Horoscopes: September 11th thru the 18th
For the week of September 11th thru the 18th, be sure to read your Rising Sign as well:
Aries
If you have been feeling particularly frustrated lately at the lack of progress or influence you can make in the world. Put that aside. At least for now. Rather than focusing on what you cannot accomplish, or who you are unable to influence, focus on those things that you can do. As Jupiter stations this weekend it is daring you to allow seeds of positivity to germinate in your soul. To even become excited for what could possibly be. There may even be an opportunity or an offer in the works. And despite Mars being retrograde until November, Jupiter is daring to propel things forward in just the sort of way that will begin to restore your confidence and optimism. Something is falling into place. You may not be able to take advantage of it right away, but the pieces are all coming together. In some way you are being asked to look more confidently to the future. Use the New Moon on the 17th to plot your course.
Taurus
One thing that may become apparent this week, is that in order to expand your opportunities, sometimes you need to take a few risks and chances. Sometimes you need to shake things up a little. It has been found that even small changes. Even minor adjustments in our lives, have this way of opening us up to greater possibilities. You move that couch over to the other side of the room, and all of a sudden you have this whole new perspective. That could be a little of what it feels like to have Jupiter stationing direct in Capricorn. In some way you are being asked to look at things from another point of view. This may mean having to suspend your current or previously held judgments. But in the process you are becoming increasingly aware that there is this whole world out there, just waiting to be explored. And it’s aiming to blow your mind. Use the New Moon on the 17th, to focus, plan, and pay attention to the details. These will help to get you where you want to go.
Gemini
Now that Jupiter will be moving forward again, it could help to alleviate some of the burden. Perhaps your partner gets a job, is able to contribute more, or is more willing to help out in some wonderful way. Or perhaps your credit increases allowing you to take out that loan for the car/renovation/venture that you had planned but previously had to shelve. Or maybe that check you had been hoping for finally comes through. Curiously, there could also be a feeling of finality, recognizing that as one door closes, another is opening up before you, with the added promise of rewards and opportunities for the future. Sometimes when Jupiter stations direct it can bring a surge of busyness. Use the New Moon on the 17th to focus and stabilize all of that energy, so that you can direct and channel it in a way that is constructive and useful.
Cancer
Since December Jupiter has been conspiring to bring you in alignment with those people and circumstances that will allow you to fulfill your big vision or dream for the future. The years that Jupiter is in Capricorn, are usually the best years for you to meet your best people. And if you were having issues with others before Jupiter came on the scene in December, Jupiter just has this way of alleviating those issues. This is when the right people just seem to find each other. This is also true for any partnership or close association: counselors, therapists, lawyers, mentors even best friends. And now that Jupiter will appear to be moving direct again, you will come to appreciate having them around. It really helps to have these special allies on your side. If only for the moral support they bring (and maybe a little expertise and experience). It will make it that much less overwhelming, and so much more rewarding.
Leo
The New Moon in Virgo on the 17th is also about coming to have a deeper appreciation for what you do, the services you have to offer, and how well these are or are not valued by others. Now that Jupiter will be moving forward again, situations in and around your work should become much more fulfilling. Maybe you are given the free time to do what you really want to do. Or perhaps you land an even better job that will bring in better pay, or chances for advancement later on. Maybe the word gets out that you have a particularly awesome service to offer. Jupiter is trying to enrich your daily life in some way. It is also daring to improve your general well-being. We are still in Virgo season thru the 22nd, which is a sign that lends itself well to general self-improvement. What does it mean for you to live a healthier, more organized, better managed life and lifestyle?
Virgo
Many of you have already had your birthdays. But for those Virgo’s (or those who have 22-28º of Virgo Rising) who have their birthday on or around the 17th, your new year is being ushered in with a New Moon. This is a fabulous augury for establishing new beginnings and creating a plan for the future that you know you can live with. This New Moon is also about becoming more serious and committed in a romantic relationship. For those of you who are parents, or thinking about becoming one, this is when you think in terms of creating some sort of plan concerning them. And for those who may have been considering turning a hobby into an avocation, or perhaps something more serious than that, this is when the conditions seem to fall into place in order to allow you to do so. Mars is still retrograde until November. But in the mean time you will still be able to make some progress, provided you carefully place one foot in font of the other. Instead of focusing on what is not possible right now. Focus on what you can do. Success can be built upon these small achievements.
