September 19th – 25th

A Breakthrough with Health and Well-Being 

This week’s headline items: on Thursday evening, the Balsamic Moon phase begins, and the Sun changes signs from detail-oriented Virgo to balance-seeking Libra, marking the beginning of the Autumn Equinox. Mercury (now retrograde) re-enters Virgo on Friday morning. On Saturday, Pluto starts to slow down again (aka “stationing”), preparing to end its 5-month Retrograde phase. The New Moon in Libra becomes exact on Sunday early evening.

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday late morning/early afternoon (for a little over 4.5 hours), Thursday morning (for 21 hours), and Sunday morning (for almost 4 hours).

Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have an important announcement…

Due to its Station phase, Pluto will be exalted, and its energy will be especially loud from this coming Saturday, Sept. 24th, until Oct. 21st. Pluto is urging us to build something solid, lasting, and emotionally empowering to us and future generations. Remember, Pluto is an emotional empowerment process; if something is “killing us slowly”, we will surely become aware of it during a Pluto Station. An exalted Pluto always bringing extra intensity to the table.

With this in mind, I want to call on anyone who needs emotional, spiritual, or mental support right now to take a look at my brand-new Coaching Packages that I designed with your success (and complete peace) in mind. 

The sessions are very powerful and very gentle at the same time, as they allow you to let go of any stress or discomfort, and provide a chance to reconnect with the inner peace and calm that is always available to you underneath all of the turmoil or stress.

Since these are brand-new packages, I am going to offer a 20% discount for the exchange of your feedback for the first three people who reach out to me by October 31st.

If, by the end of the 90 days of us working together, you are not satisfied with the results you have gained from our sessions, there will be a 100% money back guarantee!

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, September 19th:

Monday, The Moon remains protective, nurturing Cancer all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late afternoon. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say, and our feelings are thus more easily hurt — so be kind to yourself and others. Self-Care is vital until tomorrow afternoon…

Emotional safety is also important to us; we like connecting to the familiar and enjoy nurturing ourselves and others — home and family call to us, for instance. That said, ensure your glass is full before letting others drink from it; otherwise, you might feel drained and resentful.

Monday late morning, we are invited to make adjustments and (as best as we can) find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations. Make space for healing around anger or self-identity and for addressing emotional or family issues. (Moon in Cancer squares Chiron in Aries, exact at 10:15am EDT)

Monday late afternoon/early evening brings an opportunity to connect to family (or friends that feel like family) and reflect on what could improve everyone’s well-being — this could include health issues or concerns or simply looking at our nutrition and what feeds us…

We are also invited to create breakthroughs around things we enjoy through our five senses (e.g., food). This may also be a good time to find a unique or global approach to financial matters that bring us a sense of emotional security. (Moon in Cancer sextiles Venus in Virgo & Uranus in Taurus, exact at 4:53 & 5:43pm EDT)

Monday evening, we are asked to make some inner adjustments, as we may experience internal discomfort. Personal comfort and safety are important for the Moon in Cancer — but Saturn in Aquarius reminds us that attachment to the past will not lead to new creations or visions. (Moon in Cancer quincunxes Saturn in Aquarius, exact at 7:25pm EDT)

Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, a harmonious Venus/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 12:44am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday evening on; it will remain strong until this Thursday evening. This aspect helps us to embrace all that is new and unusual in romance and finance.

We are ready to experiment — but not to commit. We have an offbeat, pleasant attitude and people are more willing to socialize.

This is an ideal time for financial undertakings involving technology and the internet, metaphysics, the arts, or group activities. Our fear of taking risks lessens at this time — so this could be an interesting few days for the stock markets 🙂

Ask yourself: What do I picture when I imagine revolutionary health or work routines that support my values and make life tangibly more enjoyable for everyone who interacts with me? What might that teach me about my unique talents or value to the world? If I wanted to experience a breakthrough with my health and well-being, what might that look like?

Do you have your Ascendent, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 15-22 degrees of Virgo, Taurus, or Capricorn? If so, you will be most blessed by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra, or Aquarius (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Uranus rules Aquarius).

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, September 12th:

Monday, the Moon remains pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day. It will journey there until Tuesday very early morning. Life is an adventure; we’re more open to new ideas and enthusiastic about new projects. Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly and act immediately.

Our independence and dynamism are important to us right now, so we may find it hard to be disciplined or accept advice at this time; in general, our responses to others tend to be more assertive or even aggressive. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.

Monday early morning has lots of potential for healing around family, the “mother archetype”, home, and our past. We may feel more sensitive and insecure about what we identify with, and around our ability to be assertive; this allows us to give ourselves some compassion, acceptance, and nurturing in the face of our sensitivities and limitations (Moon in Aries conjuncts Chiron in Aries, exact at 5:13am EDT) 

Monday early afternoon, a somewhat challenging Sun/Saturn aspect becomes exact at 12:09pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build last Sunday afternoon; it will remain strong until Tuesday afternoon. This aspect operates more on an internal level. We feel uneasy about something, almost awkward, and must make a choice. An inner awareness needs to be developed to see what needs adjusting.

