READ FOR YOUR RISING & SUN
ARIES RISING • SUN • MOON
— The Wound Comes Home
Everything this month routes through Mars, and Mars — your ruler, your engine, the reason you have never once waited politely for a table is currently in Cancer, which is a bit like putting a Formula 1 car in a bathtub. Mars in Cancer broods, does the dishes aggressively, and sends a text at 11:40pm that begins with "anyway."
The thing you want at home or in your private life is being blocked by your own sense of what you're allowed to want. Saturn's been in your sign all year building you a stricter self, and on the 1st that stricter self says no to something your gut said yes to three weeks ago. Sit in the frustration as it's is the entire setup.
Then on the 10th, Venus enters Scorpio and your 8th house: depth, merging, other people's money, sex, secrets, therapy, inheritance, and the general business of being known past the point of comfort. Venus in Scorpio here does not want a nice dinner, it wants absorption. This is not your usual register, as you like the chase and the 8th house is what happens *after* the chase, when someone has your passwords and an opinion about your mother. So be honest with yourself about how much you actually want to be seen that closely. Then note the date: Venus enters her pre-shadow on the 19th and stations retrograde on October 3rd. Anything you merge, sign, or entangle between now and then gets fully re-examined in October.
September 11's New Moon lands in your 6th house: health, routine, basically the daily grind, the unglamorous machinery that runs your entire life. This New Moon's harvest is the lunar eclipse in Virgo, in this same 6th house, on February 20th 2027: the grand finale of the whole two-year saga. So the habit, the job, the routine you plant on the 11th is the one that takes a bow at the ending. Plant the real one, not the one that screenshots well on a habit tracker.
Then the 17th: Chiron reverses out of Taurus and back into your sign. Chiron has spent months poking at your money and your worth; now he comes home to your name. The wound isn't about what you earn, it’s about being you, and it aches more this month specifically because the August eclipses stripped off everything that was covering it, which brings us to the 26th, your headline:
A Full Moon in your sign, exactly conjunct Neptune. A Full Moon in your sign is always a personal culmination… this one is a personal culmination inside a fog machine. You will feel enormous, ethereal, magnificent and completely unreliable, possibly within the same twenty minutes. It's the harvest of the Aries New Moon from April 17th: whatever you started for yourself back then hits its emotional peak now, and it will be tangled up with home. Feel all of it, cry at something stupid(e.g. an advert, a dog, a song from 2011), just know that tonight your judgement is beautiful and probably wrong.
Relief arrives on the 27th, when Mars finally escapes Cancer for Leo. Your ruler goes from sulking in the emotional basement to walking into the ballroom like he holds the deed. Romance, creativity, pleasure, appetite, nerve… all the way through to November 25th. The strut is back.
Power date: September 27. Mars in your 5th house. Make something or make a move. Ideally both.
TAURUS RISING • SUN • MOON
— Silvia
Venus is your ruler and this month she is the plot, the casting and the lighting. On the 10th she enters Scorpio and rides straight into your 7th house of partnership, one of the most combustible placements in the entire calendar. This is not "someone nice texts back." This is walking into a room and feeling the temperature change. Attraction with consequences you can taste.
On the 19th Venus enters her pre-shadow, as on October 3rd she will station retrograde. Taurus, read this twice: your ruling planet is about to retrograde in your relationship sector. Whatever begins, deepens, or detonates in September gets a full forensic review in October and November. Venus won't station direct until November 13th in Libra, , which means the review eventually lands on the unromantic part: who texts first, who does the dishes, whether this thing survives an ordinary Tuesday. So enjoy September. Commit to nothing. Venus retrograde will tell you what's real and she will not be gentle about the delivery.
Meanwhile Mercury enters Libra on the 10th, so you'll try to manage the attraction. The Virgo New Moon on the 11th lands in your 5th house of romance, creativity, children, pleasure, and art, everything you make because you want to rather than because someone's paying.
