Horoscopes
Aries
The first half of the day is fantastic for making connections, personal appeal, and money matters, dear Aries. Today and tomorrow are good for scoping out a deal, but tonight, you could be too distracted by problem areas or work/health issues to tap into the energy in a useful way. This morning, you’ll find people are cooperative and willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and/or go along with your plans with little in the way of resistance. Tonight, tensions with work or small problems can distract you far too easily, but because your interests lie elsewhere, your attention is divided. You are benefiting from a sharper ability to focus on the details these days, but you could be taking this a little too far right now. Try to tune out some of the overthinking, if possible.
Taurus
You’ll find it easy to get family or co-workers to go along with your plans this morning, dear Taurus, and you’ll find you connect well with others. Your good humor now can attract opportunities later. While you are in a good general position for communicating with others smoothly these days, later today, you may be focusing too much on problem areas for conversations to flow well. There can be some tension or even suspicion or doubts raised, and it can be difficult to relax and unwind completely with so much on your mind. Do your best to take your mind off these troubles. Fortunately, you’re in good stead with family and close loved ones.
Gemini
You’re in a great position for making fortunate connections this morning through your pleasant communications and creative thinking, dear Gemini. You’re finding it easy to reach out to others in happy ways, and your personal appeal gets a nice boost through the positive gestures you’re making. The Moon moves into your sign late afternoon, and while you can be gung-ho now about your plans and about seeking out some much-needed “me” time, there can be a lot on your mind that makes this challenging, likely related to home and family. It makes sense to tune out distractions as much as possible so that you can focus on something important to you, but this will involve turning your mind “off,” which can be hard to do at the moment.
Cancer
The morning is healthy for shopping and business sense, dear Cancer. Although you can be a little too distracted or stressed tonight to benefit from it, you’ll have more of this energy tomorrow. You’re a good judge of value right now. This afternoon, the Moon moves into your privacy sector for a couple of days, signaling a need for down time, but it can be tough to relax just yet. You may be second-guessing an opinion, your studies, or a communication or news you received, looking for a hidden agenda or a deeper meaning. It can be difficult to turn your mind off enough to relax, but it’s better for you if you do! It’s likely a wild goose chase anyhow.
Leo
This can be a good day for making fortunate contacts through media, the phone, transit, or studies, dear Leo. You’re learning a lot of useful things these days, and while you may not be putting your skills into something productive just yet, this is a critical time for skills development and the gaining of knowledge that will serve you well down the road. There can be some tension today related to work, business, or money later today that can interfere with your desire to socialize and enjoy easygoing times. Watch for overthinking things now.
Virgo
The morning is strong for getting a better perspective or handle on money matters, Virgo. Even so, today can be a little awkward when it comes to the balance in a relationship. You may feel that you’re shouldering most or all the work and that others are slacking or not as committed as you. While Mercury in your sign again brings back your sharpness and alertness, tonight, however, something may be taken the wrong way entirely. Watch for a suspicious or negative turn of mind. There is a tendency to suspect that someone’s trying to pull one over on you.
Libra
There is a beautiful, flowing energy with you for connecting with friends or networking this morning, dear Libra. This is a generally good year for making valuable and fortunate contacts, and this week is particularly useful for this. Even so, this is a laid back and anonymous time for you overall, and you should honor the need to keep some things to yourself. Balancing your attention to your inner needs and to those of others is especially important for you as these can sometimes feel like the same thing and you forget who you’re pleasing in your attempts to keep the peace around you. Tonight, while the Moon moves into your adventure sector, it can be difficult to enjoy yourself with certain pressures weighing on your mind. Try to avoid overthinking things now.
Scorpio
This has been a good year for getting yourself on solid footing, dear Scorpio, and for enjoying time to yourself more than usual. This morning, you can draw upon your experience and wisdom to make a gain on a business or reputation matter. While this is a good time for enjoying friends and groups overall, today you could be feeling that people are not as reliable or committed as you’d like. As the day advances, a friendship matter that frustrates you can weigh heavily on your mind. There can be some tension if someone brings up an issue that leaves you feeling insecure or if you’re left to fill in the blanks. Guard your feelings but avoid jumping to conclusions.
Sagittarius
In the first half of the day, you’re in great shape for making connections and contacts, Sagittarius. You might feel unusually good finding someone with whom you share similar beliefs, ideals, and interests. Even so, with Mercury at the top of your solar chart, your thoughts often turn to your goals and ambitions, public image, and responsibilities. More than usual, you’re considering the impact you have on others, particularly with your words. In turn, your communications are taken more seriously. Business thinking is strong these days, but tonight, you may be overthinking things to the detriment of your social life or a partnership. Try not to harp on certain annoying details.
Capricorn
This is a good time for seeking out or attracting people who can help you get ahead in life or reach your goals, Capricorn. Breaking out of a rut is an active theme now, and today is no exception. You can rally up the support you need, particularly with higher-ups or people with whom you do business. Friends or partners are willing to talk things through and come up with solutions to problems. You’re in great shape for switching up your routine as it tends to refresh your thinking. Through it, you gain perspective. However, watch for overthinking things later today. There can be quite a bit of unnecessary tension surrounding personal opinions. Try not to take a difference of opinion as a personal slight.
Aquarius
The first half of the day finds you home-oriented but friendly and optimistic, Aquarius. You have a strong desire to be included and to enjoy a sense of belonging. Late afternoon, the Moon moves into your playful sector, and while this tends to encourage your outgoing qualities, there is a real tendency to obsess over problem areas now. Your thinking is sharp but perhaps too much for your own good tonight! You are honing in on motivations and nuances, and you’re inclined to investigate, and this work well for your practical affairs but more personal conversations can quickly grow complicated. You may be doubting someone, and it can be difficult to break out of a defensive interplay.
Pisces
The morning is excellent for making connections with people, ideas, or information you need to advance your work, dear Pisces, and even to grow a relationship or improve a bond. Watch, however, for a tendency to drop the ball in a relationship, as someone may feel like they are putting in more effort than you. It can be tempting to back off or escape pressures now, but this can make a matter worse. Mercury in your partnership sector improves your ability to reason things out with others, but a challenging aspect with Pluto can point to overthinking things — a strong tendency tonight. Talking things through is great for you now, but not if you get too hung up on the details of what’s said.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes
BALANCE OF SIGNS
TAURUS STRONG
Stable and enduring, strong values, unyielding, earthy, acquisitive, strong desires. Can be stuck, stubborn, overly possessive, self-indulgent.
VIRGO STRONG
Meticulous, discriminating, pure, practical, health conscious, hard working. Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
EARTH STRONG
We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.
AIR WEAK
We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.
WATER WEAK
There may be some insensitivity or lack of empathy now. We may be out of touch with what we’re feeling or with our emotional needs. We may be tougher than usual now, and more inclined to follow mental or practical considerations than we are to listen to our intuition.
BALANCE OF MODES
MUTABLE STRONG
We are flexible, adaptable, willing, open to change, and possibly flighty or nervous.
LUNAR PHASE: DISSEMINATING
Moon 135 to 90 degrees behind the Sun.
Sharing our knowledge with the world is a major motivation at this stage. We believe we have gained much knowledge and wisdom through our experiences, and want to ensure others have the benefit as well.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on September 11th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).
THE MOON
THE MOON IN TAURUS
This is a time for settling in, establishing and maintaining routines, and consolidating existing projects. We are building and developing. We crave predictability, stability, and security. This time favors ongoing projects and activities more than new ones.

