Your Monthly Love Horoscope for September 2023
Your Monthly Love Horoscope for September 2023. Discover your Monthly Love Horoscope for each zodiac sign here.
Aries
It’s September, Aries, which means a new season, new look, and new attitude! As beautiful Venus goes direct in confident Leo on September 3, you’re ready to call attention to yourself in the best possible way. Turning heads is only the start of the amazing things to come!
On the thirteenth, asteroid Pallas leaves practical thinker Virgo for the easygoing airiness of Libra, sending you searching for balance and peace in your love life. Here’s the thing, though: this energy can be extremely indecisive. If you spend too much time weighing the minute pros and cons of a romantic opportunity, you could miss it altogether.
On September 22, the sun also starts absorbing the aesthetic of beauty-loving Libra, so you are low-key obsessed with looks. Not just in a current or potential partner, but in every aspect of your life. Yes, there are less superficial things you could (should?) be focused on, but you can’t help but be attracted to all the shiny things now.
A full moon shows up in your fiery first house on the twenty-ninth, empowering you to take control of your romantic fate. If you aren’t where you want to be, what’s stopping you? Let your competitive spirit drive you toward your destiny.
Taurus
It’s time to free yourself from the past, Taurus. As Venus leaves her retrograde cycle and starts moving forward with enthusiastic Leo on September 3, you get the strength to let go of romantic entanglements that have been holding you back. Now get out and have some fun!
On the fourth, uninhibited Jupiter goes retrograde while in your stubborn sign, which results in romantic instability and turbulence over the next couple months. You’re not entirely sure of what you want, so trying to guess someone else’s needs and desires is next to impossible. Use this cosmic break to do some soul-searching.
Your luck takes a turn for the better during the helpful trine between the logical Virgo sun and Uranus in your careful sign on September 15. Make decisions with your head and not your heart now. With all this practical earthy energy around you, your common sense is like a superpower.
The sun enters idealistic Libra and your critical sixth house on the twenty-second, sending you on a quest for perfection. Here’s a little hint: it doesn’t exist. Having impossibly high standards when it comes to love honestly just sets you up for major disappointment. Forget about all those couples who seem to have it all. It’s an illusion.
Gemini
You’re able to focus fully on your crush or true love during the mentally agile earth trine between Mercury retrograde and Jupiter on September 4, which is honestly a minor miracle. You know you’ve got it bad when they’re the only thing on your mind!
On the fifteenth, your chatty leader Mercury goes direct while still visiting detailed Virgo and your fourth house of early influences, which could cause you to fixate on childhood experiences or trauma. Everything is connected, Gemini, so if you have a troubled love life, don’t rule out what you went through in your early years as a potential cause.
On September 22, there’s a solar shift from routine Virgo to balanced air sign Libra that feels like a fresh start in a lot of ways. There’s a lightness associated with love now that lets you have fun and be yourself. You’re fine exactly as you are. Don’t let anyone tell you anything different.
On the twenty-fifth, your love life benefits from the revealing Mercury-Jupiter trine because it encourages you to say what’s on your mind. Even if your words aren’t super nice or could have a negative impact on someone you care about, telling the truth is never a bad thing. You might try using a little bit of tact to lessen the sting, though.
Cancer
Are you ready for your glow up? Because as goddess Venus finally starts moving forward while paired with proud Leo on September 3, you’re really feeling yourself. Your look is iconic, and your attitude has just the right amount of sass. Anyone would be lucky to be seen with you.
On the thirteenth, asteroid Vesta leaves indecisive Gemini for your nurturing sign, sending you on a journey to make your loved ones feel safer and more comfortable. If you’re single, you’ll be focused on being the best date night host you can possibly be. Making your place feel warm, romantic, and inviting is a top priority.
Your emotional leader Luna is new in straight-to-the-point Virgo and your communication zone the next day, curbing your extreme moods and allowing you to express yourself clearly and concisely. Remember that it’s hard to convey tone over text or DM, though, Cancer. Emojis can convey what words can’t.
A full moon arrives in competitive Aries on September 29, infusing you with a fierce, enduring spirit to help you go the distance. When it comes to love, you’re not about to lose. You’ll do whatever it takes to “win,” even if that means losing sight of why you even wanted to come in first to begin with.
