September 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:
The month ahead is one of personal attention, dear Virgo, and a time for your yearly "new beginning." Mars does turn retrograde on the 9th, making going after what you want a little more complicated than you might expect. Even so, you’re drawing positive attention and in the position to attend to personal plans and needs in September. The Sun is in your sign until the 22nd and a New Moon occurs in Virgo on the 17th. Your ruler, Mercury, is direct and chugging along nicely. It’s time to put your personal interests first, although be aware that too-sudden changes can stir up opposition.
The Harvest Moon on the 2nd does turn your attention to a relationship matter that can come to full bloom, which sets you on a new, fresh path. There can be frustrations or heightened awareness about your relationship needs that require changes. Your true feelings emerge now. A new perspective on your life, perhaps through the eyes of another, can mark a turning point for you.
On the 3-4, you may think that filling a sudden desire will be the answer to all your problems, but it's likely to be a mere distraction. Dig deeper, and you're likely to find that the surface topic has little to do with the real problem. You could feel torn between filling your own needs and pleasing someone, and there could be a sense that you're out of rhythm. From a bit of conflict, you're likely to improve cooperation, friendliness, and open conversations. You may gain clarity about a person's feelings for you or you could thoroughly enjoy a conversation about the future.
Much of the month (from September 5-27), Mercury spends time in your resources sector, and this helps you make sense of money matters, personal talents, income, and possessions or valuables. It's a good time to sort out your money and things. Business ideas can be stellar, and common-sense thinking increases.
Still, your affections and relationships can be complicated. For one, Venus moves into the sign behind yours starting on the 6th, marking a yearly review period when you're processing and digesting more than you're moving forward in the love and pleasure department. As well, Mars turns retrograde on the 9th, happening in your intimacy sector. Desires are hard to understand. It's better to let things flow instead of push things along--you'll learn a lot about yourself and your intimacy needs in the meantime.
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th, making slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations especially important, most affecting intimacy, finances, and sharing. Intimate matters may become more intense and complicated. Joint financial projects or initiatives may stall, or there can be some ambiguity with finances, particularly debts and shared money or resources. Refocusing, backtracking, and review may be necessary.
You'll be exploring anger and assertion over buried matters, and learning to manage your life on an emotional level in better ways. Mars retrogrades tend to turn your attention to unresolved issues as you may be seeking closure or you may be looking to reopen something that ended a while ago. The steps you take now to reorganize should benefit you greatly down the road.
Especially in the first three weeks of September, and most pronounced around the 8-9, people enjoy your company and seek you out. It's an excellent time for building bridges or boosting current relationships. Even if love matters are on the complicated side, other connections feel more straightforward. You're especially inclined to dream big dreams as you focus on renewal and creative refreshment. You may feel freer to express yourself or happy to explore hobbies and other forms of expressive recreation.
While September's transits tend to raise your spirits, and you're focusing on advancing your personal interests, there are ups and downs to manage. For best results, focus on the things you love instead of pinning your hopes elsewhere. If you are unprepared or disorganized, any drama occurring now can feel worse than it is. Recognize that you are more sensitive on emotional, spiritual, and physical levels, and do your best to regularly take a break from overdoing or overthinking.
Jupiter turns direct on the 12th, and creative blocks might lift. More clarity or enthusiasm comes to your love life and creative projects as you go forward. Faith and optimism increase. It's a time of more spontaneous, natural connections. Your excitement or motivation builds surrounding love, entertainment, self-expression, hobbies, and pastimes.
Although this shift is gradual, you can begin feeling more optimistic about relationships mid-month. The week following is a lovely time for seeing others in a particularly compassionate light, and this feels healthy and affirming. Through conversation and observation, you may come to a greater understanding of a private matter or relationship. You are a little more open to sharing something personal, and this can be a pleasant, helpful release. The focus is on unblocking, growing, and improving.
The New Moon on the 17th is yours--it's in your sign and is powerful for your intuition about starting fresh. It’s about reinventing yourself, as well as fresh starts related to your manner, approach to the world, personal image, independence, and attitude or outlook. Some feelings of discouragement about a relationship or situation can be fuel for starting anew. Mars has just recently turned retrograde in your intimacy sector, and the need to slow down to reexamine matters is strong.
From the 20th, you'll find more interest, personal power, and fulfillment through your personal interests, communications, studies, or projects. The Sun enters your resources sector on the 22nd, and you'll begin to pay more and more attention to personal possessions, money matters, natural talents, matters of security and comfort, and intimate relationships.
From the 22-24, there can be some tensions. People can be on edge, nitpicky, and nervous. Matters of ownership can be an especially heavy issue, and it's a less than ideal time to lend out money or things or even to collect on loans. The debts of a partner can frustrate you, or you might find that a partner is disapproving or unappreciative. Instead, issues of money or respect can make you quite tense. It's best not to jump into action until you've sorted things out.
