Astrology for September 2014

Music of the Spheres

Astrological Insights by Susan Heinz

September 2014, 

1.Jupiter and Venus

Before the light touches the day into birdsong Venus and Jupiter hang like a promise to mankind in the predawn hours, encouraging us to hold the dream of hope, peace, and beauty. Gradually moving further apart, Venus disappears on the 18th, returning in December as an evening star. The time of Virgo is upon us, the time of harvest, of slowing our pace to reflect and discern, to carefully plan what comes next, and to ground ourselves. Thoughtful of the little things we do, making sacred each act toward a positive harvest, Virgo is the sign of mindfulness, humbleness, and conscientiousness.  Remember your vision and don’t loose the forest for the trees. What needs to be digested before moving on to the changing seasons?

2.full_moon_water_640The Harvest Moon, the moon the closest to the Autumn Equinox, illuminates on September 8th. Because the successive moonrises are shorter in time than the rest of the year, for several nights the moonlit nights seem brighter than normal. Enjoy these nights between the 7th and the 10th. This is the Pisces full moon, a time of great sensitivity to world events and situations in our daily lives. At this moon, balance the ideal with the real, the imaginative dream with the practical, and the poetic with the every day.

3.Year of the Horse by S.Heinz

The visionary thrust of this time is a changing of the global paradigm, to see ourselves as one humanity, on a precious, intelligent Earth. Those who can carry and act from this broad view become the bridge into a new age. Balanced at this edge of destruction, or disintegration, both globally, and personally, we stalk a new identity, releasing the old like worn skins falling from our eyes. In this year of the Horse, trust your intuition, honor the breaking through process even if you aren’t sure from moment to moment if you can maintain your balance with the intensity of the thundering movement. Mars leaves intense Scorpio, which has revealed that which has been repressed or hidden from view, on the 13th.   Its sojourn here has alerted us to what needs to be seen and attended to. Now Mars gallops into adventurous and philosophic Sagittarius, a time of quickening our momentum toward our goals.

4.Inspiration from fire grand trineJupiter trines Uranus stimulating the energy around and through us, to wake up, try new things, open our creative genius and bring our visionary powers into these new eyes. This is especially accented at the end of the month and into October as Mars aligns with them, forming a grand fire trine. Destructive rebellion or violent confrontation is its negative expression.

The Sun rises directly East on the morning of the Equinox, the 22nd, and the energy of the year shifts into fall. Where spring brings Aries into action, the fall opens into the need for pause and balance of Libra. The New Moon takes place on the 23rd, seed a vision for love and justice.