This is the best day of the year to start making something as you have the words and the energy. Just FYI, this seed harvests at the lunar eclipse in Virgo on February 20th, 2027, the finale of the two-year saga. What you start on the 11th is what takes the final bow. Make it something you'd want your name on in ten years. The 15th, the private dream and the public power shake hands. Something you've only ever imagined could start to have a career shape. Don't announce it yet, just notice that it happened.
Then the 26th: a Full Moon in Aries in your 12th house, conjunct Neptune. Your most hidden sector, thoroughly fogged. Whatever you've been pretending not to want is currently screaming into a pillow. This is the harvest of an Aries New Moon back in April that you almost certainly didn't clock, because it happened in the one part of your chart you can't see. Old feelings will surface. You are not going mad, you’re being shown something. Write it down before it dissolves.
Power date: September 10. Venus enters your relationship sector. Answer the message, just don't propose.
GEMINI RISING • SUN • MOON
— The Review
Uranus stations retrograde on the 10th, in your sign, and stays that way until February 2027. Uranus in Gemini has spent the last year rewiring your identity, your face, your entire operating system, like new hair, new opinions, new personality, or possibly a new accent nobody has been brave enough to mention. Now it stops, turns around, and asks which of those were actually yours. Some of you will drop a version of yourself you adopted this year and realise it was a costume and exactly that’s the assignment. Mercury, your ruler, enters Libra and your 5th house on the 10th. Mercury in Libra is charming on purpose, brining excellent copywriting + excellent DMs (a dangerous month to be handed a keyboard.)
Venus enters Scorpio and your 6th house the same day, which means the crush is at work, at the gym, or attached to someone whose sheer competence you find genuinely erotic. Venus in the 6th makes service sexy. Be advised: as Venus retrogrades here in October, and a workplace entanglement under Venus retrograde is its own specific genre of chaos, usually with an HR subplot.
September 11's New Moon shines a light on your home, family, and foundations. You have the money-energy to make a domestic change. This new moon could turn the seeds you plant now into fated manifestation at the lunar eclipse on February 20th, 2027. This could be a move, a family shift, or a redefinition of home. Your friendships and your vision of the future go soft-focus at the Full Moon on the 26th. A group, a network, or a dream you share with others reaches an emotional peak, which you may not see clearly, yet. Enjoy this full moon, but don’t restructure your whole social life on the basis of one beautiful evening.
Then the 27th, Mars enters Leo, and the thing that's been sitting in your notes app for three months finally gets said, possibly at 1am… possibly in a group chat.
Power date: September 10. Uranus turns retrograde in your sign. Ask yourself which version is real.
CANCER RISING • SUN • MOON
— Career Peak, Emotionally Weaponised
You are ruled by the Moon, which makes every lunation personally addressed to you, and this month the Moon has business on your angles, which is where it counts. Mars is in your sign all month: energy, drive, visibility, everything running hot through your body. On the 1st, Mars hits Saturn sitting on top of your Midheaven. That's the opening scene, and it's a wall. You want to move up on your career, with your boss, on your public name, on your own hard-earned authority and the sky says not yet, and not like that. The friction is between who you are and what you're known for. Hold that thought, because it pays out at the end of the month.
Venus enters Scorpio, your passionate 5th house on the 10th. Romance is in the atmosphere and it is not casual. Venus in Scorpio in your pleasure house means you'd rather have one obsession than five options, which is, in fairness, the correct Cancer instinct. Venus starts retrograding here from October 3rd, so whoever arrives this month gets fully re-examined then. Feel everything. Don't build the shrine yet. Mercury enters Libra on the 10th and conversations about home, family and the past turn diplomatic, which for most families is a genuine plot twist.
The Virgo New Moon on the 11th is the message. Writing, speaking, pitching, siblings, short trips. You have the voice and the nerve on the same day, which is rare enough to be worth clearing the calendar for. And these seeds get fated by February 20th, 2027, so build the next six months around finishing whatever it is you actually want to say to the world: the book, the pitch, the channel, the thing you keep describing at parties. Write it properly.