Leo
There’s a party in your den as vixen Venus goes direct in your social, outgoing first house on September 3! Doing something simple now to improve your appearance makes big waves. Expect a lot of compliments and invites soon!
On the fifteenth, things get intense as asteroid Ceres meets up with unshakeable Scorpio. Connecting on a deep level with someone is all that’s on your mind. If you’re single/dating, playing hard to get might seem like fun, but it will probably have an effect opposite to the one you want. If you’re currently in a relationship, disloyalty is a deal breaker.
If you’ve been worried about other people’s opinions of you, your partner, your lifestyle, etc., the sun entering open-minded Libra on September 22 should help put your mind at ease. The first thing to remember is that people don’t pay as much attention to you as you think they do, Leo. And secondly, anyone who puts pressure on you to be someone you’re not doesn’t deserve to have you in their life. Period.
The full moon on the twenty-ninth arrives in red-hot Aries and basically leaves you with no filter. Saying and doing whatever you want whenever you want to whomever you want works sometimes, but not always. If you don’t tone it down at the right times, this fiery lunation could burn you.
Prepare yourself to take on each month with your personalized Monthly Horoscope!
Virgo
When the optimistic sun and your smart leader Mercury (retrograde) meet up in your sign on September 6, your mind starts working overtime. This solid conjunction creates the resourceful energy you need to analyze what’s really going on in your love life. Figuring out what’s truly important is the first step toward making necessary improvements.
On the fourteenth, a new moon materializes in your first house, helping you become more effective and efficient. The details have never been as important as they are now, Virgo. Paying close attention to a partner or crush when they reveal seemingly trivial things to you is a skill that will pay off in the future.
A lot of the communication issues you’ve been having lately should start to get better when Mercury goes direct while still in your matter-of-fact sign on September 15, so you might want to wait until then to bring up touchy topics or controversial subjects with a partner or date. You might also locate missing texts and DMs now that you could have sworn never arrived.
When the sun leaves the comfort of your sign for airy Libra on the twenty-second, keep an open mind. Love will be about compromise and keeping the peace for the next month. Making waves only leads to getting in way over your head.
Libra
Venus, the queen of all things love, leaves her retrograde position on September 3 while traveling with fun and fiery Leo and your socialization zone, which is exceptionally good news for your love life. As things get back on track, romance is exciting again. Be spontaneous and daring!
On the thirteenth, wise asteroid Pallas starts soaking up your airy sign’s vibes, giving much-needed balance to your love lifestyle. Going overboard in either direction is never a good idea, Libra, so finding that equilibrium between complete aloofness and total obsession will be your main task during this astronomical transit.
A new season starts when the sun moves into your poised, lighthearted sign on September 22, and it puts you in the perfect position to mediate your own or a friend’s complicated love life. You’re able to see both sides of most love stories now, and this neutral perspective helps you come to a natural conclusion with style and grace.
On the twenty-ninth, the energy from a tense Venus-Uranus square threatens to ruin something beautiful, but that can only happen if you let it. Take a deep breath and count to ten. Calming yourself down before things escalate to that level shows you’re dedicated to making love, not war.
Scorpio
Karma can be a bitch, but when fateful Jupiter goes retrograde while paired with calm Taurus on September 4, it actually gives you a chance to right some wrongs. Use this time to reflect on how you hurt someone so when your opportunity comes to say you’re sorry, you’ll be ready.
You’re usually a great listener, and that attentive skill increases during the detailed Virgo new moon on the fourteenth. You already give off an aura of mystery and mysticism, but when you’re able to accurately recall little facts that bae or a crush told you a year earlier, they might think actual sorcery is at play!
You’re all about getting close and being intimate when nurturing Ceres pairs up with your intense sign on September 15, but you’re not really into giving the benefit of the doubt now. Someone has either proven they’re worthy of your affection, attention, or love or they haven’t. Period.
A full moon in fellow Mars-ruled, unpredictable Aries shows up like a wrecking ball on the twenty-ninth. You aren’t sure whether to hang on and swing along with it or run for cover. This lunation will keep you guessing, Scorpio, which is both exciting and terrifying at the same time. It probably isn’t the best time to try anything totally new or too far outside your comfort zone.
