Overview for this Month: Leo (All)
September 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:
September promises a comforting and productive journey for you, dear Leo. As you focus on building and producing, the themes of finances, security, and communications will be your guiding stars. You have a remarkable ability to use your talents more resourcefully and to your advantage this month. While you enjoy a steadier pace, you're also connected and interactive.
Uranus turns retrograde for a cycle that lasts five months, inspiring you to examine needs related to your long-term goals, career, or reputation. You've been reshaping your reputation and carving out a unique identity, mainly through your status or profession. Now, it's time to analyze, plan, and reassess. Easing back or detaching from things can help you see your life-path goals and ambitions in a new light.
Pluto moves back into your work and health sector for the final leg of its transit, pointing to further renovating your practical affairs, daily routines, or health matters. Pluto will remain in this area of your solar chart until November 19th, after which it leaves permanently. It's a great time to assess where you've grown and crystallize the lessons of this transit. Problems with over-attention to the details of your life might now find some resolve.
The New Moon on the 2nd occurs in the sector of your solar chart that rules your earning power, comfort, and security. It can signal the need for new approaches to your finances, income, personal resources, valuables, and self-worth. You're likely to feel encouraged, inspired, and determined to make positive changes. A take-charge attitude can emerge from a feeling of lack, a dream, or sudden fear that you're not on top of things–even from an event that reminds you of who or what you value most. Sometimes, feeling temporarily insecure about your situation is enough to motivate you to strengthen your position. While money management can be in focus with this lunation, it's also a fantastic time to enjoy earthy and grounding activities.
Independent or competitive activities are highly favored this month and less so cooperative ones. Transits tend to stir your desire to improve business affairs, material concerns, and finances. You're ready to make a fresh start when it comes to making your life more secure and taking better care of your assets.
You're taking care of business and taking more pride in your things or your ability to earn or improve your life. You could gain some appreciation or admiration for your talents now. You also more fully enjoy your personal interests, learning, and sharing. There's more charm and warmth in your presentation. Sharing ideas and activities can lead to something very special and quite enterprising. You can feel a sense of self-mastery through specialized learning and skills development, fostering a feeling of competence.
Focus on detoxifying and cleansing from the 4th forward with Mars visiting your privacy sector. There can be some indecision during this cycle, but it's necessary now as it's a time for reviewing plans and desires. This transit does keep you on a fence in some areas as you consider all your options. It can also bring animation and liveliness to your private world. Your personal influence runs high, and although life is not always exciting this month, chances to improve your feelings of security are strong.
The Lunar Eclipse on the 17th is powerful for releasing something related to an intimate or financial matter. A debt owed or coming through to you can require attention, or an event that positions you to defend and honor your worth and value might emerge now. This lunation awakens you to matters surrounding sharing, give and take, power dynamics, ownership, intimacy, and finances. There can be epiphanies about financial and emotional support or dependencies.
Certainly, you may be dealing with inflated feelings about a person, relationship, or situation around the time of this eclipse. These topics are sure to be big ones for you until 2027, and epiphanies or discontent you experience now can get the ball rolling toward making meaningful changes along these lines.
Doing things patiently and gradually is your best bet. While last month was for new ideas, September is for fleshing out the practical details. It's a generally good time for discovering ways to boost your feelings of comfort or security. It's also solid for enterprising ideas. You want to rely on yourself.
The Sun heads into your communications sector on the 22nd, and Mercury follows suit on the 26th. Because your interests and the demands on you can be very diverse at this time, it can be challenging to focus, but branching out can serve you exceptionally well now. It's a great time to follow your curiosity and collect and share information.
Venus moves into your sector of heart and home on the 22nd, and your love of home, familiarity, comfort, and security increases. It's an excellent time to get extra rest, settle in, and learn about yourself and your emotional needs. Making peace at home or with family can figure strongly.
As such, you end the month rather well-rounded, even though you can remain somewhat retiring. It's a mentally busy time, but finding the moments to center yourself is also important.

Leo (Born July 23 to August 2)
AND Leo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Leo:
September 2024 Leo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 22nd:
The Sun continues to transit your solar second house. This is the most "financial" period of the year for you. You might have a more materialistic view of life for the time being, or you have an increased interest in your own possessions, during this cycle. You are more attracted to objects and possessions that give you a sense of comfort, status, or luxury now.
You probably should be on the lookout for a tendency to create your own financial stress due to extravagant spending habits. At this point in the year, you are unlikely to take many risks, however, and you can be quite resistant to change. This is a time when "comfort zones" are more important to you than usual--you value the familiar.
From September 22nd forward:
The Sun is illuminating your communications sector now, suggesting "busy-ness" and movement. You are exploring and searching, making connections, and paying more attention to your immediate environment. Social interaction is in emphasis during this period, and is, for the most part, light-hearted.