Now the headline. On the 26th, the Full Moon in Aries lands in your 10th house, on your Midheaven, the very top of your chart. A Full Moon on an angle, for a Moon-ruled sign, is enormous. This is a career culmination: something you've been building since the Aries New Moon in April reaches its full, public, undeniable peak.
The achievement may arrive wrapped in fog. Neptune is exactly conjunct, so either the achievement is real and the terms are vague, or the recognition is real and nobody can tell you what it actually means yet. Saturn isn't far off, it's been sitting in your career sector all year, and this is where the discipline gets paid. What you built quietly, in the small hours, over months, becomes visible. Pluto is in it too, which means real money and real power are attached to this, not just applause. The ruler of this Full Moon is Mars, at 29° Cancer, in your sign, on your own body, at the final degree, about to change signs entirely. That detail is the whole story. You are the mechanism, not the luck, not the timing, not the person who put in a good word and the critical degree adds the urgency: now or never, and it means it.
Then, the very next day, Mars leaves your sign for Leo and your 2nd house of money. Read the sequence: career peaks on the 26th, and on the 27th your engine moves into your income house. The recognition converts to money, that's the plot.
Power date: September 26. Your Midheaven Full Moon. Show up. Take the credit. Read the contract twice, because Neptune is right there smiling.
LEO RISING • SUN • MOON
— Mars Comes Home
August eclipsed your entire identity. September asks the follow-up question: and what does the new one charge? Venus enters Scorpio on the 10th and descends into your home sector, deep, private, a little secretive, and prone to dredging up something ancestral, like family patterns around love and money. What you learned about worth before you could spell it. Venus retrogrades here in October, so consider this conversation opened rather than had.
The Virgo New Moon on the 11th shines a light on your of money, values, and self-worth. You've just had a total solar eclipse in your sign take your entire persona, and now the sky would like a price on the new one. What is the reinvented you actually worth? It matters more than usual, because this New Moon harvests at the lunar eclipse on February 20th, 2027, the grand finale. The rate you set now is the rate you're living on when the credits roll. Do not undercharge the new self. That was the whole lesson of August and you are not repeating a year. The 15th brings a vision of you somewhere else entirely, standing next to someone with real power. Travel, teaching, publishing, the horizon opening up. Or maybe it's just a person. Sometimes it's just a person.
The 26th Full Moon lights up a journey or a course, or a dream you wished on about six months ago quietly arriving without ceremony. Keep a journal. Dreams, goals, gratitude, whatever you'll actually maintain past week two. You'll want to remember how this one started.
And then the fire. On the 27th Mars enters Leo and stays until November 25th. Your ruler is the Sun, but Mars is the engine, and after a month of it hiding out in Cancer making you defensive and moody and weird about texts, you get the swagger back. Two and a half months of physical confidence, drive, and a genuine willingness to be looked at. Add Jupiter, still in your sign, and it's the strongest cocktail of your year. You were never the supporting role. Please stop auditioning for one.
Power date: September 27. Mars enters Leo. Enter, on a motorbike, unbothered. (Ideally to music.)
VIRGO RISING • SUN • MOON
— The Seed That Goes In The Finale
This is the one of the most important months of your year and I need you to actually read this one. Mercury your ruler will start off in your sign this month, putting you into your groove and routine and by the 10th it enters Libra, meaning your mind turns to value: what you're paid, what you're worth, and ultimately what you'll accept. This is one of the most important months of your year, and I need you to actually read it rather than skim it while doing three other things. Mercury, your ruler, starts the month in your sign: you in your groove, systems humming, calendar colour-coded and correct. By the 10th Mercury enters Libra and your mind turns to value: what you're paid, what you're worth, and the real question underneath both, which is what you'll accept.