Our focus is drawn to the truth of the matter, but we could be pulled away by doubts, impatience, or by “accepting” responsibilities that aren’t ours (while ignoring the ones that are). We work hard but aren’t always recognized or compensated as we’d like and therefore sometimes run out of steam before our work is complete. Our life works best when we learn to take care of our most important responsibilities first.

Being of service and improving systems are important for Virgo, but Saturn in Aquarius reminds us that perfectionism or being overly humble will not bring forth new visions for the future.

Ask yourself: What future visions do I have for my local or online communities? Could I stay open to bringing in some new structures to fulfill my vision and create something sustainable? What is the worst that could happen if I chose “perfectionism” over “building a better future”? What role might self-responsibility or discernment play in all of this? What if I simply decided to stay adaptable?

As best you can, slow down, but don’t come to a halt — just because you’re not sure about something doesn’t mean it’s not worth taking a longer look — in other words, don’t discard things because they are different or new when you’re unsure what to do about them.

Ask yourself: What does taking care of my health in a self-responsible way look like to me? What future might I see if I slowed down? What might I notice if I took a longer-term view? How might clear discernment support my communities’ long-term goals?

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 19-21 degrees of Virgo or Aquarius? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Capricorn (the Sun rules Leo; Saturn rules Capricorn). 

Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, at 12:53am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC) that lasts for a little over 6.5 hours until 7:39am EDT (Tuesday morning). Use this intuitive time to make some adjustments and find creative ways to work with the energies at play: On the one hand, as best as you can, follow your inner compass and take care of your own needs; on the other hand, deepen your authentic connection to whatever you are building long-term.

As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday night until Tuesday morning ahead of time.

Having a Human Moment 

This week’s headline items: Mercury stations all week; Venus changes signs from Leo to Virgo very early Monday; Mercury comes to a halt in Libra and begins its 3-week Retrograde phase late on Friday; the Full Moon in Pisces becomes exact early on Saturday morning.

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday early evening (for 6 hours), Thursday morning (for a little over 16 hours), and Saturday evening (for a little over 6 hours).

Before we get to this week’s forecast, a gentle reminder…

Until Saturday morning is your last chance to sign up for this week’s Forum!  ==> We have our monthly Forecasting Forum at the end of this week…please see the end of this Weekly Forecast for more info!

Or click here for more info and to register for this month only.
(Registration includes access to the mp4-video recording of the live event!)

An EARLY BIRD SPECIAL is available until midnight Wednesday, Sept. 7th! 

To ask a question in advance; please email me by Sept. 9th by the end of the workday,… and if I don’t have it yet, send me a copy of your Birth Chart (If you have done a Reading or Coaching-Healing session with me in the past, or if you have already emailed me a copy of your chart, I will have it. If none of this applies to you, send me a pdf of your birth chart).

Now, this week’s Forecast…

Monday, September 5th:

Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late evening. We tend to be more realistic, serious, and cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.

Our ambition surges and brings a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this aspect supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes more important to us.

As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying, “I am doing the best I can, and that’s all I can ever do” 😉

Sunday night/Monday very early morning, at 12:05am EDT, Venus changes signs from fun and attention-loving Leo to detail-oriented, practical Virgo. She will journey through that sign until Sept. 29th. Our relationships will be put under the magnifying glass for the next three and a half weeks. We are more likely to want to make our relationships work in real terms.

We need to feel of service to others; we love to help, especially in a practical, down-to-earth way. This might also be a great time to acknowledge the people in our lives who take care of those little, daily details and make our lives easier 🙂

On a social level, we might be shyer, less confident, and most likely too busy to uphold our social commitments. On the financial side of things, we may want to invest in our health — especially around healthy daily routines — and anything that makes life run more smoothly on a practical level. Things that aren’t so practical, sensible, and “just plain right” may leave us feeling uneasy.

Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra? If so, you will feel shyer and possibly busier than usual for the next 3.5 weeks. Your heart will want to be of service to others. Our health is important now, and if we have a partner, the same is true for their health. If you are a Virgo Sun-sign or Rising-sign, you will have more love and beauty in your life for as long as Venus is in your sign.

Monday morning starts with lots of energy and a strong desire for accomplishment; we are invited to make adjustments and find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations. As best as you can, make space for pursuing your passions, self-growth, and long-term commitments — flexibility is key 😉 (Moon in Capricorn squares Jupiter in Aries, exact at 8:44am EDT)

Monday late morning, we feel the need to follow the rules and satisfy our long-term goals, but also to adjust and innovate when communicating and collaborating — balance is essential 😉 (Moon in Capricorn squares Mercury in Libra, exact at 11:21am EDT)

Monday early afternoon, we are invited to make some inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice. Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to connect and share ourselves with others — and on the other, the need to accomplish something out there in the real world and to be responsible and self-reliant. (Moon in Capricorn quincunxes Mars in Gemini, exact at 1:09pm EDT)

Monday late evening, we are invited to make adjustments and find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations. As best as you can, make space for looking into some alternative exercise programs or holistic approaches to your personal projects and current long-term commitments. Compassion is key 😉 (Moon in Capricorn squares Chiron in Aries, exact at 11:49pm EDT)

Happy Labor Day to everyone who is celebrating today!
