[Fate & Free Will ] Astrology for the Week of September 8 - 14

Eclipse season is essentially an astrological hurricane.

Think of yesterday’s first eclipse as the leading edge of the eclipse hurricane, the period between eclipses like the eye of the hurricane, and the second eclipse like the second half of an eclipse hurricane. 

This week we are in the eye of the eclipse hurricane. It’s nice, but a bit unsettled. You’ll be tempted to clean up and assess, especially this week, because the weather is so much calmer. 

That’s fine, you can get a lot done this week. Just remember that the storm isn’t over.

Monday 09/08

• ☽ ☌ ♄ at 29° 27‘ Pisces | 1:43pm
• ☽ V/C |1:43pm - 2:37pm Eastern
• ☽ ▻ Aries | 2:37pm 
• ☽ ☌ ♆ at 01° 09‘ Aries  |  4:32pm 
• ☽ at 01° 27‘ Aries ✳ ♅ at 01° 27‘ Gemini |5:02pm
• ☽ at 01° 38‘ Aries ✳ ♇ at 01° 38‘ Aquarius | 5:21pm

Monday you (or the people around you) might be dealing with an eclipse hangover from all of the disruptions this weekend but once the Moon moves into Aries at 2:37 pm eastern, clear skies become visible.

The rest of the day runs more smoothly, making it obvious what needs attention.

• Best for: Finishing out tasks without overthinking, cutting through delays, making quick calls and moving on.
• Potential Challenges: Low patience, leftover exhaustion, jumping in so fast that mistakes pile up.

Tuesday 09/09

• ☽ at 18° 28‘ Aries △ ♀︎ at 18° 28‘ Leo | 9:06pm
• ☽ at 19° 26‘ Aries □ ♃ at 19° 26‘ Cancer | 10:42pm 

Tuesday is audacious, vivacious, and gregarious. The day runs on spark and overreach. Confidence and charm come easy, but so does pushing things too far, whether that’s overspending, overeating, or overpromising. 

The only caveat is that exciting can tip into “a bit much” before you even realize it.

• Best for: Going after what you want, enjoying attention, making bold moves.
• Potential Challenges: Overspending, exaggerating, going further than intended

Wednesday 09/10

• ☽ at 21° 59‘ Aries ☍ ♂︎ at 21° 59‘ Libra |  2:53am 
• ☽ V/C | 2:53am - 4:03pm Eastern 
• ☽ ▻ Taurus | 4:03pm Eastern 
• ☽ at 01°36‘ Taurus  □ ♇ 01°36‘ Aquarius  | 6:42pm Eastern
• 🌖 Waning Gibbous Moon | 9:58pm Eastern

Wednesday is a lot less boisterous but not necessarily less intense. Tempers could be closer to the surface and doing “whatever it takes” might be the default approach to challenges. 

That could look like determination and hard work or hostility and manipulation.

• Best for: Determined effort, pushing through tough tasks, showing stamina under pressure.
• Potential Challenges: Quick tempers, manipulative behavior, turning pressure into conflict.

Thursday 09/11

• ☽ at 18° 21‘ Taurus △ ☿ at 18° 21‘ Virgo  | 10:18pm Eastern

Thursday is the full embodiment of Virgo season. Its steady, meticulous, conscientious, and quiet luxury all wrapped up with an autumnal bow. 

• Best for: Careful planning, tasks that need accuracy, conscientious decisions.
• Potential Challenges: Getting stuck on minor points, overanalyzing, being overly critical.

Friday 09/12

• ☽ at 19° 40‘ Taurus △ ☉ at 19° 40‘ Virgo |  12:29am Eastern

• ☽ at 21° 11‘ Taurus □ ♀︎ at 21° 11‘ Leo | 2:59am Eastern
• ☉ at 19° 48‘ Virgo ✳ ♃ at 19° 48‘ Cancer | 3:30am Eastern

• ☽ at 01° 35‘ Gemini △ ♇ at 01° 35‘ Aquarius | 8:17pm Eastern

Friday nights are often stereotyped as date nights. In part this is because it is the day of Venus and she rules all the fun lovely love things. But that doesn’t mean the astrology is always the most conducive to romance or social gatherings on Friday nights.

But occasionally, the stars align (so to speak). It’s a social and productive day that merges into a chatty evening with expansive potential. 

• Best for: Social plans, productive teamwork, conversations that open doors.
• Potential Challenges: Small clashes in taste or priorities, overcommitting, overpromising.

Saturday 09/13

• ☉ ☌ ☿ at 20° 54‘ Virgo  | 6:51am - 6:51am Eastern

Saturday (maybe even Friday evening) don’t be surprised if you suddenly find greater clarity within yourself, in a conversation, or regarding a conundrum you’ve been noodling. 

• Best for: Sorting through details, making clear choices, tackling work that needs accuracy.
• Potential Challenges: Talking in circles, overexplaining, nitpicking until nothing feels finished.

Sunday 09/14

• 🌗 Last Quarter Moon |  6:32am Eastern
• ☽ at 21° 52‘ Gemini □ ☉ at 21° 52‘ Virgo | 6:32am Eastern
• ☽ at 22° 52‘ Gemini □ ☿ at 22° 52‘ Virgo | 8:16am Eastern
• ☽ at 23° 58‘ Gemini ✳ ♀︎ at 23° 58‘ Leo | 10:09am Eastern
• ☽ at 24° 52‘ Gemini △ ♂︎ at 24° 52‘ Libra | 11:41am Eastern
• ☽ at 28° 59‘ Gemini □ ♄ at 28° 59‘ Pisces | 6:46pm Eastern
• ☽ V/C | 6:46pm - 8:30pm Eastern
• ☽ ▻ Cancer | 8:30pm Eastern
• ☽ at 00° 59‘ Cancer □ ♆ at 00° 59‘ Aries | 10:12pm Eastern

Sunday is another active day but there might be a few more conflicts bookending the productivity. It’s still a pretty delightful end to the calm center between eclipse insanity and a great time to prep for the more eventful week to come.

Until next time, my wish for you is a feeling of peace with who and where you are. - Robin💋
