Overview for this Month: Virgo (All)
September 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:
During your birthday season, dear Virgo, you're not only reinventing yourself, you're stepping into a new, empowered version of you. While you might feel a bit out of sync or not fully aligned until the 9th, the rest of the month more than makes up for it. You're beginning a phase of increased engagement and readiness to make things happen. From the 9th to the 26th, you'll find yourself expressing your thoughts and ideas more confidently and assertively.
The Sun is in Virgo to the 22nd, and Mercury is in your sign from the 9th to the 26th. You have great ideas and all the right motivation to do the work to get them going, especially with Mars supporting you from your social sector from the 4th forward. Your own needs feel paramount this month, and if you're not getting what you want, you'll likely take a stand. Generally speaking, things are playing in your favor, but you're also more active with friends or networks.
Uranus begins its retrograde cycle at the top of September, which will last almost five months. In recent years, Uranus has been encouraging an upgrade of ninth-house matters, such as belief systems, education, publishing, and communications. If you've made changes too quickly, this retrograde phase helps you restore balance. It's a time for processing recent changes, beliefs, and experiences. You're no longer running ahead too quickly in these areas!
Pluto moves back into your sector of joy, pleasure, and romance for the final leg of its transit of this area of your solar chart. This move indicates further (and final) renovating of your love life or creative world. Pluto will remain in this area of your solar chart until November 19th, after which it leaves permanently. Resolving some of the deep feelings, resentments, and desire for control in these areas can be in the cards now.
After the New Moon on the 2nd, you might be undergoing a personal makeover of sorts. Not everyone in your life is gung-ho, but you may very well need to go off in your own direction now. Especially if others are stern or unhelpful, you'll recognize the need to fall back on yourself. In truth, partner feedback can sometimes be stark this month, fueling your desire to be more self-reliant. Fortunately, you can feel freer and more inspired by your special interests, topics, and adventures. You may experiment with new ways of presenting yourself and approaching the world.
This New Moon in Virgo marks a new beginning or a refreshing change. People see you a little differently, and you might want to work this in your favor as much as you can.
Group and friend activity is dynamic this month. You might have more courage to make a new friend or to take the lead in a group or friendship setting. Very often, September is about being bold and brave as you make no apologies for being yourself.
The first three weeks of September are strong for attracting money, gifts, favors, and valuables. You are gracious when handling yourself and more likely to take the high road if needed. Increased self-respect reverberates and benefits you. You are attracting the good things in life! Energies are solid for putting effort into growing something, whether a business, relationship, or project, and enjoying the process. Generosity or openness can feel great, too. A sense of inner joy and peace can be with you, which boosts your magnetism. Your conviction strengthens further if you find more meaning in what you are doing, which is likely now.
While the spotlight is certainly on you this month, and it's important to take care of personal matters, it can also be a time for reaching a turning point in a partnership.
The Full Moon around this time of year is always about close relationships. It can be a time to come to terms with your feelings for someone or recognize needs you've overlooked or brushed aside. This year, it occurs on the 17th and is a Lunar Eclipse, which is most potent. Some partnership drama, such as misunderstandings or conflicts, is possible. Listen to your feelings, but don't make decisions while distracted – wait it out.
This eclipse is the first of several directly affecting your sign for the coming two and a half years! As this series prompts an exploration of partnering and independence in your life, the discoveries you will make are likely to be highly significant. If feelings of discontent magnify right now, they help motivate you to make improvements. Partnerships are changing, and this is a time when your needs for others become more apparent.
During the course of this eclipse set, lasting until March 2027, as you explore your needs for relationship and independence, you may find that these needs sometimes seem to conflict--they may even feel pitted against each other. However, the goal is to find a balance that allows you to maintain healthy relationships while also honoring your independence. Events and feelings occurring this month seem to get the ball rolling on this journey of self-discovery and balance.
Venus visits your communications sector from the 22nd forward, and your words can get you closer to others, at least in spirit. Collaboration can be wonderful. You might enjoy sharing or publishing, joining a group or workshop, furthering a cause, or communicating with a new friend. It's a great period for finding pleasure in your connections and personal interests and improving relationships with siblings, acquaintances, and neighbors.
The Sun moves out of your sign on the 22nd, and your focus shifts as your instincts guide you to build something, whether it's a hobby, a particular interest or idea, or a work project. Circumstances may be such that you recognize the need to let go of certain possessions or even attitudes towards business and money matters to move forward. You can benefit from special activities that pull you out of the usual routine, particularly with someone special, in the last week of the month.

