Relationships are a strong theme

Relationships, either personal or in business are a strong theme for the rest of the month of September. There will also be an emphasis on financial matters.

Venus has entered the sign of Scorpio and is approaching the opposition of Uranus in Taurus (exact on September 23rd).  There is tension because of the opposition and Venus is not happy in Scorpio.  This interaction can create questions about what do you value and what you wish to share with others.  There could be an emphasis on financial matters. Some surprises are in store and instability in finances is indicated, as Uranus rules the unexpected. All of this is a little rocky over the full Moon period, so practice some boundaries and listen to yourself as Venus is not in her power.

Saturn squares Venus mid-month, time for a reality check and a serious look at relationships whether business or personal… what do I need to keep or let go. Mars enters Libra and is not happy; Mars is a fiery and Libra is the cardinal air sign.  Mars wants action and movement where Libra is always looking for that delicate balance.  Maybe a good time for strategies, weighing up options and acting behind the scenes.  Mars is in mutual reception with Venus, so this offers support for each other in a subtle way, a softening around the edges.

Towards the end of the month, Mercury squares Pluto and trines Jupiter, so there can be intense focus on all types of communication personally or with work. This could challenge the way you think or beliefs you may hold, so take care if there are criticisms, as your words could be sharp.  Jupiter is there to give you a boost of confidence and a positive outlook.  There could be intense power plays in the public arena with all types of communication.  Jupiter is trine Mercury so that will help balance the intensity of the square with Pluto.  Keep in mind Jupiter and Neptune are retrograde, so there is the possibility that what you can’t see may come to the surface.  Jupiter is about truth and expansion and Neptune is the master of illusions and dreams, so being retrograde these could be stripped away.

There is support from the grand trine Mars, Saturn & North node in air signs, with the Sun joining this party toward the end of September. Mars brings in movement, a slower Mars now but still wants to take action… it's time and ready.  Saturn is providing stability to build a foundation, which is required to move forward with plans… a great time to consolidate and complete a project. Mercury turns retrograde on the 27th, so if you want to plan long term endeavours and actions, ask questions, gather information, and put a plan together, being trine, now could be the time with little difficulty. There is movement, but not a lot of substance yet, it is building but it is bubbling under the surface. Keep in mind with Mercury retrograde, if there are delays it is an opportunity to slow down and take your time.
