SEPTEMBER 2021 ~
True wisdom comes from the overcoming of suffering and sin. All true wisdom is therefore touched with sadness.–Whittaker Chambers
Lest we forget – Remembering those we lost on September 11, 2001. In honoring their memory, we will remain true to our commitment to freedom and democracy.
Dear Readers,
As we approach the Fall Season we are once again reminded that change is forever constant. Just as nature sheds its older roots, so do we as humans. The purification process begins. The month ahead looks favorable, however as we approach Mercury retrograde we may begin to feel out of sorts as it creates mercurial confusion through speech, and everyday mental interaction. This particular period begins September 27, ending mid-October. The end of Summer, a turning point in our lives, change is in the air, hopefully all for the best!
New Moon in Virgo September 7, -affecting people born with planets in Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces most significantly.This particular New Moon will affected matters revolving around healthcare, specifically speaking with regard to ourselves or with regard to the masses. Since Virgo rules the earth this is all about grounding, feeling more centered, providing service, charity and giving back.
HARVEST FULL MOON SEPT , EMOTIONS RUN HIGH, YET VERY SWEET AND NOSTALGIC
The month opens up on September 20 , with the HARVEST FULL MOON transiting in the ethereal, sensitive, emotional sign of Pisces, emphasizing feelings, home, family and nostalgia in general. The question now is: what nurtures our soul? If we’re prone to extreme behaviors, this strong polarity of Pisces opposite the transiting Sun will reveal the addictive realities of our true nature as we begin to question ourselves. In other words, how do we use addictive behaviors to hide out from the deeper issues crawling up from the depths of the subconscious? This Full Moon in Pisces reinforces our ability to pay attention to our instincts, to dig deep, search from within.
SUN MOVES INTO THE VENUS-RULED SIGN OF LIBRA ON SEPT 23, 2021 – AN AHA MOMENT.
It’s time to celebrate the Fall Equinox as Fall is upon us and the Sun moves into the partnership sign of Libra. Relax and take in the beauty. The focus now is about balance – finding your Zen, creating harmony through relationships. On the Solar Wheel, Fall is when planets begin their hibernation, which feels to many as bittersweet. It’s a season of partnerships, collaboration (LIBRA), the end of things (Scorpio), and quest for inspiration and seeking out (Sagittarius). This months Sun transit in Libra in sync with transiting Saturn and Jupiter in Aquarius will create a feeling of balance
Mercury in retrograde from Sept 27 through October 18- rules all types of communication, including listening, speaking, learning, reading, editing, researching, negotiating, selling, and buying. Mercury also rules all formal contracts and agreements, as well as important documents such as book manuscripts or term papers, agreements, deeds, contracts, leases, wills, and so forth.
Mercury doesn’t actually move backward. It moves closer to the earth, therefore disrupting various forms of communication. When a planet retrogrades, astrologically it is in a resting or sleeping state. Therefore, while Mercury slows down, all forms of communication shifts into a sleep-mode. Ideas, thoughts, chat tends to get scrambled, or spins out of control. Not a good time to make major decisions, or to have major surgery unless there is not a choice. Since it is occurring in the sign of Libra, which rules Venus, which governs beauty and partnerships. Plastic Surgery? Not at this time. Starting a new business, or forming a new relationship? Going on a dating site? No. Hold off until October 18 – if possible. Those born under Virgo, Gemini and Libra are most affected. However wherever Mercury falls into your own chart based on time of birth indicates where you are affected.