September 2024 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 22nd:
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.
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 seventh house. Surprises surrounding partnerships and relationships 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, a surprising revelation from a partner, a circumstance that calls for you to support a significant other, a flurry of activity prompted by a partner's needs or demands for your services from the general public, and other such possibilities. You now have a natural flair for sensing the needs and desires of the general public. You are likely to draw highly emotional and sensitive individuals into your social circle. Partnership "tests" are possible now, but so is a chance to truly connect to a special someone in your life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 22nd:
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 23rd 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 8th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar twelfth house. This is a cycle in which clear decision-making does not come easily. You are paying more attention to unspoken or hidden elements of any circumstance. You are seeing all sides to any given story, and forming a definite opinion does not seem "right" for the time being. Thoughts turn to the past. It's a strong period for gaining different perspectives on problems or issues in your life, as well as for reflection and research, but not the easiest time for presenting your ideas.
From September 9th to 26th:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.
This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.
Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
From September 26th 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
Until the 4th:
Mars continues to energize your solar tenth house now. You bring much energy, enthusiasm, and drive to your career or to directing activities in your life during this cycle. You may be quite competitive during this period, preferring to achieve and accomplish things on your own. This attitude can, in some cases, be seen by others as an instigating or otherwise offensive energy, so be aware of that possibility.
This is a strong time for directly pursuing your goals, and, if you need that extra push or oomph to get a plan going, particularly a professional one, or to assert your desires, then this is the time. You are self-motivated, and your enthusiasm can be harnessed if you so choose.
From September 4th forward:
Mars is energizing your solar eleventh house now. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others' toes.
As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

Virgo (Born September 3 to 12) AND Virgo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Virgo:
September 2024 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
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.
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.

Partnership "tests" are possible now, but so is a chance to truly connect to a special someone in your life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 6th:
Venus continues to grace your solar first house now. Something about how you present yourself, your image, and your manner boosts your personal magnetism during this cycle. It's a good time to attract who and what you want into your life experience. You're more charming and you are likely to want to attract things to you indirectly rather than forcefully now, perhaps through charm and playfulness. You have a stronger need to be good to yourself, although a negative expression of this placement can be excessive attention to pampering oneself or taking the easy way out. You especially enjoy making a good impression on others, and peace-making. You might also be paying more attention to beauty and style now.
From September 6th forward:
Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it—you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 15th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar twelfth house. This is a cycle in which clear decision-making does not come easily. You are paying more attention to unspoken or hidden elements of any circumstance. You are seeing all sides to any given story, and forming a definite opinion does not seem "right" for the time being.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 21st:

