September 27 - October 3: ROOM TO MOVE

The week beginning Sunday, September 27th starts with a newly waning Moon shining brightly from Pisces, at the side of retrograde Saturn, as the Sun moves through the middle degrees of Mercury’s earth sign, Virgo. After moving to Aries, the Moon enjoys alone time through the week, traversing the empty first few signs of the zodiac. This could create a sense of space and perspective, inviting moments of rest in the midst of a continuing busy streak.

While we aren’t seeing any other planets shifting signs this week, we are seeing the current framework settling in for what could be the background to a dynamic October and November. Rahu and Ketu are sinking toward the early degrees of Aquarius and Leo, finishing up their current transit toward the end of November, pulling us in deeply toward a conversation about transforming legacy structures into what matches current conditions.

Mars settles into his Cancer debility with exalted Jupiter, which offers us the opportunity for a major transformative shift that will require finesse in deploying force as we navigate changes in the upcoming months. Gaining positive encouragement and guidance from Jupiter, Mars then applies his strength and push toward his normal aspect angles, currently landing in Libra, Capricorn, and Aquarius. This pulls the puffed up strength of Mars into the whole Rahu, Mercury, and Venus story, building a theme of excitement, enthusiasm, and amplified activity.

On Friday, Venus at 15 degrees Libra will initiate a retrograde cycle, increasing the tempo in Libra which only continues through October as Mercury also retrogrades on the 24th. This tempo could be quite frenetic, but also exhilarating in some cases, when it comes to creative streaks and magical connections. It is also an indication of shifting ground ahead, with the imminent Jupiter, Ketu, Mars action starting in November.
