Sunday, SEPTEMBER 22

The Sun-Pluto trine perfects early today, marking a period of significant personal growth and character-building activities. We are empowered with the belief that we can navigate our circumstances to our advantage.

As the Moon leaves Taurus and enters Gemini at 6:25 AM EDT, our curiosity is sparked, leading us towards new experiences.

Both the Sun and Venus change signs today, with the Sun moving into Libra and Venus leaving Libra and moving on to Scorpio.

The Sun will transit Libra until October 22nd, and in the month ahead, we focus on balancing our personal environments and relationships. It’s a time for considering alternatives and others’ needs, agendas, and desires. Meeting people halfway, compromising, and negotiating come under the rule of Libra.

Decision-making can be more challenging while the Sun is in Libra–we weigh both sides of any situation, and sometimes this process goes on too long! In Libra, the Sun doesn’t want to rock the boat or rub people the wrong way. Tactfulness, style, tolerance, and sociability are some of the themes. On the shadow side, Libra can be indecisive, passive-aggressive, or superficial when challenged.

Venus in Scorpio from today until October 17th is a highly emotional and passionate position for Venus. This period promises intense and engaging experiences, as we seek projects, pleasures, and relationships that absorb or consume us.

While the fear of vulnerability or power struggles may heighten, we are adept at handling money and resources during this cycle. We are drawn to absorbing, deeply engaging, dramatic pleasures, activities, projects, and art, making this a time of interesting and intense experiences. Profound, disturbing, mysterious, or unusual things can be more appealing now.

Before Venus leaves Libra tonight, it squares Pluto and forms a minor square with Saturn, bringing possible power struggles. We may recognize the need for change but feel blocked by others or by circumstances, or we might attempt to stubbornly hold on to what has worked for us in the past. Our personal plans and ambitions can feel at odds, causing some tension. There can be obstacles to clear as we wrestle with our fears.

These transits accentuate or stimulate our insecurities, bringing suspicions and jealousies to the surface. Jealous and possessive feelings are directly proportional to fear of losing something or someone. We can be worried about betrayal or being in the dark about a matter. Social interactions may be intense or could provoke intense feelings. It can be exceedingly easy to trigger sensitive points, but what works us up can be very revealing to those on a self-discovery journey.

The Moon is void from 6:14 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to the Sun), until the Moon enters Gemini at 6:25 AM EDT.
