Astrological Forecast for September 2021

As I start to write this column, I open my blind with force to find I just scared a young doe eating grass with her sister. I calmed down and they stayed for a while.

The wooded area right out of my apartment window offered me a pair of gentle does grass eating that always represented spiritual messages to me. I felt as thou they wanted all of us to know that September brings relationships back together in balance.

As I write this column on August 23^rd, the T.V. is off. The silence of nature is in the air and the remaining rains fall periodically along with the calm winds blowing the leaves gently after a strong storm has passed.

Virgo and Pisces are getting the attentions with the new and full Moon this month.

Virgo always reminds me of Earth and the harvest that the summer has brought us.

Two young deer represent balance between male and female energies and the beginning of new life. Maybe a new school year, a new relationship, a new baby is born, a new job is starting, and new abundance flows through our lives gracefully.

With all the universal planets retrograde, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, it shows competitions slowed down for international affairs. Before I start to talk about the wonderful new that the new Moon brings, please pray for international situations which want to find balance.

Pluto will be the first planet to station direct on October 6^th. Then Saturn stations direct on October 11^th. Jupiter will station direct on October 18^th. It could take this long to find stability to the chaotic energies between a fleeing Afghanistan President and the new government that is taking place there.

The new Moon shows promise of more peace as it has 2 grand trines in the Earth element. Earth can ground things and make things more practical. The new Moon is in Virgo at 14 degrees (8:52PM EDT) on September 6^th which is Labor Day. A great day to start thinking of new beginnings.

If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Virgo or the other Earth signs, Capricorn and Taurus, an easy flow of abundance, orderliness, good health and love are in store for you this month.

Sun, Moon and Mars are in Virgo opposing Jupiter in Pisces in this new Moon chart.

Back to school is the top priority for parents and their children. Virgo is associated with health and healing. So much effort will be put into this new beginning school year to make sure everyone is safe.

The sign of Virgo is known to be hygienic. So, germs or viruses will have a hard time to manifest more in a month dominated by Virgo at least till September 20^th. It has been since March of 2020 that the educational systems have been tripped up. EVERYONE BACK TO SCHOOL and off online learning.

Remember the 2 deer that I saw at the beginning of this write up. Being together with friends for social interaction brings stability to mental, emotional and physical health.

Neptune opposes this new Moon and wants to scare people away from moving forward with false advertisements, Neptune rules the media and deception, but the good news is Neptune adds the compassion, unconditional love, to trust in a higher power to make life work for everyone.

Venus moves into Scorpio on September 10^th, and we enjoy doing research and figuring out all the dark details of forensic life. This is a wonderful combination for students or any detective type of work requiring research gathering to come to the right conclusions.

Venus remains in Scorpio till October 7^th.

Mars moves into Libra on September 14th and starts a chain reaction for the sign of Libra. If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Libra it is a long haul for you of internal experiences where you question everything that is going on.

The reason for this, Mercury entered Libra on August 30^th and by the time it stations retrograde on September 27, it is at 25 degrees. Yikes….. That means it will take much longer than 3 weeks to move into Scorpio.

This delay of Mercury moving into its next sign we saw in the last retrograde period when Mercury was retrograde in Gemini. It took 2 and a half months to travel through Gemini.

Because Mercury will station retrograde at 25 degrees of Libra on the 27^th, it will take till November 6th for Mercury to enter Scorpio. August 30th till November 6^th is a lot longer than the normal 3 weeks Mercury stays in a sign.

What does this all mean for Libra?

We all know Libra has a hard time making up their minds and trying to find the balance of any situations. This retrograde period will allow Libra to question everything in life from the inside out not the outside in. Much less superficial.

Find balance in all areas of life through self-reflections.

Yoga, deep meditations, breathing deeply or whatever it takes to feel the stillness and liveliness of silence. Then, come to conclusions about life. Your job, relationships, health, abundance, travel, residential move or whatever your mind can’t seem to make conclusive.

Alicia Keys is in the “Celebrity Spotlight”, and she has her Moon and three other planets in Libra. Jupiter, Saturn and Moon are all in the 7^th house and if her birthtime is 3 minutes too late, Pluto would also fall in the 7^th house. Talk about trying to find the balance in relationships.

Alicia Keys is a meditator. She has spoken openly that meditation has helped her be a better mother. God bless her.

The full Moon is in Pisces at 28 degrees on September 20^th (7:55PM EDT). Pisces is the opposite of Virgo offering a more sensitive and creative approach to life. Pisces may find Virgo too practical while Virgo may think Pisces is floating around in a dream cloud.

If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Pisces this is a good time for clarity to your life’s directions. What are my goals for the rest of 2021?

Pisces needs a plan, or they lose themselves in puffy dream clouds of unconditional love that are more likely to be deceptive rather than reality. Take advice from a Virgo to stabilize your plans for maximum benefit.

Jupiter will re-enter Pisces at the end of December of 2021. That means that Jupiter will travel through the sign of Pisces in 2022 giving them extra luck, as Jupiter is the classical ruler of Pisces, to fulfill their wishes and dreams. Set up your plans now so your clear about what you want to manifest for 2022.

Both Pisces and Virgo are at the late degrees for this full Moon showing conclusions and a sense of peace with their new plans they started the day after Labor Day. Mercury is conjunct the part of fortune in Libra helping us all find balance. I think this is a great time.

I think by the full Moon, almost everyone is feeling like we are getting behind the last 18 months of chaos and confusion. Health moves to improved levels in America and we watch the rest of the world and pray that other countries have what they need to fight covid.

The Sun moves into the sign of peace and balance, Libra, on September 22^nd at (3:21PM EDT) and we begin the Fall Equinox. It is the end of a very long and relaxed summer of 2021.

This full Moon conjuncts Neptune and psychic abilities are increased. Sensitivity to others feelings are increased. Creative arts like music, dance, photography and all the fine arts are on the move. Broadway will be open again and New York is on fire. It’s alive and ready to go.

Rudhyar’s interpretation, the author of Sabian Symbols, has emphasis on embracing diversity on all levels at 29 degrees of Pisces. This is another indication that international tensions may calm down.

With Uranus square to Saturn and Saturn square to Venus with Venus in opposition to Uranus, a military surprise may be in store around the full Moon by America. A new awakening just when many have fallen asleep.

This would include the former President of Afghanistan Ashraf Ghani who fled his own people and left them behind. As of today, September 23^rd, there has been no mention of Ashraf Ghani on the major news stations. I don’t think the full Moon will be too bright for any politician internationally to hide from the responsibility to their own people.

May everyone be safe who has helped bring balance into life. A special thank you to American soldiers and may the country of Haiti get back on its feet somehow.

The international humanitarian organizations will be very busy this month and through the end of the year. Many people are hurting here in America and around the world from natural disasters and political fall outs.

May the sign of Libra bring balance to troubled areas and with the sighting of the two doe’s at the beginning of this astrological write up, balance in nature brings peace and joy. Gentle waves of love and joy create peace.

Relationships of all kinds are looking to balance themselves out in September and October. The two young doe’s express balance between male and female energies so war is not needed. Life is rich with joy and love as God intended it all to be when nature is left alone.

Humans need to learn how to get out of Mother nature’s way so she can just do her beautiful work. Creating balance through non-violence.
