All Signs:
As we shift from summer to autumn, the Sun now moves into sensible, grounded Virgo. This earthy energy encourages us to get more organized at work and home, and helps us to improve upon our day-to-day patterns so they better serve us. Health and healing are major themes now, making this an excellent time to revise exercise regimes and cultivate positive eating habits. The New Moon in Virgo occurs on Sept. 2nd gifting us with a potent window for inner reflection. We will more easily reconnect to our deeper selves and find a balance between the practical, task-oriented world of work while at the same time,  nurturing our inner world of spiritual awareness and meaningful growth. Meanwhile, keep in mind that Mercury, the planet of communication and thought, is gradually moving out of its shadow and will be fully back on course by Sept. 14th. This is a good time to declutter our spaces (mentally and physically) to get more clarity, and ramp up for a productive season ahead!

Aries (March 21-April 19)  
As the Sun moves through your Sixth House of work, health and day-to-day activities, you will be inspired to take better care of yourself, Aries. This bodes especially well when it comes to exercise regimes, food and nutrition. By prioritizing your well-being, you’ll feel more confident and better resourced to deal with the challenges that life throws your way. While your fiery nature doesn’t like to be hemmed in: nevertheless,  organizing your schedule and giving yourself a quality structure to work from will keep you on task. Keep in mind that Mercury is still climbing out of its shadow, and will be fully back on track by Sept. 14th, so best to hold off on buying cars, computers, cell phones and electronics until that date. However, this is an excellent time to edit and refine your work and make sure everything is in order. This is also a good time for research, study and applied learning, especially when it comes to mastering a new skill and expanding on your abilities. Your intuition will be stronger during the time of the Full Moon on Sept 17th. You will sense the tempo of others and you might feel compelled to offer help or assistance to someone in need. The act of generosity will give you a sense of meaning and personal reward.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
The Sun is now making its way through your fellow Earth Sign, which means you are literally in your element, Taurus. This is an excellent time to take in the beauty around you, express yourself and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Creative pursuits are favoured, whether they involve the arts, gardening, cooking, music and other forms of expression. The New Moon on Sept. 2nd offers you a potent opportunity for self-reflection and renewal, encouraging you to align with your true nature and revitalize your passions. Mercury won’t be fully out of its shadow and back on its path until Sept 14th. (Remember to be patient with others, and be sure to clarify issues to avoid misunderstandings.) Time with family members and loved ones will put a smile on your face, as you enjoy catching up and celebrating these cherished bonds. Others will be drawn to your bright spirit, which means romantic opportunities might occur! Take note singles Taureans: this is a prime time to step into the spotlight and attract admirers!

In fact, you’ll find this energy surge uplifting! (Just be mindful not to overindulge or take things too far).

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
As the Sun makes its way across the bottom of your chart, your attention turns to home and family matters, Gemini. Time spent with loved ones and those who are part of your inner fold can be deeply rewarding now. Similarly, home improvement projects and any effort to make your personal space more nurturing will be favoured. The New Moon occurring on Sept. 2nd offers you a potent window for self-care, personal growth and increased mental clarity. Let go of those lingering self-doubts to make space for positive thoughts and impulses to take root. Keep in mind that your ruler, Mercury, while stationed direct, won’t be fully out of its shadow until Sept 14th. You can use this time to recharge your batteries, review your goals, and reorganize your schedule so it better supports your work efforts and more importantly, your well-being. The Full Moon occurring on Sept. 17th activates the tug-of-war between the demands of work and career versus the needs of home, family and personal well-being. Mending and tending to key relationships will be especially beneficial. Your thoughtful gestures inspire others to respond in kind, and this in turn, will cultivate a warm, giving community around you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You’re feeling more interested and engaged with the world around you, Cancer because the Sun is activating your 3rd House of Communications, knowledge and community experiences, thereby inviting you to have an open mind and explore the world around you. This is a good time to join that writer’s group you’ve had your eye on, or sign up for that conference you’ve always wanted to attend.  The New Moon on Sept. 2 marks a powerful time for mental clarity; and you can use this potent energy to clean out stuck mental perceptions and recharge your intellectual batteries. This an excellent time for research, study and education in all its forms. In turn, you’re excited to share your knowledge with those around you, making this a favourable time for writing pursuits, teaching, and thought-provoking discussions. The Full Moon on Sept. 17th will encourage you to connect with your intuition, explore your inner landscape, and observe the thoughts and emotions that rise to the surface. You can also use this lunar energy to challenge internal obstacles and push through limiting belief systems. This is an opportune time to rewire your inner voice by replacing negative self-talk with a kinder, more nurturing voice that assists in cultivating a more optimistic outlook and boosts your self-esteem.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

As the Sun activates your 2nd House, your focus will shift to personal resources, financial growth and what you value, dear Leo. You’re encouraged to assess your present material situation, and take the necessary steps to fortify what’s working, and make adjustments to what no longer serves you. This is a good time to review financials, go over budgets and highlight worthwhile investments that align with your aspirations. Do keep in mind that it’s important to distinguish between material wealth and your inner self-worth. Your value as an individual extends far beyond your possessions or financial status. While material wealth can enhance your quality of life, it cannot define your worth as a human being. The New Moon on Sept. 2nd opens a potent window of renewal concerning your self-worth and your relationship with money. Take the time to remind yourself of your inner strengths, and how valuable you truly are, and cultivate more positive self-regard. As you build on your financial future, you will do so with more clarity and a keen awareness of what matters to you. The Full Moon on Sept. 17th can bring to light hidden stumbling blocks in your relationship dynamics; in particular, where self-worth and intimate relationships intersect. This is a powerful time to change ingrained habits and beliefs so you can enjoy a deeper, more authentic exchange with others.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You’ll be gifted with a potent window to connect with your inner, true self and channel this energy into creative projects and meaningful change.

The Full Moon on Sept. 17 taking place opposite your sign, will bring relationship issues into focus. Pay attention to what comes up and what you can do to heal or strengthen special bonds.
