You’re living in the present, Taurus! As the month begins, we’re in the midst of Virgo season, which helps you focus on what matters most in your life.

If you’re single, you might decide to start dating again, and couples are focusing on rekindling the flame that brought them together in the first place.
The month starts out with a major personal revelation as Uranus Retrograde begins in your sign on September 1. You may notice that you’re not showing up authentically and you can recognize changes you want to make going forward. You’re choosing to shock others with who you are and what you share today, and you don’t mind because you’re able to embody your most aligned self. You could also have a change your mind about a personal goal you’ve been chasing after and decide to go after a new desire instead. On the same day, Pluto Retrograde re-enters Capricorn, bringing deep and possibly upsetting topics to the top of your mind. Conversations today can feel cathartic and transformative, and you’re able to have significant revelations that shift your perspective.
A New Moon in Virgo on September 2 invites you to reconnect with your childlike joy. You might return to a hobby you loved as a teen or discover a new creative interest. A new romantic relationship could also blossom, or maybe you’re exploring your relationship with desire and pleasure in a new way. Mars, the planet of anger and action, enters Cancer on September 4. The next few weeks put you in a more argumentative mood. You’re ready to defend your thoughts, ideas, and the people you love most, as well as set boundaries to protect your free time. There’s a chance for a bit of drama with BFFs, siblings, and close family members, too. You’re committing to a new form a self-expression when the Sun in Virgo locks eyes with Saturn in Pisces on September 7. Maybe you’re ready to build a website dedicated to a passion project or find more time for pursing what you enjoy. You could also reach a limit within a situationship or need to address simmering resentment in a friendship or collaborative partnership. Communicating your expectations may feel uncomfortable, but it will help create a more solid foundation.

You’re able to problem-solve with ease on September 14 when Venus in Libra links up with Jupiter in Gemini.

You could also welcome some sort of exciting change in your daily routine that makes work feel more exciting, like traveling for work or taking on a project you’re passionate about.
A Full Moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 17 may help bring a dream to life. This is a karmic time to connect with people through networking and for changes to unfold in your friendships and communities. New mentors or friends could enter your life, or perhaps you’re distancing yourself from connections that no longer feel aligned. You could also learn news that feels lucky or connect with someone who wants to help further along one of your ideas or goals.
The Sun enters Libra and the fall equinox takes place on September 22, and your daily life picks up!

You’ll need to find a healthy balance between work and play over the next few weeks. On the same day, Venus in Libra bumps into Pluto in Capricorn and important conversations take place.

Setting boundaries and calling out toxic people may be necessary. Later in the day, Venus, the planet of connection, enters Scorpio. This infuses more harmony and ease into your one-on-one connections. Couples could discuss the future, get engaged, or choose to move in together, while singles may find someone they want to commit to. Professionally, this also brings more work opportunities your way.
Mercury, the planet of communication, enters Libra on September 26, making your schedule even busier than usual. If you’re feeling burned out, this is a reminder from the universe to slow down!

Conversations over the next few weeks can feel a bit more annoying and petty conflicts pop up. The month ends with a realization about how you can change your behaviors to better support yourself when the Sun in Libra teams up with Mercury in Libra on September 30. You can kick a bad habit or find a solution to a pesky problem that’s left you feeling stressed.
