September isn’t a meek visitor, but rather one who rearranges the furniture while you’re sleeping. By the time you notice, the whole house feels different. With two eclipses bookending the Pisces-Virgo axis, September’s theme is unmistakable: endings that liquefy the intangible, married with beginnings that reshape and root in the practical.

The month opens with Saturn’s retrograde return to Pisces on September 1st, dragging us back to lessons about boundaries, faith, and the karma of responsibility. On September 6th, Uranus turns retrograde in Gemini, stirring restless questions about how quickly the world is changing, and whether we’re changing fast enough to keep up with it.

The Pisces Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse on September 7th is the first shockwave. Eclipses in Pisces dissolve, washing away identities, illusions, or storylines that no longer fit. If this phase feels messy, that’s the point; clarity during watery lunar eclipses often breaks apart and floats to the surface in fragments.

By mid-month, Mercury shifts gears, moving into Virgo on September 2nd and Libra on September 18th. Communication sharpens, first in the fine print of routines, then in the delicate balance of relationships. On September 19th, Venus enters Virgo, grounding pleasure in practical devotion.

The Virgo New Moon and Solar Eclipse on September 21st marks a pivotal point: a chance to rewrite the systems that shape everyday life, syncing health and work with nourishing rituals built to survive any storm. What peels away now makes room for structures that actually sustain you in the long term.

Finally, on September 22nd, Mars enters Scorpio, the Sun steps into Libra, and the season tilts toward power and symmetry. It’s a blend of rough work and refinement with the decaying mess of eclipse season and the dignity of the descent into fall braided together. September reminds us: transformation is never clean, but it is always precise, and can be trusted to be precisely on time.

September Legend:

September 1st: Saturn retrograde enters Pisces
September 2nd: Mercury enters Virgo
September 6th: Uranus turns retrograde in Gemini
September 7th: Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse in Pisces
September 18th: Mercury enters Libra
September 19th: Venus enters Virgo

August hums with the strange electricity of late summer. We can feel that something beyond the season is beginning to fade toward an ending, but none of us is entirely sure what that is yet. It’s a transitional month, subtle in some ways and sharp in others, with most of the movement churning just beneath the surface. Think of it less as a chaotic plot twist and more like a software update that installs while you’re asleep. You don’t remember choosing it, but when you wake up, your entire operating system is different.

The momentum begins with Mars entering Libra on August 6th, activating tension in the relational field. Mars doesn’t love being forced to fight politely in Libra, which can either sharpen our diplomacy skills or drive us to passive-aggressive madness. Expect some friction around fairness, beauty, and who’s doing all the work.

On August 9th, an Aquarius Full Moon lights up the realm of collective vision, chosen communities, and your weirdest, most futuristic truths. This lunar cycle has the flavor of an emotional download: sudden insight breaking open—or the realization that you’re not quite who you were six months ago—echoes loud and clear.

Mercury stations direct in Leo on August 11th, finally unclogging our creative and expressive channels. If your voice has felt muffled lately (by doubt, fear, or sheer exhaustion), this is where it starts to improve again. Say what you mean, especially if it’s tender.

Then the Sun enters Virgo on August 22nd, followed by a Virgo New Moon on the 23rd, ushering in a season of edits, rituals, and repair. Virgo energy doesn’t need fanfare; it simply wants things to function correctly. Don’t be fooled by the muted nature of Virgo—this lunation is a mighty one for transforming your body, your schedule, and your every sacred little system.

Venus glides back into Leo on August 25th, helping you romanticize your evolution, and on August 28th, a dreamy Uranus-Neptune sextile opens the psychic door to possibility. The temperate, strange magic in this last sliver of August is subtle enough to go unnoticed if you don’t slow down and taste it.

August Legend:

August 6th: Mars enters Libra
August 9th: Full Moon in Aquarius
August 11th: Mercury turns direct in Leo, Saturn sextile Uranus
August 22nd: the Sun enters Virgo
August 23rd: New Moon in Virgo
August 25th: Venus enters Leo
August 28th: Uranus sextile Neptune

July arrives like a message in a bottle, equal parts revelation and release. With Venus and Uranus entering Gemini on July 4th and 7th, there’s an unmistakable buzz in the air. Conversations spark, ideas ricochet, and the radical urge to connect, reinvent—or revolt—feels electric. But beneath the surface, something more sacrosanct is stirring.

Neptune, Saturn, and Chiron all turn retrograde in Aries this month at different points, urging us to pause and reflect on the identities we’ve been constructing, consciously or not, and also whether they still hold any meaning. These slow-turning retrogrades soften the ego and expose our aching astral bodies. It takes courage to slow down and tend what’s been buried under scar tissue, but we won’t have a choice.

The Capricorn Full Moon on July 10th delivers a moment of no-nonsense reckoning. We’re asked to check the architecture of our ambitions: Do the goals we’re building still hold the weight of our true desires?