In the last few days of the month, life and relationships can be pleasantly spicy. You can feel inspired by your conversations and the connections you make, and your intimate life can get a boost with extra attention and natural acceptance. You could be feeling quite passionate about a person or an idea. Popularity increases. Finances and business are also favored with support coming at just the right moment. Saturn's direct turn on the 29th is another sign that problem areas with creative or romantic pursuits are beginning to sort out. A hobby can unblock.
Still, this can be a time when challenges related to close relationships or finances can be ongoing. While a somewhat troubled period, you get the chance to resolve long-standing problems and conflicts by confronting the issues.

Virgo (Born August 23 to September 2) AND Virgo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Virgo:
September 2020 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 21st:
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 22nd forward:
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 5th:
Venus continues to move through your solar eleventh house. This is a strong time for putting your ego aside and lowering your defenses and simply enjoying people. It's a good time for networking and settling disputes if there are differences to iron out with friends. Cooperation comes easily, and warm friendships can be made during this cycle. Personal freedom is especially important to you right now, and you won't enjoy any associations that limit you. It can also be a good time for earnings from business.
From September 6th forward:
Venus is spending some time in "hibernation" in your privacy sector. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that your love life is stagnant, but that your affection is expressed behind closed doors. Attraction to secrets and whispers characterize this period, although for some, it can also be a time of endings, relationship concerns, and wistfulness. Personal and social contacts may be secretive, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some loneliness or romantic frustration. However, this can also be a deliciously private and intimate time.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 5th:
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 6-26:
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 27th 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
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of intimacy, sharing, and finances because Mars rules these areas of your solar chart. Intimate matters may become more intense and complicated. Joint financial projects or initiatives may stall, or you could find that you are less confident about expressing yourself in personal ways. Anger management might be in order now, and it's a strong period for reviewing how you have been asserting yourself with a partner. There can be frustrations with how you've been managing power in a partnership, as well as drive to improve this situation. There may be a struggle with addictions at this time or the magnification of fears and phobias that have been driving your behavior. The good news is that you have a chance to better manage them.
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.

Virgo (Born September 3 to 12) AND Virgo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Virgo:
September 2020 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 14th:
Venus continues to move through your solar eleventh house. This is a strong time for putting your ego aside and lowering your defenses and simply enjoying people.

September 2020 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 11th:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar twelfth house. This is the time to listen to your intuition, to take a break from the hectic pace of your life, and to reflect on what you have learned in the past year. You might naturally retreat a little and take more private time for yourself now.
Your physical energy levels may not be up to par for the time being, and this is your body signaling you to take a break. This is not an ideal time for pushing forward with new personal projects and plans. It is better to finish up projects and tie up loose ends now.
From September 12th forward:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until September 23rd:
Venus continues to move through your solar eleventh house. This is a strong time for putting your ego aside and lowering your defenses and simply enjoying people. It's a good time for networking and settling disputes if there are differences to iron out with friends. Cooperation comes easily, and warm friendships can be made during this cycle. Personal freedom is especially important to you right now, and you won't enjoy any associations that limit you. It can also be a good time for earnings from business.
From the 24th forward:
Venus is spending some time in "hibernation" in your privacy sector. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that your love life is stagnant, but that your affection is expressed behind closed doors. Attraction to secrets and whispers characterize this period, although for some, it can also be a time of endings, relationship concerns, and wistfulness. Personal and social contacts may be secretive, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some loneliness or romantic frustration. However, this can also be a deliciously private and intimate time.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 18th:
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 the 19th 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
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of intimacy, sharing, and finances because Mars rules these areas of your solar chart. Intimate matters may become more intense and complicated. Joint financial projects or initiatives may stall, or you could find that you are less confident about expressing yourself in personal ways. Anger management might be in order now, and it's a strong period for reviewing how you have been asserting yourself with a partner. There can be frustrations with how you've been managing power in a partnership, as well as drive to improve this situation. There may be a struggle with addictions at this time or the magnification of fears and phobias that have been driving your behavior. The good news is that you have a chance to better manage them.
Occurring in the sector that Mars rules, all of these themes are magnified. See Mars Retrograde for more details.
Mars will continue to transit this area of your solar chart for longer than usual–until February 2021 but is only retrograde until November 13th.
Overview Horoscope:
September 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:
The month ahead is one of personal attention, dear Virgo, and a time for your yearly "new beginning." Mars does turn retrograde on the 9th, making going after what you want a little more complicated than you might expect. Even so, you’re drawing positive attention and in the position to attend to personal plans and needs in September. The Sun is in your sign until the 22nd and a New Moon occurs in Virgo on the 17th. Your ruler, Mercury, is direct and chugging along nicely. It’s time to put your personal interests first, although be aware that too-sudden changes can stir up opposition.