When Venus enters Scorpio on the 10th your words get seductive. Your DMs get dangerous. Something you say this month could hit harder than you meant it to. September 11 there is a gorgeous New Moon in Virgo, your sign. This is your annual reset, and it's a strong one: you have the plan, the energy and the community behind it, all at once, a combination that essentially never shows up together. What makes this one enormous is what it's attached to. This New Moon's corresponding Full Moon, on February 20th next year, is a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, the grand finale of the entire Virgo/Pisces eclipse saga that has been quietly dismantling you since September 2024. The version of you that begins on September 11th is the version that takes the final bow. The perfectionism, the self-erasure, the service-as-avoidance, the deep conviction that you have to earn a place you were already invited to, all of it resolves there. And this New Moon even tells you how: build a plan that is part genius and part fantasy, with real power and real innovation in it. Not a tidier version of the plan you already have.
The Moon keeps waxing to a Full Moon on the 26th, and someone's finances or someone's feelings become impossible to ignore. Shared money, intimacy, debt, merging, all is at an emotional peak. Do not let a beautiful sentence talk you out of a good plan.
Power date: September 11. Start the real one. It's going in the last act.
LIBRA RISING • SUN • MOON
— Your Season
Venus, the charm planet is your planetary ruler, and she is about to do something significant. On the 10th she enters Scorpio, your sector of money, values and self-worth. Desire and resources could get tangled. Then, on the 19th she enters her pre-shadow and on October 3rd Venus stations retrograde in the late degrees of Scorpio. On October 17th she slips back into your sign and she doesn't station direct until November 13th. Once retrograde hits Venus in your sign, the universe brings you a once-in-eighteen-months event and it is entirely about you: your face, your value, your relationships, and of course, your worth. All of autumn is a full re-examination of what you're worth and who you're worth it to, which makes September the last month before the review. Everything you decide about money, self-worth, and desire from here is a first draft.
Mercury enters your sign on the 10th, making you even more persuasive, which was already borderline a public safety issue. The Virgo New Moon on the 11th lands in your 12th house, the backstage or so called subconscious. This lunation can bring a quiet reset that no one sees and it seeds the potent final Virgo lunar eclipse in February 2027: whatever you release in private now completes in private then. Rest can also be a strategy. Then on the 22nd your season begins when the Sun enters your sign. This is your annual reset, + your face on the poster. Then look at the 26th, because it's loaded. The Sun will be in your sign opposite Neptune + the Sun corresponding positively with Pluto, and a Full Moon in Aries landing on your partnership angle, exactly conjunct Neptune, and Saturn also not being too far off.
A Full Moon on your Descendant can bring a partnership culmination and it is drenched in Neptune. Someone may look like the answer and you are seeing them through a filter so beautiful it should be illegal. This is the harvest of the April 17th Aries New Moon: something in a relationship that began then reaches its peak now. It's real and it's fogged, and those two things are both true.
Check again in November, when Venus stations direct in your sign. Will you still like them and or will you'll just be able to see them with no filter?
Power date: September 22. Your season. Walk in like you mean it and don't sign the prenup on the 26th.
SCORPIO RISING • SUN • MOON
— Venus Comes Home
Venus enters your sign on the 10th and stays. Magnetism switched on, no dimmer, no apology. Everyone in the room feels it and nobody can quite explain why. This is your annual beauty-and-desire peak, and you will not be modest about it, nor should you be. Except this isn't a normal Venus transit. Venus enters her pre-shadow on the 19th and stations retrograde in your sign on October 3rd, bringing a full re-examination of your face, your desirability, your relationships and your worth, running the whole autumn show. Venus doesn't station direct until November 13th. So, September is the arrival and October is the reckoning.
Early in the month the adventure you want versus the work you owe could bring some irritation, which is non-negotiable. Then on the 27th Mars enters Leo and your 10th house of career until November 25th: two months of ambition, drive and public visibility with your ruler at the very top of your chart. Use your power to get ahead. The deep transformation of your foundations meets a dream about how you actually want to live day to day. Home and health start to have real power behind them. The Virgo New Moon on the 11th lands in your 11th house (11:11): highlighting new beginnings in networks, community, the collective —> the future. It seeds the potent and final February 2027 Virgo lunar eclipse, so the the group you join now, the vision you share, or the collaborator you find is what completes at the finale next year. So choose your people like it matters.
