As we enter the last days of summer we will experience the energy of Pluto in the last degree of Capricorn for the last time in our lives.  This will last through November 19, 2024.  Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008 and began the transformation of our structures and foundations.  You will have one last time to make the changes that are necessary to move forward with new goals.  Uranus will retrograde on the first day of September.  Uranus in Taurus, while it is retrograde , could bring some suspenseful events regarding resources, nature, weather, earth changes, money, harmony, love and comfort.  The new moon in Virgo is made for intentions regarding your daily routines, rituals, service to others, health and work duties. The ruler of Virgo, Mercury, is now direct and will be helpful with planning, understanding and communicating.  At this time, music can help you connect with a new vision.  The Sun in Virgo will oppose Saturn in Pisces from the 6th through the 8th of the month.  This is an energy of tension between your daily routines and the weaknesses that may undermine your efforts. During this time it would benefit you to make notes about any frustrations you may be experiencing.  This will also be a time that you decide to rid yourself of a bad habit or addiction. A full moon/lunar eclipse on September 18, 2024 will give us some insight to the nodal changes that take place in January 2025. Completing or releasing during this full moon energy could return to you during the 18 month nodal transit through the Pisces/Virgo axis starting next year, so it is advised that you release only that which you want to return. Uranus retrograde in Taurus is also making a trine to the Sun during this full moon which will reflect surprising moments of reflection or realization.  The Sun will make an opposition to Neptune a few days later which could make you question some of the decisions or actions you have taken.  Clarity can be gained with attention to the details of contracts, agreements, plans and compromise.  During the last week of September, the Sun  will move into Libra, Venus will move into Scorpio and Mercury enters Libra.  Our focus will be on relationships, justice, aesthetics and balance.  Mercury will help us understand, interpret and communicate our feelings about our relationships or agreements.  Venus in Scorpio represents the dark feminine.  We can become obsessed with power, money and sex.  The key to getting the most from this transit will require a brutally honest look at your own agenda.  Clarity will be gained in relationships and legal agreements as the Sun and Mercury make a conjunction in Libra on the last day of September.​
