18th September - 24th September 2023: Weekly Sidereal Astrology Forecast

This week on Monday the 18th of September the Sun enters practical, detail-orientated and organised Virgo, grounding our energy after the eventful and fiery Leo season. Click here to read more about Virgo season for 2023.

With the Sun now in Virgo, the harmonious trine aspect to Uranus is bringing an energy of positive, brilliant and revolutionary change to the way we organise, analyse, plan, learn and improve things. We are being driven towards new and improved routines and also to find a more unique and humanitarian approach to help and serve others. In addition to Uranus, the Sun in Virgo is also trine Pluto in Sagittarius. This aspect is helping us to find a more balanced sense of control over our obsessive nature and personally set expectations when it comes to perfectionism and rigid structures and routines. This trine is aiding us in letting go of the hard facts and tangible evidence of results and instead finding faith. This faith brings freedom through the ability to trust in the divine and more subtle energies beyond the earthly five senses. However, we are currently prone to self-illusion with Neptune in Pisces opposing the Sun in Virgo. Our imagination and dreams are challenging and causing confusion about our tangible reality and experience. During this time it is beneficial to journal in order to put your abstract ideas and thoughts into words thus forming a bridge between your mental and physical planes of existence.

Furthermore, you may find some challenges in the arena of your studies/interests conflicting with your responsibilities and duties. Do you find difficulty integrating what you know and love to learn about into your career or general responsibilities and work commitments? This aspect calls for an assessment on this and a re-evaluation of how you can strengthen the connection between your professional goals and aspirations with your knowledge, interests and mental capabilities.

For the brief time that the Moon in Virgo is conjunct Mars in Virgo our emotions and desires are greatly heated and passionate. With Virgo being the flavour of this conjunction, our internal emotions are seeking to be grounded and to be channelled in a practical and organised way. This means we are collectively feeling and desiring in a passionate and powerful but also clear and methodical way.

Venus the planet of love and beauty is in the intuitive waters of Cancer and squaring (challenging) abundant and philosophical Jupiter. This is a hard aspect between two benefic planets which naturally eases the harsh impact of the square. This is an ongoing aspect ranging a few weeks which is still present in our sky this week. This transit brings to the forefront the truth of our relationships and values. If our relationships or values are restrictive and inhibit freedom, this is then being shown to us so that we may heal this possible issue. Our current beliefs about ourselves, our values, what we are attracted to and our relationships are being challenged in order to bring more clarity and authenticity to these areas of our life.

Overall, this week we are beginning to bring order to our life through organisation, working to balance our dreams with our reality and healing our belief system surrounding our relationships and values.

Have a beautiful week everyone and thank you for your ongoing support.

Yours truly,