Give other people a little extra time and attention, notice their efforts on your behalf, and strengthen your connections. You are more curious and alert than usual, and you could be quite busy with errands, paperwork, phone calls, and light socializing. Much energy is expended in understanding and adapting to your immediate environment. Siblings, neighbors, close relatives, friends, and co-workers may play a more important role than usual in your life during this cycle.
You are more interested in exploring your own neighborhood than you are of something entirely new. This is not a time of big adventure-seeking! Rather, it's a time of little adventures close to home.
Neither is this a time when you are especially focused. In fact, you could have a finger in many pies right now. You are especially resourceful, and you could find yourself enjoying (or seeking) attention for your intellectual know-how. The ability to express and communicate your ideas is extremely important to you at this time. You are eager to investigate new things, whether scientific or technical.
Eclipses
A Lunar Eclipse occurs on September 17th:
A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.
This Lunar Eclipse stimulates your solar eighth house. Surprises surrounding intimate matters, shared finances and resources, or financial support may be in store. Something that has been "in hiding" or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. This could manifest as, for example, the need to make a financial settlement or large payment, the paying off of a loan, the loss of financial support, a change in your spouse's status (or ex-spouse's status if child support or alimony is given), a circumstance that calls for you to support someone, and other such possibilities. Do your best to avoid letting emotions overrule good judgment when it comes to spending or financial matters.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 22nd:
Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style.
During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual.
Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. Good companionship is as equally important as romance to you during this cycle.
You prefer an intellectual, communicative, and witty partner just now, and your powers of attraction increase through expressing these types of qualities. You are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport, and you are especially good at mediating conflicts now. If you were to begin a romance or friendship during this cycle, it would likely be quite light-hearted.
From September 23rd forward:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 8th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar first house. During this cycle, you are more communicative than usual. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that conversations are at their best right now, simply because you are more interested in expressing yourself than listening! You are especially alert and a little cerebral now. You have a receptive audience for your ideas.
From September 9th to 26th:
With Mercury in your solar second house, this is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances during this period. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas.
Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.
From September 26th forward:
Mercury is right at home in the third house and offers a natural curiosity, facility with words, and the ability to multi-task successfully. More time spent on the phone, writing emails, in the car making short frequent trips, chatting, running errands, communicating with neighbors and siblings, visiting friends and relatives, and doing paperwork is likely now. There can also be a tendency to fuss over insignificant matters now, however.
Also, "information overload" is also a possibility. This may be a busy time with neighbors, classmates, siblings, and community affairs. Your interests are especially varied now and perhaps scattered. It's an ideal time to pick up information from your environment and the people in it, as your tendency is toward a certain level of intellectual detachment just now. Your mind is often distracted, particularly when circumstances call for you to stick to the routine, so this is not the best transit for focusing on one task or project.
Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, and the like. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects. As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 4th:
Mars continues to activate your solar eleventh house. You take a more direct approach to realizing your dreams now, rather than simply hoping and wishing.
You might find that you have more energy and enthusiasm for spending time with others, but arguments now may be with or on behalf of friends. You can be especially effective at encouraging others now, as well as at leading or organizing a group.
From September 4th forward:
With Mars moving through your solar twelfth house, this is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you--and this is not necessarily a bad thing!
It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural--you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself.
Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Leo (Born August 3 to 12)
AND Leo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Leo:
September 2024 Leo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you at the moment, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. What you have and what you don't have come into focus--what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value.
This is the time of year when personal finances and possessions receive maximum attention. Pour your energy into your work and your finances, and you might just be able to take your ideas to the bank.
Extravagance with your pocketbook is something you may want to look out for, however. If you find yourself itching to make unnecessary purchases, know that at the root of this urge is the desire to pamper and comfort yourself. Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good.
This is not the most eventful time of year for you. You are more inclined to dig in your heels and hang on to what makes you feel most secure than to take big risks.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 6th:
Venus continues to grace your solar second house during this period. You might receive gifts or bonuses now, or you find much comfort in what you already own and have. You may be a little extravagant with money for the time being, as your desire for luxury and comfort items is increased now, and this is something to watch for. When it comes to love, you value those who make you feel comfortable and secure.
From September 6th forward:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit.

Leo (Born August 13 to 22)
AND Leo Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Leo:
September 2024 Leo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 12th:
The Sun continues to move through your solar first house. You experience a renewal of energy and vitality now, and it's a strong time for increased personal confidence. The emphasis is on self-expression, what kind of impression you make on others, and beginning new personal projects.
You are a little more self-centered than usual, and this is quite natural and healthy as long as you don't take it too far. You are more decisive and forward-looking now, and you put more faith in your own abilities. Physically, you are likely feeling strong. This is an excellent cycle for making personal changes in your manner or appearance, and for any self-improvement endeavors. Personal projects that you begin now are likely to blossom nine months down the road.
