What the stars say on September 5-11, 2022
Uncategorized September 9, 2022, Comments OffAugust 22 marked the beginning of Virgo Season, and it will continue until September 22. Virgos are deeply methodical and have a tendency to appear practical to a fault, but underneath the surface they are very sympathetic and humble. Every sign can benefit from this time by honing in on their inner Virgoian traits by focusing on their own health and wellness and taking this time to evaluate your self-care routine to make the best of it. Details are the most important part of a plan to the Virgo. Take the time to curate a specific work out list, or to perfect a yoga pose. Instead of looking at the big picture this month, look at the small ways you can improve your mental or physical health practices.
Here is a breakdown of what to expect for the week of September 5-11.
Aries (March 21 – April 19): Rams especially need to hone in on their self-care game this week. As high energy signs, make sure the activities you pick are both fun and challenging in order to keep your attention. Mercury will slip into Retrograde this week and will stay there until October 22, meaning Aries should watch out for sending mixed signals in relationships. Really evaluate what you want from a partner or friend before speaking the words out loud to avoid confusion or unnecessarily hurt feelings.
Taurus (March 22 – May 20): This week love is in the air for our Bulls! Whether you are single or partnered, be on the lookout for creative new ways to connect with your love interests. That could look like going to a new location to socialize and meet new people, or getting out of your comfort zone of charcuterie dinner at home for date night. Venus being in Virgo this week allows you to focus on you, Taurus. Take advantage of that and pamper yourself before any romantic endeavors.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20): This week your focus should be all about comfort. Let yourself relax a little and put off what isn’t an immediate need. Romance yourself a little this week with a bubble bath, an extra coffee on your way to class, or writing yourself a love note. Build up your mental defenses by taking those extra steps because the end of the week will bring Mercury into Retrograde in Libra and may throw you into an unshakeable funk. Having a post-it on your mirror telling you how wonderful you are may be the pickup you need.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22): Focusing on communication will be your greatest ally this week. This will lead you to some surprising new connections with kindred spirits. Cancers are notoriously closed off, but don’t write off these new connections so easily, they may be just what you need to get through Venus being in Virgo and the world focusing on relationships. The full moon is in Pisces on Saturday, which falls into your ninth house, your honesty house. This will allow you to look at other connections in your life that no longer serve you and step away from them.
Leo (July 23 – August 22): Leo, take a breath. Now do it again. You have been working hard the last six months and now is the time to rest. Turn your attention to the quality of your work instead of the quantity you are producing. Your adjustments will not go unnoticed nor underappreciated. Let yourself unplug from media and out of home relationships for a small time. Mercury in Retrograde in Libra, your third house, will urge you to focus on the power of your words. Choose them wisely.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22) This is your season! With Venus making its annual stop in Virgo you will find it easier than ever to connect with old friends and potential new ones. However, Venus can be flighty, so be on guard for those who would take advantage of your open heart this week. This is a time for you to be bold in your choices from fashion to career. Be alert to new opportunities, but selective on what you choose to pursue.
Libra (September 23 – October 22): Venus being in Virgo will ignite your inner creativity, which is where you thrive. Embrace this moment of motivation and push away your perfectionist tendencies. Mercury coming into Retrograde in your own house can have you feeling tongue-tied in key moments this week. It will be better to over rehearse or plan out what to say than to wing it and end up sending the wrong message. Making a mood board will help you center your thoughts and harness your creativity. The full moon in Pisces on Saturday will be the perfect time to prace your favorite self-care ritual.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21): You are full of reasons to ignore new connections, but this is a time to set aside your worries and embrace new relationships. You are well guarded for a reason, but by never letting anyone in you may miss out on key people you should have in your life. However, when approached with an invitation for a social event take the time to reflect on if you truly want to go, or if you are simply accepting to placate the person extending the invite. Keep your social calendar clear this week to make room for spontaneity and “me time”.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21): Take a moment to step away from your professional life and focus instead on your domestic life. You put your all into your work and it has paid off, but is your home a victim of this? You will notice feeling more energized this week due to Venus being in Virgo, take that opportunity to complete some home projects. Embracing this time of rest may help lead you down a more successful path in your professional or romantic life later this month. Remember, life is about balance.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19): Spending time close to home this week will prove a worthy venture for you. In your personal life, there may be a choice between the blissful and the practical. And now is the time to follow your bliss, Capricorn. In your professional life, however, err on the side of safety and caution. The full moon in Pisces at the end of the week will be a time for you to look at your big picture and re-evaluate where you want your paths to lead.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18): You tend to live by your own personal rules of conduct, and they have so far served you well. This week will challenge your rules and may call for a change. Go with this with an open heart. Take the time you need to focus on your code, and try to avoid making any large decisions during this time. Especially while Mercury is in Retrograde. You have made sacrifices and have worked hard over the last six months and after this full moon you will start to reap the benefits of your labors.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20): You have always been thought of as a hopeless romantic, and now is the time to embrace that title. While most of the year urges you to keep your idealism in check, this week is your time to shine and manifest what is truly in your heart. Use the full moon in your house to your advantage. Be cautious of Mercury being in Retrograde in Libra and think before you speak. This Retrograde is notorious for muddling messages and your romantic heart should not bear the burden of a mixed signal.
