Your September Horoscope Is Here, And The Next Month Is Going To Be Exhausting
There’s always a ton of stuff to organize and sort out in September, with the end of summer being kinda-totally unavoidable and all. But this September is going to be busy AF.
It all kicks off with a full moon on the 2nd, followed by not one, not two, but three planets making big moves. Mars goes retrograde on the 9th, Jupiter goes direct on the 12th, and Saturn goes direct on the 29th. FYI: Whenever planets shift around like this, it means puh-lenty of stuff is about to happen.
The Mars retrograde makes you feel super driven, while Saturn going direct can make you feel like there are a lot of rules—real or implied—to wade through to get what you need. On the work front, you’ll start to take a second look at your job and how fulfilled (or not) it’s making you feel RN. Oh, and there’s a new moon on the 17th and the fall equinox kicking off on the 22nd to keep in mind, too.
Here's what else is in store for your zodiac sign this month, according to Donna Page, a professional astrologer with a graduate degree in counseling psychology.
ARIES (MARCH 21–APRIL 19)
It’s time to tidy up your LinkedIn profile, Aries: You’re going to need it. February brings a huge emphasis on connecting with people around your career, so start reaching out to friends (and friends of friends) who can help you move things forward on the work front. The new moon on the 11th has you craving some solid time with your buddies, so make a date to catch up with your BFF.
Expect to take a closer look at your health and daily routine with the full moon on the 27th. Suddenly, you’ll be hyper-conscious about the things you’re doing that are good for you—and where you’re tripping yourself up. Also, you’ll be reminded of this super simple fact: Sometimes, taking a 10-minute breather from the chaos of life can have you come back stronger and more focused than ever.
TAURUS (APRIL 20–MAY 20)
You’re ruled by Venus, which is hanging out in Capricorn rn. And that’s stirring up a harmonious energy for you, making this an easy-peasy January. But that doesn’t mean you won’t be putting in the work: Mars, the planet of action, moves into your sign on the 6th, which can really light a fire in your professional life. You’ll start logging on for work early and volunteering for bigger projects, just cuz.
On the 13th, the new moon in Capricorn is happening in a sector of your chart about knowledge and how you view the world. What don’t you know, and how can you figure it out? Later, on the 28th, you’ll mull over your work-life balance. Maybe you can have it all—and know it all, too.
GEMINI (MAY 21–JUNE 20)
You’ve got a lot going on this month, Gem, and it’s all thanks to Mars hanging out in your sign. You’ll be inspired to tackle your to-do list like it’s nobody’s business and, btw, you’ll have no time for people who try to slow you down. You’re busy here, m'kay?
This month, you’ll also be reminded about the importance of boundaries. If a friend or coworker tries to cross yours, it’s time for a chat. Oh, and FYI: The new moon on the 13th is in your house of career. What do you want out of your work, anyway? If you’re not on the right path, it’s time to make a change.
CANCER (JUNE 21–JULY 22)
You’ll kick off this month thinking about times when you’ve tripped yourself up in life. What can you learn from those moments, exactly? It’s not a bad idea to figure that out—sooner rather than later.
The new moon on the 13th is in a sector of your chart about understanding yourself better, making it a really great time to journal. Later, when Venus moves into Aries on the 21st, you’ll have a think about your career. Are you headed in the right direction, or do you need to change things up? Good stuff is headed your way—don’t forget to seize the moment.
LEO (JULY 23–AUGUST 22)
It’s time to kick up the group text chain again, Leo—this month is all about your friends. You’ll be hyper-focused on reconnecting with your buddies. It’ll feel so, so good to just sit and talk, even if it’s just over the phone.
You’ll also have some deep thoughts about work this month. Are you getting the recognition you deserve? If not, there’s a new opportunity just waiting for you. When Venus moves into Aries on the 21st, you’ll be tempted to take a risk. Maybe it’s time to step outside of your comfort zone...
VIRGO (AUGUST 23–SEPTEMBER 22)
Sometimes, you’ve got to speak up to be heard. And that’s exactly what you’ll do at work in the beginning of March. You’ve got ideas, so… might as well share 'em!
When Venus moves into Aries on the 21st, you’ll be fired up about negotiating an agreement, whether it’s lowering your rent, securing a new car loan, or upping your salary. Don’t feel nervous—you’ve got this. Later, the full moon on the 28th is shining in your house of self-worth and money. Maybe it’s time to splurge on those pricey jeans you’ve been eyeing. You’re worth it.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23–OCTOBER 22)
You’re pretty good at tackling the stuff that needs to get done on a daily basis, given that you do it on the reg. But the full moon on the 2nd will push you to do what you can to make everything a little healthier and happier for yourself.
Maybe you’ll incorporate a little meditation into your morning or start working out first thing so you don’t end up stressing over it all day. Around the new moon on the 17th, you’ll take a personal timeout to focus on yourself. Later, when the Sun moves into Libra on the 22nd, you’ll feel rejuvenated. Sure, life has been a little…intense lately, but you’ve got this.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23–NOVEMBER 21)
Just a heads up: You’ll kick off this month being a little worried about finances. But don’t stress it too much—talking things out with a friend will help you figure out how to handle it. Then, the new moon on the 13th pushes you to take time for yourself, so light some candles and hop in the tub with a good book.
On the 21st, Venus moves into a sector of your chart about health, fit-spiring you to push a little harder on your wellness plan. Maybe it’s time to download a new workout app or try a virtual class?

Figuring that out now can help you avoid some issues down the road.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22–DECEMBER 21)

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20–FEBRUARY 18)
Figuring out how far you can stretch your cash is always tricky, but the new moon on the 13th brings up a new dilemma. Do you really need that? If you’ve found a good deal, then dive on in. If not, maybe it’s time to empty your cart.