Libra
Many a Libra has been seriously thinking about what home looks like for them. This is because it is so important for you all to ground yourselves. That could include divesting yourself of properties that may have become more than you had bargained for. You want to simplify your life, free it up in some way. And now that Jupiter is stationing direct, you could finally find a way to do just that. Wanting to sell? Maybe you finally find that buyer. Wanting to buy or move? Something finally falls in your lap. You are thinking long term here. And if you are happy with where you are situated, look for ways to make your living situation more of a home. A place where you know you can feel settled, safe and secure for the long term. A place and environment where you feel well supported. For this will serve you well into the future.
Scorpio
For Scorpio, the station of Jupiter is asking you to expand your mind, and expand your prospects. Jupiter stations can raise your expectations and hopes for the future, as the pieces of your life seem to be falling into place. However this will not be without a certain amount of hard labor and planning which could leave you in an exhausted heap when all is said and done. Take your time and be organized. Take on one chore at a time. One of the problems with Jupiter is that it can leave you feeling over-committed and wondering if you are coming or going. Keep your obligations within perspective. And use the Virgo New Moon on the 17th to create a clear and manageable plan. Like a road map. You will want to figure out where you want to go, and how far you will want to drive each day. Pace yourself. Rome was not built in a day.
Sagittarius
Now that your ruling planet, Jupiter, is going to appear to move forward once again, so are your financial prospects. Hampered by the weight of recent events, and being retrograde since May, it would have been difficult to follow through with your plans. But combined with the New Moon on the 17th, you could be getting the green light to finally proceed. All the bits and pieces are finally coming together. And once all the conditions come into alignment, your path will be ready to unfold. Your planet Jupiter wants to promote growth, and anything you value has the potential to grow at this time. This may require having to take some risks. And risks can go in either direction. Therefore lay out a clear plan with the pragmatic New Moon in Virgo. Look at your long term goals. But also consider all the details and short term goals that will be required to achieve those goals. Your future awaits.
Capricorn
Jupiter represents our big vision and hope for the future, and lucky for you, Jupiter has been attempting to shower Capricorn with blessings all year. However, weighed down by Pluto and Saturn this year, and retrograde since May that vision may have been temporarily curtailed by extenuating circumstances. However, some plans that had been prudently put on hold earlier this year, may now be able to proceed. And that is despite anything else that is brewing and seething on the back burner. Jupiter traveling in your sign has been asking you to grow in some very relevant ways. To even grow beyond your previous expectations of yourself. And to also have faith that despite any frustrations and ominous premonitions, things will be okay. There should now be some excitement just beginning to germinate. Let it. Use the New Moon on the 17th to re-set your Big Vision for the future. May that serve as your guiding light moving forward.
Aquarius
All that you’ve been learning over the past year has been very important for your emotional and psychological well-being. Stuff that you’ve been trying to avoid, and not wanting to deal with, were left to languish in the background. But since Jupiter has been on the scene, your internal landscape has been shifting. And all that stuff you’ve been trying to avoid? You may be wondering what all the fuss was all about in the first place. Now that Jupiter is stationing direct this weekend, it could even feel like everything is going to be all right with the world once again. That you can dare to hope. Perhaps even dream. But Jupiter is daring you to do something a little bit more than that. Little by little he’s been breaking down walls, and rules, and strictures that have been limiting you. It is time to break free in some remarkable way. One thing that you become aware of in the years that Jupiter is in Capricorn, is that freedom has more to do with your state of mind, than it does with your outward circumstances.
Pisces
Now that you have made some achievements in a certain direction, you may be thinking about what the next step may be. Thinking about further promoting yourself or what you do? Perhaps you have been awarded with a promotion or a raise, that will bring you on to the next step of your journey. Trying to reach a broader audience? Take advantage of any connections you can now make. Now that your traditional ruler Jupiter is stationing direct, it could open the way for further progress, opportunities and recognition in your field. This could also mean being in a better position to help others along the way. Know that any help or support given to others will be multiplied and reciprocated. Your world is daring to get just little bit larger. Sometimes when Jupiter stations it can bring a flurry of activity and excitement. Use the New Moon on the 17th to ask for help setting specific goals, grounding yourself, and channelling all of that energy in a more efficient and organized manner.