Sagittarius
Your expansive lead planet Jupiter has been paired with security-focused Taurus for a while, and it’s giving off unstable vibes as it moves into a retrograde position on September 4. One minute you’re ready to move forward and the next you feel something holding you back. The next couple months aren’t the time to make major love decisions, Sag.
On the eighth, a more positive sun-Jupiter earth trine puts you in an optimistic mood and sheds light on a positive romantic future. Sure, a lot of things can still go wrong, but why dwell on them? Sometimes putting on a happy face and looking on the bright side can really push the dark clouds away.
When lighthearted, beauty-loving Libra starts influencing the confident sun on September 22, your friend zone lights up with possibilities. You might know someone on a platonic level who has potential romantic energy, or you and a current partner might be headed into a phase when you can deepen your friendship. Building a solid foundation is so important when it comes to love.
The Universe produces an amazing Mercury-Jupiter trine on the twenty-fifth that can help you make major improvements to your love life if you’re willing to be innovative and experimental. What are some things you’ve never tried with a lover or ways you’ve never asked anyone out? Thinking creatively is your ticket to success.
Capricorn
Practical earth signs influence the productive earth trine between Mercury (retrograde) and Jupiter on September 4, helping you solve complicated romantic problems quickly and effectively. You might get accused of not caring because you’re being so bluntly logical, but nothing could be further from the truth.
On the fifteenth, technology gets back on track when Mercury goes direct in detailed Virgo, so be sure to restart your phone and upgrade all your dating apps. It’s possible that some of the texts and DMs you never received will suddenly pop up in the next week or so.
The sun is still in like-minded earth sign Virgo when it trines deep-thinking Pluto in your determined sign on September 20, which sends you on a serious fact-finding mission. Is someone lying to you or being secretive for no reason? You’re intent on uncovering the truth during this probing, revealing transit.
Your impulses take over during the full moon in aggressive Aries on the twenty-ninth, helping you step up and get what you really want. You aren’t in the mood to settle now, Capricorn. You have zero patience for people who can’t make up their mind about what they want to do. If they’re not all in, you’re ready to walk away.
Aquarius
You’re ready to try again when Venus leaves her retrograde cycle while in impulsive Leo on September 3. Forget about things (dates, arguments) that went sideways in the last few weeks and focus on getting your emotional sh*t together. Dwelling on things you can’t change is a waste of time.
You’re a big talker, but with a Virgo new moon on the fourteenth, you’re a much better listener. There’s something very satisfying about having a balanced conversation during this lunation, Aquarius. And you score big points when you show someone that you were really paying attention to them and not just nodding your head and saying “yeah” occasionally!
A major shift into a new season happens when the sun leaves critical Virgo for considerate Libra on the twenty-second, shortening the days while making you more tolerant and willing to compromise in current or potential relationships. There are two sides to every story, and the more willing you are to see things from another perspective, the more successful your love life will be.
Your ruler Uranus squares Venus on September 29 and trines Mercury the next day, producing hot and cold romantic energy. One day you’re nervous and anxious, and the next you’re excited and optimistic. Which is pretty representative of this thing called love. Just enjoy the ride and don’t worry too much about the little things.
Pisces
You gain a lot when loving Venus goes direct in extroverted Leo on September 3, Pisces. Most importantly, your self-confidence and sense of pride return, which should help you weed out the losers from your love life. You deserve the best, so if you’re with someone who isn’t living up to your expectations, it might be time to show them the door.
Wise asteroid Vesta pairs up with fellow water sign Cancer on the thirteenth, reminding you that a strong foundation of trust has to exist in a current or potential relationship in order for you to consider taking things to the next level. No matter how strong the physical connection is with someone, mutual respect has to be there too.
September 19 brings an opposition between the radiant sun and your hazy leader Neptune, which could really blind you to some aspects of love. You’re the first to admit that you can sometimes be na?ve, especially when looking the other way works in your favor. There’s nothing wrong with giving someone the benefit of the doubt, but ignoring your intuition will probably come back to bite you. The Universe is putting those red flags there for a reason.
