Weekly Horoscope for Sept. 3-9

Sunday: the Moon is in Aries
An Aries Moon will likely bring a feeling of necessary fast action. The ideas are fine at this time, but wait for the Moon to transition into Taurus to see how they could pan out. 

Monday, Tuesday: the Moon is in Taurus
Jupiter is in Taurus and will be until May of next year (see planet list below). At some point during this time, you may find an increase in your finances or receive a great gift or an inheritance. It’s best to just keep this in the back of your mind right now and enjoy the Moon’s elevated position in the zodiac. Do something special for yourself or for someone else.

Wednesday, Thursday: the Moon is in Gemini
Lots of communication, lots of information floating around. Enjoy the social sign Gemini, and consult a female person (Moon) for info if desired.

Friday, Saturday: the Moon is in Cancer
A picnic near a body of water might be a good way to spend some time these two days. The sign Cancer rules both food and water; the Moon also rules water.

When reading this weekly horoscope, check your astrology chart to find which house (section of your chart) has the current Moon sign on the cusp (the beginning edge) & apply forecast information to that area of your life as well. For example, if the Moon is in Leo and one of the suggestions is to entertain – however Leo is located in the 12th house of your chart, which is an inward energy place…then have a small, quiet gathering. By contrast, if Leo is located in the 1st house of your chart, an outward energy place…have a party! It is also interesting to note when the current Moon is in the same sign as your birth Moon and to see how the flavor of that day carries through the following 30 days.

Current Asteroid Transits:
Ceres – this asteroid is associated with giving yourself lots of care as well as nurturing others. Be sure that someone is not taking advantage of you during this process.
Pallas – this asteroid rules wisdom & purity of action in your vocation. Carefully examine your vocation/avocation to see how well it meets your needs (or how well you fit within its parameters).
Juno – one of the things that Juno rules is love partnerships, and one of the things that Leo rules is romance. So put the two together and something could be happening.
Vesta – gather information about something you really love, something you have always really loved.
Chiron – release pent-up anger; chart a new course for yourself.

Note: Weekly horoscope timeframes for Moon signs, void-of-course periods, and current planet & asteroid positions are noted for Eastern time zone (USA). Please adjust according to your own location. Times are not given if the void-of-course Moon occurs for a very short period or if it occurs during the night (based on same Eastern time zone).

∗Mercury Retrograde – the speed of the planet slows down considerably. Communications, paperwork, electronics, traffic and mail can become very mixed-up, delayed, or go on the ‘fritz’ during this time. A situation will be in the process of changing, so wait until Mercury is direct (resumes its regular speed) to finalize anything. In general, maintain a slower, more cautious pace in daily affairs. Always allow at least two days before (to slow down) and after (to resume regular activities) a Mercury retrograde period. (Read More about Mercury Retrograde including Direct & In Station)

*Venus Retrograde – just like Mercury, the speed of the planet slows down considerably. Relationships, especially love relationships, will likely be more in the background than upfront. Take it easy with expressed feelings of that nature and agree to address any concerns after Venus goes Direct. (See info about Mercury Direct & In-Station and apply that to Venus when appropriate.)

*Mars Retrograde – just like Mercury, the speed of the planet slows down considerably. Decisions and actions will be more difficult to implement. Avoid confrontations. Be careful about cuts & burns. (See info about Mercury Direct & In-Station and apply that to Mars when appropriate.)

**Total Lunar Eclipse – when the Moon appears to be completely covered.
**Partial Lunar Eclipse – the Full Moon is not completely covered.
**Lunar Eclipse/A – Appulse, a penumbral eclipse, the Moon enters only the penumbral of the earth. (penumbral = shadowy, partial shadow, marginal area)
