Your horoscope for the week of September 4 to September 10, 2023, is here, and the stars want you to step out into the light.

It's not your imagination; things do seem brighter all of a sudden. After weeks of causing relationship drama, fights, feuds, and more – Venus retrograde ended on September 3, 2023. Venus, the planet of love and romance, impacted everyone's relationships during its retrograde cycle. Some experienced heartbreak, while others deepened their love in the last weeks of summer. Regardless of whether you're starting September single or under a love spell, Venus retrograde highlighted the importance of choosing self-love over people-pleasing. It strengthened your ability to connect with yourself and embrace vulnerability without fear. Now that Venus is stationing direct, it's time to leave the baggage behind.

The good vibes just keep rolling on when Jupiter retrogrades in Taurus on September 4, 2023. Retrogrades in astrology have a negative reputation, but they can also bring surprise blessings from the Universe. This summer's Venus retrograde made you put your worth into perspective, and now Jupiter retrograde affirms what you will and won't accept. When Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, growth, and expansion, goes retrograde, it's a chance to rewrite your story. You're taking the lead rather than waiting for others to change your life. Missed opportunities, missed resources, and overlooked situations will return to your life until December 30, 2023, when Jupiter stations direct.

Finally, the week ends on September 6, 2023, with a dazzling Mercury cazimi in Virgo. Communication planet Mercury began its cosmic backspin on August 23, 2023, and this week, it transforms from the evening star to the morning star during a rare cazimi. During its evening star phase, Mercury appears less spirited and curious and more reflective and introspective. Now, as Mercury transforms into a morning star, you'll find yourself seeking new ideas and forms of self-expression. This event marks the halfway point for Mercury retrograde in Virgo, making it an ideal time for finalizing and revising plans. You'll be clear to take action when Mercury retrograde ends on September 15, 2023.

You'll be feeling enthusiastic about the future this week, Aries. Venus retrograde tested your adaptability – now you're putting some newfound skills to the test. The stars are guiding you towards better alignment, but plenty of work remains to be done. You might think you have all the answers, but during Jupiter retrograde, it's essential to keep an open mind and explore new ideas that you haven't considered before. Mastery is a myth. There is always something new to learn, and it's up to you to decide how much you want to challenge yourself. You're at the start of an exciting new period of life.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You're rewriting the rules of life, Taurus. The past six weeks have been emotionally challenging due to Venus retrograde, but you've emerged more confident and assertive. Gone are the days of picking people who can't love you how you want to be loved. You're asking for more. Jupiter retrograde will be a reminder that other people's perception of you is entirely their problem – not yours. Stop judging your success and happiness based on other people's opinions. Some people can't meet you as deeply as you meet yourself. This week's Mercury cazimi is a reminder that it isn't personal if you decide that certain connections don't do it for you anymore.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This week is a cosmic reset if you ever needed it, Gemini. During Venus retrograde, you noticed that your so-called friends were acting strange. Now that you have parted ways with these toxic people, it's time to surround yourself with a new group of besties. Being genuine and embracing radical authenticity is the greatest gift you can give yourself. And Jupiter retrograde in Taurus is a perfect time to meet people who accept you for who you are without pretense. This week's Mercury cazimi might have someone from the past sending you an overdue apology. Try to look beyond hurt feelings and listen to the real message being communicated.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Venus retrograde got a little too personal for your liking, Cancer. Over the past six weeks, you have focused on yourself and finding ways to validate your worth instead of seeking validation from others. With Venus now moving direct, it is an excellent opportunity to take some time to connect with your inner child and see what they need. Jupiter retrograde wants you to prove that you’re looking out for yourself. You can now create a life that reflects your values by healing your hidden wounds. The Mercury cazimi in Virgo is a reminder to practice positive self-talk and affirmations. Self-work is a continuous process and never truly finished, so be gentle with yourself.

You're getting back in the groove this week, Virgo. Venus retrograde revealed that you were getting ripped off or unappreciated, at the very least.

Think back to what excited you at the start of summer and reflect on how circumstances have changed. Try not to let the minor setbacks get the best of you.

You'll see an improvement in energy flow once Mercury resumes its direct motion next week on September 15.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22)

It's understandable if you feel disheartened after everything that happened this summer, Libra. Your planetary ruler spent the last six weeks retrograding in your communication zone.

You have the power to create a new path for yourself, so don't let fear hold you back. This week's Mercury cazimi has all the answers, but that doesn't mean you like them. Try not to be judgmental if you get some unsavory news this week. Failure can provide insights into future potential.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It's always darkest before the dawn, Scorpio. Venus retrograde in Leo may have caused you to stay in the shadows for a few months, but now you're back and better than ever. These last few weeks have led you to breakdowns and breakthroughs; now, a significant shift is in progress. When Jupiter retrogrades in Taurus – you're being given a chance to dissolve the barriers holding you back. You'll be tempted to indulge in some bad habits or old vices. Instead of turning to temporary fixes, embrace positive changes for the better. This Mercury cazimi may require redoing tasks, but it's necessary to avoid repeating them when Mercury goes direct on September 15.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Magic is in the air this week, Sagittarius. You like to follow the sparks of passion wherever they lead you. And this summer, Venus retrograde had you diving deeper into romance than ever before.

Jupiter, your planetary ruler, will be stationing retrograde this week, indicating that significant transformations are on the horizon. You're learning to acknowledge your progress and remembering that the fun lies in the journey. Mercury retrograde might cause a few frustrating delays at the start, so try not to rush things if you sense some external push-back. Trying too hard creates resistance. Let it go and watch it flow!

You reflected on how your relationships affect your self-worth and worked on being less dependent on external validation. Now that you've adjusted your expectations, Jupiter in Taurus will bring a windfall of long-awaited manifestations and good karma into your life. When someone fails to acknowledge your efforts, sometimes you must demand what you deserve or move on. This week's Mercury cazimi is teaching you how to communicate and solve your issues better as an individual. Keep your standards high and speak up if something doesn't work out as you'd hoped.

You're tapping into your inner oracle this week, Pisces. Venus retrograde was a harsh wake-up call about where you were letting things slide.
