Overview for this Month: Aquarius (All)
September 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:
September can be a time of pouring more energy and passion into your pursuits, dear Aquarius. You're in a great position to look within for answers. You have the will to handle tricky intimacy, ownership, or debt problems.
The first few days of the month open your eyes to the need to make changes. The Full Moon early on the 2nd can be about a financial matter coming to full bloom, which sets you on a new, fresh path. There may be frustrations or heightened awareness about a business, money, or respect matter that requires changes. Aim to rid yourself of burdens or excess for best results now. There can also be pronounced differences in values, ideally leading to new insights and fine-tuning that ultimately improves matters.
Watch for impulsiveness in your communications. Mars in your communications sector can stir up tension on its own, but it's also turning retrograde this month and forming some challenging aspects. You may be a little too quick to speak about something that needs time to develop or understand.
Fortunately, Venus moves into your partnership sector on the 6th, and you're in excellent shape for attracting helpful or happy people into your life. It's a little easier than usual to find yourself in good company, which also applies to virtual connections. Increased cooperation is likely with a key person or partner. Someone's faith in you can brighten your life. You can feel more hopeful about friendships, partnerships, and your future in general. Others extend more kindnesses to you with this transit.
Mercury moves into harmony with your sign around the same time, leading to interesting developments in your life. There can be an emphasis on pulling yourself out of your usual routines and enjoying some mental refreshment. You'll have the courage or the motivation to change things up.
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th, and this transit occurs in your communications sector. Slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations are likely in your studies, daily affairs, communication, or transportation. There can be weighty issues and delays to manage. You may reach a point where a project or course of study feels uninspiring. Challenges with self-expression, pushing/selling your ideas, or with neighbors and siblings may occur during this cycle. Social interactions can be a little strained if you feel the need to hold back or if communications lack some spontaneity. There can be frustration with daily routines or delays or breakdowns. It's time to rethink, revise, and reorganize your plans. You'll do best with making important edits of work already in progress.
You might often find yourself strongly attracted to what's beneath the surface or hidden from sight this month, and you can delight in trying to solve a mystery, do some research, or throw yourself into absorbing pursuits. You might decide to share a burden, secret, or problem. Some form of satisfying release may arrive for issues that have been weighing heavily on you. It's a time to see the hidden layers or elements of a situation, and it's to your advantage. It may not be an ideal time for important financial transactions, especially lending. Try not to press for answers and resolve to pay more attention to your spiritual needs while protecting your material resources around the 11th. Watch, too, for hanging onto a false, idealized image of a person, project, or relationship since it puts too much pressure on a connection and leaves you vulnerable.
Jupiter and Saturn both turn direct this month, on the 12th and 29th, respectively. These moves serve to remind us that you're getting closer to hosting both planets in your sign, beginning in December. They signal that important work is ahead as you prepare. For now, you're clearing the decks, and you begin to do so with a stronger sense of purpose. The months ahead are golden for the culmination of projects and introspection as you prepare for a more visible and outgoing period ahead. You'll feel more equipped to put negative habits and attitudes behind you. Gradually, you're bound to feel stronger and more capable, especially if you've been procrastinating on a matter.
Taking charge and tapping into your inner courage makes sense and comes more naturally in September. It's a time to see self-destructive patterns or tired, old habits in your relationships that could use some renovation.
The New Moon on the 17th can point to a fresh start with finances or resources that sets you on a new path. There can be frustrations or heightened awareness about a business, money, or respect matter that requires changes.
The Sun moves into harmony with yours from the 22nd forward when making connections, exchanging ideas, and learning can be in stronger focus.
Mind you, challenges with communications, education, or transportation can be off and on in the last week of the month, but you also get the chance to iron things out and improve them. Delays or technical problems can surface, and disagreements can be notable. Focusing too much on differences in outlook or opinion can be a struggle at this time. It may be best to avoid jumping to express yourself if you're already tense. You could be excited or enthusiastic about a renewed project at this time, however. Looking to the past for inspiration can be fruitful.

Aquarius (Born January 21 to 30) and Aquarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Aquarius:
September 2020 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 21st:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar eighth house. Your attention turns inward, as well as to close personal relationships on a deeper level. Personal transformations, personal power, and intimate matters fulfill you most during this cycle. There may be a strong focus on other's money, such as the resources of a partner, inheritance, banking and loans, or taxes.
You are more intense in your mood and disposition, and perhaps even secretive, at this time of year. You are more in touch with the deeper and even primal elements of your own personality, and more able to see these things in others. This can be a determined and personally powerful time of year if you apply the energy of this transit constructively.
From September 22nd forward:
This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now.
A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with managing everyday affairs and important details.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 5th:
Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.
From September 6th forward:
Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 5th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar eighth house. The ability to analyze and rationalize some of the deeper elements inside yourself and in your intimate life now can benefit you. This is also a good time for sorting out finances, particularly money shared or coming from other sources other than your own personal income.
You might particularly enjoy discussing topics that you typically don't verbalize with someone special during this cycle. Anything taboo, mysterious, or puzzling can be especially fascinating for you just now. You have little interest in small talk. You are more aware of subtleties and nuances during this cycle, and you can use this increased insightfulness to improve your life.
From September 6-26:
Mercury transits your solar ninth house. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind turns to bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture.
You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now.
From September 27th forward:
Mercury transits your solar tenth house. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, and you are more accountable than usual for what (and how) you communicate. Your ideas may come into public view now.
Use the power of words to influence authority figures. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined to chat about frivolous matters now.
You tend to think about your position or standing on a professional level more frequently during this cycle. You are likely doing some multi-tasking regarding career and business matters. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of communication, siblings, neighbors, acquaintances, and transportation. Communication or transportation might take a hit somehow, making it harder to get from point A to point B, for example, or involving missed meetings, delays and red tape, challenges with studies, or mechanical breakdowns. There can be frustration with self-expression or impatience with social niceties.
Occurring in the sector that Mars rules, all of these themes are magnified. See Mars Retrograde for more details.
Note that Mars sticks around this area of your solar chart for much longer than usual–until January 6th, 2021, but is only retrograde here until November 13th.