Sabian Symbol: A mature woman reawakened to romance.

This a time for dreaming rather than important decision-making. It’s a good time to pay special attention to dreams and inspiration. Clarity may not be with us, but we probably don’t need it right now. It’s difficult to know for certain what we want, as we may be wavering. Confusion about a relationship or idealizing a person could figure strongly now.
TRINE PLUTO Orb 2°10′ Separating
You are a powerful person with strong leadership abilities. You know when to be assertive and when to compromise. You are able to apply yourself to the job at hand.
OPPOSITION CHIRON Orb 7°48′ Applying
We can feel especially sensitive to criticism or fear rejection now, or could struggle with a situation where we may need to humble ourselves. People or circumstances may seem to be exposing or playing on our vulnerabilities. This can be an opportunity to recognize problem areas that need work, however.
MERCURY
MERCURY IN VIRGO
You have a discriminating mind, and can be critical and analytical. You can also become obsessed with detailed knowledge. This may be to your detriment in daily life, although it is very beneficial for doing any kind of research. You like to be precise in your communications with others.

SATURN
SATURN IN SAGITTARIUS
Saturn in Sagittarius asks us to take on the responsibility of living according to our personal truths and principles, and to be loyal to these. This is a time for turning a critical eye to those beliefs and principles that don’t accurately reflect our authentic selves.

TRINE URANUS Orb 6°30′ Applying
You have a talent for investigation. You look at new ideas and are able then to put them into action. In business you achieve much in your own independent way.
SQUARE CHIRON Orb 5°29′ Applying
There can be fears now of not being competent or effective enough to meet our responsibilities, or we could find it hard to strike out on a unique path, again due to fears or insecurities. The desire to break from the status quo is strong, but we may not have the necessary confidence to do so. We may have difficulties empathizing with others and understanding ourselves.
