Astrology Forecast September 30 – October 6, 2024
The week begins today with a mix of intense and motivating energies as the Moon in Virgo opposes Saturn in Pisces. This aspect can make us feel a bit constrained or burdened by responsibility, creating an urge to retreat into overthinking or self-criticism.
Fortunately, the Moon’s sextile to Mars in Cancer will provide a balancing boost of emotional drive and determination. You’ll find the energy to tackle your tasks, especially those related to home, health and nurturing. It’s an excellent time to focus on practical matters and get things done, even if you feel some inner resistance or self-doubt.
The Moon’s sesquiquadrate with Pluto however may add an undercurrent of intensity that brings deep-seated emotions to the surface. You may feel a bit edgy or sensitive, but this energy can be channeled into transformative work. Use this energy influence to identify and release any emotional patterns that may be holding you back.
As the Moon enters Libra on Tuesday, the energy shifts from Virgo’s meticulous, detail-oriented focus to Libra’s desire for balance, harmony, and connection. After a somewhat intense and self-critical start to the week, this shift brings a refreshing breath of calm. You may feel a stronger pull toward social interactions, partnership and finding balance in your life. This influence is ideal for seeking compromise, engaging in creative pursuits, or simply enjoying a more peaceful atmosphere.
Wednesday’s annual solar eclipse during a Libra New Moon brings an opportunity to reset our relationships and seek harmony in areas of life that may feel out of sync. Libra’s energy emphasizes diplomacy, fairness, and the pursuit of inner peace. You may feel a strong urge to confront imbalances, whether in personal relationships, work, or your own sense of self.
Astrology Forecast September 9 – 15, 2024
As Mercury enters Virgo, you may find yourself craving order and clarity more than usual. This shift is likely to inspire a detail-oriented mindset, making it an excellent time to tackle tasks that require precision and careful analysis.
You may feel a strong urge to reorganize your environment, eliminate clutter and streamline your routine. Communication could become more pragmatic and concise as Mercury in Virgo emphasizes logic over emotion. Use this energy to express your ideas clearly and thoughtfully so that every word counts.
However, this transit can also bring a heightened sense of perfectionism. While it’s beneficial to strive for excellence, be careful not to become overly critical of yourself or others. There’s a danger of getting bogged down in the details, which can lead to stress or anxiety. Balance is key.
Use the energy of Virgo to increase productivity and improve your skills, but remember to make room for flexibility and compassion. It’s a great time to pay attention to detail, but don’t let the pursuit of perfection hinder your progress.
Today’s astrological aspects of the Moon in Scorpio opposing Uranus in Taurus, followed by a trine to Neptune in Pisces, and finally a sextile to Pluto in Capricorn will add layers of emotional intensity and depth to the influence of Mercury entering Virgo.
The opposition between the Moon and Uranus can create unexpected disruptions and emotional turbulence, potentially upsetting the desire for order and routine brought about by Mercury in Virgo. You may experience sudden mood swings or a sense of restlessness, making it difficult to stick to your plans. This aspect encourages you to embrace change and find new ways to approach your tasks, even if they seem disruptive at first.
Astrology Forecast August 19 – 25, 2024
Today’s Aquarius Full Moon is known as a Supermoon. Supermoons occur when the full moon coincides with the moon being at the point in its orbit closest to Earth.
This full moon may inspire us to embrace new ideas and approaches, encouraging us to think outside the box and challenge the status quo. It’s a good time to focus on technological advances or unconventional solutions to problems.
We could feel a strong pull to work on community projects or to advocate for social justice. This full moon emphasizes the importance of collective well-being and may inspire you to contribute to causes that benefit the greater good.
Because it’s a supermoon, the emotional impact will be more intense. You may experience heightened feelings or revelations about your personal goals, relationships, or your role in the larger community. This can lead to significant breakthroughs or changes in personal perspective. You may feel a stronger desire to express your true self and make changes that are more in line with your true desires and values.
The Moon’s conjunction with Lilith amplifies this influence, prompting a deeper exploration of your emotional truths and personal freedoms. The semi-sextile aspects between Venus and Lilith, and between the Moon and Venus, also predict opportunities to align your emotional experiences with your values and desires. There may be a focus on reconciling your deeper emotional needs with your social or relational expectations, allowing for a more balanced approach to love and beauty.
Astrology Forecast August 12 – 18, 2024
A Half Moon in Scorpio may increase your drive to tackle emotional or psychological challenges today.