The usual scripts stop working as Mercury stations retrograde in Leo on July 18th. We’re rewriting how we express ourselves, shine, and love. A Leo New Moon on July 24th offers a clean slate for personal radiance, but only if it’s rooted in honesty. By month’s end, Venus slips into Cancer (July 30th), reminding us that sweetness isn’t weakness, and tenderness is its own kind of power.

June’s astrology invites us to feed the foundational roots of our dreams in the soft soil of becoming. After months of shakeups, initiations, and hard-won clarity, June welcomes a stretch that supports the integration of new hopes, relationships, and identities.

Venus enters steady Taurus on June 6th, coaxing us to slow down and touch grass. Lean into pleasures that soothe the nervous system, beauty that lasts, and unrushed devotion. Haste makes waste.

The mood gets extra tender and emotionally intelligent mid-month, as Mercury and Jupiter splash into Cancer on June 8th and 9th, followed by the Sun on June 20th. On June 25th, a New Moon in Cancer brings a potent emotional reset with the potential to heal deep wounds connected to childhood and safety. Cancer season’s crabby cluster reminds us that the body keeps score and that the future isn’t just built, but nurtured. There is softness in strength. Why muscle through life when you can give yourself kind compassion?

But before that, a Full Moon in Sagittarius on June 11th offers a moment of clarity and release via a burst of truth. Leaps of faith are more than supported with a golden net, reminding you of the wisdom gained in taking risks and the thrills that give life meaning and dimension. Things are bound to “click” and open into expansion, especially if you’ve been playing small.

Mars enters Virgo on June 17th, sharpening instincts and inviting us to clean up, edit down, or get real about what’s actually working. Mercury enters bold, radiant Leo on June 26th, asking that we speak from the heart with more courage, color, and fewer apologies.

Though one of the best months in the year for bearing the fruits of our long labors (and yes, manifestations), taking bold steps to protect your sense of safety is not beyond the realm of possibility this May.

Material stability and practical planning are top of mind once Mercury enters grounded Taurus on May 10th, supported by the Sun luxuriously rooted in the sign of the Bull. A Scorpio Full Moon occurs two days later on May 12th, pulling us down into the subterranean world of behind-the-scenes power dynamics influencing a sense of control, surrender, and safety. Though intense, avoid shying away from plunging depths that otherwise might feel crushing; this is a concentrated moment for strategic moves that could secure your footing for years to come. Stability is a capable foundation, but it should be approached with the honest clarity and determination associated with Scorpio energies.

Raw desire is the bold outline for all of our actions on May 22nd, when Venus in Aries aligns with Mars in Leo, sparking wild confidence, passion, and perhaps the unexpected delights of romantic attention. This is the day to say yes to heart-racing intrigue and adventure.

Karmic Saturn dips into Aries on May 24th, staying put through the summer until September 1st. This three-month transit delivers a fresh batch of life lessons centered around self-worth, courage, and individuality. Feeling torn between responsibility and desire is par for the course, challenging each of us to take risks in choosing authenticity. Mercury shifts into Gemini on May 25th, followed by a New Moon in Gemini on May 26th, easing any harsh truths with fresh, airy diplomacy.

The center cannot hold this April. The long, gunky stretch of retrogrades arresting the most personal planets bursts at a crescendo, setting off a cycle of intense release. After the fire and flood, April regains the precious balance lost in the previous season, reminding us that everything is a temporary test shaping one’s internal terrain.

Mercury turns direct in Pisces on April 7th, followed by Venus also turning direct in Pisces on April 12th, quenching the soul of our self-worth with sensitive confidence and idealism. Synchronicities speak with authority as a cycle of missed opportunities and false starts closes with an eye on authentic alignment, articulated by a Libra Full Moon on April 12th. As Earthlings, we have every reason to bask in hope, believing in life, love, and the will to pull out the good from every damp darkness and singed disappointment.

Talk is anything but cheap this month, with Mercury entering Aries on April 16th and Mars diving head-first into Leo on April 18th, ready to speak your most delusional aspirations into reality. Mars is confidently moving direct, in tandem with Mercury, totally unimpeded by a pesky, soul-sucking retrograde cycle. Actions taken with warm gusto and passion lead to success, deserved pride, and a sustaining joy that may have eluded us through a frustrating winter.

Green shoots of possibility sprout during the Taurus New Moon on April 27th, encouraging a life of secure physical and monetary stability and uncomplicated beauty. Planting supportive seeds now could lead to a lush summer garden. Mix your pragmatism with luxury.

April Legend:

As soon as the world’s wheels were pried out of a muddy Mars retrograde lasting nearly three months, a second—and third—planetary retrograde grinds into the machinery of March, with less than a week of grace in between. This month hosts Venus and Mercury’s overlapping retrogrades amid the first pair of major eclipses in 2025, punctuated by the spring equinox (if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere) and the dawn of an astrological new year. Whew, take a breath.

