September 2024 Horoscopes

STAR OF THE MONTH

VIRGO

23 AUGUST – 22 SEPTEMBER

It’s your happy birthday New Moon, Virgo, bringing you a deeply personal reset. You feel the winds of change stirring, blowing in visions of exotic locations and far-off realities. While your situation is shipshape, is it time to rock the boat? There’s an emotional high tide in a key relationship. For some, this will mean an important partnership ends and a public change in your relationship status. For others, treasures will be left ashore, offering gifts to be discovered together for years to come. Be gentle with yourself and whoever else is involved.

LIBRA

23 SEPTEMBER – 22 OCTOBER

The New Moon brings a spontaneous break from the ghosts of the past and the opportunity to turn the page to a fresh chapter. Be compassionate and forgiving with yourself as you release yourself from old burdens. You have the power to free yourself. The Lunar Eclipse reveals something about your health and wellbeing that perhaps you’ve been doing your best to ignore.

SCORPIO

23 OCTOBER – 21 NOVEMBER

Make a wish at this New Moon, and exciting adventures are sure to follow. Friends and partners are more amusing than usual and could surprise you – even despite your Scorpio super sleuthing! I know control is your middle name, but this could be fun. Relations with children, pleasure and creativity take a (temporarily) dark turn as the Moon is eclipsed.

SAGITTARIUS

22 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER

You’ll be browsing job listings online and flirting with recruiters on LinkedIn before I say, “New Moon in your career sector”. You are itching to change your daily routine in that ever-elusive search for work/life balance. The Lunar Eclipse gives you a strong preview of changes on the domestic front. Perhaps it’s time you put some plans in place to make that sea change a reality.

CAPRICORN

22 DECEMBER – 19 JANUARY

There’s a low, rumbling restlessness urging you to shake up the inevitabilities of life and create a sense of spaciousness around the New Moon. Booking a weekend away or feeding your mind nutritious ideas will offer temporary satiety, but deeper nourishment is required. Some say writer’s block is a myth, but it’s an idea that has captivated (and paralysed) wordsmiths for generations.

AQUARIUS

20 JANUARY – 18 FEBRUARY

The New Moon looks exciting for doing your taxes or refinancing your loans – even more exciting if you can convince someone to do it for you. Intriguing conversations commence with key partnerships. You should also watch for shifting family and home dynamics. Your Lunar Eclipse looks like that awkward moment at the end of a lovely restaurant dinner with friends when the waiter says you can’t pay individually.

PISCES

19 FEBRUARY – 20 MARCH

A sweet New Moon in your partnership sector. Sounds romantic, right? It is – in a nerve-jangling ‘why did they just leave my last message on read and not reply’ kind of way. Keeping your blood sugar stable will help you appear casual about it. Around the Lunar Eclipse, other people are more confusing than usual – or you are confusing to others. That’s how confusing it is.

ARIES

21 MARCH – 20 APRIL

The New Moon offers a perfect review of your (un)healthiest habits and the opportunity to experiment with cutting-edge wellness science because why not?! Your body keeps the score, though, so watch for unexpected reactions. An allergic rash from a genetically modified superfood doesn’t help you stay low profile. Despite your best efforts, people notice you, and relationships seem draining.

TAURUS

21 APRIL – 20 MAY

Though famed for your steadfast sensibilities, you do like to surprise folks from time to time. This month’s New Moon is such a time, another little tweak to life as a Taurus. Move around the furniture to create studio space or extra family members. Friends and group affiliations could be the source of disappointment and sadness around the Full Moon Eclipse.

GEMINI

21 MAY – 21 JUNE

The New Moon looks like insomnia. You want to curl up under the blankets in the comfort of your home, but there’s an undercurrent of agitation spooking the Sandman. Journaling about your perfectly rational fears might help. You could unearth a genius idea during the process. Your career looks brim-full, and you could be fighting back public tears around the Lunar Eclipse.

CANCER

22 JUNE – 22 JULY

Innovative ideas to make (or spend) money land around the New Moon. While the impulse will be to run with them immediately, given eclipse season is imminent, it’s best to take a methodical approach. Talk to a few wise friends; collaboration is also a possibility. You’re fired up and feeling extra emotional around the Lunar Eclipse. The need to travel arises, but it looks bittersweet, like a grey rather than silver-lined cloud. Perhaps it’s the deep desire to be in two places at once? Your dreams meet with reality imperfectly – but take heart that there’s a connection.

LEO

23 JULY – 22 AUGUST

You are hitting a personally defined limit on what you are willing to do in service of your career and, more particularly, the income it generates. Issues of freedom and integrity are sensitised around the New Moon. Money is still incoming but there’s certainly financial friction around the Lunar Eclipse. You want to go places, see the sites, and experience life’s pleasures, but a delay or restriction must be negotiated with another party. It may just be a timing issue, so don’t be a drama llama, and call the whole thing off just yet.