Your body will say something around the Full Moon on the 26th. Listen to it, but do not diagnose yourself at 2am with Neptune on the case, because at 2am everything is vaguer and significantly worse than it turns out to be at 10. Then Mercury enters your sign on the 30th and your mind joins your body in the dark. Your words will acquire a blade.
Power date: September 10. Venus in your sign. Be seen + be dangerous about it.
SAGITTARIUS RISING • SUN • MOON
— Book the Ticket
Jupiter, your ruler, is in Leo and your 9th house of travel, philosophy, publishing, teaching, basically the big map. It's been there since June expanding your entire worldview, and it is the best-placed planet you've had in years. Enjoy it properly as Jupiter won't come back around for a while once he leaves.
Venus enters Scorpio and your 12th house of the subconscious on the 10th. A crush could be secret and, let's be honest, you prefer it that way. A secret desire has no logistics, no compromise, no scheduling conflict and no risk of being disappointing over dinner. Venus retrogrades here in October, so the hidden thing gets excavated whether you cooperate or not. When Mercury enters Libra on the 10th, a friend could say something offhand that turns out to be the single most useful sentence of your month. The Virgo New Moon on the 11th lands in the most public part of your chart, so the ambition has real fuel and other people's real money behind it. This particular New Moon seeds the final Virgo lunar eclipse on February 20th, 2027. The career move you make on September 11th is what culminates at the ending of the story. This is not a small month, make sure to aim embarrassingly high.
Something you started making, or someone you started loving, in the spring hits its crescendo on the 26th. A Full Moon is bringing a peak in romance, art and pleasure. Think back 6 months as this is the harvest of the April Aries New Moon. It’s beautiful, but it could also not be entirely real. Enjoy it anyway; you always do. Then the 27th, Mars enters Leo and joins your boo, Jupiter until November 25th, which means Mars and Jupiter are together in your travel-and-meaning house. The adventure stops being theoretical. The book stops being an idea. The visa stops being a browser tab you've had open since May, so book the ticket!
Power date: September 27: Mars joins Jupiter in your 9th. Go.
CAPRICORN RISING • SUN • MOON
— The Long Game
Saturn has been rebuilding you from the ground up, and not necessarily gently. Kicking off the month of September, Saturn clashes with Mars in your partnership sector: someone else may want something, and your foundations could say no.
Venus enters your friendship sector on the 10th. Venus in Scorpio in the friendship house does not do casual. And btw, Venus will retrograde here in October, so if someone crosses the line, this autumn will make you look at it properly. Venus retrograding in your social sector can also bring many heartwarming friendship reunions, people coming back around, old collaborators resurfacing, a group quietly re-forming, so it's not all just testing the waters.
The Virgo New Moon on the 11th lands in your sector of travel, study, publishing and belief, the bigger map, and maybe with a partner somewhere in the plan. And it seeds the potent Virgo lunar eclipse in the same place in February 2027. The course, the visa, the book, the belief: planted now, graduating at the finale. So enrol properly, not the free trial. On the 15th, Neptune and Pluto shake hands across your foundations and your money. The dream of home meets the power to actually pay for it. Property, family finances, and a foundation with something real underneath it for once is very possible now. On the 17th, Chiron re-enters Aries and joins Saturn at the base of your chart. The wound could come home, literally. The house you grew up in or the thing nobody in your family has ever said out loud could ache a little before being ready to be healed.
And the 26th is your headline: a Full Moon on your IC, the very bottom of your chart, the angle nobody else can see, conjunct Neptune, conjunct Saturn, your own ruler, in a strong exchange with Pluto. A Full Moon on the IC conjunct your own ruler is a foundational culmination. Home, family, the past, where you're from and what it did to you. Something that started at the April 17th Aries New Moon reaches its peak here. And with Neptune in it, the story you've been telling yourself about your family has a very soft filter on it, the flattering version or the tragic one, depending on which you find more useful. Look again without the filter. There's real power waiting on the other side of seeing it clearly.