On March 1st, Venus wrings into a retrograde phase lasting through April 12th. But where Mars spent weeks dragging through Cancer with slow, soggy intensity, Venus will blaze backward in bold firebrand Aries. Over roughly six weeks, Venus grants a rare opportunity to slash through blunders in judgment regarding our values. An earnest and unforgiving truth will torch blind spots that have hindered our capacity for love. Where enlightenment causes discomfort, empowerment is promised. Mercury will also be retrograde for most of Venus’s descent, from March 15th until April 7th, electrifying detailed strategy while stymying forward movement.

A Lunar Eclipse (and Full Moon) in Virgo occurs on March 14th as the year’s initiatory eclipse in a seasonal series. Dreams and delusions are stripped away, exposing reality in its original dirt and revealing a clean canvas to work with in the coming season. On March 29th, a Solar Eclipse (and New Moon) in Aries offers a chance to create from a seat of unique and unapologetic authenticity. What’s begun at the end of the month carries a singular potential for long-lasting success.

March Legend:

Poring over every dreamy detail on your vision board will not make things materialize this month. February is about making it happen by balancing action and expectations against willpower and commitment.

Venus charges into bold Aries on February 4th, sparking fearless confidence and a drive to conquer our desires. The thirst for success breeds action, increasing the pacing of critical events to a fever pitch. Passions rise during the Full Moon in Leo on February 12th, inviting us to take a wild (and possibly chaotic) ride peppered with plenty of surprises, inspiring creativity and fun.

Mars turns direct on February 23rd after a long, arduous retrograde phase. Stamina’s wick is slowly lit, and with Mars still in Cancer, we’ll know how to take steps to secure our emotional foundations. February wraps up with a New Moon in Pisces on the 27th. This lunation scintillates with a fresh wave of creativity and spiritual clarity, perfect for launching something soul-nourishing.

Welcome to 2025: Beginning with January, a month so unlike the exploding Champagne bottles of winter revelry and more like a weak flame struggling to stay lit in a damp breeze. Where brandishing proclamations of 2025 are cute, bold resolutions and expectations are in no environment to thrive. Instead, our best-laid plans fizzle until the nourishment of springtime pastures arrives in March. Take this liminal downtime to assess what was lacking last year and what you’ll need to succeed this year. What would you change, what’s in your power, and what can be given to the winter wind?

Mars retrograde continues, moving into Cancer on January 6th, with themes of safety, family, and security in focus until February 23rd. The Cancer Full Moon on January 13th highlights changes needed for emotional well-being as a family unit or household. Facing the unchangeable in relatives and family dynamics can feel like a gauntlet.

A Venus-Saturn conjunction in Pisces on January 18th evokes a powerplay redolent of Beauty and the Beast, lending love a serious tone. The difference between fantasy and reality is plain to see when approaching relationships with maturity, responsibility, and a touch of optimism. The task isn’t perfection but reaching balance and compromise.

A New Moon in Aquarius on January 29th sparks a quest for bold, innovative ways to improve our lives. With Uranus stationing direct on January 30th, breakthroughs come fast. It may not be time to act on materializing our realities until March breathes whispers of spring, but we can get excited about visualizing and shaping the future.

In Russian folklore, the heroine Vasilisa the Wise (or, the Beautiful, in some tellings) is sent to gather fire from the ancient and fearsome forest witch Baba Yaga, who invites the young Vasilisa into her famously chicken-legged home to gift the inexperienced maiden a flaming skull of wisdom. After many bizarre and tumultuous trials, that is. Looking at December’s astrology is like assessing Vasilisa’s fairytale tribulations, full of the delicacies of managing fire.

Truth-seeking is the foundation of the month’s unfolding, established by a Sagittarius New Moon on December 1st. Whether warmed by the glow of truth or burnt by its ruthlessness, the images and illusions revealed carry long shadows. Our internal fire becomes unpredictable when Mars turns retrograde on December 6th, ushering a period of strange focus and exhaustion lasting through February 2025. You may feel totally extinguished in one area of life as a savage and destructive burn consumes you in another. The only reasonable response is surrendering to the flames as the forest to a wildfire. Sitting it out in physical solitude and brisk workouts can be reasonable responses to a Martian temper tantrum, which almost always carries a somatic weight.

Mercury stations direct on December 15th, working out a knot in the month’s strained muscular system. A Gemini Full Moon occurs on the same day, lending dynamism to thought essential for problem-solving and logical empathy. A second New Moon in the month—commonly called a “black moon”—winds down the year on December 30th in the sign of Capricorn. This is a surprisingly forgiving lunation honoring careful planning and rootedness as the keys to sure-footed success.

December Legend:

December 1: New Moon in Sagittarius
December 6: Mars turns retrograde in Leo
December 7: Venus enters Aquarius, Neptune turns direct in Pisces
December 15: Full Moon in Gemini, Mercury turns direct in Sagittarius
December 21: the Sun enters Capricorn