Aquarius (Born January 31 to February 9) AND Aquarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Aquarius:
September 2020 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun energizes your sector of transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others' money and resources, addictions, and taxes. As a result, this is not the most gregarious of months for you. You take a step back, focus on intimacy with a partner, or simply retreat a little from the hectic pace of life. This is an excellent time to create a budget or financial plan, or to rid yourself of bad habits that undermine your sense of personal power and self-mastery.
All that is deeply personal comes into focus now. Intimate matters are especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic "junk" or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life's secrets.
This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year's events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more practical level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now more than usual.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 14th:
Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines.

Aquarius (Born February 10-19) and Aquarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Aquarius:
September 2020 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 11th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar seventh house--your partnership sector. This can be a time of much learning through the mirror of close relationships. It's not the time to push your agenda or personal plans forward; rather, it's a cycle in which you are at your best when you recognize the need to form alliances, to give back to a special someone, and to compromise in order to find some balance in your life.
It's a strong period for putting yourself into another person's shoes and to better understand him/her. You may be meeting with someone strong and assertive by nature now, or a partner is more assertive and needy of attention. There may be some competitive feelings between you and a significant other now. Focus is on reconciliation, forming or cementing bonds, diplomacy, consultation, one-on-one interactions, and negotiations. You may feel a little drained physically now, temporarily.
From September 12th forward:

There can also be pronounced differences in values, ideally leading to new insights and fine-tuning that ultimately improves matters.
Watch for impulsiveness in your communications. Mars in your communications sector can stir up tension on its own, but it's also turning retrograde this month and forming some challenging aspects. You may be a little too quick to speak about something that needs time to develop or understand.
Fortunately, Venus moves into your partnership sector on the 6th, and you're in excellent shape for attracting helpful or happy people into your life. It's a little easier than usual to find yourself in good company, which also applies to virtual connections. Increased cooperation is likely with a key person or partner. Someone's faith in you can brighten your life. You can feel more hopeful about friendships, partnerships, and your future in general. Others extend more kindnesses to you with this transit.
Mercury moves into harmony with your sign around the same time, leading to interesting developments in your life. There can be an emphasis on pulling yourself out of your usual routines and enjoying some mental refreshment. You'll have the courage or the motivation to change things up.
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th, and this transit occurs in your communications sector. Slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations are likely in your studies, daily affairs, communication, or transportation. There can be weighty issues and delays to manage. You may reach a point where a project or course of study feels uninspiring. Challenges with self-expression, pushing/selling your ideas, or with neighbors and siblings may occur during this cycle. Social interactions can be a little strained if you feel the need to hold back or if communications lack some spontaneity. There can be frustration with daily routines or delays or breakdowns. It's time to rethink, revise, and reorganize your plans. You'll do best with making important edits of work already in progress.
You might often find yourself strongly attracted to what's beneath the surface or hidden from sight this month, and you can delight in trying to solve a mystery, do some research, or throw yourself into absorbing pursuits. You might decide to share a burden, secret, or problem. Some form of satisfying release may arrive for issues that have been weighing heavily on you. It's a time to see the hidden layers or elements of a situation, and it's to your advantage. It may not be an ideal time for important financial transactions, especially lending. Try not to press for answers and resolve to pay more attention to your spiritual needs while protecting your material resources around the 11th. Watch, too, for hanging onto a false, idealized image of a person, project, or relationship since it puts too much pressure on a connection and leaves you vulnerable.
Jupiter and Saturn both turn direct this month, on the 12th and 29th, respectively. These moves serve to remind us that you're getting closer to hosting both planets in your sign, beginning in December. They signal that important work is ahead as you prepare. For now, you're clearing the decks, and you begin to do so with a stronger sense of purpose. The months ahead are golden for the culmination of projects and introspection as you prepare for a more visible and outgoing period ahead. You'll feel more equipped to put negative habits and attitudes behind you. Gradually, you're bound to feel stronger and more capable, especially if you've been procrastinating on a matter.
Taking charge and tapping into your inner courage makes sense and comes more naturally in September. It's a time to see self-destructive patterns or tired, old habits in your relationships that could use some renovation.
The New Moon on the 17th can point to a fresh start with finances or resources that sets you on a new path. There can be frustrations or heightened awareness about a business, money, or respect matter that requires changes.
The Sun moves into harmony with yours from the 22nd forward when making connections, exchanging ideas, and learning can be in stronger focus.
Mind you, challenges with communications, education, or transportation can be off and on in the last week of the month, but you also get the chance to iron things out and improve them. Delays or technical problems can surface, and disagreements can be notable. Focusing too much on differences in outlook or opinion can be a struggle at this time. It may be best to avoid jumping to express yourself if you're already tense. You could be excited or enthusiastic about a renewed project at this time, however. Looking to the past for inspiration can be fruitful.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the seventh house of your solar chart from July 22 to August 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both July and August’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