Power date: September 26. The IC Full Moon. Go home, actually or metaphorically, and look properly.
AQUARIUS RISING • SUN • MOON
— The Dream Gets Real
Uranus is your ruler and it stations retrograde in Gemini on the 10th, in your 5th house, until February 8th, 2027. Creativity, romance, pleasure, children, and self-expression will all be under review. The creative project you started a while ago could get a rewrite. A romance you thought was radically innovative gets asked a harder question:is it actually free, or is it just unusual? Let the review happen. Pluto is still going strong in your sign and has been rebuilding you from the atoms up for years.
On the 15th, Neptune exchanges positive beams with Pluto in your sign, and the idea shakes hands with the power. Whatever you imagine now can actually get built. This is a genuinely potent day for you: your vision of yourself acquires real weight, as opposed to the usual arrangement, where your vision of yourself acquires a very good paragraph. Venus enters Scorpio and your 10th house on the 10th. Your desire is public, or at minimum professional. Venus in Scorpio at the top of your chart is thrilling and a liability. Venus will retrograde here in October, which means a professional entanglement could get a public review. The Virgo New Moon on the 11th lands in your 8th house of shared money, debt, intimacy, other people's resources, pretty much the deep end. This lunation seeds the final Virgo lunar eclipse in February 2027. The loan, the investment, the merge, the therapy, if you finally say the thing out loud in the dark and plant it now, it could be resolved at the finale next year.
At the 26th Full Moon conjunct Neptune, words, messages and ideas can reach a foggy peak. Whatever you write on the 26th will sound significantly better on the 26th than it does on the 28th. Say less and mean more. Also, read it back before you send it.
Power date: September 15. Neptune sextile Pluto. The dream gets real. Build it.
PISCES RISING • SUN • MOON
— After the Eclipse
You just had a lunar eclipse in your sign. You probably didn't have time to read the August horoscope and even if you did, you're not the person who read it. Something came off you last month, and it hasn't grown back the same way. Neptune, your ruler, is in Aries and your 2nd house of money, worth and value, and it is busy. Around the 15th, the hidden becomes profitable. Genuinely: a dream turning into income, the private thing becoming the paid thing, the hobby that suddenly has a rate attached. And on the 26th the Full Moon lands exactly on it: the wish, stamped and approved. Jupiter, your co-ruler, is in Leo and your 6th house of work, health and daily life, quietly making you unreasonably effective at practical things all year. Also, the element of surprise is doing a lot of work for you.
Venus enters Scorpio and your 9th house on the 10th. You want someone from somewhere else. A different city, a different language, a different life entirely. This isn't necessarily escapism, this is the appetite doing its job. And after two years of Virgo/Pisces eclipses teaching you that fantasy is not a substitute for showing up, the difference genuinely matters. Mercury enters Libra and conversations about money, intimacy and what's shared can turn diplomatic. Something delicate gets said, and said well. The Virgo New Moon on the 11th lands in your partnership sector. Romance and creativity are the fuel. Here's what makes it enormous: This New Moon's harvest is the lunar eclipse in Virgo, your partner sector, on February 20th, 2027—the grand finale of the eclipse saga that has been rebuilding you since September 2024. Two years of eclipses working on your identity, your dissolution, your reconstruction, and the last act happens in your partnership house, which means the whole story ends with who you're standing next to. Whatever you begin with someone this month, you finish at the finale. Choose the person you'd want in frame when the credits roll.
The 26th Full Moon in Aries lands in your 2nd house, kissing Neptune, your personal planet. Money, worth, value and what you'll accept, are all peaking in a beautiful fog. This is the harvest of the April 17th Aries New Moon. Know your price and say it out loud. With Neptune conjunct, the temptation is to be vague or too generous and then feel terrible about it for four months. The fog is not your friend here. Name the number.
Power date: September 11. The partnership seed. Plant it with someone who'd survive the finale.