You may feel the urge to deal with things you’ve been avoiding or to make significant changes in your life. It can be a powerful time for personal growth and transformation, especially if you’re willing to face uncomfortable truths or delve into deeper emotional work.
The Moon quincunx Jupiter will add an extra layer of complexity to this transit, highlighting the need for inner alignment and adjustment. It’s an opportunity to reconcile emotional needs with your broader goals, and to navigate any internal conflicts with flexibility and openness.
Overall, it could be a Monday that feels particularly intense or charged, making it a powerful day to focus on what’s truly important to you and to take decisive action in alignment with your deeper values and goals.
The intensity will continue tomorrow with the combination of a Sagittarius Moon with the Moon sextile Pluto in Aquarius and the Moon square Mercury in Virgo, bringing together a dynamic mix of emotional exploration, deep transformation, and potential communication challenges.
Overall, this combination of transits suggests a time of significant emotional and intellectual activity, with the potential for deep personal growth tempered by challenges in communication and understanding. It’s a good time to work on aligning your emotional insights with practical communication strategies, harnessing the transformative energy while being mindful of potential misunderstandings.
Astrology Forecast August 5 -11, 2024
Two astrologically significant events are occurring today as Mercury goes retrograde and the Moon enters Virgo. Their combined effects will be powerful, especially since Monday is traditionally ruled by the Moon.
Because of this dual cosmic influence, we can expect heightened scrutiny, reflection, and possible frustration with communication and organization during the first two days of the week.
The Virgo Moon’s emphasis on detail and order may clash with the communication disruptions of Mercury retrograde, possibly leading to frustration over minor mistakes or inefficiencies.
There could also be a tendency to overanalyze emotions and personal interactions, given Virgo’s critical nature and Mercury retrograde’s propensity for misunderstanding.
We may also experience increased introspection and emotional analysis, possibly leading to insights or resolutions from the past, albeit with some emotional turbulence.
Tomorrow’s Virgo Moon square Mars in Gemini is likely to further fan the flames of misunderstanding and emotional upheaval, with impatience, agitation, and people being more argumentative than usual. Today and tomorrow is a time to be patient and emotionally centered, double-checking details and staying grounded as we navigate through potential challenges for the rest of the week.
Astrology Forecast July 29 – August 4, 2024
The week begins this morning with the Moon in a moody semisextile aspect to Chiron and a semisquare to the Node, causing us to feel more emotionally sensitive and introspective, with a hint of tension about our path forward.
Pay attention to subtle inner cues, as these can offer profound insights into personal growth and understanding. You may feel a slight tug between past patterns and future aspirations this morning, requiring a balanced approach to resolution. Trust your intuition and consider how your actions align with your long-term goals.
Fortunately, the Sun’s quintile to the Moon later this morning offers a spark of creative inspiration and emotional clarity. This aspect enhances your ability to express yourself authentically and creatively, paving the way for positive interactions and innovative solutions.
This week we can expect to feel the pre-shadow effects of Mercury going retrograde on Sunday. As it is, Mercury is already slowing down to retrace its steps through the degrees it will later revisit during retrograde.
We may begin to notice miscommunication, delays, and technological glitches even before the official retrograde period begins next week. The pre-shadow phase sets the stage for retrograde, and being aware of it can help you prepare and manage its potential effects more effectively. If you have not already done so, now is the time to back up all your data and update your computer and smartphone.
Astrology Forecast July 8 – 14, 2024
Venus weaves much of her lovely magic this week through several planetary aspects and a major transit. Get ready for a heightened focus on relationships, pleasure, and creative self-expression – but with a twist or two!
Today, Venus in Cancer sextiles Uranus in Taurus, infusing the start of the week with unexpected yet positive emotional and relational shifts.
It will be a great day for creatives and innovators, as creative endeavors flourish with innovative ideas and unique expressions that add a spark to routine tasks or projects.

Thursday Venus reigns supreme as she casts several sensual spells on us, so buckle up! Thursday morning Venus trine Neptune, together with Moon sextile Venus, brings a wave of dreamy idealism, romantic vibes and a harmonious blend of emotions and desires. We’ll feel naturally affectionate and receptive to love, making it easier to connect with others and openly express our feelings.
We’ll see the world (and potential partners) through rose-colored glasses, fostering compassion, creativity and a desire for beauty. It will be a good time to connect with our artistic talents, embrace forgiveness, and let intuition guide us toward love that feels divinely inspired.
