Astrological Monthly Forecast September 2023
September is the month of the Fall Equinox for the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of Spring for the Southern Hemisphere.
This energetically powerful turning point reminds us of the transience of life….
The slowing impact of regressive Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto in September 2023 is of great influence, both collectively and individually.
It’s like swimming against the current.
In September 2023, all planets are in retrograde except Mars in Libra.
From September 4, 2023 Venus in Leo will be direct in Leo, but her unstable post-retrograde influence will continue throughout the month.
So we are faced with a hot late summer in which unstable relationships are terminated.
Until the end of September 2023, it is advisable to wait with aesthetic operations or major investments, because needs and expectations are not yet in balance.
From September 4, 2023, Jupiter will go retrograde in Taurus.
The next five months will affect global economic growth strategy.

Mercury’s third retrograde period of 2023 will end from September 15, 2023, but again we have to take into account the post-shadow period until the end of September 2023.
September 2023 is therefore the month of communication problems, transport delays, logistical and technological failures.
With Mercury in Virgo, we mainly deal with delays in structures, routines and schedules.
We have to adapt to the slow pace by sticking to a tight schedule.
On September 15, 2023, the same day Mercury goes direct again, the New Moon will be in Virgo.

On September 17, 2023, Venus at 15°18 in fiery Leo forms a tense square to retrograde Jupiter in Taurus.
This square can be the cause of tense relationships, upheaval and turmoil.
Also from seismological activity, because Venus, the ruler of the terrestrial Taurus is also square to retrograde unpredictable Uranus in Taurus.
On September 20, 2023, the Sun in Virgo at 26º is exactly opposite retrograde Neptune in Pisces.
The gigantic light blue planet is then “closest” to Earth and is completely illuminated by the Sun. Throughout the night, Neptune will be visible through a powerful telescope as a small blue dot.
The volatile opposition of the Sun in Virgo with retrograde Neptune in Pisces can lead to instability, inflation, deception, discontent, chaos, violence and crime, as well as extreme weather conditions, problems at sea, ships, water shortages, climatic conditions, seismological and volcanic activity.
On September 21, 2023, the Sun in Virgo forms a purifying trine with Pluto retrograde in Capricorn, bringing profound experiences that prompt transformation.

The period up to October 23, 2023 will focus on honesty, cooperation, fairness, balance and how to balance complex interpersonal dynamics as a whole.
With the Sun in Libra, Autumn has set in in the Northern Hemisphere and Spring has started in the Southern Hemisphere, the Spring Equinox.
The wheel of the year turns to colder, darker times. We celebrate the Feast of Madron or Mabon, when the Sun shines directly on the Equator, the turning point of the Autumn Equinox.
The magical tipping point where day and night are of equal length. A period of silence in which Mother Nature prepares for Winter, the period of demolition and reconstruction.
On September 24, 2023, Mars at 18°24 Libra will be directly opposite etrograde asteroid Chiron in Aries.
Mars (ruler of Aries) represents our drive, ambition and assertiveness, while Chiron represents our deepest inner wounds and emotional pain.
This significant astrological event can affect individual and collective energies.
Throughout September 2023, Mars in Libra continues to grow into an exact square to retrograde Pluto in Capricorn (on October 9, 2023 exact), followed by an annular Solar Eclipse in Libra on October 14, 2023….
In mid-May 2023 there was the opposition Mars in Leo/Pluto in Aquarius and that had a major impact on the war in Ukraine, NATO and Russia.
With the increasing square of Mars/Pluto and the continuing square of retrograde Pluto at the Moon’s nodes, the conflict is not going to end anytime soon.
However, Ukraine will come under increasing pressure from its Western allies to end the war.

The transit of Saturn in Pisces until February 20, 2026 can be seen as an intermediate period.
Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, it symbolizes the end, but also the promise of new life.
Pisces is the prenatal period, a brooding period, the womb. The preparation.
When Saturn will form a conjunction with Neptune in Aries on February 20, 2026 at 0º Aries, the world may change significantly, both politically and economically.
The year 2026 will be a major turning point for all of us.
For the time being, we are still in a transitional phase with a retrograde Saturn in Pisces.
We can’t ignore it anymore. The climate is changing.
Due to the influence of retrograde Saturn in Pisces, we are increasingly seeing the devastating effects of climate change in many parts of the world.
Last Summer, due to the influence of Mars in Leo and Jupiter in Taurus, was ravaged by climate extremes such as extreme heat and drought, extreme flooding, forest fires, heat waves, tornadoes, cyclones, volcanic eruptions, landslides and mudslides, making climate change seem to be accelerating.
The run-up to the last quarter of 2023 will be stormy with economic turmoil, major global challenges such as war, scarcity, extreme drought, fires and recession.
When the noise of the world around you is deafening, seek the silence within yourself.
Enjoy the scents and colors of Autumn, the fading light and the tranquility of the gradually receding nature.
Have a beautiful month of September!
