Welcome to September, Capricorn. Last month, Mercury went retrograde, making you a little cranky as it prompted slowdowns at work. This month, when the sun moves into Libra, opportunities abound, and several personal transformations take place.
On Sunday, September 1, Pluto, the planet of transformation, which is currently retrograde, moves into your sign, Capricorn. You like to think you're right all the time, and yes, you often are. However, this quality can hold you back from accepting desired changes. With Pluto retrograde in your sign, you may have the uncomfortable but required experience of remembering you don't always get things right. On a lighter note, you may also wish to switch up your hair color or even get a piercing, or learn about injectables. Also, on this date, Uranus, the rebel of the zodiac, goes retrograde, which primarily affects any sexual or romantic partnerships. With Uranus retrograde in your 5th House, you're encouraged to take responsibility for the times when you were wrong, in addition to embracing vanity and treating yourself to a beauty or wellness ritual to celebrate your personal growth.
These themes continue through the Virgo new moon on Monday, September 2. New moons are the lunations associated with fresh starts, emphasizing both your desire to make any amends and treat yourself to a new look. And it appears that not only do you look super hot, but that owning up to any moments of arrogance pays off. On Wednesday, September 4, Mars, which rules sexual energy, moves into your romantic 7th House of Partnership, gracing relationships with love and passion.
You might want to break out the tarot cards or work with ancestors on or around Sunday, September 8, as Pallas, the asteroid of wisdom, moves into your intuitive 12th House of the Unconscious. Listen to your gut around this date, whether it's about a work opportunity or a potential new friend or lover. Before making any snap decisions, it's best to sit and meditate with it, as your psychic powers and wisdom are amplified through this transit.
Be aware that there's a Pisces new moon and a lunar eclipse, which can lead to fights and even sudden endings, on Tuesday, September 17. This isn't a day for partying or having important, relationship-defining discussions. The day after the eclipse, when we are still feeling its effects, on Wednesday, September 18, your ruling planet, strict Saturn, opposes (a challenging aspect) the communication planet Mercury. All in all, this week is a really bad time to try to talk things out. If a friend or partner is pushing you to have emotional conversations, you're allowed to implement boundaries and ask to wait until later in the month when things calm down.
And things really do calm down. When Libra season begins on Sunday, September 22 (this date is the fall equinox, when the day and night are of equal hours, and Mabon, the witchy Thanksgiving), the sun moves into your ambitious 10th House. This means that you can go ahead with any necessary conversations in your personal life and indicates that professional opportunities could arise.
The month ends on a note that is advantageous for business negotiations.
The fun, light-hearted vibes continue when loving Venus shifts into your 11th House of Friendship on Sunday, September 22. The next few weeks see you catching up with old friends, perhaps someone from out of town, or even traveling to visit loved ones yourself. You work hard, Capricorn, but with Venus in your 11th House, allow yourself some socialization, too.
You'll be pleased to know that the month ends on a note that is advantageous for business negotiations. The divine messenger Mercury moves into your ambitious 10th House on Thursday, September 26, which helps your words drip with honey, gives your conversations an assertive nature, and is a perfect time to ask for a raise, promotion, or the better work/life balance that you've been after. We'll see you in October.
