We were still in the New Moon phase when we started the week. In addition, from now until Sunday, September 20th, we are in a cosmic window of time that is considered to be the seed level for the 12 months to come. Meaning, our thoughts and actions will have an effect on the events that will unfold.
The Moon opens the week in Libra. On Monday, she moves to Scorpio, a conjunct venue which is considered to be good for our emotional systems and our internal processes. However, this intensifies the energy of Scorpio, and we can become a little suspicious about everything and afraid of exposure. Scorpios have deep energy, so on one hand, we risk falling into extreme judgment or taking revenge. But on the other hand, we can allow ourselves to tap into our souls on a more expansive level.
Mars has entered the sign of Cancer at 24 degrees. On Sunday, we may be able to gain more understanding of how to resolve issues with people who are close to us. We may even see how to enhance healthy connections with family members, not by giving them more than we are comfortable with, but by creating positive interactions and allowing ourselves to receive, not just give. On Sunday, September 20th, the Moon in Capricorn will be in a position to Mars that creates tension and a desire to control, but it can also help us set positive boundaries and maintain discipline.
Mercury starts the week in a position with Neptune. As we know, it is now preparing itself to go into opposition with Saturn, a planet that is more restrictive and can create obstacles. If we were dreaming during the opposition with Neptune, then Saturn now asks us, Is that really practical? The opposition between Mercury and Saturn will be on Friday, September 18th. This is the time to set the right boundaries in our lives when it comes to the expectations of others. Ask yourself: How am I creating positive interactions, and how am I just trying to please others?
As we mentioned, Venus goes retrograde, so pay extra attention to tension in your romantic relationships. Do not overlook money matters because it all comes down to the energy you create.