Virgo (Born September 13 to 23) AND Virgo Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Virgo:
September 2024 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 12th:
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.
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 seventh house. Surprises surrounding partnerships and relationships 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, a surprising revelation from a partner, a circumstance that calls for you to support a significant other, a flurry of activity prompted by a partner's needs or demands for your services from the general public, and other such possibilities. You now have a natural flair for sensing the needs and desires of the general public. You are likely to draw highly emotional and sensitive individuals into your social circle. Partnership "tests" are possible now, but so is a chance to truly connect to a special someone in your life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 14th:
Venus continues to grace your solar first house now. Something about how you present yourself, your image, and your manner boosts your personal magnetism during this cycle. It's a good time to attract who and what you want into your life experience. You're more charming and you are likely to want to attract things to you indirectly rather than forcefully now, perhaps through charm and playfulness. You have a stronger need to be good to yourself, although a negative expression of this placement can be excessive attention to pampering oneself or taking the easy way out. You especially enjoy making a good impression on others, and peace-making. You might also be paying more attention to beauty and style now.
From September 15th forward:
Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it—you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 20th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar twelfth house. This is a cycle in which clear decision-making does not come easily. You are paying more attention to unspoken or hidden elements of any circumstance. You are seeing all sides to any given story, and forming a definite opinion does not seem "right" for the time being. Thoughts turn to the past. It's a strong period for gaining different perspectives on problems or issues in your life, as well as for reflection and research, but not the easiest time for presenting your ideas.
From September 20th forward:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.
This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.
Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar tenth house now. You bring much energy, enthusiasm, and drive to your career or to directing activities in your life during this cycle. You may be quite competitive during this period, preferring to achieve and accomplish things on your own. This attitude can, in some cases, be seen by others as an instigating or otherwise offensive energy, so be aware of that possibility.
This is a strong time for directly pursuing your goals, and, if you need that extra push or oomph to get a plan going, particularly a professional one, or to assert your desires, then this is the time. You are self-motivated, and your enthusiasm can be harnessed if you so choose.
Overview Horoscope:
September 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:
During your birthday season, dear Virgo, you're not only reinventing yourself, you're stepping into a new, empowered version of you. While you might feel a bit out of sync or not fully aligned until the 9th, the rest of the month more than makes up for it. You're beginning a phase of increased engagement and readiness to make things happen. From the 9th to the 26th, you'll find yourself expressing your thoughts and ideas more confidently and assertively.
The Sun is in Virgo to the 22nd, and Mercury is in your sign from the 9th to the 26th. You have great ideas and all the right motivation to do the work to get them going, especially with Mars supporting you from your social sector from the 4th forward. Your own needs feel paramount this month, and if you're not getting what you want, you'll likely take a stand. Generally speaking, things are playing in your favor, but you're also more active with friends or networks.
Uranus begins its retrograde cycle at the top of September, which will last almost five months. In recent years, Uranus has been encouraging an upgrade of ninth-house matters, such as belief systems, education, publishing, and communications. If you've made changes too quickly, this retrograde phase helps you restore balance. It's a time for processing recent changes, beliefs, and experiences. You're no longer running ahead too quickly in these areas!
Pluto moves back into your sector of joy, pleasure, and romance for the final leg of its transit of this area of your solar chart. This move indicates further (and final) renovating of your love life or creative world. Pluto will remain in this area of your solar chart until November 19th, after which it leaves permanently. Resolving some of the deep feelings, resentments, and desire for control in these areas can be in the cards now.
After the New Moon on the 2nd, you might be undergoing a personal makeover of sorts. Not everyone in your life is gung-ho, but you may very well need to go off in your own direction now. Especially if others are stern or unhelpful, you'll recognize the need to fall back on yourself. In truth, partner feedback can sometimes be stark this month, fueling your desire to be more self-reliant. Fortunately, you can feel freer and more inspired by your special interests, topics, and adventures. You may experiment with new ways of presenting yourself and approaching the world.
This New Moon in Virgo marks a new beginning or a refreshing change. People see you a little differently, and you might want to work this in your favor as much as you can.
Group and friend activity is dynamic this month. You might have more courage to make a new friend or to take the lead in a group or friendship setting. Very often, September is about being bold and brave as you make no apologies for being yourself.
The first three weeks of September are strong for attracting money, gifts, favors, and valuables. You are gracious when handling yourself and more likely to take the high road if needed. Increased self-respect reverberates and benefits you. You are attracting the good things in life! Energies are solid for putting effort into growing something, whether a business, relationship, or project, and enjoying the process. Generosity or openness can feel great, too. A sense of inner joy and peace can be with you, which boosts your magnetism. Your conviction strengthens further if you find more meaning in what you are doing, which is likely now.
While the spotlight is certainly on you this month, and it's important to take care of personal matters, it can also be a time for reaching a turning point in a partnership.
The Full Moon around this time of year is always about close relationships. It can be a time to come to terms with your feelings for someone or recognize needs you've overlooked or brushed aside. This year, it occurs on the 17th and is a Lunar Eclipse, which is most potent. Some partnership drama, such as misunderstandings or conflicts, is possible. Listen to your feelings, but don't make decisions while distracted – wait it out.
This eclipse is the first of several directly affecting your sign for the coming two and a half years! As this series prompts an exploration of partnering and independence in your life, the discoveries you will make are likely to be highly significant. If feelings of discontent magnify right now, they help motivate you to make improvements. Partnerships are changing, and this is a time when your needs for others become more apparent.
During the course of this eclipse set, lasting until March 2027, as you explore your needs for relationship and independence, you may find that these needs sometimes seem to conflict--they may even feel pitted against each other. However, the goal is to find a balance that allows you to maintain healthy relationships while also honoring your independence. Events and feelings occurring this month seem to get the ball rolling on this journey of self-discovery and balance.
Venus visits your communications sector from the 22nd forward, and your words can get you closer to others, at least in spirit. Collaboration can be wonderful. You might enjoy sharing or publishing, joining a group or workshop, furthering a cause, or communicating with a new friend. It's a great period for finding pleasure in your connections and personal interests and improving relationships with siblings, acquaintances, and neighbors.
The Sun moves out of your sign on the 22nd, and your focus shifts as your instincts guide you to build something, whether it's a hobby, a particular interest or idea, or a work project. Circumstances may be such that you recognize the need to let go of certain possessions or even attitudes towards business and money matters to move forward. You can benefit from special activities that pull you out of the usual routine, particularly with someone special, in the last week of the month.

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.
