Fun isn’t just something you want…it’s something you need. And although there’s been the occasional spark of joy, 2020 has been extremely intense. But on September 2, the Full Moon in Pisces helps you find a new dimension to this challenging year. This electric lunation invites you to plant seeds on both personal and professional levels. Chances are that over the past six-months, you’ve spent more time at home than ever before…but just because this is your status quo doesn’t mean you’ve been static. In fact, your couch has become a portal. Against the backdrop of these unprecedented conditions, you’ve been learning, growing, and discovering. Under the super-charged moonlight, consider ways you can make changes to your space that make it even more supportive. Redecorate your bedroom, set up a music studio, or even plant a little herb garden. Right now, taking an active role in cultivating your environment will help you connect with progress and—perhaps most importantly—purpose.
We often associated the word “retrograde” with Mercury, but did you know that all the planets go backwards? In facts, Mars’ reversal is the most unusual. Every two years, the red planet goes backwards for two months. Of course, this strange astrological phenomenon occurs in 2020! On September 9, Mars begins to cruise backwards in Aries, a like-minded fire sign. Until November 13, Mars’ about-face movement in your creativity sector may feel like a bad case of writer’s block…but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Let’s be honest, Sagittarius, not all of your 1:00AM poetry is created equally. In fact, Mars Retrograde is a great way for you to separate your experiments from your “finished products,” weeding out any work that is probably best not to share with a prospective editor. Similarly, if you've been plugging away at the same project without much progress, Mars Retrograde will prompt you to identify what's not working and begin a new project. Sure, you can keep throwing spaghetti at the wall...but if you know it’s not going anywhere, it’s time to try something new!
On September 17, the Sun and Moon join forces, forming a New Moon in Virgo in your professional domain. Go through the career checklist: Update your resume, revise your elevator pitch, and make sure your ambitions support your present-day interests. As a Sagittarius, there’s no doubt that you’re interested in everything and everything—but under this lunation, you want to focus your energy where it counts. Let me put it this way, Sagittarius: You’re about to enter the fast lane. This is your opportunity to make sure you’re ready to put your pedal to the metal!
Finally, Libra season begins on September 22, as the Sun enters this judicious air sign. Astrologically, fire and air are quite compatible. In fact, you relate to Libra’s curious spirit. You enjoy connecting with interesting people, sharing fascinating stories, and trying new things. Although you may not be able to use your passport right now, the Sun’s movement through Libra can still help you expand your horizons through virtual adventures. The internet is more than shameless selfies and TikTok dance videos (though these are, of course, very important, too). Over the next few weeks, find new ways you can use digital platforms in new, innovative ways. Your adventurous spirit cannot be stifled—onward and upward!
