It’s horoscope time! Check out what’s in store for you this month by reading through the larger themes of these September 2023 horoscopes, then finding your specific sign below.
The pewter shards of summer’s sharp light soften into the golden tilt of autumn as September creaks its hinges open to the fresh possibility of becoming who you are. Summer was no bed of roses. Instead, many awakened to the thorny awareness of imbalance and disrespect in our relationships and approach to giving and receiving love, both from ourselves and others. Ouch. But after a season spent confronting and tending to the sting of these emotional wounds, fall makes it clear that it’s time to unravel the bandages and get back on our feet.
A new resilience is the crown jewel of September when Venus finally stations direct in Leo onSeptember 3, solidified by a commitment to authenticity. We’ve had time to get clear and precise about our core values, and now we need to turn those standards into bold actions. Moving through the world with loud self-respect may jar critics. Some of us may be regarded as unwelcome strangers. Double ouch. What loving guidance would you give the children in your life when faced with the necessary trials of growth? Take your own advice, and above all remain loyal to your truest self.
Committing to loving yourself is certainly work, but it doesn’t have to feel like it. A new moon in Virgo onSeptember 14highlights the harvest of joy that is possible through acts of self-respect—inherent forms of self-care. Mercury turns direct in Virgo the very next day, ensuring that our boundaries and priorities are clearly articulated through our habits.
A full moon in Aries onSeptember 29ends the month with a few fiery and unpredictable curveballs. Again, consider this a test of self-growth. Whatever happens, dealing with it will likely be a solo job. An entrepreneurial spirit can only strengthen your resolve.