The Harvest Moon on the 2nd does turn your attention to a relationship matter that can come to full bloom, which sets you on a new, fresh path. There can be frustrations or heightened awareness about your relationship needs that require changes. Your true feelings emerge now. A new perspective on your life, perhaps through the eyes of another, can mark a turning point for you.
On the 3-4, you may think that filling a sudden desire will be the answer to all your problems, but it's likely to be a mere distraction. Dig deeper, and you're likely to find that the surface topic has little to do with the real problem. You could feel torn between filling your own needs and pleasing someone, and there could be a sense that you're out of rhythm. From a bit of conflict, you're likely to improve cooperation, friendliness, and open conversations. You may gain clarity about a person's feelings for you or you could thoroughly enjoy a conversation about the future.
Much of the month (from September 5-27), Mercury spends time in your resources sector, and this helps you make sense of money matters, personal talents, income, and possessions or valuables. It's a good time to sort out your money and things. Business ideas can be stellar, and common-sense thinking increases.
Still, your affections and relationships can be complicated. For one, Venus moves into the sign behind yours starting on the 6th, marking a yearly review period when you're processing and digesting more than you're moving forward in the love and pleasure department. As well, Mars turns retrograde on the 9th, happening in your intimacy sector. Desires are hard to understand. It's better to let things flow instead of push things along--you'll learn a lot about yourself and your intimacy needs in the meantime.
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th, making slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations especially important, most affecting intimacy, finances, and sharing. Intimate matters may become more intense and complicated. Joint financial projects or initiatives may stall, or there can be some ambiguity with finances, particularly debts and shared money or resources. Refocusing, backtracking, and review may be necessary.
You'll be exploring anger and assertion over buried matters, and learning to manage your life on an emotional level in better ways. Mars retrogrades tend to turn your attention to unresolved issues as you may be seeking closure or you may be looking to reopen something that ended a while ago. The steps you take now to reorganize should benefit you greatly down the road.
Especially in the first three weeks of September, and most pronounced around the 8-9, people enjoy your company and seek you out. It's an excellent time for building bridges or boosting current relationships. Even if love matters are on the complicated side, other connections feel more straightforward. You're especially inclined to dream big dreams as you focus on renewal and creative refreshment. You may feel freer to express yourself or happy to explore hobbies and other forms of expressive recreation.
While September's transits tend to raise your spirits, and you're focusing on advancing your personal interests, there are ups and downs to manage. For best results, focus on the things you love instead of pinning your hopes elsewhere. If you are unprepared or disorganized, any drama occurring now can feel worse than it is. Recognize that you are more sensitive on emotional, spiritual, and physical levels, and do your best to regularly take a break from overdoing or overthinking.
Jupiter turns direct on the 12th, and creative blocks might lift. More clarity or enthusiasm comes to your love life and creative projects as you go forward. Faith and optimism increase. It's a time of more spontaneous, natural connections. Your excitement or motivation builds surrounding love, entertainment, self-expression, hobbies, and pastimes.
Although this shift is gradual, you can begin feeling more optimistic about relationships mid-month. The week following is a lovely time for seeing others in a particularly compassionate light, and this feels healthy and affirming. Through conversation and observation, you may come to a greater understanding of a private matter or relationship. You are a little more open to sharing something personal, and this can be a pleasant, helpful release. The focus is on unblocking, growing, and improving.
The New Moon on the 17th is yours--it's in your sign and is powerful for your intuition about starting fresh. It’s about reinventing yourself, as well as fresh starts related to your manner, approach to the world, personal image, independence, and attitude or outlook. Some feelings of discouragement about a relationship or situation can be fuel for starting anew. Mars has just recently turned retrograde in your intimacy sector, and the need to slow down to reexamine matters is strong.
From the 20th, you'll find more interest, personal power, and fulfillment through your personal interests, communications, studies, or projects. The Sun enters your resources sector on the 22nd, and you'll begin to pay more and more attention to personal possessions, money matters, natural talents, matters of security and comfort, and intimate relationships.
From the 22-24, there can be some tensions. People can be on edge, nitpicky, and nervous. Matters of ownership can be an especially heavy issue, and it's a less than ideal time to lend out money or things or even to collect on loans. The debts of a partner can frustrate you, or you might find that a partner is disapproving or unappreciative. Instead, issues of money or respect can make you quite tense. It's best not to jump into action until you've sorted things out.
In the last few days of the month, life and relationships can be pleasantly spicy. You can feel inspired by your conversations and the connections you make, and your intimate life can get a boost with extra attention and natural acceptance. You could be feeling quite passionate about a person or an idea. Popularity increases. Finances and business are also favored with support coming at just the right moment. Saturn's direct turn on the 29th is another sign that problem areas with creative or romantic pursuits are beginning to sort out. A hobby can unblock.
Still, this can be a time when challenges related to close relationships or finances can be ongoing. While a somewhat troubled period, you get the chance to resolve long-standing problems and conflicts by confronting the issues.

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.
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.
