The month opens with action planet Mars in Gemini activating the home and family sector of your chart, perhaps finding you busy moving, redecorating, addressing issues with housemates, or connecting with family. An especially productive energy flows on September 1 as Mars mingles with lucky Jupiter, which happens to be your ruling planet, in Aries: This bodes well for you financially, or for your general sense of security and comfort. Mercury in Libra opposes Jupiter on September 2, kicking up big conversations about money: The mood is optimistic and open-minded, but be careful not to overpromise and watch out for exaggerations. This is an exciting time for growth, but taking on too much at once won’t get you as far as you’d like to go!

Mars retrograde is one of the highlights of the year, and Mars enters its pre-retrograde shadow period on September 3 in Gemini. Mars retrograde begins on October 30, ends on January 12, 2023, and finally clears its post-retrograde shadow on March 15, 2023. During Mars retrograde, you may be reworking your vision on what home, family, and security mean to you in a major way, and during the pre-retrograde shadow between from September 3 and October 30, you’ll get a sneak peek of the themes that Mars retrograde finds you reviewing and reworking.

Mercury clears its post-retrograde shadow period on October 17, giving you plenty of time to get things in order! 

Mercury retrograde is famously a period of miscommunications and delays, and as such, astrologers advise against traveling, signing contracts, buying expensive things, or starting new projects—but if you take it slow and double check your work, there’s no need to fear the retrograde! In fact, this can be a great time to revisit projects or conversations you previously had to set aside, and you might run into old friends.

You’re releasing an old version of yourself at this time, making room for new possibilities, an, some exciting news or opportunities will soon arrive, especially as the sun in Virgo mingles with Uranus in Taurus on September 11.