From September 12th forward:
The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues.

When it comes to love, you value those who make you feel comfortable and secure.
From September 15th forward:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 20th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar first house. During this cycle, you are more communicative than usual. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that conversations are at their best right now, simply because you are more interested in expressing yourself than listening! You are especially alert and a little cerebral now. You have a receptive audience for your ideas.
From September 20th forward:
With Mercury in your solar second house, this is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances during this period. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas.
Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to activate your solar eleventh house. You take a more direct approach to realizing your dreams now, rather than simply hoping and wishing.
You might find that you have more energy and enthusiasm for spending time with others, but arguments now may be with or on behalf of friends. You can be especially effective at encouraging others now, as well as at leading or organizing a group.
Overview Horoscope:
September 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:
September promises a comforting and productive journey for you, dear Leo. As you focus on building and producing, the themes of finances, security, and communications will be your guiding stars. You have a remarkable ability to use your talents more resourcefully and to your advantage this month. While you enjoy a steadier pace, you're also connected and interactive.
Uranus turns retrograde for a cycle that lasts five months, inspiring you to examine needs related to your long-term goals, career, or reputation. You've been reshaping your reputation and carving out a unique identity, mainly through your status or profession. Now, it's time to analyze, plan, and reassess. Easing back or detaching from things can help you see your life-path goals and ambitions in a new light.
Pluto moves back into your work and health sector for the final leg of its transit, pointing to further renovating your practical affairs, daily routines, or health matters. Pluto will remain in this area of your solar chart until November 19th, after which it leaves permanently. It's a great time to assess where you've grown and crystallize the lessons of this transit. Problems with over-attention to the details of your life might now find some resolve.
The New Moon on the 2nd occurs in the sector of your solar chart that rules your earning power, comfort, and security. It can signal the need for new approaches to your finances, income, personal resources, valuables, and self-worth. You're likely to feel encouraged, inspired, and determined to make positive changes. A take-charge attitude can emerge from a feeling of lack, a dream, or sudden fear that you're not on top of things–even from an event that reminds you of who or what you value most. Sometimes, feeling temporarily insecure about your situation is enough to motivate you to strengthen your position. While money management can be in focus with this lunation, it's also a fantastic time to enjoy earthy and grounding activities.
Independent or competitive activities are highly favored this month and less so cooperative ones. Transits tend to stir your desire to improve business affairs, material concerns, and finances. You're ready to make a fresh start when it comes to making your life more secure and taking better care of your assets.
You're taking care of business and taking more pride in your things or your ability to earn or improve your life. You could gain some appreciation or admiration for your talents now. You also more fully enjoy your personal interests, learning, and sharing. There's more charm and warmth in your presentation. Sharing ideas and activities can lead to something very special and quite enterprising. You can feel a sense of self-mastery through specialized learning and skills development, fostering a feeling of competence.
Focus on detoxifying and cleansing from the 4th forward with Mars visiting your privacy sector. There can be some indecision during this cycle, but it's necessary now as it's a time for reviewing plans and desires. This transit does keep you on a fence in some areas as you consider all your options. It can also bring animation and liveliness to your private world. Your personal influence runs high, and although life is not always exciting this month, chances to improve your feelings of security are strong.
The Lunar Eclipse on the 17th is powerful for releasing something related to an intimate or financial matter. A debt owed or coming through to you can require attention, or an event that positions you to defend and honor your worth and value might emerge now. This lunation awakens you to matters surrounding sharing, give and take, power dynamics, ownership, intimacy, and finances. There can be epiphanies about financial and emotional support or dependencies.
Certainly, you may be dealing with inflated feelings about a person, relationship, or situation around the time of this eclipse. These topics are sure to be big ones for you until 2027, and epiphanies or discontent you experience now can get the ball rolling toward making meaningful changes along these lines.
Doing things patiently and gradually is your best bet. While last month was for new ideas, September is for fleshing out the practical details. It's a generally good time for discovering ways to boost your feelings of comfort or security. It's also solid for enterprising ideas. You want to rely on yourself.
The Sun heads into your communications sector on the 22nd, and Mercury follows suit on the 26th. Because your interests and the demands on you can be very diverse at this time, it can be challenging to focus, but branching out can serve you exceptionally well now. It's a great time to follow your curiosity and collect and share information.
Venus moves into your sector of heart and home on the 22nd, and your love of home, familiarity, comfort, and security increases. It's an excellent time to get extra rest, settle in, and learn about yourself and your emotional needs. Making peace at home or with family can figure strongly.
As such, you end the month rather well-rounded, even though you can remain somewhat retiring. It's a mentally busy time, but finding the moments to center yourself is also important.

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 second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’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.
For easier reading, the horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. However, for those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
