Horoscopes
Aries
You can become all wound up over small problems and details, dear Aries, but your impatience with them can work in your favor today, as you also have cosmic support for following through. This is a powerful time to fix problems and take care of details so that your life runs more smoothly. You want to sink your teeth into a project and take charge. The motivation to revive an old project in a brand new way or to reorganize some area of your life can be high, and doing so can be very rewarding now. You have the power of increased mental energy with you and a real need to put your money where your mouth is. You may be dealing with irritable or contentious people in your work or environment today, however. Independent work is favored as a result.
Taurus
You’re in a creative and/or romantic period, dear Taurus, and today, you can quickly become all pumped up about an idea, project, or possibility. You may want to renew or refresh a hobby or pastime, and possibly even a romance! You enjoy high motivation to take charge and put your ideas into motion today. The energy with you now is progressive and fresh, but perhaps a little high-strung or nervous. Do watch for a tendency to speak too intellectually about a matter that requires more sensitivity, or for poking fun and joking about the same. Enthusiasm runs high to produce and move things forward. Details that you may have missed in recent days seem to be coming in full speed ahead. The Moon is in your sign, reinforcing the competitive, urgent feel to the day.
Gemini
The desire to take action on recent ideas for making improvements is strong today, Gemini, as your ruler, Mercury, forms a parallel with assertive, active Mars. Conversations about or with family or concerning past matters can figure strongly, but you don’t only want to talk about things, you want to put ideas into motion. You’re feeling productive and progressive, but perhaps a little impatient as well. You are anxious to put the negative behind you, but you could cause a bit of stir as you make efforts to do so. You have more than usual mental energy. Wit and speed are favored, although it’s important not to push this too far.
Cancer
This can be another busy day, dear Cancer, and a strong time to diversify and pick up new information or skills. An independent streak is stimulated today, and you may want to work at your own pace to avoid unnecessary obstacles or run-ins. You can be motivated to work on a project or idea and put it into motion, and this is an excellent time to throw yourself into something you love or something you need to get out of your way so that you can do what you love! You can be very enthusiastic now, anxious to make progress and fix problems. You’re not looking for approval or help, and this attitude works well for you at the moment.
Leo
This can be another strong day for business, practical affairs, and making the best use of your talents and resources, Leo. The Moon at the top of your chart keeps you on your toes — and on your best behavior — while Mars in your resources sector connects with both Mercury and Juno, and you’re ready to do what it takes to solve problems and jump hurdles, if need be, to achieve your goals. It can be easy and natural to gain others’ support and cooperation today.
Virgo
You can be pumped up to find answers and to get things done today, Virgo. While it’s possible that you could get into a heated debate or become worked up about an idea, your desire to be productive tends to win out in the end. Applying yourself to your most important priorities comes naturally now. You are likely to feel in charge and ready for action. You may do your best work today at your own pace or independently as others may only slow you down at the moment — you’re raring to go! You’re excitable but also willing to put in the work.
Libra
Mercury and Mars join forces via a parallel aspect today, Libra, and there can be a strong focus on analyzing a past or unfinished matter. You could want to do something tangible or symbolic when it comes to letting go of negative emotional energy. Think in terms of detoxing and decluttering, as you have excellent energy with you to do so. You might also find it enjoyable to work in some level of solitude now. However, this can also be a time of a personal or intimate breakthrough in a relationship. Your private life may be a lot more exciting or compelling than other life departments these days, and today is no exception!
Scorpio
This is a great time for making friends and connections, Scorpio. You may be assuming a leadership role — or taking the lead — in a group or with associates and friends. You can be particularly motivated to resolve an old problem, particularly friendship- or people-related. You might also be interested in reviving an old idea and bringing it back to life in a new way. You’re particularly excited about projects and plans, and possibly worked up about opinions and perspectives — you’re not inclined to take things lightly at the moment! Committing yourself to a goal, pet project, or cause can excite you now. Mental energy runs high, and the ability to get others on board quite effortlessly contributes to your success today.
Sagittarius
Today can be very productive, dear Sagittarius, although there can be times when you’re overexcited! You could be reworking old ideas, projects, or plans with great success. This is an excellent opportunity to honor a need to take charge of your life, and setting goals can be motivating. Career planning efforts can be worthwhile now, and you’re willing to put in the time to reach your goals, although it’s not the most patient of days. You’re making your influence felt and could readily take the lead with your ideas and plans today. This can also be a time of enthusiasm in a relationship and exciting or animated discussions.
Capricorn
You can enjoy some exciting ideas to break out of the usual routine today, dear Capricorn. You’re seeking activities that engage your mind and your spirit. You may be hungry for fresh knowledge, and you’re willing to explore new ideas more than usual. You can be inspired to do something new, dream up new plans, or revive an old project. Watch for a tendency to speak before thinking and for getting a little too wound up about an opinion or belief, although there’s nothing wrong with this in moderation. You have high energy for new ideas and interests, but you’re also completely willing to put your plans into motion.
Aquarius
This is an excellent day for mental sharpness, dear Aquarius, and you see all of the layers of a situation. Research is favored, as well as anything that requires significant mental effort, although not necessarily sustained effort! You can feel especially excited about an idea, and you can enjoy some breakthrough thinking. This is a great time to take on projects and duties that you may have let slide or avoided or to sort out financial support issues. You can be drawn to details and excited about finding solutions to problems. It can also be a good day for resolving a conflict with someone. The Moon spends the day in your home and family sector, and this encourages introspection.
Pisces
You’re bringing a stronger sense of self to a one-to-one interaction today, dear Pisces, and this works well for you. There can be a strong emphasis on taking action or putting an idea into motion regarding a relationship or with a significant other. You might find it easier to get something done if you have someone to do it with today! Conversations can be exciting or animated. Debates are possible, or there can be quite a bit going on with ideas and beliefs now, but hopefully, this serves to stimulate rather than frustrate you. This can be a great time to make plans with a partner. Your relationships can feel competitive now, but it can be of the motivating variety.

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 10th:
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.
